Chapter 022 | Can’t Sleep Without Your Hug

Jenny bit her lip and found herself minding Barret’s answer very much.

She didn’t want much.

Even once, she would be satisfied if Barret would refuse Laura for her.

Soon, Barret’s voice came from the phone.

“Mom, take care of her for me and I’ll be right back after I finish my

business.”

“Barret, you must be clear that Jenny is your wife. I order you immediately…”

Before Lillian could finish her sentence, Barret hung up.

“This bastard, I’ll teach him a lesson when he comes back.”

Jenny’s nails were almost pinched into the flesh, but she didn’t seem to feel the pain.

She was really still the one who had been abandoned.

Between her and Laura, Barret seemed to have made a choice without even thinking about it.

She expected too much, just like a fool.

She should have known the answer before, but she still hoped Barret could be back for her, ending up letting

herself down once again!

Seeing Jenny in a depressed mood, Lillian took her hand, “When Barret comes back, I will teach him a lesson.

Don’t think too much right now. Rest upstairs.”

“Okay.”

At this time, the knock at the door sounded again.

Jenny hurriedly said, “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll be fine after a rest lying down. Many guests are waiting for you

outside, so hurry up and go.”

“Okay, I will go downstairs first. Send someone to tell me if something happens.”

“Okay.” Jenny nodded obediently.

After Lillian left, Jenny let all the servants in the room go out as well.
