Too Much to Bear My Love

Chapter 825

Chapter 825 Relapse

Jennifer was driving and feeling a little upset. At the intersection, she made a turn and went in the direction of Carter’s office.

When she arrived, she walked in straight. She had worked there in the past, so the receptionist did not stop her.

Jennifer took the elevator and went upstairs. Carter’s secretary was shocked to see her, but she was still very polite to Jennifer. “Ms. Larson, are you here to look for Mr. Scott? He is still in a meeting. Why don’t you wait for him in his office? Mr. Scott has told me that you are allowed to wait in his office if you ever show up.”

When Jennifer heard that, a gloomy look flashed across her eyes.

After that, she went into the office to wait for Carter.

Although she had been in that same office many times, it felt different this time around.

For some reason, things were not the same anymore.

When Carter finished his meeting, his secretary informed him that Jennifer was waiting for him in his office. He was delighted to hear that and rushed in immediately.

When he saw the person he had been missing for a long time sleeping on the couch like an abandoned child, he was heartbroken. He walked over, got down on his knees, and studied the harmless-looking Jennifer while she was fast asleep.

A smile appeared on his face. After Laura became ill, Jennifer acted like a ferocious porcupine. Once in a while, she would attack him with some sharp words.

In the past, Jennifer was always trying to please him. She took better care of him than his own mother. Back then, her care and concern annoyed him, and he could not wait for her to get lost. However, now that Jennifer treated him harshly, he ended up being worried about her. In fact, he had been keeping an eye on her in secret just in case anything bad happened to Larson Group. He did not want her to shoulder the burdens all by herself.

Sometimes, he suspected that he might be a masochist. The more someone treated him badly, the more he cared about that person. In the past, it was Amelia. Now, it was Jennifer.

He shook his head in amusement and brushed his fingers along Jennifer’s face. Unfortunately, that woke her up.

Jennifer was still in a daze when she first opened her eyes.

It took her a few seconds before she regained full consciousness and looked into Carter’s eyes. “Are you done with the meeting?”

“It just ended. Why didn’t you give me a call and tell me you are coming? The air-conditioning here might cause you to catch a cold,” said Carter with concern.

Jennifer got up from the couch and felt a bit embarrassed.

She noticed the bandage on Carter’s hand and her eyes darkened as she asked softly, “Does your hand still hurt?”

Carter took one look at his arm and replied, “I’m fine. When I went to the construction site, a small rock fell from the top and hit me. The doctor gave me ten stitches. The stitches can be removed after a short while. Don’t worry about it.”

Jennifer pursed her lips. He’s so careless.

As Carter took note of her expression, he wanted to say something, but instead, his eyes suddenly lit up with pleasant surprise.

“Jennifer, you have come here all the way because you heard about my injury, right? Does that mean you are worried about me?” he asked hopefully before waiting for Jennifer’s reply with bated breath.
