Chapter 224 Jerome was able to guess the reason behind Mikaylaâs furrowed brows.
He called Mike and ordered him to buy some digestive pills and stomach medicine at any nearby pharmacy.
Mikayla couldnât help but be reminded of her previous life.
She occasionally had gastric pain from excessive eating Jerome was home one night, and she was bringing some milk over to him when the pain suddenly struck her.
Her face paled, she almost spilled the milk. He didnât even bother to ask what happened. Instead, he reprimanded her to get out of his room.
Yet, Jerome noticed her discomfort when barely made a sound earlier. He even took the initiative to buy her medicine.
Well, it was indeed possible for men to learn how to be caring. Theyâd only use carelessness as an excuse a lack of love.
In fact, Mikayla did notice the change in his attitude. He did care much more for her compared to her previous life.
Though she was firm about the divorce, she no longer felt the need to hate him. He didnât turn a blind to Kylieâs schemes, and he care about her.
âWhatâs wrong? Are you still feeling uncomfortable? Do you to go to the hospital?â Jerome approached her and asked.
She shook her head, replying, âNo.â
Just then, she saw Mike walking out.
He was wearing a jacket as he held onto his car keys. She presumed that he was about to go to the pharmacy for her medicine.
Mr. Ashford,â she called out him.
Mike crumbled when he saw Mikayla.
He vividly remembered how hostile Jerome looked yesterday when he was reporting to him.
Heâd racked his brains, desperately trying to recall every single thing heâd done ever since he entered the company. Nonetheless, his effort to find out how he offended Jerome was in vain.
It wasnât until Jerome finally asked him, âWhat will happen if you were hit by a wine bottle?â
Although heâd felt bewildered and answered guardedly. âIâll⦠be injured â
âWill the whoâs trying to shield you from the bottle be injured ?â Jerome had glared at him.
2/2 Mike was utterly perplexed.
He mustered up his courage and asked, âWhoâs that person?â
âMikayla,â Jerome had replied He was completely flabbergasted and dropped all his documents in an instant.
Heâd almost over Jeromeâs tea cup as he spluttered, âMâMr. Miller, thereâs no way for Mrs. Miller to.â
âDonât you ever show up in front of her again!â Jerome snapped. âAvoid her at all costs!â
Mike had obeyed without a word.
He knew was coming to the company trip, he tried his best to recede.
He avoided the pools and several hot springs women frequented. He even hid from her during meals.
How did she still manage to see him?
âYes, Mrs. Miller?â he answered stiffly.
âGive me the car keys. Iâll head over to the pharmacy on my own, so you donât have to go in my stead, Mikayla said.
Mike chanced glance at Jerome.
Noticing that his expression darkened, he blurted out, âMrs. Miller, you arenât familiar with the roads here.
Let me go instead.â
âItâs fine. I need to buy other stuff as well,â Mikayla said.
âI can bring them back for you.â
âNo need. Iâll do so on my own.â
As Mike was pondering on whether he should insist, Jerome finally spoke, âGive me the car keys. You can leave now.â
âAlright!â
