My Hus

Chapter 54

Jane tried her best to open her eyes, and she felt that all the bones in her body seemed to have been

torn apart again. The pain was unbearable.

She looked at the white walls around her. She could smell a pungent odor, and her face was

wrapped in gauze.

What was even more crazy was that one of her legs was hanging up high in the air.

She was stunned for a moment, and then she felt a big hand holding hers, and the warmth from that

palm seeped into her heart.

Then she turned around and met Dan’s eyes.

He just looked at her quietly, with complicated emotions surging in his eyes.

Worry, anger, concern, pity….

And self-blame.

He forced a smile, gently rubbed her hair, and said in a h oar se voice, “You’re finally awake.”

At the

over.

same time, Jane moved her body. But her brain was buzzing, and she felt nothing but pain all

“What happened to me?” she asked.

“Don’t you remember what happened to you? Dan held her small hand in his palm and gently stroked

it.

Jane felt her lips go dry, and her throat felt like it was burning.

Her consciousness drifted back, and she remembered everything that had happened that night.

Ben and Adam persuaded her to drink and pushed her to Hector, who then took her into his car. Then

she was unwilling to be bullied by him, so she untied the strap of her bag, strangled the driver,

and then…

She suddenly became excited and clenched her fists.

“It’s all right.” Dan comforted her softly. “It’s all over. It’s good that you’re fine.”

“Hubby.” She looked at him and called out to him, asking him to hug her.

Dan smiled and sat down beside her. He gently helped her up and carefully held her in his arms. Jane

leaned against his warm and thick chest again. When she heard the familiar heartbeat, the grievance

and fear that she had been holding back for a long time finally flowed out along with her

tears.

Seeing this, Dan was heartbroken for her and touched her little head.

“Sorry I was late,” he said in a low voice. “In fact, your colleague, Annie, sent me a message as soon

as she got off work and told me about your situation. Later, you sent me several more messages, but I

didn’t see them.”

“It’s not your fault.” Jane pursed her lips slightly and said, “I should have been prepared in advance.”

“But it’s hard to guard against schemes in the workplace.”

She was silent for a moment and felt a dull pain in her calf. She gritted her teeth and looked at her leg,

which was dangling up above.

“It’s a slight fracture.” Dan said to her, “Aside from this, the rest of the body is just scratched. It’s

already a blessing.”

“So, I won’t be able to get out of bed for a while?” Jane was stunned after hearing that.

“That’s right.” Dan chuckled. “So I’ll take care of you during this period of time.”

Jane was stunned for a moment and wondered if he was about to take care of her. She had

experienced his cooking before. If he took care of her, she would have to eat boiled vegetables every

day.

She smiled helplessly and wrapped her arms around his waist even tighter.

Dan looked down at her, and his expression gradually became serious.

After a long silence, he asked her in a low voice, “Why did you do it?”

“What?” Jane was puzzled.

“Why did you jump out of the car?” Dan asked again.

After hearing this, Jane took a deep breath and told him the whole story.

“At that time, I drank a lot. If I hadn’t overheard the conversation between Ben and Adam in advance,

maybe I would’ve…”

She bit her lip, and tears welled up in her big eyes.

“Under the circumstances, jumping out of the car was my only choice. I couldn’t just sit still and let

Hector take me to a hotel, could I?”

“But do you know how dangerous it B for you to strangle the driver’s neck from behind and jump out of

the car so rashly? What if you really fell to your death? Dan retorted her.

Jane was shocked. Then she looked up at him. The man was serious, and there was a hint of coldness

in his eyes.

Although he usually kept a straight face, it was rare for him to be so strict.

Jane felt that she had been wronged.

Could it be that she had done something wrong?

She looked at him and pouted. “Do you really want me to be taken to a hotel by another man?”

Dan said in a low voice, “I just hope you can live well!”

Jane fell silent, and her heart beat wildly.

No matter what happened, he only hoped that she could live well.

Feeling a surge of warmth in her heart, she held him gently with her small hands.

“You silly.” There was still a hint of blame in his tone as he asked, “Is innocence more important than

your life?”

She nodded firmly without hesitation.

“You….” Dan was speechless.

He glared at her, but she gave him a simple and innocent smile.

So he couldn’t do anything to her. After a long time, he sighed heavily and then said to her word by

word seriously, “Remember, your life is the most important thing at any time.

“The feudal era ended a long time ago. It doesn’t matter whether a woman is innocent or not. I’m not a

person who cares about these things.’

He held her little hands and looked at her. Ilis voice was not loud, but every word hit Jane in the

heart.

“You’re the only one I care about. I want you to live well Don’t fight head-on when you’re in danger. As

long as you can keep your life, you can exchange anything. Do you understand?” he said.

Although Jane didn’t agree, she still nodded with a smile in order to reassure him.

“Luckily nothing happened this time,” Dan looked at her meaningfully, “but are you going to let those

two go so easily?”

“Of course not!” Jane hated them as soon as Dan mentioned it.

But after a long while, she just vented her anger on her own.

Ben was one of the shareholders of the company, and Adam was the boyfriend of Ben’s niece. But she

was just an employee. What could she do to them?
