Chapter 181
Accidental love
Why was the person, who was supposed to be in the airport lounge, here?
âWhere is Jack?â Anna asked.
âHeâs in the office...â Bill suddenly realized he was out for medicine, thus hurrying to put his hands behind him. But it was too late.
âIs he sick?â Anna raced inside with a frown.
âYeah, the CEO complained about headaches recently, so he let me buy some medicine.â
âRecently? When did it start? He never mentioned it at home!â Hearing it, Anna became anxious.
âProbably, he doesnât want you to be worried.â Bill felt awkward but gave the medicine to Anna. âI think the CEO must yearn to see you.â
Taking the medicine, Anna darted into the office.
Lucy and Bill stood still and exchanged glances. It was really embarrassing.
Lucy even went crimson. Coughing, she plucked up the courage to say, âThank you... for helping my brother and the passport.â
Bill blinked and nodded heavily.

In the office, Jack leaned against the black leather sofa and closed his eyes quietly, with a layer of thin sweat on his forehead. He wouldnât stop working until the pain conquered him.
âJack...â Anna called his name and rushed over.
Hearing her voice, Jack instantly opened his eyes. He endured the searing pain and put on a fine look. âWhy are you here? Shouldnât you go to the airport?â
He was too sick but tried hard to pretend to be okay. Annaâs heart ached for him.
Anna moved forward with a glimmer of worry in her eyes. She put the medicine on the table, pursed her lips, and poured a glass of water...
âTake the medicine!â
Eyeing her anxious look, Jack intended to say something but stopped at the sight of her tear-filled eyes.
âTake the medicine and youâll feel better!â
She put Jack in her arms and placed the glass on his lips.
Jack took the medicine without hesitation.
Only now did Anna feel relieved. She pecked on his forehead and then rubbed his head, letting him nestle in her arms and breathe quietly...
About ten minutes later, the pills worked, and Jack regained his spirit. He patted Anna and left her arms.
However, Anna was still worried about him, staring at him in silence.
âIâm fine... Itâs just a headache,â Jack said gently, âIâve been examined...â
âIâm scared. I donât know what I can do for you. What if...â Anna rushed into his arms. Tears trailed down her cheeks uncontrollably.
Anna could face up to everything, except for things related to Jack, which would make her lose control.
Embracing her tightly, Jack caressed her arms and comforted her.
âI donât want you to be sad. I canât control myself.â
It turned out that his body wasnât his own long before. He had to take good care of himself, not letting her worry, as her tears trailed down her cheeks into his heart.
Jack hugged her and said until Anna cooled down, âIâll do a detailed examination again in a few days and show you the result.â
Anna sobbed and held him back hard.
Jack knew it was her unique behavior, when she was thrilled or angry.
Letting her vent the anger, Jack embraced her and cajoled her, âI feel better after taking the pills. Donât worry...â
Thus Anna let go of him, but the sadness still lingered in his eyes.
Jack glanced at his watch. âYouâre out of time. Iâll drive you to the airport.â
Then he stood up. But Anna was reluctant to leave; therefore, Jack smoothed down their clothes and carried her out of the office directly.
Bill and Lucy were still sitting awkwardly. At the sight of Anna and Jack, they scooted up.
âWhat happened?â
Why were Annaâs eyes so red?
âIâll take you to the airport. Lucy, take good care of her. If anything happens, please feel free to contact me.â
Lucy nodded heavily.
On the way to the airport, Anna kept silent, only clenching Jackâs clothes tightly.
In order not to be discovered by reporters, Jack parked in an exclusive spot and signaled Lucy to take Anna out of the car.
Lucy got out of the car immediately and ran to the other side. âAnna, our jobs in Paris start to pile up. We should go. Otherwise, we wonât finish them in several days.â
Anna looked at Jack faintly and got out of the car. After taking a few steps, she said, âLucy, I still worry about him!â
Lucy then understood why Anna looked distressed. She said with a smile, âAnna, you know better than anyone else that youâre not indecisive and you wonât regret what youâve decided.â
âIâll support you, if you want to stay.â
Hearing her word, Anna turned around and ran outside immediately. Luckily, Jack hadnât left the parking lot.
Jack was stunned. âWhy do you come back? Did you leave anything?â
âNo. I just want to see the examination in person. Let Bill arrange it. Otherwise, I wonât be relieved.â
âI canât just go abroad like this. Your health is my priority.â
Jack stared at her and smiled affectionately. âOkay, letâs go to the hospital.â
How could he push away a lady who did everything for him?
Bill immediately arranged an examination. Anna stayed with Jack, until they got the test results, which said that Jack was normal and his headache was because of overwork.
âSee? Itâs not a big problem. Iâll take care of myself,â Jack said softly, holding her shoulders.

Jack would take a break as well.
Jack stroked her hair helplessly. âAre you sure?â
âBill, book two flight tickets!â Anna took him out, determined.
Jack had to agree. He couldnât say no to her.
