Chapter 183 Pleasant Company
It was, of course, a good thing for Jack who finally had time to accompany his wife. However, as his assistant and secretary, Bill stayed in the hotel to attend various video conferences and handle documents and took notes.
Bill thought miserably he would apply for retirement in advance, if it continued.
The reporter, who kept an eye on Anna’s studio, departed for Paris, as soon as he heard that Anna had an activity.
If being busy traveling for work, Anna wouldn’t be so mysterious. Besides, she had gotten rid of him under his nose and returned to Paris.
It proved that Anna was indeed hiding something!
He was curious about her life, believing that there must be explosive news behind the mysterious veil.
As long as the enigmatic man hadn’t broken up with Anna, he would definitely take photos of them!

Kevin arranged his fellow to dig into the information about the girl. He still found her address in a very secretive way.
When she saw him at the gate, the girl thought it was news from Anna, thus inviting Kevin in happily.
“When will Anna come?”
Kevin coughed and smiled. “Could you please tell me the details of Mary first?”
The girl stared at him without suspicion. “I’m her best friend. Mary has been in a poor condition. When we were studying abroad, she was diagnosed as having leukemia and couldn’t find a suitable donor.”
“Later, the Blacks couldn’t wait and took her home. One time, Black took Anna to do the tests and they matched.”
The girl sighed and fiddled with her fingers. “Later, something bad happened to the Brilliant Entertainment… Mary knows Black owed Anna, thus not mentioning the donation. Indeed, the Blacks owed Anna.”
“Mary insisted not to bother Anna and completely broke up with her family.”
“I have no choice but to ask for Anna’s help. Mary cannot survive any longer. Doctors have utilized various methods, but all… I can’t just let her die.”
The girl gazed at Kevin excitedly. “Anna is already your artist, so I found you.”
She only cared about Mary’s illness, not knowing the deep water in the show business. Neither did she know the bad relationship between the Ole and Anna.
“After all, Anna had agreed. How can she suddenly change it back? Only she can save Mary!”
Hearing her words, Kevin was silent for a while and then asked, “How bad is it?” NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“It’s said that she can’t survive any longer. She becomes thinner. So does her resistance… She consumed pills every day, but…” She started sobbing before ending her words.
Kevin put his hands on his back and said softly, “Actually, I’ve told Anna. But she… seems to avoid this matter. I’ve sent the message, but there was no reply. She’s shooting a magazine in Paris. I can’t contact her.”
The girl stared at Kevin in shock. After a while, she lowered her head, as if having accepted the reality.
“I see. Thank you.”
Kevin got up, nodded, and left.
He didn’t miss the hatred in her eyes.
From her perspective, Anna was glamorous in looks but filthy in nature, like those who became famous by using tricks.
However, she would never expect that Kevin didn’t tell Anna at all.
Even if one’s survival was involved, Kevin would take revenge on Anna at all costs. He had sowed discord many times.

The Paris night was bustling.
But in a manor far from the city, Anna was cooking dinner for her beloved man. In order to let him rest and enjoy this rare holiday, Anna required him to work not longer than two hours a day and to rest at other times.
Jack didn’t expect to live such a happy life, being disciplined.
The bliss was beyond words, watching her being busy for him and following her orders to rest and eat on time…
After a sweet and delicious dinner, they leaned against each other on the sofa and admired the night.
Lying on Anna’s legs, Jack looked at her white skin, while Anna held his gaze and caressed his face. She said seriously, “I don’t want to see you in pain anymore. I can’t stand it.”
“I promise.” Jack held her hand.
He didn’t want to see her cry for him again.
“I won’t let you endure the pain alone in the office!”
Jack sat up, gently embraced Anna, and promised emphatically, “I won’t let you worry about me again. I promise.”
With Anna, his life was lit up. He wouldn’t let go of her for his life.
Being cared about felt awesome!
Anna lunged into his arms, placed her head on his chest, and took a deep breath, enjoying his unique scant. “Jack…”
“I’m here.”
Jack could be the emperor who dominated the show business, or her most intimate husband. He was willing to throw away his helmet and armor in front of her, give up his aggressive presence, show his weakness to her, and be taken care of by her… There was a game between them.
Being loved didn’t mean surrendering.
“We’ll go home when I finish the shooting tomorrow.”
Jack furrowed slightly. “I don’t think so. I followed your orders and rested these days. But do you know how many big companies want to cooperate with you, since the WM launched its advertisement? These opportunities are hard-won for you. Don’t miss them.”
Anna pouted her mouth. “But you…”
“I’m just tired, not feeble.”
Anna blinked. She was pondering, since these chances were rare. If she missed them, she didn’t know when she would be invited again.
“Then you rest with me for two more days!”
“Yes, my lady.” Jack beamed and rubbed her long hair. “At home, I’ll listen to you. When we’re outside, I’ll also follow your order.”
He held the woman in his arms tightly.
No matter what happened, they could count on each other.
