Chapter 224
Although Vergil found it a bit inexplicable, he still made a call to inquire about it.
“Sir, it was made by the chef at home,” came the reply.
Jesse frowned, looking a bit unhappy.
“You should call Nydia and ask her,” he said.
Why don’t you do it yourself? Vergil asked in his heart.
Vergil called Julia to ask. “Sir, Missus is home around 4:30 in the afternoon.”
She only got home at 4:30? She got off the car before 2 o’clock, where did she go in the meantime?
Facing Jesse’s unhappy expression, Vergil didn’t quite understand what was going on.
He looked at the time and suddenly realized a problem. There was no bento box delivered today. But he could understand why. First, they had a fight before. Second, it was already 4:30 when she got home, and she was probably too tired to cook, or didn’t have time to do so.
“Sir, what would you like to eat for dinner?” Vergil asked.
“I’m not hungry.”
“You should eat something, or your stomach won’t be able to take it.”
“I said I’m not eating. Get out!”
You guys are fighting, why take it out on me? Vergil felt wronged. He went into his own office, feeling that it was really like living with a tiger. The boss was so unpredictable. No wonder Missus wanted to fight with him today. Did she stop making bento boxes for him in the future? She promised to make one for him as well. Did he not get to eat it?
Unconsciously, he had already walked to Nydia’s side.
Around nine o’clock in the evening, Jesse finished his work and was ready to leave. He picked up his phone and saw that there was still no message from Nydia. He looked at Vergil with a somewhat cold expression.
On the way back, Jesse’s hand pressed against his stomach, his face pale.
“Sir, are you having stomach pains?” Vergil asked.
Jesse pursed his lips and didn’t say anything.
“There are stomach medicine in the car, you should take some.” Vergil immediately went to get the medicine.
“I’m not taking it.”
“Why not?”
“Sir, stomach ache is not a small matter, you should take it, don’t harm your own body,” urged Vergil with sincere words and kind intentions.
“Let’s see when we get home.”
Why does he have to wait until he gets home?
He knew Jesse’s temperament, alright, wait until they get home.
When he arrived home, no one was waiting for him, and the two children were already asleep.
“Sir, we’re home, you should take your medicine.” Vergil coaxed the temperamental Jesse with medicine.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“I don’t want to take this stomach medicine, I want to take a different kind, go ask Nydia.” Jesse said with a serious face.
Vergil took a deep breath, put down the medicine in his hand, and went to knock on Nydia’s room door.
“Missus, are you asleep?”
Nydia walked over and opened the door. “What’s wrong?”
“Do you have any stomach medicine here? Boss’ stomach is acting up, and he’s in a lot of pain.”
“Why is his stomach hurting? Didn’t he eat?”
Vergil dared not speak.
Nydia was immediately angry, “Where is he?”
“Sitting in the living room.”
She walked out of the room in a hurry and saw Jesse with a pale face, his hand pressed against his stomach, his eyebrows furrowed, enduring the pain.
“I told you to eat, why didn’t you listen? Why do you have to torture yourself?” She was so angry that she started scolding him!
“Why are you being so fierce? I’m the one in pain, it serves me right!” Jesse was even more in pain when she scolded him as soon as she came.
“Jesse, why are you yelling? You didn’t eat and you still have the nerve to talk back?” Nydia didn’t back down and yelled back.
“The food in the company is not delicious, I don’t want to eat it!”
Jesse’s roar made Nydia burst out laughing.
