Contract Marriage: My Sweet Bossy Wife novel Chapter 140

Lorenzo put out the cigarette, threw it into the trash can and pulled Jessica into his arms. He buried in her neck, and took a deep breath.

Jessica could always bring him an infinite sense of security. She seemed to have magic and could always attract him deeply. Lorenzo couldn't tell the reason.

Across the road, a luxury car slowly stopped. As the window rolled down, Wilfred’s elegant and gentle face appeared.

But Jessica and Lorenzo didn't notice him.

Wilfred stared at the opposite side for a while, then stepped on the accelerator and drove away quickly.

"Didn't you eat yet? Is there anything you particularly want to eat?"

Lorenzo said.

"But I'm suddenly not very hungry."

Jessica said.

"You have to eat something."

Lorenzo hugged her.

"Mr. Lorenzo, come with me!"

Jessica pulled Lorenzo out of the car.

……

In the pharmacy.

"You haven't eaten the food here, have you? I just prepared an extra one today. Why don't you accompany me to have some, though you’re a little wronged by letting you eat the food in the cafeteria."

Jessica took two fast food boxes out of the thermal bag and showed them in front of Lorenzo.

"OK."

Lorenzo agreed.

Jessica asked him to eat fast food, but he felt sweet. Although Jessica didn't say anything, she knew that Lorenzo was very tired. She didn't want him to go so far to have dinner. So she prepared two fast food in advance.

Although it was fast food, the type and taste of the dishes were not inferior to in the restaurants at all. In order to make Lorenzo have a balanced diet, Jessica ordered some meat and some vegetable, all of which were Lorenzo’s favorite food. Before he came, she went to buy some soup.

"Mr. Lorenzo, the food in Capttar Medical School is famous among the many universities in Ameriart. Many people come here because they want to taste the food here. It’s not bad than any hotels under your name. You can try it for yourself."

Jessica was afraid that Lorenzo would not believe it, so she forked some shrimps to put them on his lips, and fed him.

Lorenzo was in no mood to eat because of the complicated and trivial matters. He leaned against the back of the chair. Jessica patiently fed him spoon by spoon.

"Mr. Lorenzo, is it okay?"

Jessica smiled and looked at Lorenzo.

"It tastes good."

Lorenzo nodded in satisfaction.

"Come on, eat a few more bites of crispy lamb chops. You work so hard. Eat more."

Jessica said, and gave Lorenzo another spoon of crispy lamb chops.

"You’re so enthusiastic today. Is there any physical work tonight?"

Lorenzo raised his eyebrows slightly at her, and couldn't help laughing.

"Others always say that you have very cold personality. But when you’re joking, you have no boundaries."

Jessica blushed. She gave him another spoonful of food to stop him speaking.

Lorenzo bit the food and put it into her mouth. They two flirted like this, and finally finished the food.

"It's very late. Let's go home."

Lorenzo said.

"Recently, I'm researching a new stuff. It’s a little complicated, so I have to come here very early every day. It's too troublesome to go back and forth. If you don't mind, you can stay with me here."

Jessica said.

"Is there a place to sleep?"

Lorenzo asked.

"Capttar Medical School has high-end apartments, which are specially for employees. Although it can't compare to the villa you live in, the conditions are not bad."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go now."

Lorenzo directly carried Jessica and walked away from the pharmacy.

In the apartment.

After they two finished washing, Jessica meekly leaned on Lorenzo's strong chest.

"It's just the two of us now. Can you tell me why you're unhappy today?"

Jessica's voice was soft.

"Today, my little aunt came back, so I went back to see her."

Lorenzo hugged her.

"Little aunt? I've never heard you mention it, but why didn't you tell me about such an important thing? The elders come here. As your wife, how can I not show up? You deliberately hid it from me and said you went back to get some documents. What did you mean?"

Jessica looked at him in surprise, and shot him a look.

"There is no need to see her. She came back to make trouble for you. She despised your junior high school diploma, and even introduced a girl to my half-brother. I heard that that girl was a talent."

Lorenzo didn't plan to hide it from her.

As for what he said about the junior high school diploma was another matter entirely...

"I knew that all of you are the same. You all look down on me."

Jessica pouted angrily, struggled to get up from his arms, sat aside and ignored him.

"Why are you angry? Since you already said that I am a bad person, if I don't do anything bad, won't I live up it?"

Lorenzo smiled, gently licking Jessica's ears.

He did so when he said so. His big hands began to go down.

"Mr. Lorenzo, stop."

Jessica was so frightened that she hurriedly stopped it.

"You think too much. My aunt only hates me from beginning to end. It has nothing to do with you. Only Grandma cares about me."

Lorenzo made Jessica turn around to face him. Then he kissed on her smooth forehead.

"Actually, my mother and stepmother were cousins. My stepmother, Connie, is a real lady, while my mother was just an illegitimate daughter. My mother was fortunate enough to come back to her family, because my stepmother needed blood."

"One was healthy and the other was in such poor health. Not only could the stepmother not be able to see people easily, but she had to live in a sterile room for a long time."

"The Armstrong family always has to attend some business events. My mother took the place of the stepmother to attend. Because they two look very similar. Besides, few people have seen what my stepmother looks like, so our family hid it from everyone."

"My mother was very talented and a gifted designer. At the age of 20, she won the prize in the construction industry."

"Everyone's fate seems to have been arranged in advance. At that time, my mother's reputation was world-renowned and she was peerless."

Lorenzo fell into deep thought. This was the first time he took the initiative to mention his mother, and he was getting choked up.

Jessica's curiosity was strongly aroused. Such a peerless beauty must be a legend!

"Your mother must be so strong."

Jessica clearly remembered what Lorenzo once said.

Lorenzo said that when his mother was about to give birth, his father forced her to take abortion pills.

His mother studied medicine in her early years. In order to save her child, she did not hesitate to sacrifice herself. When the conditions were bad and there was no anesthesia, she opened her own abdomen with a knife to save her child.

"Actually, my mother was a little woman. She was very gentle. She had lived a miserable life and was always the substitute of others. In addition, my mother was very introverted, and she had only one close friend in her life."

"So that’s it…"

Jessica seemed to be a little jealous.

"If I remember correctly, her daughter is your childhood sweetheart!"

Before Jessica could react, she was pulled into Lorenzo's arms.
