"!"
Chloe Simpson was startled, completely taken aback.
After last night’s hysterical tornt, she thought Alexander Johnson would do sothing to her again this ti.
Unexpectedly, he asked such a question.
"From now on, without my orders, you are not allowed to leave the bed!"
Alexander Johnson didn’t care what Chloe Simpson thought or how she reacted; he simply enforced the command.
"What? Alexander Johnson, isn’t this too much? What do you an without your orders? I’m not allowed to leave the bed? Tomorrow’s Monday; I have to go to the hospital to work."
Chloe exploded. Why wasn’t she allowed to leave the bed?
And tomorrow was Monday; she had to work!
Otherwise, it would be difficult to reschedule her shifts, and the hospital was quite busy.
"I’ll take care of it; you don’t have to go to work."
Alexander Johnson glanced at her, said this, and then turned to leave.
"You!"
Chloe got up and tried to rush over, but because she had a high fever last night, received an IV drip, sweated, and hadn’t eaten anything, she felt weak and dizzy.
She had no choice but to sit back down on the bed.
Soon, the door opened again, but it was Jack Woods who entered, not Alexander Johnson.
Chloe was about to speak, but upon seeing Jack Woods, she swallowed her words.
"Miss Simpson, I brought breakfast; I’ll put it here for you. The family doctor said yesterday that you should rest in bed well for the next two days and have a full checkup at the hospital when you fully recover."
"Also, if you’re feeling weak, wait a bit before eating. Nanny King will be here soon; she’ll be taking care of you for the next couple of days."
After placing the breakfast on the table, Jack Woods said this and turned to leave.
"..."
Chloe didn’t respond, but she instantly thought of the instructions Alexander Johnson just gave her, telling her not to leave the bed.
Could it be because of the family doctor’s advice yesterday?
Was it all for her own good?
Haha, thinking of this, Chloe couldn’t help but find it absurd.
Alexander Johnson had never been anything but forceful and demanding towards her, so how could he possibly care about her well-being?
After all, he was the Eldest Young Master of the Johnson Family, Crown Prince of the Capital Circle. Why would he consider soone like her, a married woman?
To Alexander Johnson, she’s always been just a tool for relief and excitent.
As for the breakfast Jack Woods brought, she still needed to eat it; after all, she couldn’t ignore her own health.
As a professional nurse, she knew it was important to replenish energy promptly when sick.
Eating well, drinking well, and sleeping well were the strongest weapons against illness at this ti.
Although she indeed lacked strength in her hands, Chloe still opened the breakfast and ate it bite by bite.
Nanny King, the servant Jack Woods ntioned, arrived quickly. She had just eaten a few bites when there was a knock on the door.
"Miss Simpson, hello, I’m Nanny King. Is it convenient for to co in now?"
"Yes, you can co in."
Chloe frowned and nodded; she only had conflicts with Alexander Johnson, and there was no need to make things difficult for others.
Moreover, with Alexander Johnson’s personality, he might trouble the hired servants over her actions.
"Oh, okay."
Nanny King nodded, opened the door, and saw Chloe eating. She quickly ran over with great tact.
"Miss Simpson, let help, let do it. You’re sick right now and must be feeling weak."
"It’s okay, eating... I can manage myself."
This made Chloe feel embarrassed; except when she was too sick to get up as a child and was fed porridge by her mother.
Besides that, she had never been taken care of like this, especially not at her age now.
"Ah, Miss Simpson, please don’t be polite with . The Young Master asked to take good care of you, and I must make sure you are well looked after. If there’s anything I miss, the Young Master would be heartbroken, wouldn’t he?"
"Heartbroken?"
Nanny King’s words made Chloe almost spit out the mouthful of food she had just taken.
Alexander Johnson would be heartbroken for her?
"Yes! What? Miss Simpson, you don’t believe it? I tell you, the Young Master has never brought any woman back. Neither to this apartnt nor his Northern Suburb villa."
"No, I have been with the Young Master for many years, taking care of him since he was young. In so many years, there’s never been any woman by his side. You’re the first one!"
"Oh, you are now the treasure of the Young Master’s heart; nothing can happen to you. Rest assured, I’ll take good care of you these two days, you won’t need to do a thing..."
Nanny King spoke decisively, but Chloe could no longer hear her words inwardly.
Her mind just kept repeating one fact.
She was Alexander Johnson’s first woman!
