NovelEnglishChapter 1039
When | saw the grave look on Jordan's face, | thought h e was still angry. | said carefully, "I've read through these
documents, Mr. Fredericks. You can sign them if everything's okay."
Jordan did not look at me, nor did he say anything. He continued to read the documents in his hand.
| planned to leave after putting the documents on the table when I noticed his hand on his stomach. | recalled
the words Lally said toin the conference room and realized what was going on. He probably looked grave
because he was suffering from gastric pain, not because he was mad.
Perhaps it was because he did not have his breakfast this morning. | felt a little guilty and ran back to my seat to
pull out a few candies from my bag.
| would keep scandies in my bag and pop one into my mouth whenever | ate a salty dish. They happened to
cin handy now.
| returned to Jordan's office table and placed the candy on the table, saying, "I'm really sorry about today, Mr.
Fredericks. Have a piece of candy first. I'll g 0 and buy you sgastric medication and food for you right now."

were curved. "Lally told you?"
| pursed my lips and nodded faintly. "Lally said you have a sweet tooth and your stomach will hurt if you don't
eat in time. I'll pay attention to details like these i n the future and work hard to gain your approval."
After saying that, I looked nervously at him.
Jordan smiled slightly and said a little helplessly, " Just make sure this doesn't happen again. I'm fine. Go and
finish your work. Don’t worry about me. I'll take m y meal at noon."
His complexion was really pale. | asked worriedly," Can you hold on for that long?"
Jordan smiled slightly. "This isn't the first day it has happened. I'm already used to it. Besides, it'll be noon soon,
so a short wait makes no difference."
| nodded. "Why don’t you take scandies and drink swater first?"
When | returned to my workstation, | was still a little uneasy and thought about going to the pantry to heat u p a
glass of milk.
It just so happened that Shannon called, so | answered the call and said, "You're up pretty early."
Judging from her character, she should be sleeping until noon after staying up so late last night.
"I need your help, bestie," Shannon said seriously.
Hearing the sound of cooking on her end, | asked with a smile, "You're not thinking about sending Jordan lunch,
are you?"
"Fuck!" Shannon was astonished. "How did you know that?"
| was actually right.
Shannon giggled mischievously. "Since you guessed i t, then I'll directly ask for your help. Sendyour work
address. I'll send the food over once I'm done."
She continued after a pause, "Your company requires a n appointment beforehand, right? If so, remember to
cdown and get me."
"Sure." | was just worrying about what to eat for lunch.
"I'm hanging up, then. Ill give you a call when I'm there."
Shannon was about to hang up after saying that.
| remembered something and quickly said, "Mr.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFredericks has gastric. Bring smedicine when you cover."
Shannon smiled at once. "You're the best, bestie."
After hanging up the phone, | got ready to serve Jordan swarm milk.
| bumped into Lally who cin to get swater.
She seemed a little tired, so | asked with concern, "You didn't sleep well last night, Cally?”
Cally nodded and said a little helplessly, "I went hlate last night and saw my child playing instead of doing
his homework. Hence, | supervised him as he finished his homework. | didn't go to bed until the latter half of the
night. | don’t know what the hell the child's father is up to either. | really regret having a child now. | feel like I'm
aging really fast after having a child. Look, do you see a few more lines around my eyes?"
She leaned closer to showafter saying that.
| laughed. "What grade is your child in?"
"He'll be in fifth grade soon, the period I'm most worried about."

| subconsciously said, "My son will soon be in elementary school as well."
