Chapter 004
She deliberately spent the whole afternoon in the office. After finishing her work, she looked up and saw it was only 3:00 pm, far from getting off work.
Having nothing to do, Camille summoned up the courage to pick up the phone and dial the number of Jerome’s office.
After the promotion, her office was also moved next to the president’s office.
Her own office.
The phone was quickly answered and she instantly became tense, “Sir? It’s me ……”
“Arrange the documents of all projects from last year to now and bring them to me before getting off work.” The man’s cold voice came over the microphone, seemingly not caring about her at all.
“All the projects?” Camille was stunned.
Is this a job that can be done by only one person?!
“Do you have any more questions?” He asked coldly.
“No, no more.” Camille held the microphone. How dare she say anything?
She was the one who offended Jerome at first. Who else could she blame?
After hanging up the phone, she was totally depressed.
All projects…
It is impossible to get off work on time today.
…
She worked until the evening, not even having the time to drink water. Finally, before nine o’clock, she arranged the documents of all projects.
Camille stretched, put all the documents in order quickly, and held them to Jerome’s office, only to find that the office had long been empty.
“I should have guessed it would be like this. I’m the only one working overtime…”
She muttered, put documents on his desk, and then went back to her office. Turning off her computer and grabbing her bag, Camille left the office tiredly.
There were few people on the streets at night. She rubbed her sore back and took out her cellphone to hail a taxi.
But after waiting under the street light for nearly twenty minutes, there was still no one to take the order.
“What bad luck!”
Stomping angrily, she had no choice but to go to the bus stop nearby to wait for the bus.
Soon after, there was a beam of harsh light suddenly behind her. She looked back, finding it was a black car.
The car simply stopped beside her and the window was rolled down. Frowning at the woman outside, Jerome didn’t expect her to work overtime until now, even though he was the one who asked her to finish that task.
But what shocked him the most was that he had been waiting for her until now…
“Get in the car.” Jerome didn’t want to talk much about this and ordered coldly.
“You, why are you still here?” Camille was stunned. He should have gotten off work a long time ago. How come he is still here?
Could it be that he is waiting for me?
“I repeat, get in the car.” Jerome tapped the wheel impatiently, not wanting to waste time with her.
“Okay.” This commanding tone made her flinch. Not daring to say anything more, she hurriedly got into the car and sat in the passenger seat, “Thank you very much, or I would have to wait here for the car.”
Jerome didn’t heed her words, “Put your seat belt on.”
“Okay.” Camille nodded in a rush.
Her beloved man not only became her husband, but was willing to wait for her to take her home from work. This was something she never dared to think about before, but now it happened.
Had her dream come true?
Camille clenched her hands, not daring to breathe hard for fear that she would wake up suddenly from this beautiful dream.
The car was not fast, and the heat was on inside.
Somehow, Camille suddenly felt uncomfortable. Her rosy face now looked a little pale, and her forehead was in a cold sweat.
Jerome, sitting beside her, quickly noticed that something was wrong and then pulled over, “What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing, I think it may be stomach problems.” She weakly put her hands over her stomach, “We can go back. I’ll eat something and take my medicine. I’ll be fine then.”
She had long had stomach problems. Occasionally she would suffer from the attack, but she had long gotten used to it over the years.
Because the pain was getting stronger, she subconsciously bent her body slightly to try to minimize the pain as she spoke.
Jerome frowned deeply, “We’ll go to the hospital.”
The car quickly turned around. Camille was so painful that she could only curl up in the seat. But looking at the serious expression on Jerome’s handsome face, she felt that her heart was full of sweetness.
With Jerome sitting by her side, what does she have to fear?
In the hospital, the doctor did a physical examination for Camille, with a slightly serious expression, “Miss Kent, you should have had a stomach problem for a period, but luckily it’s not too serious, you just need to pay attention to your diet.”
“The reason why you have a sudden stomach problem tonight is probably because you didn’t have a regular and proper diet, by the way, Miss Kent, what did you eat today?”
What did you eat? Camille looked at Jerome embarrassedly, during her lunch break, she was suddenly startled by him, and then she worked overtime until the evening, how could she care about eating?
“Doctor, is there a cure for this stomach problem?”
Jerome frowned, for some reason, seeing the woman’s pale face, felt a little guilty in his heart.
“It’s a little difficult.” The doctor shook his head, “Miss Kent’s stomach problem is not serious after all, as long as you pay attention to a healthy diet, take regular ration, and nourish your stomach for a period of time.”
After the doctor explained a few words, just let Camille rest here first, and he went to ask the nurse to help get the medicine.
The door of the ward was closed, and the atmosphere suddenly became stiff.
She clenched her hands unnaturally, turned her head and saw that it was already dark outside the window, she couldn’t help saying, “The doctor said that I’ll have to hang a drip later, and I won’t be able to go back until very late. Why don’t you go first?”
“It’s okay, I’ll be waiting here.”
There was no extra expression on Jerome’s face, he pulled out the chair beside him and sat down, taking out his mobile phone and seeming to start working on official business.
Although he didn’t say a few words of comfort from beginning to end, just looking at his profile, Camille’s lips arc couldn’t be stopped.
She held on to her sleeves and hesitated for a while, but she mustered up her courage and whispered, “Actually, when I was sick before, I hoped that someone would accompany me to the hospital.”
This way……she didn’t have to be alone.
Jerome looked up, and the lights in the room made Camille’s face pale a little bit, and a slender neck was exposed when he lowered his head, looking very thin.
Didn’t know why, but his heart was suddenly hit by something, being sour and astringent.
This weird feeling made him frown, but he didn’t know why.
His expression fell into Camille’s eyes, thinking that he was unhappy, so she quickly explained, “Don’t be angry! I didn’t mean to say you, just—”
It’s just that she lost control her emotions in a moment……
The day they got their marriage license, Jerome made it very clear that he had no feelings for her at all, and there would be no result between them.
“You sleep for a while first.”
Glancing at her small movements, Jerome aggravated his frown and said coldly.
“Okay, okay……”
Camille didn’t dare to say more, she closed her eyes obediently and planned to rest, for fear that the more she said, the more wrong she would be.
She worked overtime at the company one night and lay on the hospital bed, and she quickly fell asleep.
Jerome put down the work in his hand, looked up at Camille’s sleeping appearance, and there was a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.
Camille’s appearance looked very comfortable in his eyes.
With a palm-sized delicate face, a delicate nose bridge, and fair skin, although she was not a beautiful and moving beauty, she was also beautiful and lovely.
Especially when looked at him, there was always light in her eyes……
Hum!
Suddenly a call came from the phone.
Jerome took the phone and went outside the ward, “What’s the matter?”
“Sir, the doctor said that Gwen’s condition is not very good, and he has to prepare for surgery at any time, please decide as soon as possible.”
The assistant’s voice came hurriedly from the microphone, and the emotion in Jerome’s eyes became more and more solemn, “Tell the doctor, and I will give him an answer tomorrow.”
“Okay, I see, sir.”
Hanging up the phone, he stood at the door and looked at the person inside, his expression was a little complicated.
He had almost forgotten about this woman, but this time he came back for something else.
Ironically, when he met Camille’s clear eyes, he couldn’t say what was in his heart.
But this matter had to be resolved!
