Twin Treasures: The CEO Wife's 99-Day of Revelations-Chapter 1277: Love or Not

At this moment, Jocelyn Morgan was at home, lost in thought, her mood hitting rock bottom.

The phone in her palm rang, and without much hope, she glanced at the caller ID—it was Ian Shelby calling!

She was momentarily stunned, then hurried to answer, "Hello?" Her voice was small, but her mood instantly improved.

"Sorry, Jocelyn, I just saw your message." Ian’s first sentence was an explanation, "I was really busy today with two emergency cases."

"That must have been tough, right?" Jocelyn suddenly felt very sorry for him, not at all angry anymore.

"It’s okay, it’s a doctor’s duty."

"No matter how busy, you need to take care of yourself." She wished she could help him, "I can’t offer much help, do you have an assistant?"

"Yes." Ian asked straightforwardly, "Did you need something from me?"

"..." Jocelyn was embarrassed, thinking, what could I possibly need from you? If I’m sick, I’d go to the hospital! Isn’t it because I miss you?

"Um..." But she quickly snapped back to reality and got straight to the point, "Are you working overtime tonight?"

"Why do you ask?"

"I mean, if you have the time, I’d like to have dinner together?" She indeed missed him and didn’t know why, but the yearning in her heart was hard to suppress.

"I’ll listen to you today." Ian’s voice was gentle, "Just send me the time and place on WeChat."

At this moment, Jocelyn heard someone calling for Dr. Shelby on the phone, knowing he had to get busy, she happily agreed, "OK! You go ahead! I’ll send it to you in a bit!"

And with that, the call ended.

Holding the phone, Jocelyn couldn’t help but smile, the joy that had been missing all day returned!

Though loving someone is hard, loving someone also brings happiness!

Being able to receive Ian’s call, to hear his familiar voice, Jocelyn felt every cell in her body was filled with vitality.

She was wrapped in a blanket full of love.

No matter how busy, responding when seeing a message—that’s the best attitude.

This is the essential attitude in a relationship.

Even though he is so busy and she has free time, he is destined not to always be by her side.

But she can understand, and will endlessly accommodate, because she loves him!

He protects humanity, so she will protect him!

It was already afternoon.

Jocelyn estimated the time he would get off work and the time she needed for bathing and makeup.

She sent him the time and place, and added a line—I’ll wait for you downstairs at the hospital.

After sending the message, she went into the dressing room.

She picked out newly bought clothes, versatile style, fashionable yet cute.

After her bath, she dried her hair, put on makeup and set off.

Vera Ford knew Ian Shelby had been very busy lately, she saw it with her own eyes, Ian worked overtime every day, today would be no exception.

Yesterday, he didn’t even have time to go to the canteen for a meal, Vera felt very sorry seeing this.

So today, she specifically took time to go to a nearby restaurant, ordered three dishes, a soup, and a bowl of rice, and brought them steaming hot to the dean’s office.

At this time, Ian was taking off his white coat, looking ready to leave.

Vera stood in the doorway with the bag, looking bewildered. Ian glanced at her, but quickly turned his gaze, washing his hands at the sink attentively.

Vera placed the bag with the meal gently on his desk, "Ian, are you off work now?"

"Yeah."

Vera felt a bit let down inside, but still looked at his back, smiling, "I brought you dinner, thought you’d be working overtime."

"Thanks, eat it yourself." Ian told her, "I’ve finished handing over, not working overtime tonight." With that, he dried his hands and stepped out.

Vera stepped aside, just watching him leave right before her eyes.
