Love Mission: Ex-wife Strikes Back

Jean smiled and stopped Sandra from saying anything more. "What are you talking about, Granny? Isn't this my duty?" she asked.

"I just feel sorry for you, dear," Sandra said with a sigh. "You're a woman, but you have to take care of me in the daytime and go back to work in the evening. Don't you think it is too tiresome?"

She held Jean's hand. "How about this? You don't have to come here for the next two days. Go home and take a rest. Anyway, I'm going to leave the hospital soon, and I also have a caregiver to take care of me. You don't have to come here every day like this anymore. It's too hard for you."

"No way!" Without hesitation, Jean turned down Sandra's suggestion. "Granny, I don't think the caregiver will be as considerate as me. And I'm not busy these days anyway."

"But—"

"No more buts, Granny

tly. "You don't have to be burdened by this matter."

"Did you ask me here just so you could tell me this?" asked Jean. Her eyebrows furrowed.

Terence lowered his head and said nothing.

Of course, he didn't ask her out to just say this. But he really didn't know where to start.

"What's the matter?" asked Jean.

"Jean…" He hesitated for a moment. If it had been in the past, he would be more straightforward. But now he knew Jean's love for him, and she had taken care of his grandmother for days. He really couldn't say what he wanted to say.

"What's wrong with you? It isn't you to hem and haw," Jean said with a frown. "Just say it. You don't have to act like this in front of me."

"Okay, then I'll go straight to the point." After being reluctant for a long time, he decided to say what he had to say.
