Chapter 1109 - 1117: No Crying Allowed

~4 min read 614 words

Jane Sampson hummed in response, her voice still carrying a hint of a sob from crying earlier, muffled, making James Black frown.

"From now on, you’re not allowed to cry at any time," he said in a very stern tone.

"Hmm~" Jane Sampson then broke into a smile, her voice soft and tender as she replied, "I’m not a crybaby. I was just really annoyed just now!"

She wouldn’t be sad enough to cry over any lost stuff, even if it were her new purse or anything else that might be invaluable. At most, she would just complain about her bad luck.

But this time, what she lost was something James Black had given her, and to her, that was different.

"That statement doesn’t sound very convincing," at least James had seen her cry several times before.

Thinking of this, James’s eyebrows suddenly lifted, and the corner of his mouth quirked up slightly as he added, "Except..."

"Except what?" Jane Sampson asked instinctively.

"In our bed, I’ll allow you to cry," he said in an indifferent voice.

"..." At this moment, Jane Sampson really wanted to smash her mobile phone into James’s face.

Even through the phone, she could imagine the expression on his face when he said that with such a serious demeanor.

But at this moment, she didn’t even want to hang up the call.

"James Black, I don’t want to talk to you," Jane Sampson said coyly, "But I don’t want to hang up the phone, I’m upset, and you have to comfort me!"

"Keep dreaming," James replied with three words, his voice laced with amusement, but he started speaking again, "The lipstick has been reordered for you, the engraving has been specially requested, and there’s one more thing, I think I should notify you in advance."

"What?" The person who had just said she didn’t want to talk to him quickly asked.

"The box you’ve been hiding..."

As soon as Jane Sampson heard about the box, she shouted, "You’ve seen my box?!"

"Not yet," James, seeing Jane’s strong reaction, grew even more curious about what was inside the box, "But I’ll take a look, so I’m giving you a heads-up."

Upon hearing this, Jane immediately reassured herself, "You won’t find it!"

So certain? Could it be it’s not hidden in the house?

James was a bit surprised, "Our house isn’t that big, how could it not be found?"

"Our house is not small, okay? If I, Jane Sampson, choose to hide something, nobody can find it!" Jane Sampson boasted.

James chuckled softly, "Then it seems it really is hidden in the house."

The little miss, so easily led into revealing her secret.

"..." Jane Sampson bit her lips; this man really was...

Did he just start off not sure whether it was hidden in the house?

This guy, all brains and slyness, so annoying!

"Even if you’re now sure it’s in the house, you definitely won’t find it! Humph!" With that, Jane Sampson hung up the phone.

Coco Edwards returned after a while, and having just stepped out, came back to find the girl who had teary eyes a moment ago now lying on the bed, holding her phone and laughing. She looked shocked.

"You laugh like this after losing something? You haven’t been driven crazy by the shock, have you?" Coco walked over concernedly, touched Jane Sampson’s forehead, and muttered, "It’s not hot~"

"James Black ordered another one just like it for me!" Jane Sampson rolled over, showing her teeth in a smile at Coco, "He cheered me up."

"..." Unexpectedly force-fed a mouthful of dog food, Coco thought about it and felt she shouldn’t have asked that question.
