Chapter 1135 - 1143: Who is Next to You

~4 min read 630 words

After these matters had been investigated thoroughly, James Black was the first to receive the messages.

"It’s just that these people didn’t expect that after blocking the police from entering the village, the guard team would get involved," James thought. If the members of the guard team hadn’t arrived in time yesterday, who knows what would’ve happened—the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"Well, that’s good, so that my grandparents and grandfather don’t have to worry if they find out," Jane Sampson said.

"Even if the guard team was mobilized, the grandparents might not know, but it would be hard to hide it from grandfather," James pondered for a moment, then said, "I’m going to hang up the phone and switch to a WhatsApp video call with you."

Jane unconsciously hummed in affirmation, then hurriedly yelled, "No! I just woke up! I haven’t even washed my face!"

James chuckled softly, "I don’t mind your unkempt appearance."

After saying that, James hung up the phone, and a few seconds later, the WhatsApp video call came through.

Jane pressed to answer with her lips pursed.

This guy was really hopeless at speaking. How could he say she looked ugly?

Even a little fairy who has just woken up without washing her face is very beautiful, okay!

After the video connected, she finally saw the person she had been thinking about all day. Seeing that his complexion was not bad on the mobile phone, Jane felt much more reassured.

"How are you feeling today? Are you feeling much better than yesterday?" This was James’s most pressing concern.

"I feel a lot better after a good sleep. As long as I don’t jump around, I won’t feel dizzy or suffocated. Those symptoms are gone," Jane could feel that she was much more comfortable now than before she went to bed.

"Who allowed you to jump around?" James immediately frowned upon hearing this, "Jane Sampson, if you don’t behave, I’ll throw your Mr. Rabbit in the trash bin downstairs!"

"..." Always with this childish threat!

Jane held back a small face, wanting to retort, but she didn’t know what to say.

Seeing her expression directly made James Carter, who was sitting by her side watching her, laugh.

"James Black, you’re so good at annoying people. You might as well not come to Cloud Province to see me. I’m afraid you’ll annoy me to death here in Cloud Province," Jane waved a small fist at the man in the video, "If you dare to throw away my Mr. Rabbit, I will..."

"You will what?" James’s tone rose slightly, a threatening edge to his voice.

I don’t want you anymore.

That sentence, Jane held back again.

She changed her words, "I’ll just get angry."

James softly huffed, then suddenly asked, "Who’s beside you?"

James had clearly heard a boy’s suppressed laughter just now.

"It’s Mr. Carter!" Jane happily turned the phone’s camera towards James Carter, "Say hello to each other! Yesterday, it was Uncle Carter and Mr. Carter who took care of me."

James was surprised; he hadn’t expected James Carter to be the one in Jane’s ward.

This man, who for a very long period had occupied an important place in Jane’s WhatsApp.

This man, who had appeared in Jane’s diary.

"Mr. Black, hello," James Carter greeted James through the phone, very much like a gentleman.

However, the truth was, James Black’s mood wasn’t very good.

Still, he nodded subtly at James Carter through the phone and hummed an acknowledgment, then turned to Jane and said, "Turn the phone back to yourself, I want to see you."

Anyway, even looking at the ceiling would do.

It was all better than having to look at the face of this man who had once appeared in his wife’s diary.
