It was only after she took a sip of water that she managed to suppress the uncomfortable acidity in her throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hand with delicate and well-defined knuckles reached out in front of her, resting two pills in its palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man’s gentle voice came from above her, “I looked at the instructions, and this hangover medicine isn’t made entirely from natural ingredients. There’s a better one, but it’s too much trouble to switch now, so just make do and take two of these. Later, have some yogurt; it also contains hangover-reducing properties.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between preparing hot porridge and arranging medicine and yogurt, Enna Clark pursed her lips, truly at a loss for words, “Thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flicker of bitterness passed through Lyle Westbrook’s eyes as he lifted the corners of his mouth, “No need to thank me, just take them so you don’t feel so bad.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t desire her thanks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, her saying thank you always gave a sense of distance, as if deliberately drawing a boundary between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enna picked up the pills from his palm and swallowed them down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe it was because she drank too hastily, but she choked on the water which immediately caused her to cough until her eyes turned red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lyle Westbrook patted her back a few times, asking with concern, “Feeling better now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enna really felt extremely uncomfortable, holding back the tears welling up from the choking, she nodded, “Yes, much better.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lyle Westbrook, seeing her like that, didn’t think she looked ‘much better’ at all. He personally inserted a straw into the yogurt and handed it to her, “Drink some of this; it should help.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enna truly felt a bit embarrassed, but with the yogurt already in front of her, refusing it would just make things more awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hesitated for a moment before accepting it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was already the second time she had said thank you that day. Lyle Westbrook pressed his lips into a straight line, summoning all his self-control to refrain from asking her why she was being so polite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, at that moment, the person he had sent out to buy clothes returned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lyle Westbrook said to the petite woman sitting down, “You rest here for a while, I’ll change and then take you back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the vast private room, only Enna Clark remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enna rubbed her nose bridge; her stomach was still in turmoil, causing her unbearable discomfort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was much better compared to before. At least now, despite feeling uncomfortable, she wasn’t as nauseous as earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had just picked up the yogurt, ready to drink a bit more to clear her dizzy head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The phone had already started ringing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bobby set an exclusive ringtone on her phone for himself; whenever he called, it would play that song “Baby,” and without looking at the Caller ID, she would know who it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the ringtone sounded, Enna abruptly remembered that she had forgotten to attend a dinner with Bobby that evening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s over…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two words just floated across her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she answered the call, immediately Bobby’s displeased voice came through, “Woman, what time is it now? Haven’t you left work yet?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bobby was now a little over seven years old, his voice no longer babyish but not yet the quacking of adolescence—still that of a child’s innocent tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But aside from his voice being childlike, both his tone and content were that of a domineering little adult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where are you? Uncle Harris and I will pick you up!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, there’s no need, I’m on my way back.”\u003C\u002Fp>",648,"2026-06-06T13:23:28.097Z",1,"novelbin.me","7bbc3a7287f09461f0c6424d4c537fe27ab4f49330e33161336afe2f0569bc64","lingering-doting-marriage-big-boss-little-sweet--chapter-1291","lingering-doting-marriage-big-boss-little-sweet--chapter-1289",2700,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flingering-doting-marriage-big-boss-little-sweet--cover.jpg"]
