Wife Back 48

    The banquet venue chosen by Crimson Engineering was the Rose Manor, where the Wilder Group had also held their anniversary celebrations years ago.


    Inside the huge iron gates, roses spread everywhere, of all kinds.


    As soon as one got close, the strong fragrance of roses could be smelled.


    Besides that, the wine here was exceptional–it was a privately owned manor, and without some connections, renting it was impossible.


    This alone proved the Chairman of Crimson Engineering’s status in the business world.


    On the day of the party, Chris only epted one surgery.


    His mood had been goodtely, and it was rare to feel Jessica’s care for him, he even felt a bit relieved that he hadn’t left back then.


    Jake was apanying the mentor on rounds and was just about to finish work when he happened to see Chris smiling at his phone and pushed the door open toe in.


    “Well, you’re in a good mood! You were looking so down a few days ago, I thought something happened to you.”


    Jake was casual and pulled out the chair opposite to sit.


    At this time, all of Chris’s appointments had been called, leaving only the two of them.


    Chris twirled the pen in his hand, replied to Jessica’s message, and put the phone aside.


    “Not bad. You were second assistant in this afternoon’s surgery. How did it feel?”


    “Pretty good. Jonathan guided me hand in hand. I really envy you your hands are so steady. I’ll go back and keep practicingter. Are you going back to the dorm tonight?”


    “No, I’m not.”


    Jessica arrived at the hospital on time to pick him up.


    She checked the time and, while Chris hadn’te out yet, called Michael.


    Today was such an important day–Michael mustn’t cause trouble.


    Lately, Michael had been going out more often and frequently taking Jordan with him.


    If he were negotiating with the Hall family, he definitely wouldn’t bring the child along.


    Jennifer said that every time Michael returned home, his face was dark, and Jordan didn’t seem very happy either.


    Michael could still put on a show in front of Jennifer, but Jordan was a child.


    In the past few nights when she brought milk, she had heard Jordan throwing a tantrum at Michael, saying, “I don’t want to see her anymore.”


    Who was this “her“?


    The Hall family held many secrets, and Michael bore many burdens.


    Jessica wanted to dig them all out, but without alerting Michael or really fall out with him.


    She felt sorry for keeping Chris in the dark.


    This matter involved too much, Chris’s ignorance was actually a term of protection.


    With that thought in mind, the call was answered.


    “Jessica.”


    Michael’s voice was as gentle as ever, as if five years had left no trace on them.


    Jessica was momentarily stunned, then quickly responded, “Are you home?”


    “Yeah, I’m watching TV with Jordan. By the way, Jessica, about sendling Jordan to school, I thought about it, and I think should listen to you.”


    Jessica breathed a sigh of relief.


    “Okay, I’ll have someone make the preparations right


    They spoke for a while, confirming Michael was home and


    go out today before she felt at ease.


    When Chris came out, she hung up with a tender look, but her expression quickly changed.


    She sent a message to Shannon.


    Shannon, who was still preparing at thepany, saw the enrollment documents.


    “You’re early.”


    message and quickly contacted people to prepare Jordan’s


    Chris rarely initiated conversation with Jessica, but in the past two days, things had started to ease up a little.


    Jessica smiled, walked over, and hugged Chris and held his hand.


    “You rarelye out this early. You would usuallye out aste as possible.”


    Things were different now.


    Inside the Rose Manor, sses clinked and drinks flowed.


    No one here would spoil such a day.


    Crimson Engineering was the leader in the field, and no one dared offend them.


    Recently, rumors had spread that the Hall family was going to cooperate with Crimson Engineering.


    All the details had been negotiated, and now only signatures were left.
