The President's Secret Wife by Josephine

Chapter 035 Have you ever liked me a little bit?

Jenny looked at the food on the table and instantly felt no appetite.

But thinking of the baby in her stomach, she still reluctantly ate a lot.

Especially the nutritious food such as shrimp and fish, although she felt a little fishy, still gulped into her

stomach.

After eating, Jenny looked at the man across the table, “Carey, can I ask how long you’ve been working

for him?”

“Oh? You mean the president?”

Carey thought for a moment, then said, “It’s been five years, I’ve been working for the president since

the moment he joined the company.”

“It’s been five years!” Jenny murmured, “It hasn’t been as long as I’ve been with him.”

“Mrs. Smith, what are you saying?” Carey asked in wonder, somewhat confused as to what Jenny was

trying to say.

“Nothing.” Jenny shook her head.

Ten years, she had loved him for a whole decade.

“I wonder if he was always so gentle with every girl?” Jenny asked again.

Carey immediately shook his head and answered seriously, “No, the president only treats you well……”

“and also Laura, he is very cold to all other women.

“Is that so?” Jenny smiled.

It seemed that he really loved Laura to his bones, to the extent that he didn’t even let other women get

close.

If there was no marriage between them, and there was no such relationship with grandpa, I am afraid

Barret would be cold to her too.

Suddenly, a familiar song “Happy Birthday” rang out in the hall.

The atmosphere outside is very lively.

Jenny couldn’t help but look over and see the waiter pushing a multi-tiered cake into a large, airy box

diagonally across the room.

Then she saw Laura looking at the cake with a look of surprise and excitement.

“Oh my God, Barret, I thought you had forgotten.”

“I remember.”

“Thank you, Barret, I’m really so happy.”

Laura reached out and threw her arms around Barret’s neck, overwhelmed with joy.

Barret looked up for a moment just in time to see Jenny.

This was totally unexpected.

He didn’t expect Jenny to be eating at the same restaurant.

“Garret, I’m so happy that you always have me in your heart.”

Laura came up and smiled, sending her red lips with the intention of giving him a kiss.

Jenny’s hands shook and immediately averted her gaze.

The chopsticks in her hand accidentally knocked over the cup on the table, which was filled with

chrysanthemum tea that the waiter had just poured, and almost instantly spilled it all over her.

It was very hot and scalding.

However, at that moment she could hardly feel it at all.

“Cut the cake!” Barret tilted his head, easily avoiding Laura’s kiss, and then spoke without moving.

Laura didn’t notice anything different and happily let go of him: “Yes, I like strawberry-flavored food the

most.”

“Well, it’s good that you like it.”

“You cut the cake first, I’ll go out for a while.”

**

Out of the corner, Barret immediately called Carey: “You come out for a minute.”

“Ah, president, what do you mean?” Carey had a head full of questions.

“I’m in the same restaurant as you, I’m in the booth across the street.”

“Okay, president, I’ll be right there.”

As soon as Carey exited the booth, she quickly found Barret.

“What are you doing here?” Barret’s brow furrowed, which was obviously unexpected.

“President, it’s a complete coincidence that it was a random restaurant Mrs. Smith chose when she

passed through here.”

“What just happened to her? I see the waiter’s hands are full.”

“Mrs. Smith just got scalded by boiling water,” Carey said.

“How did you take care of her and how are the burns? Was it serious?”

“It’s a little red and swollen.”

Hearing this, Barret stepped away and walked straight to Jenny’s private room.

“Miss, wait a moment, I’ll get you the medicine for your burns.” The waiter said thoughtfully,

Jenny looked down at the redness of her hand, shook her head, and said lightly, “Forget it, I’ll just rinse

it off with cold water myself.”

Maybe it’s because her heart hurts too much, she thinks the wound doesn’t seem to hurt that much.

“Don’t be ridiculous.”

Barret spoke while walking in.

When she saw him, Jenny was stunned, because she didn’t expect him to come over.

Wasn’t he in the opposite box?

And he was just with Laura on her birthday, so lovingly together, how did he have time to come to her.

“Why don’t you apply for medicine when you are hurt?”

After saying that, he looked to the waiter and ordered, “Go get the medicine.”

“Yes, I’ll go right away.”

Then, he pulled over a chair and sat down next to Jenny, pulling her wrist and examining it carefully.

When he saw a large red swelling on the back of her hand, he frowned: “You’re almost graduated,

you’re

not a little girl anymore, why do you still can’t learn to take care of yourself.”

“I haven’t graduated yet!” Jenny muttered softly.

As soon as she graduated from college, she enrolled in graduate school, which is a total of three years,

and if things go well, she will graduate in half a year.

“Then you’re no longer a little girl either.”

“Who says, I’m cute and young looking, I’ll always be a little girl.”

“How is a little girl defined? Ma’am, remember who you are, you’re a married woman now.”

Jenny pouted, “What does that matter, soon I won’t be a married woman anyway, I’m in a good frame

of mind, I just feel like a little girl can’t I!”

Barret was at a loss for a retort, and could only shake his head helplessly and sigh, “Okay, you’ll

always be eighteen and always be a teenager, okay?”

Jenny then felt a little more comfortable.

The attendant quickly brought the ointment, and Barret took it one step faster.

“Be good, put your hand down.” He looked at Jenny and said.

“Okay.”

Jenny put both hands on the table.

Barret squeezed the medicine box with one hand and held a cotton swab in the other, his long, thin

fingers patiently rubbing the medicine on her little by little.

The profile of his side face is really very nice, the beauty of smooth lines, and deep features, all of it

shining in the light.

He never seemed to need to adorn himself, because wherever he went he brought his own halo.

She never dared to think that such an excellent one would become her husband.’

But She never thought he would actually agree to marry her.

The day the two received their marriage license, she felt that everything was as dreamy as a dream.

After the marriage, she thought he would be cold and distant to her, and would even hate her.

If it hadn’t been for her Grandpa wouldn’t have forced him to marry her. Maybe, as Laura said, it wasn’t

impossible that one day, with his efforts, Grandpa would really accept Laura.

Therefore, Jenny has not dared to have too many illusions about this marriage, and she was prepared

for everything to be ignored by him and left out by him.

She was also ready to warm him with her heart and love for the rest of her life and soften him up.

However, everything she expected did not happen.

After the marriage, he was like a perfect husband.

He had everything in order.

He would also love and care for her.

He would stand up for her, he would give her money to spend, he would buy her lots and lots of gold

and silver jewelry and clothes, and he would give her credit cards to swipe at will.

He would even give her medicine and used to play behind her back in order to coax her.

When the night is thick, he will also be like all men, buried his head in her neck nest, and they entwined

together.

So at that time, she had the illusion for a while.

He had forgotten about Laura, or even if he still remembered her, he didn’t love her as much.

She thought he was attracted to her, or at least had a little liking for her.

“Barret, I want to ask you a question.” Jenny looked at him and suddenly wanted to ask.

“What’s going on in your head, why do you have so many questions?”

“Can I ask or not?”

“shoot.”

“Have you ever liked me a little bit during these two years?”
