"Wife, open the door," Jimmy said helplessly as he knocked on the door.
After waiting for quite some time, Anna finally spoke through the door with a voice full ofresentment.
"I'm not feeling well today and want to sleep alone. You can go stay in the guest room."
Jimmy sighed when he saw that the door remained shut and turned around and left.

With unvented anger inside of herself, Anna went downstairs into the dining hall where one of theirservants greeted her immediately saying "Good morning, Mrs. Harrison."
Anna nodded faintly before sitting down at one end of table where Jay soon joined them too noticinghis mother wasn't very happy which caused him worryingly ask, "Olivia, what happened? Are youfeeling unwell?"
In response to Jay's sensible inquiry, Anna smiled slightly. "No, I'm fine, just eat your breakfast."
Whether it was due to bad mood or lack of sleep, Anna didn't have much appetite this morning.After taking two bites out off sandwich, she put down knife and fork. Seeing this, the nutritionistquickly walked over by Anna's side, saying softly. "Mrs. Harrison, you're eating too little. Your bodywon't be able handle this. Please eat some more okay?" The nutritionist softly persuaded.
Anna's mood was already not very good, and the continuous murmur of the nutritionist was makingher feel on the edge of a breakdown. She angrily slammed the fork and knife on the table.
Seeing Anna lose her temper for the first time, everyone was shocked, including Jay, who wassitting next to her. Even he wore a surprised expression.
Anna also realized that her emotions were getting out of control, but... she truly couldn't hold it back.
"I'm not eating."
Seeing her anger, the nutritionist was too scared to continue persuading.
Just as Anna was about to leave the dining room, Jimmy walked in.
At the sight of Anna's upset appearance, Jimmy's eyebrows furrowed tightly.
"Excuse me, I have to go to the office," Anna said coldly.
As Anna prepared to leave the dining room, Jimmy entered.
He immediately noticed the weariness beneath Anna's appearance. His sharp eyebrows knittedtogether.
"Excuse me, I have to go to the office."
Anna said coldly.
Seeing her angry, the nutritionist didn't dare to persuade her anymore.
As Anna prepared to leave the restaurant, Jimmy entered.
He immediately noticed the weariness beneath Anna's appearance. His sharp eyebrows knittedtogether.
"Step aside, I'm heading to the company." Anna spoke with a cold tone.
Jimmy's pretty eyes fell on the nutritionist.
The nutritionist quickly approached, seeming hesitant to speak. However, prompted by Jimmy'sinquiry, she eventually reported the matter of Anna only eating a few bites of a sandwich.
"You don't like the food? I'll have her prepare other breakfast."
Jimmy spoke, his deep and gentle voice as soothing as ever.
"I'm not hungry, I don't want to eat."
Anna's indifferent attitude left Jimmy feeling somewhat helpless.
"I agree with your decision to go to Ravenpoint, and I promise to fully cooperate with your work andwon't interfere anymore."
Knowing what had upset Anna, Jimmy quickly assured her. He didn't want to end up spending thenight alone in a guest room.
"Are you... sure?"
Anna lifted her head, looking at Jimmy.
"Of course, I promise."
Anna's mood suddenly brightened.
"Be good, eat more. I'll take you to the company later."
Jimmy's gentle voice reassured her.
Anna nodded. Perhaps due to her improved mood, her appetite had improved as well.
After finishing breakfast, the family of three left the villa. Jimmy dropped off their son at school andthen drove Anna to her new company.
As they neared the company, Anna signaled for Jimmy to park the car.
"What's wrong? Did you forget something at home?" Jimmy looked at Anna with confusion.
Anna stuck out her tongue, her bright starry eyes avoiding direct contact with his eagle-like gaze."
"You're a tycoon in business world, and I don't want anyone to know about our relationship. I... Idon't want people to think that I'm a woman who needs your protection to succeed, so... I'll get offhere."
Anna lightly kissed Jimmy's handsome face and immediately jumped out of the car.
Watching her run towards her company, Jimmy had a helpless expression on his face.
It wasn't until Anna's figure disappeared from his sight that he dialed a phone number.
"Mr. Green, please take care of my wife for me."
Although it was just a short sentence, it was filled with Jimmy's concern for Anna.
On the other end of the phone line, Mr. Green naturally understood what he meant.
"Don't worry, I'll take good care of Mrs. Harrison and won't let her know that you called me."
A satisfied smile appeared on Jimmy's handsome face as he gave some simple instructions beforehanging up the phone.
...
Anna felt nervous when she arrived at her new company. Although she had been working part-timefor many years, she still felt uneasy in her heart.
But fortunately for her, Mr. Green, her immediate supervisor, was a gentle and considerate middle-aged man who took great care of her colleagues too.
Although there were many tedious tasks throughout the day at work but she was very happy beingbusy all day long; by evening time she had familiarized herself with basic information about thecompany.
However, whether it was due to being busy or not having lunch earlier in the day, Anna clearly feltuncomfortable in her stomach.
As quitting time approached around six o'clock in the evening, that nauseous feeling arose onceagain.
She quickly poured herself a glass of warm water; after some time passed, she began feeling muchbetter.
At exactly six o'clock pm when everyone started leaving work, Anna walked out laughing withcolleagues.
Just as they left their office building, her mobile rang loudly.
Anna glanced at caller ID and smiled knowingly. "He is right on time," She thought while pressingthe answer button.
"Mrs. Harrison, I'm here to pick you up from work," said Jimmy's voice which sounded like clearspring water ringing gently in Anna's ear.
Looking around, she saw him waving towards herself not far away. She instinctively scanned thosenearby but none seemed aware; after saying goodbye to colleagues, she immediately ran overtowards him without any hesitation.
"How did you come here? Doesn't the company have a lot of things waiting for you to handle?"Anna asked softly, her sparkling eyes locked onto Jimmy's figure.
Jimmy immediately embraced her, resting his chin lightly on top of her head. "I missed you after justone day," he said in a deep voice that was both alluring and seductive. The sound reached Anna'sears and stirred up waves in her heart.
Blushing, Anna replied shyly, "I... I missed you too."
