Conquest Game: The Aloof Husband is Dangerous!-Chapter 168 - 154: Is He Really That Annoying? (Part 4)
When did she fall to the point of cleaning up garbage on the streets?
Someone as proud as her would actually...
Suddenly, she thought of something and her eyes widened, could it be...
To clear up her confusion, she had to take out her phone and call Jason Hawthorne, but who knew just as she dialed, someone opened the door and came in.
It was Jason Hawthorne.
"Laura, I’m so glad you called me!"
His words brimmed with excitement, clearly very happy.
Laura Quincy, however, was very ungracious, throwing cold water, "I only called you to ask about something."
Jason Hawthorne knew well, "You saw the news just now."
Laura Quincy looked up at him, "Was it really you?"
Jason Hawthorne sat down on the sofa, "I already gave Mrs. Ruth Leighton a deadline, but she turned a deaf ear to my words. Since that’s the case, of course, she deserves some extra reward."
He paused, looking at Laura Quincy, "Don’t you think the job of sweeping garbage suits her very well?"
Laura Quincy almost laughed out loud. To be honest, when she realized the woman in the baseball cap was Ruth Leighton, she felt secretly delighted.
Ruth Leighton, someone who loves beauty and showing off, having her be a garbage worker is almost the same as taking her life...
It must be said, Jason Hawthorne is really quite clever, to think of using this trick to punish her...
She almost wanted to laugh.
"It’s not bad!"
"I see a hint of a smile on your lips..."
Jason Hawthorne saw through her intentions.
As a result, Laura Quincy glared at him, "Don’t think that just because you helped me this time, I will be grateful!"
Jason Hawthorne also knew it wasn’t that easy, "It’s something I should do."
He asked again, "Feeling better today? If you feel any discomfort, be sure to tell the doctor. I’ll bring Twinkle to visit this afternoon."
Laura Quincy turned her face away and ignored him.
Jason Hawthorne added, "How about I peel an apple for you?"
Laura Quincy refused, "No need! My hand is inconvenient."
Jason Hawthorne glanced at her arm, which was heavily bandaged, "I can feed you."
Laura Quincy rolled her eyes, "Not necessary!"
Jason Hawthorne persisted, "The doctor said eating fresh fruit is good for recovery."
Laura Quincy pursed her lips helplessly, "There are lots of beneficial things, do I have to do them all?"
Jason Hawthorne’s voice was surprisingly tender, "Within your capacity, you should do what you can, like eating fruit..."
Then he took the fruit to the kitchen.
Not only did he wash an apple, but he also washed a plate of grapes...
Laura Quincy simply closed her eyes and pretended to sleep. Eating the fruit fed by him, she’d rather knock herself out!
This time, Jason Hawthorne was surprisingly patient, "Be good, don’t make things hard for your body."
His voice low and intoxicating, but Laura Quincy wasn’t in the mood to appreciate it now, she just kept her eyes shut, ignoring him.
Jason Hawthorne glanced at her and said slowly, "If you don’t open your eyes, I’m going to kiss you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Laura Quincy opened her eyes and glared at him angrily, "You dare!"
Jason Hawthorne shrugged, "If you don’t eat, I might really do that. After all, you are a patient now, I can bully you as I please..."
Laura Quincy was furious, "Shameless! You said yesterday you wouldn’t appear in front of me alone, are you a man? Only doing untrustworthy things!"
Jason Hawthorne was not annoyed, "You were the one who called me first, I just appeared at the right time."
Laura Quincy was infuriated by his twisted logic, "You’re just being unreasonable!"
Jason Hawthorne didn’t argue further, "Alright, it’s time to eat the fruit, I promise I’ll leave once you finish eating."
Laura Quincy looked at the apple and grapes, "How can I eat all that! You’re just making excuses!"
Jason Hawthorne compromised, "Eat half."
Laura Quincy: "..."
To get a certain man to leave as soon as possible, Laura Quincy had to accept his feeding, though her expression remained puffed-up, eating reluctantly.
Jason Hawthorne actually enjoyed the process of feeding her fruit, but watching her eat grapes made him really want to... kiss her...
Unfortunately, he had to hold back now.
Otherwise, all the efforts would be in vain...
Out on the street.
Ruth Leighton was extremely distraught, being woken up early in the morning by loud noises outside, and then a group of strangers in black barged into her home, claiming she broke the law and would be taken to jail...
Of course she didn’t agree, making a fuss about calling the police, but when the police came, they also said she committed a crime and had to be jailed.
In an instant, she felt like dying, crying and refusing to go to jail, knowing the outside world depicted prison as terrifying, she really didn’t dare to go...
While she was making a scene, those people gave her a second choice: she didn’t have to go to jail, but must sweep garbage to repay her debt.
She suddenly realized how naive she had been, thinking Laura Quincy had hired people to scare her, no wonder her husband was so angry, he didn’t come home last night...
Phoebe Turner was also woken up by the commotion outside, and coming out in her pajamas saw such an astonishing scene.
"Mom, what’s going on?"
Ruth Leighton replied unhappily, "What’s going on? You comforted me saying it was a scam call, now look what happened, I’m so doomed!"
Phoebe Turner was dumbfounded, since when did Laura Quincy have such a strong backing to help her?
The men in black didn’t waste time, taking Ruth Leighton away, then someone threw her a set of cleaner’s clothes, telling her work starts at seven in the morning and ends at five-thirty in the evening, with the job being to empty out the garbage cans...
Ruth Leighton almost fainted upon hearing this, but when she really stood in front of the trash can, the smell nearly knocked her out...
Unfortunately, the men in black said she couldn’t just idle until end of day, the garbage cans in her area must be emptied clean, otherwise, she’d have to work overtime to complete it.
Which led to her tantrum shown on the TV news...
