However, Jenny was feeling downcast today for some reason. It was affecting her recovery after

Initially, Jenny was sleeping. Probably sensing someone approaching, she opened her eyes. The
moment
she saw him, she thought she was dreaming. “Joe.”
Was it really him? She thought he only had eyes for Skr and wasn’t concerned about her. Her
eyes
reddened, and aggrievement filled her heart,
Joe furrowed his brows silently when he saw her reddened eyes. “The doctor told me about your
condition. Is something making you unhappy?”
Jenny bit her lip and felt even more aggrieved. Her eyes reddened further. Still, she knew there
were some
things that she should keep to herself.
She merely shook her head. “I’m just afraid that I won’t recover and will be a burden to you.
Besides, I’m graduating soon. I’m worried it’ll be affected.”
Joe consoled her. “You don’t have to worry about all those things. Your surgery was a sess.
Also, your college contacted me. Don’t worry, this won’t affect your graduation.”
Jenny couldn’t help but weep. “Thanks, Joe.”
“Focus on your recovery. You’ll be discharged in no time.”
Jenny recalled the affection Joe had shown Skr that morning and felt her chest tighten. She
requested
softly, “Can you keep mepany, Joe?”
“Sure. I’ll stay with you until visiting hours end,” Joe agreed.
Upon getting what she wished for, the uneasiness Jenny felt dissipated. She must be irreceable

He would agree as long as she requested hispany.
“Are you going back to Jipsburg soon?” asked Jenny.
He’d put aside his heavy workload just to apany her through her surgery. Others could only

At that thought, Jenny smiled sweetly.
Joe nodded. “I’m going back two dayster. Paul will handle everything else for you. Call him if
anything’s
1. up.
He’d just asked Paul to book a flight back to Jipsburg City for himself and Skr.
On the boat ride, Skr had said she was going back after two days. He’d thought about it and
realized he could go back with her.
Upon hearing that, Jenny pursed her lips. “Okay, I will look after myself. After I graduate, I’ll head
back to Jipsburg. You won’t have to keeping to Korel City, then. I can also take care of
Grandma when I’m
back.”
At the mention of Gloria, Joe’s gaze softened: “Alright. Take good care of yourself.”
Jenny noticed he appeared more refreshed todaypared to yesterday. Smiling, she said, “It
looks like you eyes aren’t bloodshot
anymore.

Joe was stunned. After the intimacy he and Skr had shared in bedst night, he remembered
sleeping through the night with Skr in his arms. That had felt extremely refreshing.
He knew he was sleeping better because he hugged Skr while sleeping.
“Indeed, I slept earlierst night and had a restful night.” As he remembered what it felt like to hug
Skr, his heart grew tender. Even his usually cold features seemed to glow gently.
Jenny thought it was because of her that
Could sleep well. “You should go to bed early after this.
