Chapter 1382
Silvia wanted to forget the relationship she had with Felix, but every time she thought about how she had broken her promise, she would be filled with remorse.
This was especially the case with Felix's current condition. She just could not bring herself to feel at ease.
"The snow is getting heavy now. Let's go home first." Jayden knew that Silvia was stubborn and that he would not be able to convince her that easily. He knew that he would have to give her some time to think it through herself.
Silvia broke away from his embrace and shook her head as she said, "Jayden, you can go home first. I'm going back to my mom's place."
"Your mom is at West Side now." Jayden dragged her along and shoved her into the car. "Go home with me. Don't think about going anywhere else."
Silvia said anxiously, "Jayden, can you not be this bossy?"
Jayden replied, "No."
Silvia was speechless.
In the end, Silvia followed Jayden back to West Side.
Before returning home, Jayden had given Auntie Cherry a call. Knowing that Silvia and Jayden were coming home, Mrs. Turner was so happy that she prepared Jayden and Silvia's favorite dishes.
However, Jayden and Silvia were still not home after Mrs. Turner was done preparing dinner. Mrs. Turner stood at the gate, stretching her neck out over and over again. After waiting for quite a while, she finally saw a car driving towards her direction.
As the car got closer, Mrs. Turner could see the people in the car. It was her daughter and her son-in-law, whom she had been looking forward to seeing for a long time. She rushed over and said, "Jayden, Silvia, you two are finally back."
Silvia got out of the car and gave Mrs. Turner a big hug. "Mom... sorry for making you worry again."
Mrs. Turner pushed Silvia out of her embrace and took a thorough look at her. She had to make sure that her daughter was really in front of her eyes only then she could feel at ease. "It's good that you're back safely."
Silvia hugged Mrs. Turner once again. "Mom... I'm so blessed to have you. Let me hug you for a while longer."
Mrs. Turner smiled and said, "Alas, you're already a married woman, but you're still so clingy towards your mother. Are you not afraid that you'll get laughed at?"
Silvia said, "As long as you don't laugh at me, no one will laugh at me."
Jayden got out of the car and said, "Silvia, the snow is getting heavier. Let's go back in first."
It was only when Jayden had reminded Silvia that she remembered that it was still snowing. She said, "Let's go, Mom."
"Okay." After stepping into the house, Mrs. Turner could not take her eyes off Silvia. "Silvia, you've lost weight, didn't you? I think you've lost at least five pounds."
"Mom, I've been eating a lot lately, it's impossible that I've lost weight." In fact, Silvia did notice that her pants were a lot looser than before, so she reckoned that she must have lost quite some weight. However, it's normal for a person's weight to fluctuate, so she did not pay much attention to it nor did Jayden realize it too. Mrs. Turner, on the other hand, could tell it the moment she saw Silvia. That was why it was said that a husband's love could never compare to a parent's love.
"I've made some chicken soup today. Make sure you two have more of it later." Mrs. Turner turned to look at Jayden, who had been keeping his silence, and said, "Jayden, you don't look that good, you should have more too."
Now that Mrs. Turner had mentioned it, Silvia noticed that Jayden really did not look that great. She got worried and asked, "Jayden, are you not feeling well again?"
The weather in Chatterton Town and Madison City was indeed different. Since Jayden was still on the recovery, his body certainly could not withstand the harsh weather in Madison City.
"I'm fine." His mother-in-law was still here, so no matter how unwell he was, Jayden had to pretend like he was alright. He did not want Mrs. Turner to think that Silvia was married to a useless man. Although Jayden said that he was fine, Silvia was still not at ease. "Jayden, let's go eat something first. I'll ask Dr. York to come over once we're done with dinner."
Mrs. Turner asked, "Is Jayden not feeling well?"
Silvia said, "It's just a cold, Mom. It happens whenever the weather gets cold, but it's not a big deal. I'll ask the doctor to come over and take a look at him. You don't have to worry about him, okay?" With a suspicious look, Mrs. Turner sized Silvia up and asked, "Really?"
Silvia held Mrs. Turner in her arms. "Of course. Why would I lie to you?"
Mrs. Turner smiled and said, "Well, you're right."
After dinner, Jayden returned to his room while Silvia gave Carson a call.
Jayden was not doing very well. He was having a fever. Although the fever was not high, in order to prevent the fever from worsening, Carson immediately gave Jayden an antipyretic jab.
"Jayden, are you feeling dizzy? Or any discomfort?" Silvia was afraid that Jayden would fall unconscious again. She was so worried that her heart would not stop palpitating.
"Yeah, I'm feeling a little dizzy, but it's not anything serious. Don't worry about it." Jayden caressed Silvia's head and gave her a reassuring smile, "Dr. York just gave me an antipyretic jab and the fever will be gone in no time. You haven't seen Mom in a long time, she must have a lot to say to you. You should go keep her company first."
"It's fine. I can talk to Mom anytime. I'll stay here with you for now." At this moment, what Silvia was worried about the most was Jayden. She was afraid that his situation would worsen and he would have to return to Chatterton Town to get treatment like the previous time.
Jayden was really a willful man. Chatterton Town was a better place for his recovery, and yet he left everything behind and came over to Madison City for her.
Silvia wondered if he knew that if something were to go wrong, he might actually lose his life?
Jayden rubbed her head and said, "I said that I'm fine now, and yet you're still looking this worried. People might actually think that I'm dying."
"Stop that nonsense, Jayden!" Silvia reached out her hand to cover his mouth to stop him from babbling, "I'm telling you, what I want you to do now is focus on your recovery. You don't have to comfort me." His situation was already this bad, and yet he was still trying to comfort her. Silvia really did not know what she should do with him.
Jayden grabbed her hand and kissed it. Silvia quickly pulled her hand back and warned in a soft voice, "Jayden, there's someone else around. Can you please behave yourself?"
Carson, who was preparing Jayden's medicine, suddenly said, "Master Jayden, Mrs. Kyle, you can do whatever you want. Please don't mind me. I'm a professional doctor, I won't look at things I shouldn't be looking at."
Silvia was at a loss for words.
Why did he have to be this direct? It seemed like it was true that subordinates would always behave like their master.
Looking at Silvia's reddened face, Jayden was amused. He could not help but want to tease her. "Okay, I'll behave myself. But I want you to come and lie down with me for a bit."
"You can lie down there, I'll accompany you." Except for being embarrassed having to lie down with him in the presence of a third person, Silvia still needed to measure his body temperature later. What if she fell asleep later and missed it?
However, Jayden was never a gentle person anyway. He reached out his long arms and pulled Silvia onto his bed and said, "Okay, let's go to sleep now!"
