Chasing After My Wife Chapter 229
Advertisement
When the sun shone brightly in the next morning, Jillyanna squinted her eyes as she sat on her own bed, trying to get herself to wake up completely.
She stretched her body for a minute before walking towards Travis. "Morning sweetheart. It's new day and you are still asleep." she kissed his pale face quickly and took hold of his hand. "I'll be working in a while again. It would be great if you are awake when I get back." she kissed the back of his hand while keeping her eyes on him. "I'll wait for you no matter how long it would take."
She was still talking to him when Sky arrived to look after Travis in behalf of her. "Go and get ready for work. I will take care of Travis for you." Sky told her, placing some food containers inside the mini refrigerator.
Jillyanna brought her change of clothes and other toiletries inside the bathroom to take a shower and prepare for work. She had been staying in the hospital for almost 2 weeks now but she didn't mind it at all. As much as possible, she wanted to be at his side most of the time.
Jackie stayed in her house during the night after sending her back to the hospital. The same goes for Savannah and Hawk. She didn't have any issue about the night watch since Top was taking guard outside during the night together with other body guards. Whenever a doctor or a nurse would come, he would wake her up so that she can check the personnel on her own. Among all the guards, he was the one that earned Jillyanna's trust.
"Good morning auntie Sky." Savannah greeted Jillyanna's foster mother when she arrived. Hawk was following behind her and slightly bowed his head as his form of greeting.

"Good morning. Have you guys eaten? I brought some food here." Sky asked and offered them breakfast at the same time.
"Thank you auntie but we ate before coming here." Savannah answered her with a smile, refusing her offer politely. "Is Jillyanna taking a bath?"
"Hn. She'll be done in a few minutes."
They chatted about different things while waiting for Jillyanna to come out. Hawk would sometimes say some words but most of the time he was silent.
Just as Jillyanna finished taking her bath and was changing her clothes, Jackie arrived with the food that Auntie Sisi and Auntie Fei prepared. She had been living in Jillyanna's house during her stay. She and Riley refused to leave her side so Riley was traveling everyday between Jillyanna's place and J Entertainment.
When Jillyanna was all set and ready, she came out of the bathroom to dry her hair. "Shein will arrived at 9 o'clock this morning. We will pick him up first before going to the company." She mentioned to them to make sure that there won't be any wasted time.
Jackie and Savannah nodded their head. While Savannah was working as a secretary for her, Jackie was working like an all-around supervisor who checked all departments' activities.
Jillyanna prepared herself quietly, walking to and fro to get her things, eating slowly without a word while keeping an eye on Travis.
"Darling, I'm off to work now. Don't do anything that would scare me, okay? I'll come back as soon as my work is done." she kissed his cheeks and forehead before heading out. "Mom, I'm leaving Travis to your care."
Sky just nodded her head as she sat on the couch to watch over their patient.
Jillyanna, Savannah and Jackie got into their waiting car and had the driver sent them to the airport first. It wasn't a long ride and Shein wasn't their yet. They waited for few more minutes before Jillyanna got a call.

"Sis, I just arrived. Are you here already?" Shein asked on the other line cheerfully. It was obvious that he was happy and excited to be with her.
"Hn. We have arrived. Jackie will come and find you. I can't go out of the car." Jillyanna answered at the same, she was giving signal to Jackie that he arrived already. Jackie went out and looked for their younger brother.
"I don't see her." Shein mumbled on the phone as he looked around the place to find Jackie. After making a 360° turn, he found Jackie right in front of him. "God! Don't scare me!" he shouted with his hands on his chest, clearly shocked from her sudden appearance.
That was why he wanted to find her first because she would always sneak around him, giving him a shock that he thought he would have a heart attack.
"I believe she found you already. I'll end the call now." Jillyanna stated knowing that the man would still diss Jackie for shocking him.
Another five minutes passed before a panting Shein and Jackie got inside the car as quick as they can. "Those girls are crazy! How could they think of you as an actor? Surely, that was just a reason to get close to you."
"I don't care about them. Where's Riley?" Shein asked immediately when he didn't see her inside the car.
"Looking for her as soon as you got in when you've been with her all your life. Won't you look for me?" Jillyanna teased the young man who was blushing from his neck up to his face and ear.
Shein still smiled and reached over her seat to give Jillyanna a warm hug. "I am glad you remained strong." he patted her back gently like how she did to him in the past.
His words made Jillyanna cry and pour her grievances in his arms. "Hn. I have to. For the sake of my baby and everyone."
"Sis is really admirable. Stop crying already because you look ugly." This earned him a pinch on his face from Jillyanna.
"Who do you think made me cry? And you dare tell me I am ugly?!" Jillyanna pinched his face and stretched it in front of her. She started to smile already.
"Aahh! Oww! It hurts! I won't say you are ugly anymore. I won't say it even if it is true. Aahh! Ouchie! Ow." he massaged his face when Jillyanna let go of him and went back to his seat. "You're a meanie, sis."

Mage Among Superheroes
Turlough is a mage. He also happens to be an orc, generally lauded as being less intelligent than humans. He was unfortunately born with the Curse of the Barbarian, meaning that he can’t level up except through combat- which greatly hinders his ability to show he can be a proper mage. In a world with necromancers, dragons, invading armies, and all sorts of other monsters he would still be able to advance quickly, but unfortuantely… that world is not his world. An unprecedented peace reigns across the land, and in the last several decades there’s been little use for people capable of fighting- and thus little reason for people to fight him. So when he sees a portal in his master’s study he takes it, hoping to find a horde of demons or something equally foolish to combat at low level. But instead he ends up in a strange city full of skyscrapers and people running around in colorful outfits. Superheroes- and of course supervillains as well. What dangers and opportunities could await him in such a strange and unfamiliar world? Only time will tell. Inspired by many things in the superhero genre, and Super Minion specifically- though while the setting will share some standard elements, it is an original setting that will hopefully be as engaging as many of the other universes. Schedule: One chapter each Monday/Thursday, approx. 2000 words.
