Chasing After My Wife Chapter 262
Advertisement
Jillyanna returned to her house and saw the progress of the extension that Travis proposed to her. Some of the rooms were already done and the interior designers were busy looking for furnitures and other stuff.
"Good morning Mrs. Madrigal." greeted one of the workers who saw her come home. Jillyanna just smiled faintly to return the greeting. She's hasn't been home since the accident and most of the time it was Hawk or Savannah who checked the progress of the construction.
Jillyanna saw the garden, blooming with flowers of different kinds. Butterflies were hovering over them and the fragrance of the flowers gave the air a sweet scent. "I miss this home." she uttered to herself while walking over to the flowers that the nannies took care of.
"Jillyanna! You are back!" It was Valkyrie who saw her standing in the garden. "Come inside. It's dusty here because of the construction."
Jillyanna nodded her head and went inside her house. "Where are the pictures?"
"Oh, we placed it on your bed upstairs." Valkyrie answered her as they walk back inside the house.
"Will you stay for lunch?" Brown asked who came out from the kitchen with an apple in his hand.
"Yes. I'll go back to the hospital in the evening."
"Why is that? Did something happened?" Valkyrie asked her upon seeing the sad look on her face.
"Nothing. I just have something to do here."
"I see." Both Brown and Valkyrie nodded their heads but they didn't believe her. Something must have really happened!
"I'll leave you guys alone. I still need to see the pictures." Jillyanna turned around and went upstairs without waiting for their reply. She got inside her room and locked it, locking herself from the outside world.

She saw the frames lying on her bed but she couldn't bring herself to open them. They kept reminding her of how Travis sacrificed himself to save her, almost losing his life in the process. She didn't want to see them for now. She didn't want to be reminded of how incapable she was.
She carried the frames one by one and placed them on the floor, beside her vanity mirror. She placed a soft cushion on the side to stop it from falling or from sliding off the floor.
When she stood up, she saw herself on the mirror and the small bump of her stomach. "My child, you are turning three months old and yet your father isn't waking up to see us. Is he still upset because of what I said to Shein? Is he taking his revenge on me? Whatever."
Jillyanna dispelled all her negative thoughts regarding Travis. She took her bathroom that she hadn't used for a long time and took a warm bath. She enjoyed her time inside her bath tub and cleaned herself thoroughly.
Little did she know, Travis woke up from his slumber. He looked around him to process what was going on again. There was no one inside the room but he found several things on the couch, on the small table and a little closet with women's clothes in it.
'So I am really in the hospital.' he thought to himself while shifting his gaze outside the window. He could see that it was almost noon time. He didn't make any sound or move on his place. He remained stationary while trying to fight off his sleepiness again.
'I am so weak. I couldn't even stay awake for a long time.' he mentally added to himself, waiting for someone to come. But there's no one.

Travis still wanted to stay awake but his eyelids were so heavy he couldn't seem to open them. By then, he heard a someone who was using a bathroom but he can't wake himself up. He fell unconscious again without seeing anyone this time.
Jillyanna brought her laptop with her but she didn't open it. She didn't want to be disappointed and she didn't want to be distracted. She wanted to give herself a piece of mind to think clearly of her situation.
She came out of the bathroom with her bath robe on and a towel was wrapped around her head to absorb the remaining water off from her hair.
"Should I really go abroad or ask the doctor to come over? If I go there, everyone will be worried and pretty sure, they would think I'll escape from him. If I ask the doctor to come over, they would know about my condition and make a fuss out of it." She sighed deeply before lying on her bed with her arms spread wide open. She was staring into space again with her empty mind.
Her phone rang, startling her and pulling her back into reality. She walked to the couch and opened her bag to find an unknown number calling her.
She answered the phone and a gruff voice of an old man came to speak to her. "Ms. Xavier, I heard you asked for my contact information from the hospital. When I heard your name, I asked them to give me your contact details instead. If I remember correctly, you are Elizabeth's daughter, right?"
"Is this Dr. Sweden?"
"Yes, it's me. Do you have time now to talk with me?"
"Yes doc. I've been wanting to talk to you for a long time."
"What is it that you need me for?" Dr. Sweden asked on the other line. He was holding Jillyanna's information from over a decade already, waiting for her to find him.
Jillyanna took a long breath and released it abruptly to calm her beating heart. She needed to prepare herself mentally for this. "Doc, I want to know if I can have the operation after giving birth? I was once told to get a surgery on my 23rd birthday and it's few months from now. But I cannot risk my child. I want to keep my baby and I can still hold on until I give birth to my child." Jillyanna was so nervous that she spoke in a hurry and wasn't sure if the doctor got his point.

The Calculator - Supervillainess Time Loop
What makes a terrifying villain? Is it ruthlessness? Is it how powerful they are and how many buildings they can down in one blow? Is it how hard they are to kill, contain, or get rid of in any manner? Is it their knowledge of a hero’s true identity in a world where secrets must be kept? Or is it perhaps how they seem to be perfect in all their actions, defeating the hero at every step of the way throughout to the last one, only to humiliate them one last time before declaring themselves the winner in the grand scheme of things? Isabella Blair is perfect. She knows all your moves before you even make them. All your ambushes are faced with traps and she dodges all your blows like it’s child’s play. Catching her is impossible because she’s always ten steps ahead of you. She says she calculated everything, but she messes up in every fight. She loses far more than she wins, sometimes a hundred times for just one small victory. Yet, she is perfect. How is that possible, you may ask. That’s because she has the uncanny ability to return to the past whenever she makes a mistake. All that’s left in the end can only be what’s perfect if all the realities in which you’ve lost are gone, after all. And that makes for one hell of a terrifying profile. Crossposting on ScribbleHub, SpaceBattles, and Wattpad. Don't mind the "Pre-Rewrite" Volume. It is there for reference until the story catches up to the chapter count via the Rewrite (and to justify the current reviews as there would be no context to them otherwise). If you are a first-time reader, feel free to start from the other Volume.
