Chasing After My Wife Chapter 364
Advertisement
When Jillyanna woke up, Travis was sitting on a chair beside her bed. She looked around and found herself in a familiar clinic that they just toured a while ago.
"Did..d-did I just collapsed?!" she asked Travis in surprise and seeing the concern and worry on his face confirmed her guess.
"From now on, everything will be handled by me. You are not allowed to deal with any affairs if it is not concerning your health. You will have to take a rest until you give birth." Travis stated in a calm yet determined manner. He would never let it happen again. He never liked the idea of seeing her collapse in the blink of an eye.
"Don't give me an ultimatum. I am perfectly fine." Jillyanna refuted knowing that she wouldn't be able to endure staying at home and doing nothing. "I'm sorry for making you worry."
Travis looked at her, his eyes restless and he couldn't seem to get her pale face out of his mind. "Jill, please let me take care of you. You don't know how scary it was for me when you suddenly collapsed. I thought you'd leave me for sure."
Jillyanna put her index finger on his lips to stop him from talking. "I know how you feel. Didn't it happen to you not long ago? Didn't you lie in bed for a whole month? I know it's scary but I'd be bored to death if I won't do anything."
Indeed, Jillyanna was right. It was just few months back that he was bed-ridden with no assurance of making it back to the present. She must have been scared at that time.
Since he couldn't refute what she just said, Travis thought of other things that would make Jillyanna stay at home and rest herself.

"Let's go home first. Hawk drove the car in front of the orphanage and is waiting for us." He helped Jillyanna stand on her feet and held her shoulder and waist to keep her steady. "Are you feeling dizzy?"
"No. I am fine now." Jillyanna assured him and smile. When she saw Travis still frowning, she stopped walking and looked at him. "I am really fine. Stop frowning already."
"I just can't help it." Travis sighed and without letting her know what he was about to do, he bent over and placed his one hand behind her knees and the other on her back. He carried her off to the car outside, awaiting them.
Jillyanna just wrapped her arms around his neck and nuzzled her face on his chest. His warmth and masculine scent were really comforting her.
Travis was about to put her down on the back seat when she tightened her hold on him. "Oh? My dear wife is actually being sweet today. You don't want me to put you down?" Jillyanna shook her head faintly making Travis chuckled this time.
He carefully went inside the car with Jillyanna still in his arms.
"Wow! That big brother carried the big sister. He is very strong." one of the kids who were playing outside saw them and exclaimed.
"The big sister was not feeling well that is why the big brother carried her." the young social worker explained to the child who was still looking at the car.
"If my brothers and sisters get sick, I will also carry them. I'm super extra very strong." the young child stated and was even showing his tender arms.
The social worker just smiled and rubbed the boy's small head.
On the other hand, Atty. Lewis was gave Travis few reminders before he would officially take over the company on Monday. After talking for a few minutes, he watched the car go with a relieved heart. He could finally relax his brain and heart knowing that the company was now in good hands.

Inside the car, Jillyanna didn't mind Savannah and Hawk at all as she was still snuggling in her husband's warm arms.
"Now that I think about it clearly, I agree to taking a rest." Jillyanna murmured in his arms while looking up at him.
Travis was gently caressing her hair and tucking in those that came to her face behind her ear. "But? I can sense that there is a 'but' after your statement."
"But I'll go back home to our house."
"What about Winter?"
"She's having a good start with Gabriel now. If she's willing to come with me, I'll bring her home. If she wanted to stay, then Gabriel will be the one to take care of him."
"Alright. As long as you take a rest and stay at home, I don't really mind. I don't want you to accompany me to the office. It's stressful to see so much work on my desk and I know you would want to help me. So just be good this time and stay at home, okay?"
Even if she didn't want to, Jillyanna still nodded her head and agreed to his condition. "I have something to give you. I always forget it so please remind me once we get home." she whispered which was enough for him to hear.
"What could it be? I'm quite excited." Travis murmured under his breath before kissing her eyes, her eyebrows and her nose.
Jillyanna giggled and covered his mouth with her hand. "It tickles."
"Really? I don't think so." Travis retorted as Jillyanna sat up straight on his lap.
"It does. Let me do it to you in return." Jillyanna held his face and stared directly into his eyes. "Thank you for taking care of me." she states before kissing his right eye. "Thank you for taking care of the people who are important to me." she added before kissing his left eye. "Thank you for taking over my father's company." this corresponds to a kiss on his right eyebrow. "Thank you for understanding me." she kissed his left eyebrow as she said these words. "Thank you for always being there for me." she kissed the tip of his nose as she mentioned this to him with utmost sincerity and gratitude. "I love you Travis." she kissed his forehead before smiling happily at him. "I will always stay with you until death do us part." she kissed her favorite spot which was his chin.
Travis raised his eyebrow but Jillyanna was just blinking her eyes at him. "Didn't you miss another part? Where's my kiss on the lips?"
Jillyanna scratched her face awkwardly and grinned at him. "I ran out of words to say."
"Then why did you kiss my chin instead of my lips?" Travis sulked while holding her steady on her waist.
"Because I like kissing your chin and your jaw. Beside, I'm afraid that you wouldn't stop if I start kissing you. So, I might as well just behave myself and avoid your lips."
Travis really didn't know whether to laugh or cry at her silly response. In the end, he just stole a light kiss on her lips.

The Errant Otherworlder Watanabe
“In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death, taxes and trucks whom transport men to other worlds.” Meet our titular protagonist Haruto Watanabe, a man who has all the markings of a good protagonist for a generic portal fantasy story. As an overworked office worker, to escape from the grips of crippling capitalist alienation, he had taken up to reading many stories where young men like him were transported to other worlds and enjoyed their lives at a most leisurely pace. Armed with genre-awareness and (what he believes to be) a marketable personality which would make him an easy audience self-insert, he longed for the day the isekai express would take him to his long-awaited adventure to another world. When the fateful day came, where the fair yet harsh mistress that is the fabled truck took Watanabe on one last date to the other side, he was most ready to escape his previous life, ready to embark on an errant so great he’d be most overpowered, his heroics so exceptional and his harem so vast that they would barely fit ten or twenty volumes of an overly long novel made by a desperate author looking for quick cash. Lo and behold however, Watanabe instead found himself in a low fantasy world which lacked severely in the department of any game-like systems, cheat skills or easily charmed damsels in distress. In a setting so antithetical to his established genre savviness or any attempts at power fantasy, how will a man like Watanabe, lacking in strength, wits and courage, manage to survive in a land most foreign to him? This is my first time trying to share to the wider world what I’ve written, and I hope you’ll enjoy reading the errantry of Watanabe as much as I enjoy writing about them. I'll be posting one chapter per week on Sundays, along with extra chapters whenever I get the chance to write more than usual.
