Chasing After My Wife Chapter 368
Advertisement
During dinner, Riley who came back from work to prepare for her movie conference, visited Jillyanna with Shein. They brought food for her and Travis who kept her company all this time.
"How are you doing?" Riley asked her while placing the food on the table. Travis made sure that they'd get a spacious room for her since they would be practically living in the hospital for the next three months and probably after giving birth as well.
Jillyanna, as honest as ever, told Riley how bored she was. "Next time, when you come and visit me, bring me my two succulent plants that I placed on the window sill in the study room. I need something to get rid of my boredom."
"Alright. We'll bring it next time." Riley answered with a smile. "Anything else you want us to bring?"
"My laptop and my phone." Jillyanna whispered to Riley but Travis still heard what she said.
"No laptop or phone for you honey." Travis mentioned as he wrap up his work. "We talked about this already."
"Fine. Fine." Jillyanna waved her hand and gestured him to come over. "Let's eat already. I still have to drink my vitamins after this."
Shein didn't talk much but he arranged all the files that Travis left on his table. Since Savannah and the other three men left for a mission, he acted as his temporary secretary. The original secretary that Travis had was now working to manage the new hires and still got the same amount of high pay from when she worked as the President's secretary.
Jillyanna scooped a crab soup and put it on his bowl before scooping another for herself. "Can you buy me a sketch pad and coloring materials tomorrow. I really need something to get rid of my boredom."

"Okay."
"Can you buy me a set of and embroidery materials too?"
"Okay."
"Can I go shopping?"
"No."
"Tsk! I still have to buy the things for the kids at the orphanage." Jillyanna complained before shoving a mouthful of rice in her mouth.
"Let's buy it next week if the doctor says you're doing better." Travis mentioned while getting another side dish for her. "So you better behave and rest."
"Aye Aye Captain." Jillyanna made a salute at him and grinned.
Having simple meal, talking to him and laughing together with him made her felt so happy. She wouldn't ask for more but to at least stay longer with him like this.
Shein and Riley sat on the couch while watching them eat. "Don't you think sister looked rather pale compared to when we visited her yesterday?" Riley asked Shein in a whispered.
"Don't let her know you are worrying for her because it will upset her. She didn't want to bother anyone." Shein responded to his girlfriend while playing on his mobile phone.
"Is there even anything we can do to help her?" Riley whispered again in worry.
"You have to do your best in your work. Show her that she made the right choice of helping us. That's what you can do for her." Shein replied.
They remained seated on the couch without bothering Jillyanna and Travis in their dinner. Before they left home, they ate supper first so that they won't be disturbing the love birds.
After a while, Jillyanna turned to Riley and asked about her work. "When will you have your press conference?"
"Three days from now. It will be held in the ballroom hall of J Entertainment at ten in the morning." Riley answered with a smile. "Will you watch me?"

"How long will it take?" Jillyanna asked her and perhaps she can borrow the laptop that Travis was using.
"It will take about 2 hours." Riley responded. If you can't watch it, it is fine. You don't have to stress yourself over that matter."
Jillyanna nodded her head and shifted her gaze to Travis. "Can I borrow your laptop for 2 hours on that day?"
"Sure."
"Really?"
"Yes. I promised and just for two hours."
Jillyanna beamed happily at him. As much as possible she wanted to see Riley become successful in what she does. She wanted to see her achieve the goals that she set for herself. She wanted to see her become famous in the entertainment industry.
"What are you thinking? Eat your food. It's getting cold." Travis flicked her forehead to bring her back to reality.
Jillyanna pouted her lips. "Come closer for a sec." Jillyanna beckoned him with her index finger.
Travis didn't know what she had in mind but he still leaned closer. Jillyanna covered his eyes with her hand and gave him a gentle peck on his lips. "Love you."
Travis stiffened and took hold of her hand and removed it away from his face. "What's with the sudden sweetness?"
"Hehe nothing. I just want to give you a reward. That's all for now since we can't do anything extreme." Jillyanna teased him knowing that he had been enduring for this whole month and was taking care of himself using his hands.
Travis reached his hand and messily rubbed her hair. "Don't tease me. My poor heart and body has been suffering already."
Jillyanna chuckled and continued to eat her food.
After eating, Shein and Riley took the empty food containers and walked out.
"Jackie will be the one to visit you tomorrow." Riley reminded Jillyanna before sliding the door shut behind them. "I wish and pray that Jillyanna can give birth soon and get herself an operation. I really hate seeing her like this."
"I know what you mean. Let's just pray that she'll get better." Shein responded in an attempt to comfort his girlfriend.
Inside the hospital room, Travis cuddled with Jillyanna after their dinner. "Let's stay like this for a while." He was sitting on a couch near the window while Jillyanna sat on his lap. "I only have one simple wish and that is to stay with you."
"I'll do my best to grant it." Jillyanna whispered in his arms. She can only try and do her best to live, hoping that her heart will not fail her now. 'Just a little longer. Let me stay with him a little longer.'

Revenant
Everyone dies. Not everyone gets back up again afterward. The Deep Paths are a cursed place, meant for those similarly cursed souls whom the gods themselves denied the sweet release of death. Revenants haunt the underworld, wielding forbidden powers and often consuming those who lack the strength to join them. At least, that's the story that parents teach their kids up on the surface. Reshid can't remember what he might have done to deserve such a fate, but he learns quickly that there is more to undeath than the gods and their faithful preach to the living. Revenants have a unique connection to essential magics that allows them to develop their powers in extremely diverse ways. Wherever there is power, though, there are those seeking to wield it, whether they be governments and gods from above, or mythical elder races from below.
