Alvina Miller had a golden rule during her menses, and that was that she would definitely experience pain on the first day. With a single pain, she would feel it for the most part of the day.
The other girls said that red sugar worked, but it didn't. She had no choice but to take painkillers, but she couldn't take them often, either. And she had to bear them by willpower many times, because she knew it would only take half a day.
When she woke up from her daze, she found that the man beside her was preparing for her to wear to work. He himself was already dressed neatly in a black suit with a white shirt.
"How about you take a leave of absence today? I see that you're constantly rubbing your stomach. Will it hurt?" The man squatted by the bed, just in time to look at her as she turned around. The man's gentle voice was filled with heartache.
"No need, I'm busy at the end of the year. I can't take a leave of absence at this time. Besides, I have a few days before I can have holidays!" Her beautiful eyes instantly lit up when she thought about the new year holiday that was about to come.
"Don't try to be brave. If your body doesn't allow it, then stay at home and don't go out. I'll get someone to help you ask for a leave of absence!" Seeing her pale face, Joseph Grant's tone of voice instantly turned overbearing. He extended a hand to wipe the long hair on her forehead, and wiped away the fine sweat on her forehead.
"Then help me ask for a half—day off, I'll come over in the afternoon!" She'll be all right for the rest of the morning.
"Why does it hurt?" Joseph Grant was such a straight faced man, he didn't understand anything about females at all. He thought that menses was just a normal phenomenon during their growth period, but now he frowned, looking at her pitiful appearance, he was very surprised.
Alvina Miller forced a smile, "I want to know that too. I heard that after having a child, it would stop hurting. I don't know if it's true or not, but it made me want to quickly have a child!"
Joseph Grant's handsome face froze and he couldn't help but laugh, "How can you have children this fast? I'll find a doctor for you to look for.”
"No need, don't worry about me, I'm only in pain for a little while. Really, hurry up and go to work." Seeing Joseph Grant squatting by the bed and not leaving, Alvina Miller started to worry for him.
Joseph Grant was unwilling to leave. Even though he knew that his convoy had been waiting downstairs since long ago and that he had an important meeting in the afternoon so he couldn't be late, he didn't want to leave her.
"Alvina, do you want my mother to take care of you?" The man thought for a moment and suddenly said.
"No …No need, I haven't even met your mother yet. If you let her come, I will be very nervous and definitely not stop the pain." Alvina Miller anxiously blurted out a rejection, which startled the man.
Alvina Miller also felt that her answer was too quick, and she immediately laughed embarrassedly: "You should hurry up and leave, don't be late!"
"Fine, call me anytime if you need anything. Don't hold on by yourself. You can call me if you want. I'll get someone to bring it to you!" Only then did Joseph Grant stand up, but he still bent over and lightly kissed her forehead, then looked at her deeply one last time before turning around and leaving.
Alvina Miller curled up in bed, feeling the love of a man, she instantly felt her abdominal pain lessen. As expected, love could cure all bad moods.
Although Alvina Miller didn't say what she wanted, Joseph Grant found out something. He got someone to send her some Red Sugar Ginger Tea to drink, and also sent his rich nutritious bird's nest porridge and all kinds of food that could warm her stomach.
