Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 1026

"Are you alright, Jeremy? Let me know if you feel sick. Don't keep it to yourself," Miley expressed her concern.

Remaining by his side, she noticed how pale he looked. He seemed to have aged overnight, which pained her. "Remember the time you insisted on delivering a speech at a school despite having appendicitis? You fainted from pain as soon as you left the stage.

"The doctor later said you could have died if you hadn't been rushed to the hospital in time. You always make me worry. You need to take better care of yourself."

"It's okay. I know you'll take care of me." Jeremy smilingly pinched Miley's cheek.

"I'm being serious!" Miley grumbled and playfully poked him on the waist.

Jeremy nonchalantly said, "I felt fine except for a bit of dizziness and fatigue. I'll have my secretary buy two bowls of vegetable soup—one for me and one for you. You will need it."

Alyssa entered the room and joked, "Jeremy, you should get something meatier with higher iron content. Vegetable soup won't cut it. Save the soups for when Miley gives birth."

"Lyse, stop it. We don't plan to have kids yet," Miley protested, blushing and pursing her lips.

"Lyse isn't wrong. Now that the election's over and our careers are set, it's time to add a new family member." Jeremy caressed Miley's fingers. "I know you love kids, but you delay having one out of consideration for my career.

"You suffered a lot over the years, running around the nation with me. I feel sorry for that, and I promise you better days from now on."

"Mr. Shields, what are you talking about?" Leaning against Jeremy, Miley gently caressed his face with a sweet and bashful smile. "I willingly followed you around. You owe me nothing. In fact, you have given me more than I could ever ask for."

Touched, Jeremy sat up in bed and held Miley by the back of her neck as he kissed her. Miley, who had been rather reserved in Alyssa's presence, slowly submitted herself to Jeremy's advance and responded passionately.

Seeing that, Alyssa turned around and went to a corner. She was close to tears, happy for Miley's marital bliss.

Winston had once been against Jeremy and Miley's relationship. Even Alyssa had her worries, knowing that Miley had to settle down abroad. As time passed, Alyssa acknowledged the couple's loving relationship, reminiscent of old-school love.

After cuddling for a while, Miley's cheeks were as red as a tomato. Jeremy, however, appeared calm and unfazed as he spoke to Alyssa with Miley in his arms, "Lyse, fret not. I called the Tsulian King last night. He assured me he had appointed a new police chief to take over the case and go after Inigo Montoye.

"Once Inigo Montoye is arrested, we will interrogate him to uncover the truth behind the attack against Jonah and Jasper."

Despite their ten-year difference, Alyssa always felt amazed and grateful that Jeremy got along well with Jonah. Even after Jeremy was elected as the president of Kontina, he remained humble around the Taylor family.

"Thank you, Jeremy. Thanks for donating your blood to Jasper. Thank you." Overwhelmed by gratitude, Alyssa fumbled for words.
