Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue novel Chapter 1582

All of Julien's anger had dissipated in an instant.

"You must be exhausted from the past couple of days of working. You haven't had dinner yet, have you?" Jonah held up a plastic bag in his hand.

He continued, "I remembered that you mentioned you don't usually eat carbs. Instead, you have fried chicken to reward yourself when you're under a lot of stress and tired. So I've brought you some fried chicken. I don't know what flavor you like, so I bought several."

Julien swallowed hungrily.

In the end, he still let Jonah enter the office.

But to save his pride, Julien put on a poker face and sat back in his chair, refusing to look at Jonah. "There's no need to be so polite, Mr. Jonah. Helping the sick and injured is my duty as a doctor, so I'll always perform to my best."

"Is someone angry?" Jonah asked instead, ignoring how distant Julien was being.

Julien blinked quickly. "W-Who's angry here? Not me."

"If you weren't angry, why were you crying?"

Julien's heart pounded wildly, and his cheeks flushed. He instinctively glanced at the mirror on the wall.

In the reflection, Julien's lips were pulled tight and cheeks extremely flushed, looking like someone's angry wife.

Jonah chuckled silently and took out the boxes of fried chicken, arranging them in front of Julien. He even set the utensils and tissues down neatly by the side.

"You've worked really hard these past few days," Jonah rasped, showing some self-restraint.

Julien's heart trembled as he met Jonah's eyes.
