CEO's Reborn Wife

”Good evening, Chief Black!” Jane Sampson picked up the mobile phone, sat down on a chair, and gave a bright smile to James Black in the phone, ”Haven’t seen your lovely Mrs. Black all day, do you miss her a lot?”

James Black was sitting in his office, looking at Jane Sampson through the mobile phone, listening to her playful words, and couldn’t help but chuckle softly.

Last night, she wasn’t by his side, and without his octopus-like wife holding him to sleep, James Black indeed felt a bit unaccustomed.

When he woke up in the morning, he instinctively reached out to grab the person next to him, only to find empty space, which startled him into sitting up immediately, calling Jane Sampson’s name twice, and then he realized that Jane Sampson had gone abroad.

”Dry your hair, and we’ll talk while you do.” James Black noticed that Jane Sampson’s hair was still dripping and slightly furrowed his eyebrows.

It’s a pity he wasn’t next to her; otherwise, he could have helped blow dry her hair.

Jane Sampson was lazy, and sometimes it showed in the bad habit of not blow-drying her hair immediately after washing it.

James Black didn’t speak much, so in one video call, it was mostly Jane Sampson chattering away.

Jane Sampson was a little chatterbox, while James Black was a good listener.

He cared about Jane Sampson, so he would ask if she was tired from sitting on the airplane for more than ten hours, whether she liked her dinner, and whether she bought anything she liked while shopping in the evening.

These little things in life were part of Jane Sampson’s chatter, which she found amusing, and James Black listened very attentively.

Sometimes, he would respond to her a couple of times.

This conversation seemed to be just a few topics, but it actually lasted for more than an hour.

Until Jane Sampson’s mobile phone battery was running low and started frequently warning of low battery, James Black urged Jane Sampson to put the phone down to charge and dry her hair before ending the video call.

On her end, Jane Sampson obediently followed James Black’s advice and went to blow-dry her hair.

James Black then sent a text message to Brooke Black, asking if Brooke had rested yet.

After Brooke replied, James Black called her directly.

It wasn’t about anything else, just purely to ask about the results of Jane Sampson’s afternoon examination.

James hadn’t asked Jane Sampson on the phone earlier, because he knew her character was to report only good news and not worry others.

Even if there were any bad things, Jane Sampson wouldn’t tell him.

She didn’t want anyone to worry about her or to cause any trouble for others.

So, James Black simply didn’t ask Jane Sampson.

Brooke Black relayed the dean’s words to James Black verbatim and then said, ”Your wife seems happy and carefree the whole day, smiling at everyone, while her younger brother almost cried when he came out of the consultation room hugging her.”

”James, be good to your wife, be more accommodating to her, and don’t argue with her, got it?” Brooke Black couldn’t help but speak a few good words on behalf of Jane Sampson, ”Such a pretty girl, encountering such a thing, and never letting anyone see when she’s upset. As a girl, knowing she’ll have a scar on her body, it’s hard for her in her heart.”

”Hmm.” James Black’s heart sank slightly as he responded with a hum.

Jane Sampson had scheduled a scar repair surgery for ten o’clock the next morning. The three of them arrived at the hospital at 9:40, finding Julie Sampson and Mother Sampson already waiting there.
