Chasing After My Wife Chapter 228
Advertisement
'Did I say something wrong?' Riley asked herself as she watched Savannah and Hawk became worried. 'I just answered their question so it doesn't matter.' she hurriedly dismissed her idea and talked to Jillyanna again.
"Sis, can I really apply for the entertainment company?" Riley asked her again. "Is that really possible?"
"It is possible but I don't know if they will hire you." Jillyanna scoffed at her with a faint smile. She started to forget her worry but time-to-time she'll remember Travis and worry again.
Wynwyn approached Riley and gave her calling card. "If you are not joking and if you really want to join us, I am willing to be your personal manager."
"Heh! You just know she'd be a potential star which is why you wanted her." Diego commented on the side making Wynwyn kicked his leg.
Riley accepted the card and checked the address and the phone number. "It's far." she whispered to herself but Jillyanna read the words on his lips and smiled.
"It is far but you will definitely like it there. Travis and I would also visit the place sometimes." If Riley would want to work in an entertainment industry, she would never stop her. She wanted them to grow up and use their wings to fly not to clip their wings and let them rooted on the ground.
"How about you Jackie?" Riley asked her sister who was standing beside her. "Won't you come with me?"
"I am not a good actress like you and I hate acting." Jackie waved her hand dismissively. "I hate anything that has to do with entertainment."
Riley and Wynwyn started discussing what works will there be for her if she joined J Entertainment. Diego also left to find Cheska who was still working.

"Should we let Winter know?" Savannah asked Hawk who was sitting beside her. "Well, I think it is fine if we don't. She didn't have any relationship with him after all and she refused to remember anything from her past."
"Hn. Let's keep it a secret. If Gabriel wanted her to know, he would've told her before they parted their ways." Hawk replied to her.
So the discussion ended and they decided to keep it a secret. If Gabriel didn't want her to know, then there's no need to say anything.
"You didn't introduce Lucian to them?" Cielo asked Jillyanna while picking up her bag.
"No need. They knew who Lucian is from the cases he handled." Jillyanna stated to her sister. "Don't forget the meeting next week." she reminded Cielo which the latter nodded her head.
Sky and Alex left the room too since they wanted to give her space. They didn't want to disturb her rest anymore.
"Call me whenever you are ready." Wynwyn told Riley before leaving as well. "Take care Jill. Your entertainment will be looking forward to see you and Travis again."
"Thanks for all your help Wyn." Jillyanna responded to her.
"No worries. Have a plenty of rest." Wynwyn waved her hand and left them.
"I'll stand guard outside Travis room again." Hawk volunteered and left. He was always silent and would seldom speak to other people.
"Hn. Let me know if anything happens." Jillyanna told him before he went out of the room.
Now only the four girls were left. Jillyanna climbed down from her hospital bed and went to the comfort room to wash her face.
Days had passed and Jillyanna continued to work as the new CEO while Travis continued to sleep in the ICU. He was put under close monitoring since he had been convulsing multiple times. His face was gaunt and he looked terribly pale.

She was already accustomed to living in the hospital just to be with him. A week had passed before he was sent back to his VIP room after his condition stabilized.
Jillyanna came back with a bouquet of fresh flowers in her arms from the same shop that he bought the flowers for her before.
She kissed his emaciated face before arranging the flowers in a vase. "Darling, do you remember these flowers? I remember you bought these for me before. I threw it at first but I realized it would be a waste to throw a beautiful gift. So I ended keeping your first bouquet of flowers for me."
She kept on talking to him while placing each flower inside the vase carefully. After which, she went to the bathroom and put a good amount of water to keep them alive for few more days.
"Honey, I will be meeting Shein tomorrow. You really have to wake up soon so you could see the people I care about. I've been telling you my dark past but you should also see the bright side." She spoke to him like he could hear her.
This had been her new routine now. She would kiss him goodbye in the morning before going to work and when she came back, she will talk to him about different things.
During weekends, she will spend her whole day with him, wiping him clean and continue her crochet when she didn't have anything to do.
Riley decided to participate in a new shampoo advertisement with the help of Wynwyn. It was really a shock to everyone that the head of their PR department will take someone under her wings.
"Will Riley come to pick him up?" Jackie asked Jillyanna while she removed her coat and placed it on the couch.
"Tomorrow is the shoot for the advertisement so I don't think she can. You can visit her though. I'm sure she'll be happy."
Savannah came in with some food for Hawk and Jackie. "I didn't buy anything for you." she told Jillyanna with apologetic look.
Jillyanna just smiled at her while waving her hand. "It is fine. Auntie Sisi is on her way already and Travis won't allow me to eat the food outside."
"I have posted the notice by the way for the job hiring. Will you be there during interview?" Savannah asked her while placing the food on the table.
"Of course. I will be checking who will dare to send a mole over the company." Jillyanna snickered and a cold glint flickered in her eyes.

I think about writing and I get physically ill and ache in ways that transcend the physical. I want to want to write, but I cannot find the energy. Life events, combined with apparently thin-skin when it comes to personal attacks on this platform, make it impossible for me. The messages, comments, and reviews I recieve(d) were so detrimental to my mental health that I've already removed one story from this website. This one remains up only because the criticisms located in this work are about my writing, and not personal attacks.I just felt like I should put something out there for anyone who is thinking about starting this story. It is not completed. I don't know that it ever will be at this point. I have lost my muse.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Not everything in this world is natural, and it's only natural to fear the unnatural. Fortunately for Manning, he was natural. Unfortunately, he found himself to be in a very unnatural state. Manning was trapped inside of a gemstone, called a dungeon core. Luckily for Manning, he found himself capable of using his newly found unnatural power to make a nature filled forest. With the help of Cara, his unnatural roommate, and Ash, his nature spirit companion, Manning dreams of covering the continent with the most beautiful and dangerous forest it has ever seen. His only other goals are to protect himself and Cara, and if he could ever remember, recover his memories. This is my first time attempting to write anything. Updates whenever I can find the energy and desire to write.

Live by the Sword
--Follow a bandit prone to making poor choices in life. He lives in a somewhat medieval age where steel is king, blood is shed fairly lightly, and weakness gets you punished fast. But that's okay. As long as he has his sword, he'll be fine. Right? --This story is tragic and contains some depictions of violence and nudity. The attitudes of the characters don't represent my views and some of them are highly questionable. Due to these reasons, I've flagged the story as adult content. --I've been working on Live by the Sword since as far back as 2012 and it is my first actual effort at completing a book. Maybe I'll stick with it and there will be paperbacks of it some day. Who knows. Either way, I hope the words I tell give you amusement and perhaps some cause to think. Cheers.
