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.

A Broken World [Rewrite]
In a world of floating islands of stone in the sky, where rivers flow through the air and defy gravity from one island to another, and ancient ruins can be found containing wonders beyond what can be produced by the lands current inhabitants- a millenia long war rages. In the distant past, beyond recorded history, when the crown of humanity's glory, the city of Uri, had stood whole against the enroaching demon swarms- even as hope seemed lost, a band of heroes, against all odds, managed to steal powerful magical knowledge from the demons. With the demon's forbidden knowledge, in the heart of Uri a new ritual was made. Called, "The Millenial Summoning," the ritual had the power to call a being from another world that would have the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods to the world. With the blessings and power of the new priests, the unstoppable demon hordes were finally halted. A thousand years later, the ritual was used again and "The First Sorceress" was brought to the world. She brought the knowledge of advanced magics, and techniques to find and refine magical talent. With the magic power now added to the battlefield, the stalemate was broken. And for the first time, the demons were pushed back. Another thousand years later, and all of humanites hope for a final victory were dashed. Traitors slew the ritual's participants and took their places, and humanity quaked as The Demon King stepped into the world. His name, his nature, where he came from none of these are known, but what is known is his overwhelming power and his brilliant strategic leadership of the formerly formless hordes. Still, despite their position being even more dire than it has ever been since history has been recorded, humanity held on for another thousand years. Aided, thankfully, by The Demon King not taking the field after the first few years and battles. Now, the ritual is being cast again and a new hero is being summoned. In our world, after nearly three decades of study and hard work, Lucas Jaeger is making his dreams come true. With a double doctorate in both genetics and microbiology, as well as an associates degree in accounting, he has finally, after nearly driving himself mad from stress and sick from overwork, been able to put to together a presentation and ask for a business loan. His long time dream, earned by his own blood and sweat, to start his own commercial genetic company is finally coming to fruition. Lucas's car never left the banks parking lot and Lucas was never seen again in our world. This is a rewrite of "A Broken World." It is basically the same story, just a thousand times better and with decent length chapters!
