###Chapter 296 Mystery Man - Part 8

With that, he got up and went downstairs.

I was stupefied for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Jordan Astley didn't come back until the evening. Jon took the four seasons away. I lay down all day and couldn't sleep.

When he came back, it was already early in the morning, and he frowned slightly when he saw that I was still awake. "Still up?"

"I'm going to bed."

He graciously said, "Then turn off the lights so you could rest." He came up to me and kissed me on the forehead gently.

In a low voice, he said, "I'm going to go out. I may go to M country. I'll be back tomorrow afternoon. Have a good Rest. Mrs. Marcela came over. Tell her what you want to eat. Have a good rest. Don't stay up late, or I'll force you to take you to the hospital when I come back."

"What's the matter? It's very late now, why are you going to M country?"

He brushed my hair and said in a gentle voice, "A little thing, just go over there."

I twist my eyebrow, usually, if it wasn't a big deal, he basically doesn't come to tell me, but sends me a message. Today, he specially came back and told me that it was probably more serious.

Holding him, I said, "What's the matter?"

He laughed and kissed me on the forehead. "Are you going to give me a farewell gift?"

"Jordan Astley, you rascal!"

He smiled, "I am your husband, this is not called hooligans, called fun, good health at home when I come back to make up for me!"

This man, really, said everything so calmly.

Seeing that I blushed, he said no more and said, "Be careful to wait for me downstairs, have a good rest, and wait for me to come back!"

He took a coat and went out with a few simple things. I was going to follow him and send him down.

He pressed me gently on the bed and said, "Have a good rest and be obedient!"

Not long after he went downstairs, there was the sound of the engine start, and he drove the car away.

I lay in bed, as expected, I could hardly fall asleep, especially if Jordan was not there, I couldn't fall asleep even more.

I stayed up until dawn and finally dared to stand up. When I got up, I felt dizzy.

Sister-in-law Marcela Yeardly was tidying up in the kitchen, and when she saw me stumbling, she hurriedly came forward to help me.

"Ivelle, you didn't sleep last night. Why are your eyes so big and dark?"

I pinched my eyebrows, and my shoulders and waist were sore. I sat down in a chair and looked at sister-in-law Marcela and said, "Sister-in-law Marcela, please pour me a glass of water."

She nodded again and again, poured me water, watched me drink a few mouthfuls, and then said, "I'll cook some soup for you later, and when you're done, you'll go back to your bedroom and have a good rest. If you can't, I'll accompany you to the hospital."

My shoulders were so sore that I probably didn't have a good rest. I nodded slightly.

I took out my cell phone and called Kyle Branson, and she picked up after a few ring.

"Boss Ivelle, I'll be there in about an hour. Something happened at home, so I may be late for a few minutes."

I originally asked her out yesterday, but because of my health, it has been delayed.

Checking the phone, I gasped and said, "I may not be able to go today, you may need to come to the landscape to live here."

She paused and nodded, "Good!"

"When you come, go to the hospital for me, prescribe some sleeping pills and bring them to me."

"What's the matter?"

"I've been having insomnia!" There was no way to keep going like this.

She paused, then said, "I'll be there in thirty minutes."

After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Marcela Yeardly cooked some porridge. Seeing that I was not in the mood, she was worried and said, "Why don't I accompany you to the hospital?"

I shook my head and said, "No!" This kind of thing was caused by a lack of sleep. In the end, the doctor would just tell me to rest, and nothing else.

After a pause, I looked at Sister Marcela Yeardly and said, "By the way, I have a friend coming over later. I will order some fruit and cakes at noon."

She nodded and told me to eat my breakfast.

Because I lack sleep, I can hardly eat anything. After a few mouthfuls, I was no longer in the mood to eat.

I simply sat in the hall watching TV. When Kyle Branson came, she saw that I had serious dark circles under his eyes and said, "Haven't you been resting recently? What is it? "

I pinched my eyebrows and said, "Jordan is going to hire a secretary at the headquarters in the capital. Are you interested?"

She was stunned for a moment and said in surprise, "Secretary to the president? Doesn't Boss Astley already have Felix Steward? Besides, Mr. Astley doesn't seem to use female secretaries all the time."

I took a sip of water and my head buzzed. "The company is going to expand after the new year, and Felix Stewart can't take care of some small things. After all the things you have for Astley, and you know his temper, so it's easier to work with him!"

She wondered, "Ms. Ivelle, your work in Badger is not hectic now. You can go back to Astley's to work directly. Why don't you?"

"Indeed, I don't have to worry too much now, but I won't get into Astley again. I have my own plan. Of course, you can refuse if you don't want to!"

She shook her head. "It's not that I don't want to work in Astley. To put it bluntly, I can't even compare with a receptionist. I'm very lucky to be Jordan's secretary, but Mrs. Ivelle, the Biden family doesn't need me."

"No need!" I did what I had to do, and everything that should be punished has been punished.

Now that a new year has passed, we have to start all over again.

Hearing what I said, she was stupefied, handed me the sleeping pills she had brought, and paused. "Boss Brad and Boss Astley don't know much about chess here. According to him, Boss Brad liked a girl when he was a teenager. That girl was Boss Jordan's cousin. Later, the girl did not know why she jumped off a building and committed suicide. It was quite far away. Almost no one in the Astley family mentioned it, so it was quite a long time ago. Boss Brad probably didn't let it go, so he wanted to create some trouble for Boss Brad's work. "

I can't help frowning, "Just making a little trouble?" The feelings of youth have been calculated for more than ten years.

Besides, cousin? Wasn't Uncle Astley's family childless?

What?

How to get this thing over and over again was complicated.

She said graciously, paused, and looked at me. "Eva Blakeley has followed me recently. It seems that apart from being close to Mr. Brad, she doesn't seem to have contacted anyone else, but some time ago, she went to the capital. I don't know exactly what to do."

"Do you still go to the capital after the Spring Festival?"

She nodded. "She must have been in touch with Badger's family. Aaron had an assistant named Luna Malfoy."

I said, "Mrs. Marcela cooked the meal, and when I ate, I took sleeping pills. As soon as the effect came, I went straight back to my room."

During this sleep, I didn't wake up until the wee hours of the morning, and Mrs. Marcela Yeardly seemed to have been waiting for me to wake up.
