Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 226

I said this purely because I was blind for good looks, which, admittedly, was also my Achilles heel. Had

I not been so blind, I would never have fallen for Jaylan's charm.

The man standing before me was just average looking, nothing like the doting husband I had imagined.

After all, Janice was a real beauty, the type of woman you could pick out in a crowd.

In my mind, if Janice were to choose a man, he'd have to be tall and handsome. But the man standing

before me, Baber, was far from that.

However, his position of power brought with it a certain gravitas. Perhaps it was his long experience in Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

politics that gave him a sense of maturity and wisdom, but he certainly had an imposing intimidating

aura.

Especially those deep, sparkling eyes of his were so profound. His eyes conveyed some thoughts, but

the message he conveyed was one of authority, not of menace.

For some reason, he reminded me of Ronan.

Gevena immediately took a step forward, saying, "Baber, let me introduce you. This is Aaliyah, the

founder of Medsafe Liyah Inc.." Gevena's introduction was unique, emphasizing my position, but

ignoring Jaylan. Then she continued, "She's also a good friend of Janice's, we are all close friends!

She's been looking after Janetta!"

Baber was very gentleman, with instantly stretching out his hand to me, his sharp eyes fixed on my

face, but his gaze was disarming, "Ms. Wilburn, it's a pleasure to meet you! I heard from Janice that

you've not been feeling well, and yet you still take on so much. I really appreciate that!"With just a few

simple sentences, he conveyed information, making you feel valued and respected.

And, his hands were incredibly warm and firm. No wonder he's so successful in his career!

"Mr. Forrest, no need for formalities. As a good friend, it's what we do!" I quickly replied.

"Just call me Baber, like Gevena does."

Only then did Gevena ask me, "How's everything? Is Janetta okay?"

I smiled and quickly shared the good news, "Good news, Janetta's awake! Janice will be relieved!"

"...Aaliyah!" Suddenly, a weak voice came from the bed, and we all rushed over.

Janice had woken up at some point and was staring at me with an anxious look on her face.

I quickly moved over to her bedside, grabbing her hand, "Janice, don't worry! Janetta's awake, all her

health indicators are stable, Hannah's watching over her, and the father-daughter duo has left!

Plus, we've kept the news of her waking up under wraps. I asked Catherine to bring in Dr. Dailey, with

his assistant been following up on everything. Janetta's doing well, so don't worry. Just focus on getting

better so you can go see your sister soon!"

After hearing my words, Janice let out a sigh of relief, closed her eyes for a moment, and seemed

exceptionally tired. A tear rolled down her cheek, quickly disappearing into her hair.

"Don't cry! It's a double celebration, what great news! You're a mom, and your sister's awake! That's

amazing! Janice, it's a boy!” Gevena leaned in and whispered softly, "Aaliyah's taken care of

everything. You just have a rest!"

Janice pursed her lips, looking particularly gentle. It was the first time I'd seen her like this.

Just then, a group of doctors briskly walked in, and we quickly moved aside to give them space.

My phone rang out of the blue, and I quickly stepped out of the room. Glancing at the caller ID, I saw

that it was Jaylan calling.
