---- Chapter 2 After treating Jenna's wound, Matthew passed her the white roses he bought. With a grin, he said, "Here. I bought you flowers to make amends. There's a fireworks show by the river tonight. Don't you love watching fireworks? How about we go together?" Jenna was uninterested and was about to say no when he swore sincerely, "Don't worry, Jenna. I'll arrange a wheelchair so that you won't be exhausted. I'll also protect you closely to make sure that the crowd won't bump into you." Hearing his words, Jenna could only agree. Matthew immediately smiled and kissed her forehead. "Let's go, then." The river was crowded with people because of the fireworks show. Matthew found a relatively safe place and gently lifted Jenna into a wheelchair. He half crouched down in front of her, took the blanket from the bodyguard, and gently covered her legs with it. "The fireworks ---- show will start in ten minutes. Let's wait here for a while." Jenna hummed in response and looked into the distance. The breeze blew as the river rippled. The place looked like a scene out of a painting, but she was not in the mood to enjoy the view. While waiting, Matthew watched her and took care of her at every moment as usual. Since she was injured, he was even more alert as he protected her closely. He was afraid someone might bump into her. His behavior made Jenna somewhat dazed. Matthew thought she was worried and comforted her with a smile, saying, "Don't worry. I'm always here to protect you." "Will you always be here...' Jenna thought as she smiled, but she said nothing. When there were only three minutes left before the fireworks show, Matthew's phone kept ringing with ---- notifications. He took it out, and a conflicted look appeared in his eyes after his gaze landed on the screen. Jenna instantly figured out that the lady from the hospital was reaching out to him. "Did something happen?" Jenna stared at Matthew's face quietly, wanting to know what his ultimate choice would be. The seconds passed... Matthew looked down at his phone and finally made a decision. "Jenna, there's a major problem with an order contract. I need to go back immediately and settle it. I'll get the bodyguard to stay here and guard you. I'll hurry back to accompany you as soon as I'm done, okay?" He chose that lady in the end. Jenna's hands clenched tightly, and her sharp nails pierced her skin instantly. It stung slightly, like being pricked by a needle. Her heart was experiencing the same pain. "Do you have to deal with it now?"
