Doris had been in a constant tired and annoyed mood these days. Jay kept pestering her every now and then as if he was practically enjoying tormenting her deliberately.
He would order her sometime saying, "Doris, isn't it my medicine time?"
Or sometime he'd say on purpose, "Doris, help me with my exercise."
And then he'd annoy her even more by ordering her, "Doris, prepare my bath!"
He was doing nothing but frustrating her with his pestering attitude over and over again and now she'd come down to secretly dreaming of hurting him inventing some pure evil ideas. A few of the ideas that had popped up in her head were really innovative and she was enjoying selecting which one would be the best she could use on him. A thousand different scenarios were crowding inside her head making her hands itch to get to work at the earliest possible opportunity.
Whenever she'd look at Jay as he continued to annoy her with orders, she'd daydream deciding on which the best way to teach him a lesson was. Jay would give her one of his penetrating gazes when he would notice she had gone silent or acting differently. As if he was trying to decipher the look in her eyes. Although she knew she couldn't leave his side until he had fully recovered, that didn't stop her from cursing him inwardly.
Her mind frequently reminded her how tiresome it was to stay with this evil man. She'd rather die than to stay here with him for another minute.
All she wanted was to get away from him and have her freedom again. It was like she was forcefully stuck with him.
Of course she had asked Jay if she could leave. If she could, she'd be the person with peace of mind as they didn't have to see each other ever again.
But that evil man! He shamelessly denied her. Clearly, he had no intention of letting her go away from him until he fully recovered. His attitude was aggravating
t also so soon. But Doris hid her plan from him cautiously as she helped him to the dining room.
The dinner was delicious. Doris had been with Jay for so long now that she knew all his favorite foods.
Although he liked sophisticated dining, he wasn't picky. He never refused her home cooking and Doris knew she cooked well so Jay must like them, which was why he never complained about the food.
After dinner was done, Jay sat on the sofa and flicked through the channels on the TV. Originally, he was nothing but bored.
Truthfully, he was bored more often these days than usual, because he had nothing to do than to watch TV and take a rest.
He picked up his phone on his other hand and read the comments he received from many beautiful women on social platforms. He yearned to be out and be with them as he had before. He was used to parties and nightclubs, but now he was just stuck at home. The irony of his fate!
After Doris had also eaten, she cleaned up the kitchen before finally walking into the living room where Jay was.
"Don't you consider me man enough?" Jay asked grumpily when he saw her coming.
Doris was surprised at his question. "What do you mean? Of course you are. I have put something in your wardrobe. I suggest you take a look at it then have a try. It's for you to know whether you've recovered or not," Doris explained carefully, watching for Jay's reaction. She didn't want to hurt his feelings in any way.
Jay caught her eyes. "Doris, why are you so hesitant about it?" He never looked away from her but put down the remote control beside him. He wasn't letting go of the previous topic of discussion just yet. He held her gaze deliberately and waited for her answer.
"Er... Mr. Fang, l really want you to look into the wardrobe first of all. You'll understand everything when you see it," Doris explained with pleading eyes.
