Falling For My Mysterious Wife

Chapter 194

Elaina was stunned and did not react for a moment.

“You said that as long as I can come out alive, you will give me the chance to pursue you. Does that

count?” the man asked.

In an instant, Elaina’s face turned red and she did not dare to look into Jalen’s eyes.

Seeing that she did not speak, Jalen could not help but feel a little disappointed. “I thought you

were serious. I didn’t expect you to be teasing me.”

As if feeling his disappointment, Elaina felt a little apologetic. “Of course, I am.”

“Really?”

“Of course, I’m just giving you a chance, not agreeing to be with you. What’s there to be happy

about?” as she said this, she did not know if she was talking to Jalen or herself.

Jalen did not care. In his opinion, as long as Elaina was willing to give him a chance, at least it

meant that she did not hate him as much as before. Success or not wasn’t his present concern.

This was a huge improvement for him.

“Are you the one guarding me these days?” He had heard the conversation between Graham and

Elaina just now, so he was extremely happy.

Of course, Elaina would not admit it. She immediately shook her head. “How could I guard you? I

still have so many patients.”

Jalen echoed. He did not care about her denial. In any case, he was clear about the truth.

Elaina did not want to continue this topic with him, so she changed the topic. “The rescue here is

over. You can prepare to return to New York.”

Jalen asked, “What about you?”

“I still need to stay for a few more days. After all, there are still many villagers who have not

recovered yet. The medical conditions here are limited. If I leave, they won’t have a doctor,” Elaina Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

said.

But this was not the saddest thing for her. What made her sad was how the survivors would live in the future.

The houses were all destroyed. The villagers either rebuilt them or left for somewhere else. But no

matter which choice it was, it was extremely difficult for them.

Jalen saw the misery in her eyes. “Are you worried about them? Are you afraid that they won’t be

able to live in the future?”

“Well, after all, the entire village has been destroyed and the houses have collapsed. They don’t

even have a place to live now,” Elaina sighed. Whenever this happened, she would lament that she was not capable enough and could not be helpful.

Seeing her like this, Jalen could not help but laugh at her. “I didn’t expect Dr. Gainsford to be such a

sentimental person.”

“What about you?” Elaina asked him, “What kind of person are you?”

Jalen did not answer, and Elaina did not intend for him to answer. “Mr. Halton, a famous guy in New

York, would risk his life to save a few children. Who would believe this?”

If she had not seen it with her own eyes, Elaina would not have believed it.

“I am not so kind. I am just passing by.” Jalen curled his lips, unwilling to admit it.

Elaina didn’t believe his words. She didn’t respond to him and turned to leave the tent.

But at this time, Jalen said, “The Halton Group will have charity projects every year. The project this year has not yet been decided. It can be used to rebuild Greene Village.”

Elaina was stunned and did not know what to say.

“You can discuss it with them. They can choose to rebuild the place, or they can choose to

relocate. The cost will be covered by the Halton Group,” he said.

Elaina felt more and more complicated. The more she understood Jalen, the more she felt that

this man was not like the one that the rumors had at all.

‘Actually, you don’t have to do this…” Elaina opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

Jalen stared at her and said, “As long as you are happy, I am willing to do anything.”
