CEO's Reborn Wife

Chapter 551: Chapter 559: Does Everyone Know Now?

”Lieutenant Johnson!” Jane Sampson was so frightened she couldn’t finish her sentence properly.

She looked down at the hand that James Black was holding and tried to shake it off in a hurry.

Tug!

And tug again!

She refused to believe it, this guy was holding on that tight!

Another tug!

Jane was about to jump with anxiety. She glared up at James and continued to pull away.

But...

She still couldn’t pull free, her hand was about to break off yet James was gripping it tightly.

Jane felt the despair and turned her head to look at the sky, telling herself it would all be okay.

After seeing the scene, Lieutenant Johnson burst into laughter, ”Sister-in-law, stop pulling. I’m not blind, I saw you and the Chief coming over holding hands all the way. Even if I hadn’t noticed at first, with all the commotion you’re causing, I would’ve had to notice.”

Sister-in-law?

Sister-in-law?!

SISTER-IN-LAW!!!

Jane lowered her head, directly looking towards Lieutenant Johnson, ”You... you know already?”

”I’ve known from the start,” Lieutenant Johnson said cheerfully. ”I’ve been in charge of the arrangements from beginning to end, and I reviewed all the personnel information. In the section about marital status, doesn’t it say you’re married? And that your husband is our General, how could I not know?” Lieutenant Johnson explained.

”Does everyone else know?” Jane blinked her eyes.

”Nobody else, just me,” Lieutenant Johnson reassured her with a glance.

Jane breathed a sigh of relief and playfully winked at Lieutenant Johnson. She was just about to speak when James’s palm covered her eyes, his voice displeased, ”If you’re going to talk, just talk. Don’t make those weird faces.”

”Chief, Sister-in-law wasn’t making a weird face,” Lieutenant Johnson grinned, ”It was kind of cute.”

As soon as Lieutenant Johnson finished his remark about being cute, James’s gaze shot over like daggers, causing Lieutenant Johnson to pause and silently wonder if he had said something wrong just now.

”Do you have an eye condition?” Jane huffed, then continued to talk to Lieutenant Johnson, ”Keep it a secret, okay?”

”Understood, understood,” Lieutenant Johnson nodded, acknowledging Jane’s special status, especially as she was currently recording a show with the guard team. It wouldn’t be good if the program crew found out at this time, as they might start making assumptions.

James, who had remained silent up to now, tugged at Jane, who was motionless, urging, ”Let’s go.”

”Oh~” Jane responded and waved goodbye to Lieutenant Johnson before following James upstairs.

After entering the home, James let go of Jane’s hand. After she walked in, he said, ”I’m going to take a bath first.”

He headed straight to the bedroom after dropping the comment. Jane called after him with a sigh, but he didn’t react.

”You could wait until after the late-night snack to take a bath!” Jane muttered to herself, but James had already gone into the bathroom where he obviously couldn’t hear her.

Jane stood in the living room for a while, feeling bored, so she went into the kitchen, found the peanut soup, and swiftly heated up both the soup and the buns.

When James came out after his bath, Jane had just brought the heated late-night snack to the dinner table. Hearing his footsteps, she smiled at him with a lift of her eyebrows and said, ”It’s all ready!”

Hearing James hum in response as he took a seat, Jane then asked, ”I saw a piece of beef in your fridge, when did you buy it?”

”This morning,” James replied.

”But I don’t feel like eating beef noodles recently. I want the guard team’s peanut soup, their soy milk, and their buns. I think I could eat it for a week straight without getting tired,” Jane thought of the beef she had requested on her first day here, so the piece of beef might have been purchased by James for her.
