Chapter 506 Ace Is Crying
Chapter 506 Ace Is Crying
Maybe it was because the sound of opening the door was a little loud that Ace woke up.
As soon as Doris heard Ace cry, she picked him up to feed him.
It was the scene that welcomed Jay when he entered the room. He turned around and was about to leave but Doris stopped him. "You said you would company me and our child tonight. You are not allowed to leave."
"I... I'm not leaving. I don't want to leave." Then Jay turned around and came back. Doris moved aside a little bit. "You sleep here."
Scratching his head, Jay said, "I'm just afraid that I will press Ace."
"Ace has his own small bed. This bed is ours." After Doris was done feeding Ace, the little boy licked his little mouth and fell asleep again with satisfaction.
Doris stood up and put Ace into the crib.
Her eyes fell on Jay as she fixed Ace in the crib.
The bed was still the same bed, and the person was still the same person. It was just that Ace was in the room. She didn't know why Jay became so distant.
As a father, Jay shouldn't be jealous of Ace. As a matter of fact, he should be livelier now seeing his child who looked exactly like him.
"Okay." With an awkward smile, Jay lay down on the bed. Doris watched his every move, and his stiffness didn't escape her eyes.
That night, Doris specially took a shower. Her whole body was smeared with good rose essential oil, and the fragrance was overflowing. It was bewitching.
Glancing at Jay's handsome face, she slowly approached him.
If it was in the past, Jay would say that she smelt good. The night wouldn't end without him doing something, hugging her at least.
But today, Jay didn't do anything. Not even a single compliment came out of his mouth when he saw Doris. Instead, he turned around and said, "Go to bed. It's so late."
Huh? Needless to say, Doris was petrified.
Was Jay still a normal man?
They hadn't been together for only two months. Did his sexual function degenerate?
Or did Jay have any other idea, or a woman?
Without a word, Doris reached out her hand to touch Jay's lower abdomen.
Her action made Jay's legs tremble. "What are you doing, Doris?"
Caressing his manhood, she looked at Jay dejectedly. "Do you have no feelings for me anymore?"
"I... I said I was just exhausted. Stop it. Just go to sleep." For some reason only Jay knew, he got annoyed. With his back on Doris, he fell asleep; completely ignoring Doris and her feelings.
It was a tough night for Doris.
She couldn't do anything with the man she loved who slept beside her. He was just right next to her but he felt so far.
Although Doris wanted to believe that maybe Jay was just really tired, she had noticed that he had been avoidant for several days already.
It was totally different from the vigorous Jay before.
Thinking of this, Doris couldn't help but feel depressed.
After that night, she didn't force Jay to sleep in her room anymore, nor did she ask Jay what had happened.
Because she just felt that Jay had no interest in her. She just didn't know why. Did she do something wrong? Or...
Was it because she gave birth to a baby?
The sun had set, but Jay hadn't come home yet.
Doris stared at Jay's number on her phone, but she didn't have the courage to dial it.
So she dialed Nancy's phone number instead.
As usual, Nancy had a busy day. Not long after she drifted to sleep, she heard her phone rang.
Seeing Doris' name on the screen, she stood up even though she felt sleepy.
When Charles felt her move, he put his arm around her and asked, "What are you doing?"
"It's from Doris. I'll answer it." Then she pulled away from Charles and went to the bathroom to answer the call.
Maybe something important came up or maybe something was wrong with Ace that Doris called her this late.
But Nancy was shocked to hear Doris burst into tears as soon as she answered the phone. "Nancy, what should I do?"
"What's wrong? What happened?"
"It seems like Jay is with another woman. It's so late, but he hasn't come back yet."
"Don't think too much. Maybe something just happened in the company, and he will be back soon," Nancy comforted her.
"No, Jay has been acting so strange. It's as if he doesn't like me anymore. Anyway, we haven't been intimate recently. We're not doing what normal couples do... Do you understand?" Because of crying, Doris was stammering as she spoke. Her hand holding the phone was shaking too. It could be seen that Doris was scared of the idea that Jay could be in another woman's arms.
After thinking for a while, Nancy said, "Well, you're taking care of the baby now, so you must be very tired every day. Is it because Jay doesn't want to strain you too much?"
"Is Charles at home?" asked Doris. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Instinctively, Nancy poked out her head to see Charles who was sleeping soundly. "He is sleeping."
"Charles is at home, but Jay hadn't come back yet. He must dislike me for giving birth to a child and doesn't want to be with me anymore. What should I do, Nancy?"
For a moment, Nancy fell silent. "Does he often act like this?"
"It's been two months." Grievance could be heard in Doris' voice.
"This is indeed a little unusual. Why don't you wait a little longer or let me accompany you to look for him?" At this time, Nancy didn't know how to comfort Doris. But in her opinion, Jay had been very
concerned about Doris recently. When Doris was hospitalized, Jay took good care of her and loved her child very much. Why would Jay cheat on Doris all of a sudden?
'It's impossible, isn't it?'
After taking a deep breath, Doris stated, "I want to see him."
"Don't worry. I'll ask Charles first, and if he doesn't know where Jay is, I'll pick you up to find him, okay?" No matter what time it was, it was more important for Nancy to make sure Doris was okay. She would do everything to help her friend.
"Don't call Jay. I don't want to disturb him. I just want to know where Jay is." People tended to be more cautious when they were about to lose someone.
It was obvious that Doris was afraid that Jay would really leave her.
"Okay." After hanging up the phone, Nancy went back to her bedroom and whispered on Charles' ear. "Charles, do you know where Jay is?"
"I don't know," Charles answered in a daze.
"It's late at night. Where is that bastard, Jay?" Shaking her head, Nancy changed her clothes and walked out of the bedroom.
She went downstairs and drove straight to Jay's villa.
Her heart sank the moment she saw Doris.
It looked like Doris had been crying for so long that her eyes swelled. Nancy felt sorry for her, so she hugged her. "Why are you even crying?"
But Doris cried even more as soon as she heard Nancy's question. "I'm afraid that Jay will abandon me."
Pulling away from the hug, Nancy comforted her softly, "Don't be silly. How could Jay abandon you?"
"He just doesn't want me anymore. Even if I take the initiative, he doesn't want to be with me." It was natural for Doris to be so stubborn, even at times like this.
"Okay, let's find him and ask him what happened, okay?"
"He just doesn't love me anymore. He has fallen in love with another woman. I know... It doesn't matter to me, but Ace is so little. What's going to happen to him if Jay would divorce me?" The more Doris spoke, the sadder she became.
It was as if her eyes didn't know how to stop shedding tears. "Charles didn't know where Jay is. I'll go with you to find Jay, okay?"
"Where do you think Jay will go?" Confusion was evident in Doris' eyes.
With furrowed brows, Nancy asked, "You didn't locate his phone?"
Sniffing, Doris shook her head. "No."
