The Rich And Bold

Blood Is Thicker

CHAPTER TWENTY- NINE

AZALEA

I responded to the knock at my door, and it opened to reveal Jenna in sweatpants and a baggy T-shirt. It worried me that a fashion designer's daughter liked to dress like a homeless man.

"I just came to check up on you." She said as she walked to my bed and sat beside me.

The constant check-ins were irritating me. "I just kicked my nurse out; I don't mind kicking you out too."

"We just want to make sure that you are safe, and that the surgery went-"

"Jenna I am fine, trust me. I mean I wish I could go out with the guys but aside from that I feel great."

She stared at me for a while and nodded. "If you say so".

My head was wrapped in bandages and ached a bit, I could not stand for more than a minute, I found it difficult to eat and I felt weak, but the doctor said it was perfectly normal. I mean, it had only been about a week or less since the surgery. I was doing great, they needed to stop treating me like I was going to die.

There was a long pause before she said, "We passed by Australia on our way back here. We went to see the twins. We are thinking about having the wedding there so that they can be a part of it."

That got me in a better mood. "Oh, that is wonderful. It's a great idea."

"They are great. Azalea, they grow more beautiful every day." She gushed. "They look so much like their mother though. That's the only problem." She scrunched her nose.

I chuckled and sighed. "We visit them almost every weekend and see them during video calls. We want to spend the Christmas there, I was really looking forward to it, but you might have to go without me given the circumstance."

"Yeah. Your mom will be here though, but I'll have to go with the boys. The managers are messing things up there and major work has to be done. We need all hands on deck. Plus, everything is under control here, so with the help of the managers your mom should be fine for the Christmas. We'll try to get back before the new year. Oh yeah, and she only trusts Jake...Joel... to be around whilst she works from home, so you should be seeing him often."

At that moment, I could care less about the company in Australia. I felt excitement begin to bubble in my belly at the mention of the handsome curly-haired man. "Jason?"

"Yes, that's the name. Your parents like him a lot, especially Brigida. I heard she is mentoring him herself. That's huge."

I nodded. "He's very intelligent, very hard working..."

"I heard. And I also heard you guys don't get along."

"Minor disagreements here and there..."

"Don't give him such a hard time. I know you. There are no minor disagreements when it comes to you."

I rolled my eyes and smiled. "It is not my fault that he can't understand me."

Jenna mimicked my actions and stood up. "Make sure you rest. No social media."

"But the guys are streaking me about their fun night out. I think Scarlett is going to lose her virginity tonight." I laughed. "They are practically dry humping at the party."

"The more you rest the earlier you can get back on your feet and do some dry humping of your own." She stood up and walked out of the room.

"Yes, mother" I responded which earned a laugh out of her.
