How could she possibly match up to Koa Jackson?
Thinking about marriage, she indeed felt a bit worried and scared.
Leaving aside her identity as Aiden Jiang and Aurora Cooper’s daughter, could she gain the approval of Koa Jackson’s family?
She didn’t know.
After the car accident, this was the first ti she thought about Koa Jackson’s family. The impression was very vague, as if she’d t them before, yet she couldn’t rember a single person.
Her head throbbed painfully.
Mia Ginger felt stifled and didn’t dare to take a long bath. She quickly wrapped herself in a towel and stepped out.
Her phone kept ringing in her pocket.
Mia reached out to answer it, took it out, and seeing it was Koa Jackson, she directly answered, "Hello."
"Did you get ho?" Koa Jackson’s voice had a barely noticeable hint of reproach, "Why didn’t you even know to call?"
"I’m ho." Mia hurriedly said, "I took a bath and forgot."
"Don’t take too long in the shower," Koa Jackson reminded.
"I know."
"Okay." Koa Jackson’s voice beca gentler, and he said softly, "Don’t forget tomorrow at three in the afternoon."
"I know," Mia pouted, "How could I forget?"
"I’ll call to remind you in advance."
"Okay." Mia smiled a little.
"So, goodnight?" Koa Jackson’s tone was slightly raised.
"No." Mia suddenly ca to her senses, requesting, "Talk with for a while, I want to talk to you."
Koa Jackson chuckled, "What do you want to talk about?"
"Honestly, I don’t know," Mia said truthfully, "I just feel a bit stifled, with wild thoughts, and a little scared and anxious. My head hurts, and my heart feels heavy and painful. Dr. Jackson, am I sick? After-effects of the car accident?"
"..." Koa Jackson paused, thoughtfully saying, "Premarital anxiety, perhaps?"
"Huh?"
"Huh, what?" Koa Jackson snorted a bit impatiently, "I said I’d walk you ho, why were you so stubborn? I put on a jacket and you were gone."
Mia let out a dry laugh, "Don’t you have it?"
"What?"
"Premarital anxiety." Mia said softly, "I just feel a bit scared. I’m only twenty, isn’t that too young?"
"I don’t." Koa Jackson said softly, "I just always feel the watch seems to be wrong."
"..." Mia was montarily stunned.
"It’s moving too slowly," Koa Jackson said with a self-deprecating tone, "I’m getting anxious watching it."
Mia burst into laughter, teasing, "Aren’t you a doctor? Treat it properly."
"I can’t," Koa Jackson’s voice was soft and low, "I can only treat you."
His sweet words ca so suddenly that Mia’s face turned scorching hot, and she said with a hint of reproach, "I feel like you’re so... shaless right now."
Koa Jackson let out a snort of laughter, saying nothing.
Mia, that girl with heavy thoughts, seed more cheerful after the car accident, but in truth, her nature was hard to change.
No one understands her better than he does, knowing that she’d definitely be lost in her thoughts again at night. He had intended to keep her company to distract her, shaless or not. It was rare for him to feel so excited, almost to the point of insomnia.
He said nothing, and after a small pause, Mia softly said, "Brother Jackson, do you agree with studying abroad?"
Koa Jackson didn’t hesitate much, speaking lightly, "I respect your decision."
"I want to go." Mia said.
She wanted to seize this opportunity, strive to better herself and beco a woman who could match Koa Jackson.
This thought beca suddenly clear to her as she stepped out of the bathroom just now.
"Go if you want," Koa Jackson smiled, "It’s not a bad thing. Two years will pass in a blink of an eye."
"In two years, you’ll be thirty."
"Mm."
Listening to his soft voice, broken images suddenly flashed through Mia’s mind.
She rembered the wish she made during her birthday at the Ginger Family, "Brother Jackson will wait for for three years."
She felt dazed all of a sudden.
Koa Jackson listened to her breathing through the line, speaking slowly, "Don’t stress over it. Once you’ve decided, just go for it. Applying for an exchange student program isn’t so easy either. Don’t forget, you’ve already taken two months off school, and you’ve fallen behind in your studies."
Mia: "..."
After a while, she said, "Is this your way of discouraging ?"
Koa Jackson laughed, "It’s a challenge."
"Hehe," Mia chuckled softly, "Should I accept it?"
Koa Jackson’s joyful laughter ca through the phone, and just hearing it made Mia feel imnsely happy.
In a daze, she felt that Koa Jackson seed to be smiling more and more these days. Was it because of her that he had changed?
Thinking this, her mood brightened, and she took a long, contented breath, saying fondly, "I should get ready for bed."
"Mm." Koa Jackson responded, yet didn’t hang up. For so reason, he suddenly felt particularly reluctant, thinking that even just listening to this girl’s breathing was quite nice.
Mia sensitively caught on to his emotions, bit her lip tightly to restrain her smile, and said in a calm voice, "Dr. Jackson, see you tomorrow."
