Chapter 1333
Dr. Lester just took Jeremyâs IV out. âYou were all about going before, now how come youâve had a change of heart?â
Jeremy looked up, giving him a cold glance, âWhen did I kick up a fuss?â
Dr. Lester was speechless.
He was clearly making a fuss and now he was denying it.
Jeremy got up from the bed, practically ran to the door. âPatricia, Patricia.â
Patricia appeared immediately, âMarc, thereâs no need to shout. I can hear you. Are you asking me to prepare Nellyâs food again? Whatever Nelly wants to eat, Iâll get on it right away.â
Jeremy said, âNellyâs coming over for a visit tomorrow. Get someone to tidy up the house. Make sure you let Goldie know she needs to play her part well. If she nails it, thereâs plenty of dough in it for her. But if she screws up, she wonât be able to handle the fallout.â
Patricia said, âDonât worry, Goldieâs a stellar actress, Iâm more concerned about your health.â
Jeremy said, âIâm fine now.â
Hearing this, Dr. Lester felt a headache coming on, âYouâre fine? Can you say that one more time?â
If he hadnât seen it with his own eyes, he wouldâve thought,Jeremy was really okay.
Last night, Jeremy had Ben call Cornelia and because of something she said, Jeremy couldnât sleep all night. And then this morning, he came down with a high fever. Because Jeremy was out cold this morning, he didnât go to Forgotten Kingdom today.
When he woke up, the first thing he asked was whether Cornelia had gone to Forgotten Kingdom to see the snow. Learning from Patricia that it hadnât snowed much last night, and Cornelia hadnât gone to see it, he let out a sigh of relief.
But this afternoon, the snow came down heavy and Cornelia would definitely go see it tomorrow, so Jeremy started insisting on going to see her. Now that he heard Cornelia was coming over for a visit tomorrow, he naturally cancelled his plan to go to Forgotten Kingdom.
At this point, he was acting like a total fool.
Looking at him, Dr. Lester felt annoyed.
Jeremy ignored Dr. Lester, his mind filled with thoughts of Cornelia coming over, saying, âYou guys donât worry about me, go tidy up the house. Weâre gonna treat Nelly right tomorrow, try to keep her here as long as possible.â
Patricia said, âNellyâs very sharp. She might see through us when she visits.â
Jeremy said, âThatâs why we need to tidy up the house.â
Patricia said, âAlright, Iâll get on it.â
Once Patricia left, Dr. Lester said again, âMarc.â
Jeremy asked, âWhat else?â
Dr. Lester thought for a moment, then said, âBefore, you didnât know if you could beat this sickness and survive, so I get why you divorced Cornelia. Now youâve made it, why not tell her everything. Sheâs kind-hearted. Sheâll forgive you once she knows your intentions.â
At this, Jeremyâs face darkened slightly. He looked up, saw his reflection in the mirror, âIn this state, Cornelia would be scared, wouldnât she?â Dr. Lester opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didnât. He wasnât Cornelia, and he didnât know her well, so he wasnât sure sheâd react seeing Jeremy like this.
Jeremy said, âYou should get some rest.â
Dr. Lester answered, âYes, you should rest too. If you have another sleepless night, you might not have the energy to see Cornelia tomorrow.â Jeremy said, âAlright.â
The next day.
Cornelia got up very early.
