Chapter 1391

Dr. Lester worked his butt off every day. In the past few months, he’d been the hardest worker, second only to Jeremy. Now, he was just following Jeremy’s usual instructions, and out of the blue, he got scolded. Suddenly, all his pent-up feelings burst out, “I’m just following orders. Why are you blowing up at me? If you’re so capable, why don’t you let that guy over there get a proper rest?”

He turned his head towards Jeremy, the implication was clear

Zack turned to look as well, feeling the pressure instantly. Did he not want to chew Jeremy out? Of course, he did, but he didn’t have the guts to

Zack said, “Anyway, you guys need to let Nelly know whatever’s going on from now on, no more secrets.”

Jeremy looked awful, clutching his chest, coughing for a while before he finally stopped, “Mr. Ruck, don’t worry, what you’re worried about won’t happen. again.”

His voice was weak, which made Zack worry. Then you should rest. I’ll leave you alone.”

Jeremy, “Okay”

Since he didn’t ask him to stay Zack didnt feel right hanging around. Before he left, he added, “Actually, Nelly is much stronger than you think, She can protect you too, if you let her”

Jeremy knew how strong Cornelia was, 1 know Given my current condition, it’s not a good time for me to see her and the baby. Thank you for talking to her and keeping her company”

Zack wanted to say something else, but he thought Jeremy’s worries were reasonable, Then you get well soon, so the whole family can return to Riverton soon”

Jeremy, “Okay”

In the afternoon, Cornelia entertained Hannah and Zack. They came one after the other, leaving Cornelia with no time to rest. After Zack and Abigail returned to the hotel, Cornelia ate little and went to bed early

She woke up in the middle of the night. The first thing she did upon opening her eyes was instinctively reach for the baby beside her, only to find nothing there. The baby was gone

Cornelia was startled, “Hope.

Before she finished shouting, she saw through the corner of her eye Jeremy in the living room, walking back and forth with Hope. He was softly swaying as he walked, occasionally bending down as if whispering to the baby

Just watching him, Cornelia felt tears welling up in her eyes.

Hope only breastfed, refusing formula or anyone else holding him besides his parents. He usually slept beside Cornelia, very well-behaved, but would cry loudly when hungry. Cornelia didn’t understand how such a small body could make such a loud noise.

To not disturb Cornelia’s rest, Jeremy would watch Hope when she slept and take him away as soon as he fussed. Even though he was still sick, he took care of her every need. What reason did she have to be mad at such a man?

Perhaps Cornelia’s gaze was too intense, Jeremy suddenly turned his head to look at her. When he caught her gaze, he gave her a smile, then walked towards her with Hope in his arms, “Did I disturb you?”

Cornelia shook her head, “No.”

Jeremy put Hope in front of her, “Hope is hungry. You feed him first.”

“Okay” Cornelia took Hope, cradling him carefully, “I’ll take care of Hope for the rest of the night. You should rest.”

Jeremy raised his hand, gently pushing her hair behind her ear, “I slept all afternoon. I’m not tired yet.”
