Chapter 615

“Esther!”

“Esther!”

When Esther suddenly fainted from stress, Kevin and Jasper panicked. Kevin called the doctor only after he confirmed she wasn’t in a life-threatening condition.

After running tests on Esther, the doctor gently reminded them, “Dr. Slade, Mr. Searle, Ms. Quill’s mental and physical health can’t handle more stress. Avoid emotional ups and downs.”

Kevin replied, “We’ll be careful.”

Once the doctor left, Kevin asked anxiously, “Jasper, what should we do now?”

“Let’s stick to our plan. You watch over Bradley, and I’ll take care of Esther. For now, let’s focus on their health.”

Kevin massaged his temples, deeply troubled.

If Esther reacted this way to Chadwick’s news, Bradley would likely explode if he saw it.

“Jasper, I’m leaving Esther to you. Call me immediately if anything happens.”

“Okay.”

To shield Esther from more stress, Jasper avoided checking the news until she woke up.

When Esther regained consciousness, she looked at Jasper with teary eyes but couldn’t find words.

“Esther, I know what you want to say, but these things are minor right now. Your health is the priority.”

The nurse said Esther could eat, so Jasper set out a thermos of aromatic chicken soup.

“Jasper, Chadwick…”

Esther feared Bradley’s reaction to the news.

“Don’t think about Chadwick right now. Focus on your goal. Life is full of uncertainties. Trust me, the Pendletons will fade from Capitus one day.”

Jasper’s words eased Esther’s anxiety.

Seeing Jasper offer her the soup, Esther gently said, “Jasper, I can manage.”

She took a sip and recalled that Mandy had also undergone a liver transplant. “Is there more soup? I’d like to send some to Mandy.”

Regardless of Mandy’s motives, Esther considered her a savior.

Jasper chuckled, “Esther, don’t you trust me? I know Mandy donated her liver to Bradley. I prepared for her, too.”

Esther blushed, realizing she had misjudged Jasper.

As an eligible bachelor, Jasper garnered attention from single nurses. The head nurse took charge of Esther’s care to avoid issues.

Considering the circumstances, Jasper was cautious about handling things personally. He entrusted Jordyn with Esther’s care, and Jordyn became quite smitten.

“Mr. Searle…”

While Jordyn changed Esther’s dressing, Jasper kept his distance. Only after the dressing was finished did Jordyn leave the ward.
