Chapter 350 Why Didn’t He Just Say So Directly?

Caroline pinched her eyebrows and said, “Once you have the surgical plan ready, give me your contact

details. Once I’ve confirmed it, you can carry out the surgery.”

Seeing that Caroline had relented, the doctor was overjoyed. “That’s great”

Jamie stood by the bed and looked at Lily. She pointed and said, “Carol, is this your mother?”

“No, this is Lily. She took good care of me for five years,” Caroline said as she sat down by the bed.

She looked at Lily with a bitter gaze. “Lily is like family to me. Both my biological mother and my

adoptive mother have passed away.”

Five years had passed, and she hadn’t visited her adoptive mother’s grave. She was afraid that

Katie would blame her for being useless, as she still couldn’t bring her murderer to justice.

Jamie’s heart ached upon seeing the tears rolling down Caroline’s cheeks. She picked up a tissue

to gently wipe them away.

Caroline locked up in shock.

Jamie placed her hands on Caroline’s cold face, smiled faintly, and said, “Carol, don’t cry. Although

they’re no longer around, you still have me. I can be like a mother to you and treat you like my

daughter‘

Jamie’s smile was gentle and sincere.

Caroline’s eyes reddened, and she threw herself into Jamie’s arms

Jamie gently stroked Caroline’s long hair and comforted her ‘Carol, don’t cry…”

Caroline knew that Jamie only had good intentions at this moment.

At 11:00 am., Caroline and Jamie bought some lunch before heading to the VIP ward.

Evan was sitting on the hospital bed, reading some work documents. When he saw Caroline and

Jamie walk in together, he was stunned.

“Mom…” Evan said in shock, “Why are you here?”

Jamie smiled faintly at Evan and sat down on the sofa without a word.

A hint of loneliness flashed across Evan’s eyes. His mother was behaving normally.

Only during her normal moments would she show him this unfamiliar smile.

Seeing this, Caroline went forward with the bowl of grilled chicken salad in her hands. “You haven’t had

lunch yet, have you?”

Evan’s voice was hoarse. “No.”

Caroline’s heart ached. Jamie did not love Evan, but Evan treated Jamie as his only family.

“I bought you lunch, Caroline said again, breaking the oppressive atmosphere in the ward.

Evan glanced at her. “Have you eaten?”

Caroline shook her head, pulled a chair over, and sat down beside the bed. She picked up a fruit knife

and started peeling an apple. “I’ll eat after you’ve eaten.

Evan raised his arm and asked coldly, “Do you think I can carry anything with this hand?”

Caroline felt irritated. If he wanted her to feed him, why didn’t he just say so directly?

She

put down the apple rather heavily. Then, she picked up the bowl, scooped up a piece of the grilled

chicken, and brought it to Evan’s mouth.

She would put up with it! After all, he had saved her.

Evan took a bite, but it was too hot. He frowned unhappily at Caroline. “Are you trying to scald me?”

Caroline tightened her grip on the fork, retracted her hand, and blew on the steam before handing

it back to Evan. 1

Evan seemed satisfied this time and ate it.

Jamie sat on the sofa, her gaze fixed on the interactions between the two. The more she looked at

Evan’s facial features, the more she was reminded of Draco’s face. That face had caused her

countless nightmares.

Jamie’s hands gradually clenched into fists, and her chest rose and fell rapidly. The anger in her

eyes surged.

The next second, Jamie suddenly stood up and pounced on Evan.
