Chapter 1717 Someone Isn’t Following Doctor’s Orders
Gareth smiled. "I know my body. It's not so serious!"
Gareth smiled. "I know my body. It's not so serious!"
"Who's the doctor in this situation?" Jeremy glanced at him from the side, displeased. Jeremy also signaled Gareth
with another glance, indicating that since Elisa was here, he should take the opportunity and make the most of his
time.
Elisa overlooked the little actions between them. She picked up her bag and got up.
"It's late. I'm leaving. Thank you for this. I'll repay it in the future."
She was extremely calm and collected, but her face was icy and cold without any other expression!
Jeremy furrowed his brows. Just as he was about to call her heartless, Gareth reached out his hands as if wanting
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇther to stay.
He never imagined that his rushed actions would tug at his wound. It hurt, and he wrinkled his brows as he coughed
endlessly!
Elisa's footsteps stopped at once. She turned and looked at him worriedly.
"Are you alright?"
At the end of the day, he was injured because of her. She couldn't be completely ungrateful.
Jeremy glanced at her meaningfully, reminding her about what they had previously discussed.
Elisa had forgotten completely. She cleared her throat and sat down again. "I heard someone hasn't obeyed the
doctor's orders!"
Gareth looked at Jeremy meaningfully with a smile on the corners of his mouth. He said indifferently, "It's not as
serious as someone makes it out to be. In any case, there's no use staying in the hospital without the antidote. It's
better to go out and do what I like rather than staying restrained in the hospital."
"You have such a stubborn personality. I think you're both the same. You're a match made in heaven!" Jeremy
couldn't help but say.
This made the two slightly uncomfortable, and they looked away.
At this time, there was a knock at the door.
A nurse walked in and seemed to have something to say to Jeremy.
Jeremy told Gareth to rest well before following the nurse out. Their footsteps vanished.
The hospital room instantly quietened. The night outside was dark, and the incandescent light above them lit up the
room.
It was too awkward if the silence continued, so Elisa initiated a joke. "Are you punishing yourself by disobeying the
treatment?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"No." Gareth hadn't fully recovered. He coughed uncontrollably when he had only said one word and appeared
extremely weak.
It was only natural. Will had been poisoned and injured. How could he have been fine?!
Elisa's heart gradually softened. She cleared her throat. "Stay in the hospital longer and rest before you do anything
else!"
Gareth laughed. The smile in his eyes was like ripples in the deep ocean. When Elisa saw it, it was as though she
couldn't help but be swept up in it.
"Are you concerned about me?"
"It's out of courtesy." Elisa's tone was icy. She forced herself to stay calm. "Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't
care if someone died before me. However, you were injured because of me this time. It's uncomfortable for me to
owe you a life, so you must continue living on!"
"Alright, Ms. Benett!" Gareth gritted his teeth and spoke every word sincerely. "Don't worry. I won't become a
burden to you. I'll live well."
"I'm relieved hearing you say that. It's late, and I can't stay any longer. Please rest. I'm going to leave!" Elisa got up
and took her leave.
