Chapter 286

In the quiet hospital corridors, Corinne could be seen hurriedly striding past the nurses‘ station as she made her way to her ward with Jeremy following closely behind her.

Witnessing this, the nurses began to whisper excitedly between themselves.

“That’s him! That’s him! That man is Miss Anya’s boyfriend!”

“Oh my god! He’s so handsome!”

“But why is he chasing after another girl right now instead of being with Miss Anya in Room 302?”

“Please don’t tell me the three of them are involved in a love triangle!”

A frown immediately appeared on Corinne’s face when she overheard what the nurses said. Annoyed, she sped up her pace.

She turned to close her door once she was back in her ward, but Jeremy quickly blocked the door from closing with his hand. “What is the matter with you?” asked Jeremy through the gap.

“You shouldn’t come in, Mister,” said Corinne as she struggled to close the door.

“Give me a good reason why I shouldn’t go in,” demanded Jeremy with a darkened face.

Corinne nodded and said, “Fine. Move your hand, and I’ll tell you.”

Jeremy, being the trusting fool he was, immediately moved his hand only to have the door closed with a bang in his face. Then, he heard the sound of the door being locked from the inside.

He was rendered speechless for a while.

“Don’t be like this. Open the door and let me in!” said Jeremy as he knocked on the door, his patience running thin.

No sound came from inside the ward. Corinne had made up her mind to ignore him completely.

Jeremy furrowed his brow and said, “Corinne Carew, open the door this instant, you hear?”

No sound, still.

Jeremy was at a loss for what to do. He sighed and made up his mind to swallow his pride.

“Hey now, won’t you be a sweetheart and open this door for me? Could you at least tell me what’s wrong? I know it’s my fault that I came back late, and I should be punished for that. But Corinne… Corinne dear…sweetheart…” Jeremy cooed.

Suddenly, Tommy spoke up from behind Jeremy, causing the latter to whip around with a scrunched -up thunderous face.

Tommy had no idea what was happening. All he knew was something was off, so he tried to explain himself, “Umm… Sir, I was caught up in a traffic jam and the food you asked me to buy went cold, so I went back to the same place to get a new one. This here is still hot. Please let Ma’am eat it while it’s still hot.”

Jeremy wanted to pass the food to Corinne while it was hot, but how could he when Corinne would not even let him step one foot into the room?

“Sir, I’m guessing Ma’am won’t let you in?” asked Tommy, finally making heads or tails out of the situation.

Jeremy did not know how to reply to him. He just stared frostily at Tommy until the latter instinctively took a few steps back.

Tommy was smart enough to put the food on one of the corridor chairs before bidding farewell. “Sir, I’ll put the food here. Remember to eat it while it’s still hot. I’ll take my leave now if there’s no need for my service anymore.”

“Okay.”

Tommy quickly left the hospital.

Jeremy rubbed his face out of tiredness and sat on the corridor chair. He took out his phone and sent a message to Corinne.

[Anya saved my life ten years ago. She hurt herself in the process and became sickly and weak after that. Because of that, I’ll forever be indebted to her and would do anything within my power to make sure she’s okay.]

Corinne, still in her ward, read the message from Jeremy. After a pause, she replied, [If that’s the case, you should just go and be with her instead of me. You should just leave me alone.]

[Why don’t you let me in first?] Jeremy texted back.

[I’m going to sleep now. Go be with your savior.]

[Open the door. Let me explain it to you face to face.]

There was no more reply from Corinne.

Jeremy waited for another minute but there was still no reply. He reined in the urge to throw his phone onto the floor and shot off another message to her. [Tommy brought some barbecued meat.]

Three seconds later, the ward door opened with a click.

Jeremy – with a darkened face–picked up the food from the corridor chair while thinking, ‘I can’t believe she’ll only let me in because of some barbecued meat.‘

Corinne opened up the takeaway container and discovered the content to be chicken soup. She immediately scowled at Jeremy. “Where’s my barbecued meat?”

Jeremy was situated near the window. He was enjoying the breeze and did not seem to feel any remorse for the lie he told. “You had a severe allergic reaction, so it’s best for you to eat something lighter. It’s the doctor’s order, after all,” he said calmly.

“You liar!” cried Corinne, unhappy at being lied to. While that was true, she was also hungry. Hence, she started to drink the chicken soup.

Jeremy walked over and sat next to her. He stared silently at her while she ate. Only when she put down her spoon did he begin to speak. “Are you done eating? If you are, I have something to tell you…”

“Mister, you don’t have to tell me anything. I don’t want to know about it,” Corinne interjected.

Jeremy’s face fell, and his eyes darkened. “Why didn’t you want to let me in just now?“
