Chapter 78 Nolan Was Speechless
The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became so tense that even the air seemed to condense.
Facing the imminent outbreak of war, Nolan quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Mr. Hill, it's
good that Mrs. Hill is fine. Everyone is happy."
Jacob looked away from Avery as if he didn't want to waste more time on her. Then, he
expressionlessly turned around and said, "I hope you know what you get yourself into."
Avery tried to fight back her anger but failed. Looking at the arrogant man who always thought he was
right, she slammed the porridge at him and said, "F*ck you!"
It was he who had pursued and proposed to her. He had been so possessive that she could only up
everything. He had ruined her life but still had the nerve to blame her for pretending to be ill.
The liquid flowed down his high-end suit after the white porridge hit Jacob on the back. He coldly
looked at her with anger in his eyes. Seeing him quickly walk toward Avery, Nolan knew the fuse of the
bomb was lit. It would explode!
So, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him and anxiously said, "Mr. Hill, Mrs. Hill's hands must
be slippery. Mrs. Hill, please say something!"
Avery kept her head high and coldly said, "Yes, my hands were slippery."
Nolan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mr. Hill, did you hear it? Mrs. Hill..."
Avery boldly interrupted before he could finish speaking, "If my hands had not been slippery, I would
have hit you on the head and killed you, you jerk!"
Nolan was speechless, thinking she was adding fuel to the fire.
Jacob pushed him away, strode up to Avery, and said through gritted teeth, "How dare you!"
Avery was so angry that she suddenly picked up a bottle of medicine from the dressing basket on the
bedside table, threw back the blanket, and jumped out of bed. She then raised her hand and smashed
the bottle at Jacob's head like a fierce warrior, saying, "Scumbag, I will kill you!"
Jacob raised his hand, grabbed her limp hand, and pinned it behind her back, instantly subduing her.
Looking at her face flushing with anger and her teary eyes, he couldn't tell what emotion he was
having. But the pain was more intense than the hatred.
Then, he took a deep breath to calm the anger in his chest. After throwing her back on the bed, he said
through gritted teeth, "Remember what you did today! You'd better pray not to fall into my hands again."
She had crossed the line, so he held back his anger to prevent himself from strangling her. But his
words angered her, so she said, "I would rather jump off the building than ask you for help!"
Jacob gave her a stern look, slammed the door, and left before letting all his people leave the hospital.
John followed him and asked, "Mr. Hill, aren't you afraid Mrs. Hill will commit suicide again?"
Jacob took off his coat and seriously said, "She will never kill herself! There's no need to waste more
time on her."
John frowned. As a bystander, he could see the matter more clearly. After all, few people dared to
gamble with their lives. Even a fortune teller couldn't know he would be unscathed after jumping from
the seventh floor. She would have died if Jacob hadn't hugged her or if the inflatable mattress had not
arrived in time.
But Jacob firmly believed Avery was playing hard to get, so he would not listen to John's words.
Nolan asked a nurse to clean up the mess in the ward. Then, he flattened the bed and patiently
comforted Avery, saying, "Mrs. Hill, you should have communicated with Mr. Hill with a better attitude.
There is no need to be so extreme. He cares about you. He waited outside for an entire night. You..."
Avery didn't want to hear such words at all. So, she asked, "Dr. Blake, is there an error in the medical
examination report?"
He immediately became serious and said, "You can insult my personality but not my professionalism.
The people who examined you are all experts. They must not have made mistakes."
Then, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "I was shocked when I found out your white blood cell
count was so low last night. I thought it was... By the way, you haven't had any treatment recently,
right?" Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
He asked this question out of a doctor's responsibility.
