Sweet Sorrow

Chapter 217 Nicole, You Look So Haggard

"Hello, I'm Jim Du. I got your name card from you. I..."

Hearing it was Jim, Jacob quickly walked to an empty room and closed the door.

"It's you. What's wrong? Is your mother feeling better now?" Jacob guessed boldly when he heard Jim's voice was not so sad.

Jim nodded and looked at Judy's ward from time to time. He said to Jacob, "mom has been transferred to the general ward today. She just woke up for a while and then fell asleep again."

If she was transferred to the general ward, her life would be out of danger.

Jacob felt relieved and answered incoherently, "Okay, that's good, that's good."

"Okay..." The reason why [Jim called him was not only because he was told by Jacob, but also because he thought that Jacob should be able to help him with the current situation.

"What's wrong? Tell me. Jim, where is your sister? Is she okay? " Jacob took the initiative to ask as Jacob felt that Jim wanted to say something.

Jim answered honestly, My "sister is not good."

"What's wrong with her?" Jacob said in upset.

Jim shook his head, "she feels fine. She's been guarding my mother outside the ICU these days, but she doesn't sleep much. She's been staring blankly, and she's not in a good mood. Besides, she seems to have some conflict with my mother. "

"Okay..." Jacob closed his eyes. The conflict between Judy and Nicole was also caused by him. "Jim, please take good care of your mother and sister these days. When your mother calms down, you can

call me again, okay?"

Jim nodded, "okay."

"Besides, if your sister doesn't go to bed tonight, please tell me and I'll take her to bed."

"Okay. Then I'll go back to the ward first. I'll call you later. "

"Okay, go ahead," said Jacob gently

After the phone was hung up, Jacob heaved a long sigh. He was glad that Judy was fine and that everything could be redeemed.

After tidying up his emotions and expressions, Jacob put on a gentle and casual smile and left the room, walking towards his mother and aunts.

"Mom, auntie, are you thirsty? Let me prepare some fruits."

"You don't have to do this. Just let the servants go."

Jacob shrugged and smiled sweetly, "If let them go. How can I express my love?"

"What a sweet talker!"

At this critical moment, he couldn't lose his temper. Jacob, who had always been unruly, was so restrained, cautious and even fawning. It was all because he was afraid. He had someone he didn't dare to lose.

When Judy woke up, she didn't talk much. She either closed her eyes to sleep or looked at the ceiling quietly.

Sometimes, seeing her so sad, Nicole wanted to find a topic, but she didn't know what to say.

In the evening, Jim said to Nicole in the corridor, "sister, you can go back and have a rest. I'll stay here with mom."

After staying in the general ward, they were not allowed to have a simple bed in the corridor.

Nicole shook her head and refused her brother's kindness. "You can go now. I'll stay with mom."

"Sister..."

"I can't fall asleep anyway." Nicole smiled sadly, "even if I fall asleep, I won't feel at ease. So you'd better go to sleep."

Jim couldn't dissuade his sister, but he felt sorry for her when he saw the dark circles in her eyes. He didn't argue with his sister anymore. After she entered the ward, he went to the nurse desk and called Jacob. Jacob said on the phone that he would come here as soon as possible.

Standing at the entrance of the corridor, Jim waited anxiously. After more than half an hour, Jacob finally arrived at the hospital.

Although the two of them talked a lot on the phone, in reality, the two of them were actually strangers. Jim was a little timid.

"Where is your sister?" Jacob asked straightforwardly.

Jim pressed his lips and answered, "in my mother's ward."

Jacob thought for a while and asked, "What about your mother? Is she asleep now?"

"I don't know, we have wiped her face just now."

Now that Nicole had done what she should do, he could directly take Nicole away.

Jacob ordered Jim, "go downstairs and ask your sister to come out secretly. Tell her the nurse called her."

"And then?"

"Then I'll take your sister to rest. You'll take care of your mother tonight. Is that okay? "

Jim nodded heavily, clenched his fists and promised, "yes!"

With a relieved smile on his face, Jacob couldn't help but touch Jim's head, as if he was touching his own brother. "Thank you for your hard work tonight."

Jim shook his head, "I don't think it's hard."

"You are a man." Jacob nodded and said, "Okay, go and call your sister."

"Okay, I'll go."

Standing in the shadow of the entrance of the corridor, Jacob watched Jim enter the ward and come out with Nicole, walking towards him.

When they passed the stairway, two steps forward, Jacob grabbed Nicole's arm.

"Nicole."

Nicole didn't expect that Jacob would suddenly appear. She was frightened and her face darkened. "Why are you here?"

Jacob said, "I'm here for you."

Nicole's face changed, but she still said coldly, "you can go back first. When my mother gets better, I'll go to meet you. Now let go of me first. I'm going to see a nurse."

"No nurse." Jacob winked at Jim. After Jim turned around and left, he continued, "I asked Jim to call you here. I have something to tell you."

"Jim..." Nicole looked around but did not find Jim.

Jacob heard from Jim on the phone that Nicole didn't have a rest for a few days. He felt so sorry for her when he saw the real person and saw the haggard look of Nicole.

He couldn't help hugging Nicole and holding Nicole tightly.

"Jacob This is the hospital... " Nicole was so tired that she didn't have the strength to push Jacob away. She nestled on his chest and weakly expressed her resistance.

Jacob felt that the piece of paper in his arms was about to break at any time, like a person who was holding a piece of paper. He said with concern, "well, let's leave first."

"Leave?" Nicole raised her voice, "where are we going? I won't go anywhere. " Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Seeing Nicole's expression, Jacob knew that Nicole wouldn't go to rest with him obediently. He thought for a while and said to Nicole, "I have something to tell you. Would you like to listen to me?"

"What do you mean?"

"You go to a place with me first." With Nicole in his arms, Jacob walked towards the elevator. "I'll tell you as you go with me."
