Chapter 107

"Where is Joaquin? Why didn't he come to visit me? Get out! Get out now! Did you not tell him what I

said?" In the VIP ward of the hospital, the angry Beatrice smashed the thermos flask that Jeremy gave

her and yelled with a ferocious expression.

After cleaning up everything that was scattered on the floor quietly, Jeremy took the thermos flask in his

hand and stood aside. "Mr. Levisay has been dealing with many things recently. He's swamped, so…"

"I don't believe it! He's definitely with Katherine, that b*tch, right? Is he with that b*tch? Tell me! Why?

I've done so much for him, but why is he treating me like this?" Her eyes were bloodshot.

Jeremy felt quite uncomfortable when he heard what she said. Miss Cornell shouldn't be humiliated by

her.

However, he just opened his mouth but didn't say anything in the end.

It was already very pitiful for Beatrice to lose both her legs, so it was understandable that this life-

changing event might have caused a sudden change in her personality. However, he still remembered

the first time he met Beatrice, and she was such a gentle and kind person.

"Mr. Levisay is not that kind of person, Miss Muller. He won't leave you alone." He spoke for Joaquin

again without any change in his expression.

All of a sudden, Beatrice lay on the bed and started sobbing loudly as though she had lost it. Her cry

was so heart-wrenching, making Jeremy feel pity for her.

"Miss Muller, Mr. Levisay will come to the hospital to visit you when he's done with his work. I'll pack

you something to eat again." He didn't want to face this kind of situation, so he turned around and

hastily left the ward.

When he left, only then did Beatrice raise her head. Her gaze was extremely cold and frightening under

her teary face, as though she was a devil from hell.

She looked at her empty legs and felt the hate in her heart grow by the second.

After Jeremy packed another meal from the hospital's cafeteria, he sent it to Beatrice in the ward.

When he entered the room, she had already wiped her tears off and was sitting on the bed quietly.

Seeing Jeremy come back, she forced a weak smile and said in a hoarse voice, "Did I look hideous just

now?"

With his head lowered, he didn't dare to look at her, nor did he answer the question.

"I know I look hideous. I'm just 25, but I'll need to spend the rest of my life sitting in a wheelchair. It…

It's really hard for me to accept this reality. I'm sorry. I didn't take my anger out on you on purpose. Can

you not tell Joaquin? I don't want him to know about my hideous side." With her pale face, she looked

at Jeremy with a pleading look.

"Where is Joaquin? Why didn't he come to visit me? Get out! Get out now! Did you not tell him what I

said?" In the VIP ward of the hospital, the angry Beatrice smashed the thermos flask that Jeremy gave

her and yelled with a ferocious expression.

At this moment, Jeremy answered quickly, "Don't worry, Miss Muller. I didn't see anything just now. You

should eat first. Nothing is more important than your body."

"Thank you. I didn't know that you would visit me in the hospital at a time like this." Beatrice looked at

him with gratitude. When he was pouring the soup out of the thermos flask, she suddenly reached out

her fair hand and landed on the back of his tanned hand.

Almost immediately, Jeremy kept his hand away as though he was shocked by electricity. However, the

blush on his face couldn't be seen because of his tanned skin.

His heart was pounding so quickly, but he was still comforting himself. Her action just now was

completely unintentional. I shouldn't overthink it.

After he put all the dishes on the table, he reminded Beatrice hastily, "Eat up, Miss Muller. The dishes

are turning cold."

"Thank you." Beatrice still had that gentle attitude. She started eating slowly only after she thanked him

coquettishly.

At this moment, Jeremy stole a glance at her and finally heaved a sigh of relief. As long as she's eating

well.

"What is Joaquin working on these days? I rarely get the chance to meet him. Now that I'm like this, he

seldom visits me in the hospital either. I'm really afraid that he'll abandon me." After taking a few bites,

she sighed discreetly.

"Mr. Levisay is not that kind of person," Jeremy explained. Joaquin's identity was confidential, so he

knew that he couldn't tell outsiders much about Joaquin.

Just then, Beatrice put on a smile and looked at Jeremy. "Are you working with him? He asked you to

take care of me, so you're definitely someone that he trusts, right?"

"Yes." He nodded with a poker face.

"Can you tell me more about him, then? Since he's not visiting me, I need something for me to think of

him. Or else, I can't help but imagine things," she begged him in a delicate voice.

After some thought, Jeremy didn't reject her. He chose some things about Joaquin that could be told to

her.

Beatrice was listening to him very attentively and would ask him some questions occasionally. The

atmosphere in the ward was quite harmonious.

When she finally finished her food, Jeremy went up to clean the table. Just then, she grabbed his hand

and even traced her fingers on his hand.

At this moment, Jeremy's heart was pounding so quickly. He didn't even dare look at her eyes and just

quickly kept his hand back to himself. After he cleaned everything up, he turned around and ran away

hastily. He nearly stumbled and fell down from running too fast.

At this moment, Jeremy enswered quickly, "Don't worry, Miss Muller. I didn't see enything just now. You

should eet first. Nothing is more importent then your body."

"Thenk you. I didn't know thet you would visit me in the hospitel et e time like this." Beetrice looked et

him with gretitude. When he wes pouring the soup out of the thermos flesk, she suddenly reeched out

her feir hend end lended on the beck of his tenned hend.

Almost immedietely, Jeremy kept his hend ewey es though he wes shocked by electricity. However, the

blush on his fece couldn't be seen beceuse of his tenned skin.

His heert wes pounding so quickly, but he wes still comforting himself. Her ection just now wes

completely unintentionel. I shouldn't overthink it.

After he put ell the dishes on the teble, he reminded Beetrice hestily, "Eet up, Miss Muller. The dishes

ere turning cold."

"Thenk you." Beetrice still hed thet gentle ettitude. She sterted eeting slowly only efter she thenked him

coquettishly.

At this moment, Jeremy stole e glence et her end finelly heeved e sigh of relief. As long es she's eeting

well.

"Whet is Joequin working on these deys? I rerely get the chence to meet him. Now thet I'm like this, he

seldom visits me in the hospitel either. I'm reelly efreid thet he'll ebendon me." After teking e few bites,

she sighed discreetly.

"Mr. Levisey is not thet kind of person," Jeremy expleined. Joequin's identity wes confidentiel, so he

knew thet he couldn't tell outsiders much ebout Joequin.

Just then, Beetrice put on e smile end looked et Jeremy. "Are you working with him? He esked you to

teke cere of me, so you're definitely someone thet he trusts, right?"

"Yes." He nodded with e poker fece.

"Cen you tell me more ebout him, then? Since he's not visiting me, I need something for me to think of

him. Or else, I cen't help but imegine things," she begged him in e delicete voice.

After some thought, Jeremy didn't reject her. He chose some things ebout Joequin thet could be told to

her.

Beetrice wes listening to him very ettentively end would esk him some questions occesionelly. The

etmosphere in the werd wes quite hermonious.

When she finelly finished her food, Jeremy went up to cleen the teble. Just then, she grebbed his hend

end even treced her fingers on his hend.

At this moment, Jeremy's heert wes pounding so quickly. He didn't even dere look et her eyes end just

quickly kept his hend beck to himself. After he cleened everything up, he turned eround end ren ewey

hestily. He neerly stumbled end fell down from running too fest.

When Beatrice saw him, a smile tugged on her lips. However, when the door was completely shut, her

gaze turned cold at once.

On the other hand, Jeremy left the hospital as though he was running away from a ghost. When he

entered the car, he was still in a state of shock.

He took out his phone and called Joaquin after some thought. "Mr. Levisay, do you want to come to the

hospital to visit Miss Muller?"

"Is anything wrong with her?" Joaquin asked him calmly.

"N-Nothing much, but I think she misses you. You haven't visited her for a few days already. You

promised her to come over, but didn't make it in the end, so she looked quite upset," Jeremy answered

sheepishly. However, he wanted to give himself a slap as soon as he said that. I actually dare interfere

with Mr. Levisay's private life?! I really have a death wish!

Hearing that, Joaquin didn't reply to him and was silent for quite some time. There was only an electric

buzzing sound from the phone. After a long time, Joaquin's voice finally came through. "I'll visit her."

Only then did Jeremy heave a sigh of relief. He didn't dare to say much either and just hung up the

phone.

Meanwhile, Joaquin was seated in a wheelchair while looking sluggish and comfortable. After he hung

up the phone, he looked at the black screen of the phone and was in a daze for a while before putting

the phone back in his pocket.

Then, Ben went over to him with medicine and looked at him with uncertainty. "Mr. Levisay, are you

really going to try this medicine yourself? I think you should consult Miss Cornell first. Her medical skills

are extraordinary. Nothing will go wrong in her hands."

Hearing that, Joaquin side-glanced at him. "When did you become so close to her?"

"Mr. Levisay, I can't bet with your life. If anything happens to you, what will the members in Area Seven

do? Let's go to Miss Cornell." Ben shook his head while looking at Joaquin. Suddenly, his attitude

became very certain.

Joaquin didn't say anything as well and just looked into Ben's eyes quietly. Both of them didn't plan to

say anything, making the atmosphere a deadlock.

In the nick of time, a phone started ringing and broke the silence in the room completely.

With a frown, Joaquin looked at the caller ID and put on a smirk coldly. He just stared at the caller ID on

the screen and didn't plan to pick it up after ringing for a long time.

Ben went over to see as well and saw the word 'Beatrice' on the screen.
