Chapter 2051
Tim lowered his head, and the only thing he saw was Bonnie’s beautiful face, tilted to one side so he would not see
her tears.
She was extremely thin, so much so that her jawline looked as though it had been carved with a pencil, so sharp
that she did not need any highlighter or bronzer to accentuate it.
Her tear streaks glimmered in the bright light.
Jim let out a sigh, but no matter how reluctant he was to do so, he still reached his hand out.
When his warm palm laid on her abdomen, Bonnie’s entire body stiffened as though she had been struck by
lightning.
Her entire body was frozen in shock, but Jim’s warm hand gently caressed her abdomen as he muttered, “It’ll be
fine, B. You’ll be fine…”
Even though his tone was unnaturally stiff, without a single hint of tenderness within them, Bonnie still felt her heart

She closed her eyes and tried to stop her tears from falling.
The car arrived at the hospital with the two of them in this somewhat awkward position.
After parking the car, Sean got out of the driver’s seat and summoned a few doctors and nurses.
Jim, on the other hand, got out of the car with Bonnie in his arms.
As he opened the door, he asked in a low voice, “Does it still hurt?”
Bonnie sniffed and shook her head. “Not anymore.”
With that, she removed herself from Jim’s grasp and, with Sean’s help, dragged herself onto the stretcher.
Jim naturally followed her into the emergency room. However, he had just taken a few steps when Bonnie turned
and smiled at him. “You can go home now, Mr. Landry. My boyfriend will be here to take care of me.”
The two men froze when they heard this.
Sean never thought that Bonnie would continue to play along and claim that he was her boyfriend.
Jim, on the other hand, froze in his steps when he heard those two words.
The doctors continued to wheel Bonnie into the hospital.

He could not find any reason to.
Sean was her boyfriend, whereas he was the reason she had gotten hurt in the first place.
What right did he have to follow her and keep her company in the emergency room?
As soon as he thought of this, Jim closed his eyes, let out a sigh, and strode out of the hospital.
He was just about to get into the car when he ran into Theo, who had come out of the hospital at the same time.
“Jim?” Theo furrowed his brows and shot Jim a puzzled glance. “What are you doing at the hospital at this hour?”
Jim glanced at him, frowning. “Do we know each other?”
He had seen this man before; he seemed to be a friend of Luna and Joshua’s and had been staying at Joshua’s

However, he never thought that he and this man would have known each other.
Jim lowered his head and furrowed his brows when he caught sight of the bottle of children’s flu medicine in Theo’s
hand. “Is someone sick?”
Theo lived with Joshua, and two children were staying at Joshua’s at the moment: Nigel, who was Joshua and Luna’s
son, as well as Harvey, Jim’s own.
If Harvey was sick, it was impossible for him not to be concerned.

Theo paused, then quickly hid the medicine bottle behind his back, smiling sheepishly. “It’s me. I don’t like the taste
of adult medicine, so I came here to buy children’s medicine.”
With that, he glanced at Jim and asked, “What about you? What’re you doing here so late at night?”
Before Jim could answer his question, Theo’s phone rang.
Jim sharply noticed that the name on the screen read, (Roanne.] He narrowed his eyes in suspicion. “You’ve been in
touch with Roanne all this while?”
