Chapter 1427
Mr. Jarvis smiled with affection and said, “I made you all worry.”
Estelle held Mr. Jarvis’s hand tightly and said. Tm not just worried, I’m scared out of my wits. I’ve talked to Dr. Ollie,
we’re taking you to the hospital for a full
check-up today”
Mr. Jarvis immediately frowned and said, I’m as fit as a fiddle, what’s the need for any check-up? They’ll find
something wrong even if there’s nothing”
Jonathan joined in: Tve given the hospital a heads up, we can start as soon as we get there. All the tests will be in
the same place, it won’t be a drag.”
“The moment i step into a hospital, I smell that particular scent and start getting headaches. They might find
something even if there’s nothing”
Mr. Jarvis said this while giving Dr. Ollie a knowing look
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDr. Ollie chuckled. If Mr. Jarvis doesn’t want to go to the hospital, we won’t. I used to check up on him once a
month, I can make it every ten days now, along with some medication, so that yesterday’s episode doesn’t repeat.”
Estelle had to compromise. If you don’t want to go to the hospital, we won’t. But you’ve got to listen to Dr. Ollie and
take your meds on time. Don’t throw them away behind Mr. Wade’s back, unless you fancy giving me another scare
Mr. Jarvis held Estelle’s hand and grinned, “Don’t worry, Wade will make sure I take my meds.”
Estelle finally relaxed “Grandpa, what do you fancy for breakfast? I could whip something up.”
The room went silent at her words.
Jonathan patted Estelle’s head and said, “You didn’t sleep a wink last night, you should rest. The kitchen’s already
on breakfast.”
Mr. Jarvis looked at Jonathan and said seriously, “Estelle’s perfect, except her cooking’s a disaster, you’ve got to
bear with that”
Jonathan smirked, saying. “You’re too harsh. We have cooks at home, and even if we didn’t, I can cook, there’s no
need for Estelle to lift a finger”
Estelle sat at the head of the bed, listening to them discuss her terrible cooking skills, even Dr. Ollie was chuckling
Embarrassed and angry, she decided to up her cooking game, gure, she could do it!
Mr. Wade came in with newly brewed medicine, and Estelle took it from him.
Mr. Jarvis scrunched up his face at the smell of the medicine and refused, saying, “feel fine, I don’t need this.”
Tve added sugar to it” Dr. Ollie quickly said.
“No amount of sugar can mask the bittemess.” Mr. Jarvis retorted.
“No matter what you say, you’re drinking this!” Estelle said sternly, “Or I’m calling Gabriel right now”
“Fine, I’ll drink!” Mr. Jarvis reluctantly agreed with a pair of wide eyes.
Jonathan came to the bedside, helping Mr. Jarvis sit up and lean on him. Estelle tasted the temperature of the
medicine, then spoon-fed it to Mr. Jarvis
Dr. Ollie and Wade chuckled, left the room, and shut the door.
Jonathan looked at Estelle’s beautiful face; her serious look filled his heart with warmth. He even started imagining
that if he got old or got sick, she would be patiently feeding him medicine.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMr. Jarvis grumbled but drank the medicine.
Estelle offered Mr. Jarvis a piece of fruit-flavored soft candy, and he finally cheered up
Dr. Ollie came to give Mr. Jarvis an injection, while Estelle and Jonathan went to have breakfast.
Crossing the yard, Estelle said, “I plan to stay here a few more days and go back to J City once Mr. Jarvis is fully
recovered. You should head back today, Mr. Jarvis is stable now”
“No, I’ll stay with you, by Mr. Jarvis’s side” Jonathan held Estelle’s hand tightly and said, “Please don’t ask me to
leave. I feel uneasy”
Estelle laughed, saying, “Mr. Jarvis is fine, we’ve sorted out our issues, what’s there to feel uneasy about? There’s
plenty to do at the company, and your family just got back, it’s a busy time”
“I can manage the company’s work through video calls; Janice Harper might have told Geoffrey Lamont and
Cathenne Lamont about us, no matter what you say, I’m not leaving” Jonathan said it firmly
“Can’t you ever take my advice?” Estelle frowned.
“Anything but asking me to leave Jonathan stood still and leaned down to kiss Estelle’s forehead 1 got pretty scared
before, [‘m still feeling the jitters.”
