Chapter 679


    Looking at the nurse, Ashlyn uttered, “Thank you for bringing this.”


    Seeing that, Jonathan hurriedly stood up and epted the lunch box.


    The rich aroma of the breakfast filled the air the moment he opened the lid.


    Opening the lunch box, he noted that it contained oatmeal porridge with a few side dishes.


    Even so, as soon as Naomi smelled the food, she could not help shaking her head in disgust.

    She felt nauseous and ufortable.


    Ashlyn became worried about Naomi’s current condition. Naomi hasn’t eaten anything since she woke


    up. Besides, she seems very weak at the moment. She’s so fragile that she can be blown away by a


    gust of wind.


    With that thought in mind, she wrote on the paper again: What do you want to eat? I’ll have someone


    prepare it for you.


    “Can you cook me a te of pasta? It doesn’t matter if it’s spaghetti bolognese or anything. I just want


    to eat something you cook.” Naomi looked at her with red-rimmed eyes.


    She had no appetite to eat anything at that moment. Even if Jonathan had just prepared some fruits for


    her, she would still refuse to eat.


    Listening to Naomi’s croaky voice, Ashlyn naturally did not refuse her.


    She wrote I’ll go to the hospital’s kitchen to prepare the dish for you. Wait for me.


    After Ashlyn left, Naomi fell asleep again.


    While she was sleeping, Jonathan watched over her.


    All of a sudden, the manager pushed the door open. “Jonathan.”


    Jonathan immediately signaled Isaac to be quiet.


    After a pause, he suddenly recalled that Naomi could not hear any noise, no matter how loud it was.


    Well, my cautiousness seems unnecessary in this case.


    Bending over, he tucked Naomi in with the quilt. Then he strode to the door. “What’s wrong?”


    “You have a program scheduled for this afternoon. It’s a publicity activity for your sponsor. You must go


    now,” informed Isaac.


    After listening to the manager’s exnation, Jonathan looked hesitantly toward the bed. Suddenly, he


    heard a weak voiceing from behind.


    Turning around, Jonathan noticed Naomi was looking at him. He hurriedly replied to Isaac, ”I’ll go when


    Ashlyn is back.”


    He felt uneasy about leaving Naomi all alone in the ward.


    Observing the expressions of Jonathan and Isaac, the beautiful youngdy knew something was


    amiss.


    Biting her lip, Naomi looked at Jonathan with a smile. “You can leave first if you’re busy. Lucas and


    ir wille to visit meter.”


    Jonathan wrote in reply: It’s all right. I can leaveter.


    Shaking her head, Naomi pursed her pale lips at him. “You’re a celebrity. They’ll cklist you if you


    don’t attend these publicity activities. No one will work with you in the future.”


    It’s heartbreaking to see how mature and thoughtful she is despite her condition.


    At that moment, Ashlyn returned with the pasta.


    “Now that Ashlyn is back, you can stop worrying, right?” Naomi stated yfully.


    Upon hearing that, Jonathan nodded. “I’lle back to keep youpany when I’m done.”


    Jonathan’s heart sank as he stared at Naomi. She was his assistant as well as his partner in acting. If it


    were not for his carelessness, she would not have ingested the spiked drink.


    Well, my cautiousness seems unnecessary in this case.


    Deep down, Jonathan’s heart was filled with guilt. He kept ming himself for not taking good care of


    her.


    In truth, Naomi still had not regained her appetite.


    She felt like throwing up at the sight of food.


    Still, she suppressed the waves of nausea by pretending to eat cheerfully, slowly, one bite at a time.


    Naomi did not want to tell Ashlyn that she could not taste any vor at that moment.


    It was as if her taste buds had been affected by the poison.


    When Ashlyn noticed Naomi was willingly eating, she let out a sigh of relief.


    It was a gut-wrenching sight for them when Naomi did not even drink water or take the soup earlier.


    Seeing that Naomi was eating again, Jonathan eventually left the hospital.


    He could not afford to bete for the afternoon schedule.


    After finishing the pasta, Naomi remarked, “I’m done eating, Ashlyn. It’s very delicious.”


    Ashlyn took a tissue and handed it to Naomi for her to wipe her mouth.


    “Ashlyn, you should go back first. The nurses here can take care of me. You don’t have to worry,”


    Naomi reassured.


    Then she added, “ir wille to visit meter.”


    Nodding, Ashlyn responded, “Okay. I’ll consult with other doctorster this afternoon. We’ll see what


    the most suitable treatment is based on your current situation.”
