Chapter 670


    Looking at the mess in the kitchen, it was likely that she had put the ss bowl on the stovetop, causing it to shatter.


    She had stopped sobbing. It was clear that she was scared as her body was trembling. She whimpered, "I just wanted to make


    you some eggs. My ssmates said you won''t be sick if you eat more eggs."


    When | looked closely, | saw two eggs next to the stove. | could not quite process what had just happened. Everything felt unreal.


    As | carried Anne onto myp, | felt a sudden pang of heartache. For the past few days, | had been so preupied with the


    thoughts of Josiahing over to see her, that | had been distracted and absent-minded most of the time. This was why she


    mistook me for feeling sick.


    “Anne, I''m sorry. |..." Before | could continue talking, my heart wrenched in pain again and tears started pooling in my eyes.


    Hendrix looked at us, his face painted with a mix of emotions. He walked towards us and wrapped his arms around us. He


    comforted us gently, "It''s okay, everything''s fine now. Whatever you do next time, safety first."


    | pursed my lips, feeling sick in my stomach. | tried to hold back from vomiting, but my efforts were futile. | couldn''t take it


    anymore and headed straight to the bathroom.


    | puked everything up. When | left the bathroom, Hendrix and Anne were staring at me worriedly at the doorway.


    "Mr. Roberts, is Mummy not feeling well?" Anne asked, her eyes red and swollen.


    Hendrix remained tight-lipped, his handsome face seemed unforting. After a long pause, he asked Anne to go to the


    courtyard to y with Snowball.


    | wiped my hands and was about to exin myself when Hendrix cut me off.


    "We''re going to the hospital!" He took me by the arm and headed straight for the car porch.


    | pushed him away instantly, feeling like | wasn''t in the best state of mind. | frowned disapprovingly and asserted sotto voce, "I''m


    good. | think my digestive system just hasn''t been working welltely, which exins my nausea."


    His eyes were visibly bloodshot. Glowering at me, he asked, "How long have yo been experiencing this?"


    How long?


    | did not reply immediately. As | thought about it, it seemed like | had this issue for quite some time now. It began after | met with


    Irvin. From then on, | had the tendency to puke whenever | was feeling down.


    "It''s been a while," | muttered. Perhaps | had been sick all along, even more so in the recent weeks that Josiah had been visiting


    Anne.


    Hendrix frowned as he tried to collect himself. Though he was trying to remainposed, | could tell that he was close to losing


    it.


    “Let''s go to the hospital for a check- up," he muttered under his breath. Had | not listened carefully, | would not have been able to


    discern the emotion in his words.


    | started to feel a little annoyed. Not wanting to squabble over this issue, | pushed him away once more and yelled assertively,


    "Didn''t you hear me? | said I''m good. I''m all good. It''s not like you''re deaf."


    As much as he was bbergasted at my response, so was |. Since my return to Jarold City, this had been the first time | yelled at


    him.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.


    For a moment, | was lost for words. | wanted to make amends for what | had just said. "I..."


    | couldn''t even get another word out before the nausea kicked in again.


    As Evan walked in, he saw us getting


    entangled in an argument impasse.

    Evan nodded. Sensing something was amiss between Hendrix and I, he quickly excused himself to make the call.

    out of his pocket.


    | screamed, "I told you I''m not going to the hospital. | don''t want to go. What are you guys trying to do?"
