Chapter 267


    Just as everyone went to the cemetery to say goodbye to Jessica, Lan sent someone to drive Gavin


    and Jessica to Birmingham.


    After getting on the ne, Gavin was relieved.


    He asked the staff on the ne to take care of Jessica in the room.


    He knew that he and Jessica were still strangers. He couldn''t be too close, or else, Jessica would be


    very ufortable.


    However, he had been guarding Jessica outside all the time.


    If Lucas was around, the atmosphere between them would be better.


    Lucas was supposed to board the ne and go back to Hond with them, but Gavin didn''t agree.


    In order to avoid arousing suspicion from others, especially Oliver, Gavin specifically asked Lucas to


    stay in QN Town for the time being.


    Lucas also understood his father''s intention and stayed until the end.


    The next day, he returned to Birmingham.


    Before he left, he called Oliver. It was Simon who answered.


    It was a farewell call.


    If Jessica didn''t go back to Birmingham in the future, this might be thest time he came back.


    He had to obey his father. Birmingham was not the ce for the Kim family toe back.


    As soon as Simon heard that Lucas was leaving, he drove to the Mose Clubhouse and wanted to take


    him to the airport.


    Lucas did not refuse.


    Along the way, Simon felt sorry for Oliver and Jessica.


    Sadly, they would never see each other again.


    Lucas was in no mood to listen to Simon about Oliver''s sad stories at all. Instead, he was thinking


    about what''s happening in Hond.


    At Leiden Medical College.


    As soon as the ne arrived, Jessica was sent to the inpatient department of the Leiden Medical


    College.


    Gavin asked the secretary to invite the famous Nobel Laureate, Dr. William, and his team to treat the


    wound on Jessica''s face.


    The doctors examined the wound. It was very severe. Coupled with her scar constitution, it was difficult


    to restore her skin. Even the most powerful doctors could not.


    Gavin said to the doctors that the safety of the patient was the main concern.


    No matter what her face turned into, she was the most beautiful girl in his eyes, the precious daughter


    of him.


    Jessica had a thorough examination at Leiden and was checked out that she was very weak.


    It was mostly caused by touching water in the short term after she had given birth to a child. Her health


    was in great deficit and she needed to be slowly recuperated.


    As Gavin listened to the doctors'' analysis, he felt heartbroken.


    He would rather that he bore all the pain than Jessica suffered any harm.


    Because of his dereliction of duty, his daughter suffered a lot. And then his nose stung.


    After arriving in Hond, Lucas went straight to the Leiden Medical School.


    When he arrived, Jessica was sleeping.


    And his father looked extremely haggard without seeing for two days. Gavin, he had seen since he was


    a child, was always energetic.


    He said, "Dad, what''s wrong with you?"


    "I''m fine. I''m just a little tired." Gavin answered.


    "I''m sorry. You''re tired because of my friend. Now that I''m back, you can go home and have a good


    rest."said Lucas.

    Gavin looked at Lucas''s innocent face, but he didn''t know how to put it.


    Thest time he wanted to tell Lucas Jessica''s real identity, he was interrupted by Oliver''s phone call.


    Afterwards, because it was urgent, he did not exin any more.


    Now that they were back in Hond, everything was settled. It was supposed to be a time to celebrate


    when their family was reunited.


    However, he felt guilty. Knowing the physical suffering Jessica had undergone, he could know how


    miserable her life in Birmingham was.


    He wasn''t qualified to be a father. He couldn''t tell Lucas about their birth of the twins.


    However, he had to find a convincing reason to stay in the hospital.


    He used to be a workaholic. His position in Europe was the result of his hard work.


    He rarely dyed his work for other people. In the past, only Lucas''s things could change his schedule.


    He said calmly, "She''s my friend''s daughter as well as your friend. As an elder, I should take care of


    her."


    "Well, I know you people pay the most attention to friendship, and I will satisfy you. But you have to


    promise me to have a good rest, or I will ask your secretary to take you home."said Lucas.


    Finally, the perfunctory answer worked.


    With Lucas by Jessica''s side, he was relieved at longst.


    Seeing Jessica woke up, Lucas walked to her and said, "Jessica, I''m back to apany you."


    Jessica was about to reach out for the pen and paper on the bed. It was specifically instructed by the


    doctors for her to write anything down on the paper.


    Because she couldn''t speak now. As soon as she spoke, the muscles around her mouth would move


    and tear the wound.


    Seeing that, Lucas handed her the paper and pen on the table.


    The first sentence Jessica wrote was ''''thank you and uncle''''.


    Lucas said, "From now on, you will be my sister. If you have anything, just let your brother know. I won''t


    let anyone bully you here."


    The corners of Jessica''s eyes were wet again.


    How she wanted to have such a brother, even in her dreams.


    During her hospitalization, there was a scene of ying with Lucas when she was a child every day in


    her dreams .


    Jessicaughed at herself in her heart. She had been lying in bed for a long time, and was almost


    crazy. When she was a child, she had never seen Lucas. One of them was in Birmingham, the other


    was somewhere in Hond.


    Gavin went back to rest and soon fell asleep soundly.


    This was the first time he had slept a whole night since he saw Jessica.


    For a few days in a row, Lucas felt it was a little strange when he saw that his dad had not left.


    It was too unlike his usual father.


    He was used to European independence and rarely bothered others because of his own business.


    Others would care for strangers out of humanitarianism, but not like his dad.


    As long as the doctor said something about Jessica''s condition, his dad looked even more nervous


    than his.


    He had been observing for several days, and he had a guess in his heart.


    So he went to the coffee shop in the hospital with his dad.


    "Just have coffee in the ward. Why are we here?"asked Gavin.


    He was not willing to stay away from Jessica''s ward at all. As long as he could get closer to her, he felt


    very contented.


    So, if Lucas hadn''t dragged him out, he wouldn''t havee out for coffee.


    "I have something to talk to you about."said Lucas.


    "What''s the matter? Hurry up and say it. If Jessica can''t find us, she''ll be so anxious. Dutchmen speak


    English with an ent. She may not understand it."said Gavin.


    Lucas stared at him, and felt that there must be something wrong.


    Gavin focused on Jessica in a wholehearted way,pletely ignoring Lucas''s suspicions.
