Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1561
“…It’s my fault. I’ll pay right now,” Rodney felt like biting his tongue off.
He linked the consultation card to his phone clumsily according to the instructions on the wall about the mobile payment.
After paying the bill, he accompanied Freya for a blood test.
Seeing so much blood being drawn, he began to feel annoyed. “Why do you need to draw so much blood for a prenatal test?”
The nurse who was drawing Freya’s blood gave him an innocent look. “It’s necessary. As the baby grows older, more screening tests are needed to ensure that the baby and the mother are healthy and safe.”
Rodney pursed his thin lips. Only after the blood test was over did he say to Freya seriously, “I’m going to buy a chicken and cook you some broth to help replenish your blood.”
Freya cast a confused look at him. “Thank you. Your words suddenly reminded me of my mom.” Rodney was speechless.
His words reminded her of her mom? What did it mean?
Was he like her mom?
Rodney, who was treating her tenderly, felt as though a bucket of cold water was poured over him. “Please keep your mouth shut.”
“How dare you ask me to shut my mouth,” Freya’s eyes narrowed.
“No. I feel that… You really deserved to be single for many years, ” Rodney teased her.
Freya, who had indeed been single for many years, was furious instantly. “What gives you the right to insult me? You deserved to be single for over ten years too. At least I wasn’t single for as long as you did.”
“That’s because I’m older, okay?”
