Let's Get Married novel Chapter 760

In a word, she can't feel it sweeter. Before, Jasmine doesn't understand the pure happiness of her roommates when they are calling or texting their boyfriends. The world seems so beautiful in their eyes filled with love.

Now she understands.

Every word that comes out of the mouth of the beloved one, is endowed with the special meaning.

She will only feel offended instead of sweet if these words come from anyone else.

A phone call from Pehry disrupts her girlish fancy.

She is startled by the phone's vibration. Seeing the caller ID, she glances at the locked bathroom door, and holds back the impulse to answer it.

Bridget will definitely hear it if she answers the phone.

She can only withhold her inside restlessness and hang up the phone. Pehry seems to know that it's inconvenient for her right now and doesn't continue to call. He just sends her an emoji of an unhappy face.

Jasmine's heart softens. They have just met in dinner time, but she still misses his voice.

So, at the risk of being caught, she puts the phone in her pocket and goes out of the bathroom. She said to Bridget, who is already lying on the small bed, "Mom, I'm going out to get some hot water to soak my feet."

Bridget raises her head to look at her, "Isn't there any water in the thermos?"

"Save that for drinking. I'll go to the water room to get some more."

Bridget did not doubt her words, "Alright, then come back quickly, don't delay."

"I know."

Jasmine sneaks out of the ward and walks quickly into the water room with her phone, paying no attention to the usually gloomy and terrifying place.

The first thing she does is to call Pehry back.

The phone rings for less than two seconds before it is picked up. Pehry's clear and gentle voice comes through, causing her ear to go limp and numb, "Hello? Am I dreaming? You actually called me back?"

"..."

Jasmine remains silent for a while, and she feels her feelings beyond description, "I called you several times, okay?"

Why does he sound like she has never called him herself?

"Oh, I thought you wouldn't be able to take it at this time." Pehry chuckles. He is like a dog waggling for her patting, "I didn't expect you to be willing to talk to me."

"Come on, don't say that. When wasn't I willing to?" Although Jasmine knows that he is joking, she doesn't like it, "It was inconvenient in the ward just now, so I got in the water room to call you back."

Hearing this, Pehry thinks of the narrow and dim space in the water room. He immediately frowns, "Why there?"

"Where else could I go?" At least not in the corridor, which is colder at night because of the convective winds.

"How about this? Transfer Uncle to the hospital where Karl is working. It has better environment and medical equipment. You and Auntie can also have an isolated room for sleep. And the rehabilitation is more efficient." Pehry says, wishing he could arrange it now.

Jasmine refuses immediately, "No, my families already feel that we owe you a lot. My mother won't accept it if my father is transferred to a private hospital."

Especially after knowing about Jasmine's relationship with Pehry, it is even more impossible for her mother to agree.
