Lost Me, Gained Regret (Jane and Bryant Ferguson) novel Chapter 755

Mr. Johnson had reached that age where nothing much could ruffle his feathers. What he said came out bluntly, without a hint of embarrassment.

Besides, he was a doctor; it wasn't in his nature to keep things under wraps.

“You’ve been burning the candle at both ends, need some time off to recharge your batteries,” he advised.

“And Mr. Smith, don't think you can keep pushing yourself just because you’re fit as a fiddle. Take a breather.”

It was all adult talk, nothing to misunderstand here.

Mr. Johnson spoke with such nonchalance, yet Dailey felt a wave of embarrassment wash over him.

Discussing such matters openly did carry a tinge of shame.

“Ahem, noted,” he cleared his throat, adding, “Thanks, Mr. Johnson.”

Mr. Johnson got up, picking up his little cushion, “No other issues. Just watch out for allergies, and since you’ve had a bit of a scare with that swimming incident, your lungs are still recovering. Stick to easy-going meals, rest up.”

Christine and Dailey saw Mr. Johnson to his car.

Jane and Gregory trailed behind.

After bidding Mr. Johnson farewell, Christine suggested to Jane, “No time like the present for a meal, right?”

Bella and Raleigh had already taken the kids back to Elmwood Villas.

Mainly to keep the kids from catching anything at the hospital.

Plus, for Bella, waiting there wasn't any different from waiting at home.

Jane texted her an update, then linked arms with Christine as they got into the car.

This time, Dailey was driving.

Before getting in, however, Gregory couldn't resist a jab, “I know you’ve just started enjoying the finer things in life, but consider the lady's health too.”

Dailey ignored him, bending to get into the car.
