My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey) novel Chapter 106

"Mrs. Harper, although you're no longer in danger, you'd better stay in the hospital for a few more days and observe. You don't have to worry about the hospitalization expenses..." It was Grant's voice.

"Mr. Fletcher, you've misunderstood me. I'm not worried about the hospitalization fees. It's just that my body has already recovered a lot. There's no need to continue wasting resources in the hospital."

Jessica's ward door was ajar. As soon as Audrey reached the door, she heard Jessica's voice coming from inside.

Her voice sounded a little crisper than when she was first hospitalized. 'She should be recovering well,' Audrey thought.

Audrey knocked on the door and pushed it open.

Jessica was still talking to Grant, but her eyes lit up when she saw Audrey enter.

She said, "Audrey, why brings you here?"

Seeing her smile, Audrey's tense nerves also relaxed. She smiled and said, "I'm here to see you. Why are you in such a hurry to be discharged? It's safer to stay in the hospital for two more days."

"No, I feel much better now. I can take care of the rest at home," Jessica said firmly.

"We didn't tell your brother when we came to see a doctor this time. He went to another city to deliver goods last week. He'll be back today. I don't want him to know that I'm hospitalized. Otherwise, he'll blame himself," said Jessica.

Since she had almost recovered, she would not let her son know, lest he feel guilty.

Audrey could understand her thoughts, but she was still a little worried. She asked Grant, "Mr. Fletcher, is my mother's current condition suitable for discharge?"

Jessica felt a lump in her throat and tears welled up in her eyes when she heard Audrey call her "Mother" in front of the hospital director.

Grant said dutifully, "Mrs. Harper's recovery is not bad. She can rest at home, but remember to recuperate and take the medicine."

Hearing this, Audrey finally felt relieved.

She told Jessica, "Since you don't want to stay in the hospital, you can go home and recuperate. I happened to drive here. I can send you back."

Upon hearing this, Jessica felt gratified, and her heart ached a little for Audrey. "You've been working all day. Yet you rushed over. Isn't it too tiring?"

Audrey smiled at her. "No, I'm not that tired from work."

Jessica kept looking at Audrey. She held her hand and rubbed it gently. A hint of guilt flashed across her eyes.

She said softly, "Audrey, we've all seen the video on the trending topics in the headlines. We've let you down..."

At the mention of this, Jessica felt a little guilty. She blamed herself for not teaching Eliza well all these years, causing her to hurt Audrey so much.

Audrey gently patted Jessica's hand and comforted her. "She did something wrong herself. You don't have to feel sorry for that."

Seeing how sensible Audrey was, Jessica's heart ached for her even more.

She said, "Audrey. There's another reason why I want to be discharged hastily."
