Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 2155

The doctor emerged from the examination room and addressed Estelle, “The patient is fine; it's just a viral cold with an upper respiratory infection that caused the fever.”

Estelle breathed a sigh of relief, “Okay, thank you, doctor.”

Jonathan had made a call, and soon, the hospital had arranged a VIP room and the best caregiver for them.

Sophia hadn't eaten anything in the evening and, weakened by her illness, fell asleep as soon as the IV drip started.

The caregiver watched over Sophia inside, while Estelle and the others waited outside.

Jason said to Estelle, “You and Mr. Lamont should head back. I’ll stay here.”

He had thought it over. Seeing Sophia as his sister, there was nothing wrong with him taking care of her. If Robin was going to break up with Sophia over something so trivial, then he wasn’t worth her trust.

Robin's behavior today had been a huge letdown.

Estelle turned to Jonathan, “You go back. Jason and I will stay here.”

Jonathan offered a faint smile, “What’s the difference if two or three of us stay? Let’s all stay here tonight.”

Jason, his expression somber, spoke up, “I appreciate it, Mr. Lamont.”

“We’re family, no thanks needed,” Jonathan nodded.

They all waited until Sophia’s fever subsided with the IV and she seemed a bit more comfortable.

Estelle stepped out from the room and said to Jason, “I asked the caregiver to take a break. Go keep Sophia company.”

She knew what was on Jason's mind, and this seemed like the only moment when he could watch over her without restraint.

Jason paused for a moment before standing up, “Alright, I’ll stay with her. You and Mr. Lamont should get some rest.”

“Okay,” Estelle nodded.

As Jason entered the room, Estelle followed, quietly closing the door behind them.

Sophia lay on the hospital bed, sound asleep with a pale, yet fever-free face.

“Yes,” Estelle nodded.

“Jason and Sophia grew up together, and with Jason being such a catch, why would Sophia fall for someone like Robin?” Jonathan wondered.

“I heard from Harriet that Sophia and Robin met during a charity event organized by the student council. Robin, coming from a modest background, faced exclusion by some wealthy students. Yet he held his ground with dignity and grace. Unlike those rich kids who joined the event just to pad their resumes, he was genuinely committed and even spent his summer earnings on books for children in impoverished areas. All that really struck a chord with Sophia.”

“From then on, Sophia began to notice Robin, who, on his part, showed no interest in dating and focused solely on his studies. That just made him stand out even more to her.”

“Eventually, Robin went abroad to study and ended up becoming a role model for all the teachers and alumni. That just deepened Sophia's feelings for him.”

Jonathan nodded, “Young love can be like that, can’t it? A single flutter of the heart and you’re hooked.”

Estelle asked, “I didn't know about Robin before, and I don't understand him. You've met him a few times; what do you think of him?”

Jonathan summed it up succinctly,

“Opportunistic.”
