Chapter 958
She hastily refused, "No! There's a smell of disinfectant in the hospital, and the wards are so compacted! It's like being in prison. It's just an upset stomach, not a serious illness. I would rather recuperate at home..."
Because she covered her mouth, her utterance was intermittent.
She pointed to her purse on the car's back seat and said, "There are medicines in my purse. Get one for me."
The caring nurse helped her to pack the medicines into individual bags according to the amount she needed to take, so Catelyn just had to take one bag at a time.
"Wait here for a while." Cedrick squeezed her fingers, looked out the window, immediately got out of the car, and went to a 24-hour convenience store opposite.
Catelyn saw that he was talking with the female shop assistant, and the female shop assistant's eyes were glowing when she looked at him.
Soon, when Cedrick came out again, he was holding a cup of hot water in his hand.
Catelyn's nausea eased a little after having a quick rest. She leaned on the car window with one hand, feeling extremely depressed.
"Oh, this damned gastric..."
If she had known that eating persimmons could make her so sick, she would not have been greedy for her chilled persimmons.
That feeling was way worse than food poisoning.
Cedrick came back with a water glass and was about to get her medicine when his cell phone rang, but he did not even look at it. He took a pill in front of her mouth, coaxing her to open her mouth like coaxing a child.
It was very strange to say that every time Catelyn felt uncomfortable in her stomach, she could immediately relieve it by taking some medicine.
Yet medicine would only ease the pain but not cure the disease.
Catelyn swallowed the pill, leaned on the cushion, and fell asleep for a while.
When she opened her eyes, she found that Cedrick was looking her up and down suspiciously, which made Catelyn widen her eyes, touch her cheeks in horror, and said anxiously, "What's wrong? Is it because I haven't taken care of myself very much lately, and I've become ugly?"
Cedrick found the timing of Catelyn's stomachache a bit odd.
When Ollie was a child, he often had stomach upsets. One of the reasons was that he was born prematurely, and the other was that his taste was very bland that a slightly stimulating food would cause him a stomachache
He had seen the little guy vomit when he was sick, but he never vomited as Catelyn did...
Seeing him staring at her all the time, Catelyn felt even more uncomfortable. She thought she must have become ugly. When she woke up in the morning and looked in the mirror, she found that several pimples had burst out on her face.
When she wanted to say something, Cedrick suddenly raised her chin, pushed her onto the cushion, leaned over, and kissed her lips.
His wide palm was sliding on her waist...
