Reclaiming the CEO's Heart novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78 Nolan Was Speechless

The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became so tense that even the air seemed to condense.

Facing the imminent outbreak of war, Nolan quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Mr. Hill, it's good that Mrs. Hill is fine. Everyone is happy."

Jacob looked away from Avery as if he didn't want to waste more time on her. Then, he expressionlessly turned around and said, "I hope you know what you get yourself into."

Avery tried to fight back her anger but failed. Looking at the arrogant man who always thought he was right, she slammed the porridge at him and said, "F*ck you!"

It was he who had pursued and proposed to her. He had been so possessive that she could only up everything. He had ruined her life but still had the nerve to blame her for pretending to be ill.

The liquid flowed down his high-end suit after the white porridge hit Jacob on the back. He coldly looked at her with anger in his eyes. Seeing him quickly walk toward Avery, Nolan knew the fuse of the bomb was lit. It would explode!

So, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him and anxiously said, "Mr. Hill, Mrs. Hill's hands must be slippery. Mrs. Hill, please say something!"

Avery kept her head high and coldly said, "Yes, my hands were slippery."

Nolan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mr. Hill, did you hear it? Mrs. Hill..."

Avery boldly interrupted before he could finish speaking, "If my hands had not been slippery, I would have hit you on the head and killed you, you jerk!"

Nolan was speechless, thinking she was adding fuel to the fire.

Jacob pushed him away, strode up to Avery, and said through gritted teeth, "How dare you!"

Avery was so angry that she suddenly picked up a bottle of medicine from the dressing basket on the bedside table, threw back the blanket, and jumped out of bed. She then raised her hand and smashed the bottle at Jacob's head like a fierce warrior, saying, "Scumbag, I will kill you!"

But Jacob firmly believed Avery was playing hard to get, so he would not listen to John's words.

Nolan asked a nurse to clean up the mess in the ward. Then, he flattened the bed and patiently comforted Avery, saying, "Mrs. Hill, you should have communicated with Mr. Hill with a better attitude. There is no need to be so extreme. He cares about you. He waited outside for an entire night. You..."

Avery didn't want to hear such words at all. So, she asked, "Dr. Blake, is there an error in the medical examination report?"

He immediately became serious and said, "You can insult my personality but not my professionalism. The people who examined you are all experts. They must not have made mistakes."

Then, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "I was shocked when I found out your white blood cell count was so low last night. I thought it was... By the way, you haven't had any treatment recently, right?"

He asked this question out of a doctor's responsibility.
