Reclaiming the CEO's Heart novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87 Whispers of Love and Choices

Jacob thought John had brought clothes for him, so he walked out directly, but when he turned around, he saw Nicholas.

He raised an eyebrow unconsciously towards Avery. "We have a guest?"

Avery was in her pajamas while Jacob was wrapped in a bath towel. It looked like a completely normal interaction between a husband and wife.

In this suspicious situation, Nicholas was not a fool. He put down the New Year gifts and left in a daze.

Avery didn't explain. The deeper Nicholas got involved, the more dangerous it would be. This ending would be better for both herself and him.

Jacob looked at the New Year gifts with a cold eye. "Am I not generous enough?"

He had paid a 200-hundred-million-dollar breakup fee, which was an astronomical figure.

Avery replied, "I'll give them to the old man who collects garbage later."

Jacob snorted coldly. "Does he come here often?"

"He came when I had a cold."

"There won't be a next time." His tone was decisive and stern.

Avery hesitated for a moment before obediently saying, "Got it."

As Jacob finished packing and left, she couldn't help but ask, "About Leon..."

"Sorry, Dad. I don't want to go abroad for now."

"This is such a great opportunity. I practically fought for it with all my might. There are only three slots available nationwide."

Nicholas raised a sarcastic smile. "This opportunity must be from Jacob, right?"

Avery had finally managed to escape from that terrible period in her life. Her life was finally on the right track, and the next morning, she went to the hospital to visit Martin.

The caregiver was wiping his face, and Avery took the cloth from her. "I'll do it."

The caregiver didn't object, and Avery saw two bouquets of sword lilies by Martin's bedside.

"Has someone been here?"

"Yes, Dr. Lewis came to visit Mr. Adams yesterday. I happened to overhear him instructing Mr. Adams's attending physician while I was cleaning the room. Dr. Lin said he's going abroad for further studies, and we won't be seeing him for a long time."

Avery twisted the wet cloth in her hand and knew exactly why.

"I see."

The caregiver couldn't read her expression and continued, "Dr. Lewis is a good person."

"I know."

"If Ms. Adams wants to start a family, I think he..."
