Sweet Sorrow novel Chapter 220

Judy was discharged from the hospital after another week.

On the day when Judy was discharged from the hospital, Jacob wanted to pick up Judy, but was refused by Nicole. She was afraid that something bad would happen to her mother again when her mother saw Jacob. Although Jacob felt uncomfortable being rejected, he could understand.

Instead of coming, Jacob sent a car. The spacious and comfortable SUV was much better than the narrow taxi seat for the patient.

"Mom, be careful." Nicole carefully helped Judy get in the car and fastened the seat belt for her.

Then she sat down in the back seat with Jim.

After the car started, she turned on her phone and sent a message to thank Jacob.

Jacob didn't reply immediately. After waiting for a few minutes, Nicole thought that he must be busy, so she put the phone into her pocket and concentrated on taking care of her mother in the front passenger seat.

Because it was in the morning and it was not lunch time, there were few cars on the road and the road was smooth. After a while, the car arrived at the place and stopped downstairs.

Nicole helped Judy get off the car, and Jim ran to open the door. Judy got out of the car and said the first sentence after she was discharged from the hospital. She said to Nicole, "Nicole, We haven't paid the fare yet."

Hearing what Judy said, the driver quickly bowed and said, "Mr. Gu has already paid the fare. There is no need to give it again."

Nicole didn't expect the driver to be so straightforward. She looked at Judy quickly for fear of making her angry. But to her surprise, Judy didn't say anything. Just Her eyes changed and she turned around to go upstairs.

"Mom, slow down." Gritting her teeth, Nicole held her mother's arm.

Back home, Judy went to bed. Nicole stayed at the bedside for a while and planned to cook some dishes for Jim.

She looked at her mother's gaunt and sallow side face and sighed.

Just as she stood up, she suddenly heard her mother speak.

"Nicole."

Hearing that, Nicole was stunned. Then she looked at Judy and asked, "mom, are you awake?"

Judy kept silent. Nicole continued, "Mom, are you thirsty? Let me get you a cup of hot water." "Sit down." Mrs. Du stopped [暖暖], "sit down. I have something to tell you."

"Mom..." Nicole was frightened by Judy's serious expression. She was timid, but she could not disobey her mother. She had to sit on the edge of the bed and looked at her mother with fear. "Mom, tell me..."

She knew that what her mother was going to talk about. It must be something about Jacob.

Because she knew, she was more afraid.

She was afraid that her mother wouldn't agree.

Judy pressed her lips and asked, "I went to the hospital for an operation before. You told me that the money was borrowed from your classmate, right?"

"……" Nicole didn't expect that her mother would mention this matter at once. She lied to her mother, and it seemed that her mother had guessed it.

"Actually, the money was from Jacob, right?"

"…… Mom... "

"You said you found a job, but you went to Jacob's place, didn't you. The car that came to pick you up was sent by Jacob, right? Making video, watching TV, and so on... "
