The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1314

After the lady left, the other patients and hospital staff also went back minding their own businesses. Cassie and Jordan were left standing at the hallway. "I'm really sorry." Cassie finally broke the silence. "And thank you for helping me." She felt embarrassed about the scene earlier.

Looking at the beautiful woman's face with fascination, Jordan said in a slightly dull voice, "It's my pleasure. What a coincidence. I'm just discharged today. And you are not only my friend, but also my sister's best friend. So I think it's just right for me to help you."

"Jordan, I really don't know how I can repay you for what you did today. Thank you," Cassie said very solemnly and bowed her thanks.

Jordan felt amused, motioning with his hand to stop her. Pondering for a while, he said, "Well, if you really want to thank me, why not..."

"Why not?" Cassie repeated, feeling confused. When her eyes met Jordan's, her heart couldn't help beating faster.

Cassie always felt that Jordan's attitude towards her was a little unusual, but she could not figure out why.

"Why not invite me to dinner to show you're thankful?" Jordan finally said it. He was thinking of asking her out for a long time now, but he couldn't find the courage.

Cassie's heart beat faster at his suggestion, but soon she recovered. It was just a meal in order to thank him. It was very normal. 'What am I thinking?' she reminded herself.

So she nodded softly, "Okay, Jordan. When are you free? I'll treat you to dinner."

"Since we have the fate to meet today. How about tonight? I'll wait for you until your shift is done," Jordan quickly replied. 'That was smooth, ' he thought to himself.

Cassie felt a little unsure again. She said hesitantly, "But you have just been discharged from the hospital. Don't you need to go home and rest?"

"I've been all right for a long time. But Cora worried that I haven't completely recovered. So she asked me to stay in the hospital until today." He guaranteed her with a smile.

Hearing this, Cassie could only nod to agree with his invitation.

While getting off work, Cora greeted Cassie when she passed by her seat.

An idea suddenly crossed Cassie's mind at the sight of Cora. She decided to ask Cora, "Hey! There is someone inviting us to dinner. Would you like to go?"

Food had always been a magic word. Hearing there would be free food to eat, Cora became more energetic. She quickly held Cassie's hand and asked, "Which admirer of yours invited us to dinner?"

Cassie felt a strain in her heart with Cora's reaction. She said casually, "Not my admirer. I wanted to thank someone for helping me out. So I'm going to treat him to dinner."

"You want to thank someone for helping you?" she repeated, stressing on the word "someone." Cora suddenly felt something unusual and asked with a smile, "Who is this knight in shining armor? Do I know him?"

"You'll know when we get there. Hurry up. We're going to the restaurant now," Cassie answered nervously.

Cassie and Cora waited at the entrance of the hospital. Cora saw her brother's car parked there, but initially didn't mind it.

She couldn't help wondering, 'Didn't Jordan go through the discharge formalities and go home in the afternoon? Then why is he still here?'

Cora said to Cassie, "Wait for me. I'll just say hello to my brother."

She walked towards Jordan's car and knocked on the window.

Jordan felt a little shocked when he saw Cora. He opened his window halfway down and gave her an unnatural smile. "Hey, Cora? Why are you here?"
