The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1421

"You are welcome, Mrs. Lu. I was just acting on my duty. By the way, after you are discharged from the hospital, please keep in mind that you still needs to rest, and try not to strain yourself unnecessarily. You haven't fully recovered yet, so staying in bed would be a preferable choice. Above all, you must avoid mood swings. Otherwise your condition will get worse," the doctor advised.

Sheryl nodded before she replied, "Thanks, Doctor Liu. I'll keep that in mind and follow your advice."

"All right. All the best to you and your family. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll meet the next patient," said Doctor Liu.

"Right, of course. Thank you for everything!"

Doctor Liu bid them farewell and walked out of the room, followed by a group of nurses and doctors. However, one of the nurses stayed back. She smiled at Sheryl, "Mrs. Lu, I work in Doctor Liu's group. You can call me Lillian."

"Hi, Lillian. Do you have something you would like to say to me?" Sheryl asked. She didn't mean to sound rude. It was just that she had never seen this nurse before, even though she had been in the hospital for several days now.

"Mrs. Lu, do you have any confusion with what Doctor Liu has just told you?" Lillian asked abruptly.

Sheryl felt even confused by her question, because Doctor Liu had told her what to do just now. Why was she asking again? What was she trying to tell her?

However, out of politeness, Sheryl simply nodded and replied, "Yes, I'm very clear with that."

"By the way, there is one more thing that you need to know. You have a stomach trouble. Try to avoid eating anything cold as much as you can," Lillian smiled. "I know this from your medical records. I noticed that Doctor Liu forgot to tell you about that part, so I thought that I should inform you."

Sheryl felt deeply touched by Lillian's professionalism. Although she didn't know Sheryl, she did her best to help her patient recover better. Needless to say, Lillian made a good impression on her.

"Lillian, thanks for your advice. I really appreciate that," Sheryl smiled. As a matter of fact, Sheryl was well aware of her stomach trouble, but sometimes she would end up forgetting about it.

"One last thing, Mrs. Lu, you also have slight anemia. After you are discharged, you should eat more red meat. That should help a lot!"

"Thanks, I'll keep that in mind."

Lillian and Sheryl carried on like this for a little while, talking mostly about the do's and don'ts, which Sheryl had all noted down.

Sheryl couldn't help thinking what a good person Lillian was for going the extra mile. She was both beautiful and thoughtful. Most of all, she was very devoted to her job.

She reminded her of Cassie, who was also a nurse. They were so alike! Both of them were very kind and responsible. Sheryl was the one who introduced Nick to Cassie, and they ended up making a good couple. Unfortunately, she didn't have anyone suitable for Lillian right now. Otherwise she would be setting her up without hesitation.

After bidding farewell to Sheryl, Lillian left her room.

Since Sheryl had been resting for a while, she didn't feel like sleeping anymore. She got out of bed just as she decided to step out for some fresh air.

When she arrived at the garden, she heard muffled sounds of crying.

Judging by the timbre, she guessed it was a girl's voice. What happened?

Sheryl paused and tried to focus her attention to where the crying was coming from, when suddenly she heard a man's voice.

She couldn't hear them clearly, mostly due to the distance, but she assumed that it was just a harmless spat between a couple. It would be incredibly impolite and inappropriate of her to try and interfere in their affairs, but after having spent so long in the hospital being bored, she allowed her curiosity to cloud her judgments. She looked for a suitable place to hide and eavesdrop on the unsuspecting couple.

The sound of their voices echoed.

"Honey, you should know that you are the only one I love. I promise, my love for you will never change," the man said. It sounded like he was trying to comfort the weeping girl.
