Filed To Story: Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband Book (Cora & Byron)
Jerry asked jokingly,
“Where is my godson?”
“He’s sleeping.”
Jerry went to Martin’s room in a familiar way, and after tucking the blanket for him, he grabbed Martin’s hand and kissed him. Then, he went back to Cora.
Seeing Cora sitting on the couch and reading a book about medicine, he complained,
“Aren’t you tired of reading these medical books my grandfather gave you every day?”
The old doctor in the small clinic was Jerry’s grandfather, John Lloyd.
Four years ago, when Cora fainted at the door of the small clinic, it happened that Jerry was there visiting his grandfather, so he sent her to the clinic.
Jerry was a player, the kind that everyone in Leucrest Town knew.
So when he rescued Cora, he had selfish motives.
In the end, John found out that Cora was pregnant, and he misunderstood Jerry.
“She’s pregnant. It’s fine if you mess around outside, but you even got someone pregnant!”
No matter how the two of them explained that they didn’t know each other, John wouldn’t believe them and even appointed Jerry to take care of Cora until Cora gave birth to the child.
Of course, the misunderstanding was later clarified.
John also thought that Cora had talent in medicine, so he took her in as his apprentice.
However, Jerry had been taking care of Cora and her son, and it seemed that it had become a habit for him to take care of them.
He even felt weird when he couldn’t see the two for too long.
In the middle of the night, his teeth were hurting, and he insisted on running over…
Jerry tried very hard to put his face in front of Cora, trying to gain some attention with his handsome face.
However, Cora didn’t even look at him, and her eyes fixed on the book.
“Live and learn. What’s wrong with that?”
“No wonder you were taken as an apprentice by my grandfather. You are a masochism.”
In the past, John wanted Jerry to be a doctor like him, but Jerry couldn’t sit still since he was a child.
Every time he was forced to read medical books, it was like torture to him.
In the end, John could only accept his fate and let Jerry do business with his father.
After Cora was sent to the clinic, she took the initiative to help out in the clinic for a while.
Before that, John hadn’t considered taking apprentices for a long time.
When he was seeing a patient that day, Cora, who was doing chores in the clinic, actually accurately stated the patient’s crux and the corresponding treatment methods.
John was stunned on the spot. After sending the patients away, he found out that when Cora was doing chores in the clinic, she used the medical books he put in the clinic every day as reading materials to pass the time.
Her memory was amazing, and she basically had a photographic memory.
No matter how in-depth the content of his test was, she could answer it fluently, making him surprised.
Later, he took Cora as his apprentice.
But strictly speaking, John was quite ashamed of calling himself Cora’s teacher.
Apart from giving Cora all the medical books he had collected all his life, and occasionally teaching her a few acupuncture techniques, Cora learned the rest of her knowledge by herself.
“I don’t feel like it is torture. I’m just learning more knowledge.”
Cora liked to read these medical books very much. Every time she devoted herself to memorizing these contents, all the sorrows seemed to be completely forgotten.
“Whatever. My teeth hurt so much.”
Probably because of the pain, Jerry’s face paled a lot.
“Have you eaten anything today?”
Cora finally gave him a little attention.
“Nope. I’m dying.”
Jerry sank into the couch, remaining motionless.
In the end, Cora went to make him a bowl of soup and put it in front of him.
“You have to pull out your decayed tooth. How about I help you make an appointment for tooth extraction?”
“No, lying on the operating table like a dead fish at the mercy of others? It’s too scary, okay?”
Jerry picked up the spoon and looked at the soup.
“Why didn’t you make me pasta? Or, you can fry some chicken nuggets that Martin usually eats for me.”
He had the taste of a child, so fried and sweet food were all his favorites.
“You have a toothache like this, and you still want to eat these things?”
Cora couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
He was still muttering,
“But this soup looks too plain. I really don’t have an appetite. Just make me two pieces of crabcake!”
While he was complaining, Cora was about to take away the soup.
“I’ll take it away if you don’t have an appetite.”
Jerry could only hold the bowl in a hurry.
“No. No. You cruel woman, you don’t know how to be gentle when treating a patient, do you?”
In the end, he accepted the soup honestly.
Cora planned to continue reading her medical book but suddenly thought of something.
“I’m going back to New York this weekend. At that time, I may have to trouble you to come and help me look after
Martin.”
“Why are you going back?”
Jerry frowned.
“Isn’t it time yet?”
He was talking about the anniversary of Byron’s death.
He didn’t know it before, but later he concluded that she would return to New York on that day every year, and her whole body exuded sadness.
“My brother is getting married, and the two families need to meet each other. I’m afraid that he will find
Martin’s existence if he comes over, so I can only go back.”
She was afraid that Gabe would be angry if he knew she didn’t abort the child, so she didn’t dare to mention Martin to him.
But she didn’t hide any of this from Jerry.
When Martin was born, it was also because of Jerry’s help that she was able to hide this matter from the world.
“Okay. I’ll help you look after Martin. However, Cora…”
“What?”
Cora didn’t hear Jerry finishing his sentence, and when she looked up, she saw him staring at her.
In his pupils, there was something unfathomable.
Cora frowned and wanted to say something.
But Jerry quickly made a sound, cutting off her chance to speak.
“Can you give me two pieces of fried chicken for the sake of my promise to take care of your child?”
Cora was speechless.
She patted the medical book on Jerry’s face, and she rejected his request directly.
Early this morning on the weekend, Cora took the earliest flight and arrived in New York.
The moment she walked out of the plain, those painful memories flooded back overwhelmingly.
She got off the plane with her bag, planning to go to the cemetery to visit Byron after finishing business with Gabe and the others.
But at this moment, when Cora was walking toward the exit gate, she suddenly found a figure so familiar that it made her shudder…
“Byron?”
Seeing the familiar height, familiar hand??ade custom??ade suit, familiar aura of aloofness and pride…
Cora felt her heartbeat speeding up in an instant. She hurriedly threw away the bag and chased after him.
“Byron!
“Byron!”
But she was wearing high heels, so she couldn’t run very fast.
The man seemed to be walking calmly, but Cora couldn’t catch up no matter how fast she walked.
The closer to the gate, the more people there.
“Excuse me.”
She continued to chase all the way, regardless of the crowd, just to see him again.
But the man walked in a hurry and never stopped for her.
Seeing that the distance was finally shortened a bit, she ran into a tour group.
Cora couldn’t stand still, twisted her ankle, and fell to the ground.
