Chapter 227
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 227<\/p>\n
Just as the car left the Hilton\u2019s, Kathy received a call from Billy\u2014Jennifer fainted from illness.<\/p>\n
Kathy immediately asked the driver to turn around. However, noticing that her mother seemed to be exhausted, she requested him to send her mother back first.<\/p>\n
\u201cKathy, be there for her,\u201d Angela advised.<\/p>\n
Kathy did not think too much but nodded hard.<\/p>\n
Angela looked at her daughter\u2019s figure, tears streaming down her eyes. Was this the right thing to do?<\/p>\n
\u2026<\/p>\n
Jennifer was quickly taken to the hospital. Only then did Kathy know that Jennifer had been suffering from severe heart failure.<\/p>\n
Not long ago, Jennifer had been diagnosed with this disease when she had had a car accident. Although the illness had been contained, it had been hitting her more and more often.<\/p>\n
Kathy looked at the red light in the emergency room, unable to hide the worry on her face.<\/p>\n
Billy stood at the end of the corridor, looking cold, cigarette butts piling up at his feet.<\/p>\n
After a while, he walked over and said, \u201cIt\u2019s too late. Go back and rest.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy frowned and shook her head.<\/p>\n
Not only because Angela had advised her to stay, but she was worried about Jennifer.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re not a Hilton. Why do you concern yourself about this?\u201d Billy didn\u2019t sound friendly.<\/p>\n
This wasn\u2019t the first time that Jennifer had such an episode, but it was worse.<\/p>\n
Thinking of his mother\u2019s abnormal behavior recently, Billy was irritated.<\/p>\n
\u201cFurthermore, haven\u2019t you refused to be my mother\u2019s goddaughter?\u201d Billy said mockingly.<\/p>\n
In his opinion, Kathy shouldn\u2019t be here pretending to care about Jennifer.<\/p>\n
\u201cI will leave when she is out of danger.\u201d Kathy did not want to argue with him.<\/p>\n
She could understand how he was feeling. After all, it was his mother.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, she was worried.<\/p>\n
Billy squinted, staring at her, his gaze softening.<\/p>\n
Only nicotine could calm him down.<\/p>\n
Suddenly, Kathy\u2019s phone rang. It was Joseph.<\/p>\n
She remembered that she hadn\u2019t told him about being in the hospital.<\/p>\n
Answering the phone, she heard Joseph\u2019s familiar voice, \u201cStill at the Hilton\u2019s?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMrs. Hilton had a heart attack. I\u2019m in the hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWait for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
After she hung up, the lights in the emergency room went out and Kathy quickly walked over.<\/p>\n
The doctor took off his mask and said in a low voice, \u201cThe patient is out of danger, but she still needs some time to wake up.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you, doctor.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jennifer was transferred to an ordinary ward. Kathy wanted to enter, but Billy stopped her.<\/p>\n
\u201cIsn\u2019t Joseph coming to get you? You can go.\u201d He looked gloomy.<\/p>\n
Kathy lowered her eyes, looked through the window at Jennifer\u2019s sleeping countenance, and slowly turned around.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf anything happens to her, please let me know immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay,\u201d Billy replied indifferently.<\/p>\n
Joseph had arrived long ago. Walking out of the hospital, Kathy quietly got into his car, still worried about Jennifer.<\/p>\n
Joseph grasped her hand and frowned. \u201cAren\u2019t you too concerned about the Hiltons?\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy remained silent.<\/p>\n
She could not understand this feeling, either.<\/p>\n
Moreover, she wanted to continue her studies, so a child could cause her trouble.<\/p>\n
Most importantly\u2026, the idea of their marriage being a \u201cfake\u201d one stuck in her mind.<\/p>\n
Evening called for getting off work, but Joseph was going to attend a business dinner, so Kathy planned to visit Jennifer.<\/p>\n
Arriving at the hospital, she didn\u2019t see Billy. The nurse was giving Jennifer a drip.<\/p>\n
Seeing Kathy, Jennifer waved at her.<\/p>\n
\u201cChild, you must be worried,\u201d Jennifer said gently.<\/p>\n
\u201cMrs. Hilton, how are you feeling today?\u201d Kathy smiled.<\/p>\n
\u201cMuch better. The doctor changed the medicine. This illness needs time to go away.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou will definitely get better.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI am an old woman now, and there is always something wrong with my heart. Frankly, I am seeing things more clearly these days.\u201d Jennifer smiled faintly.<\/p>\n
At the very least, she wasn\u2019t as anxious and scared as the other patients.<\/p>\n
Kathy, however, was not at ease. She picked up the medical record book on the side and started to read. She was a medical student, so she knew about some pathologies.<\/p>\n
Jennifer was suffering from chronic heart failure. She wasn\u2019t in a bad condition, but she needed medicine, and she couldn\u2019t get too emotional.<\/p>\n
\u201cMrs. Hilton, I want to see what the doctor has prescribed for you.\u201d Kathy frowned.<\/p>\n
She opened the drawer beside her and took some pills, intending to ask Joseph about them when she got back.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat\u2019s the matter?\u201d Jennifer looked at her with confusion.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think there is something wrong with your condition this time, and it may be the medicine. Although the doctor has changed it, I would like to consult my husband, who is a professor of neurology and has done some research in this field. Just to be sure,\u201d Kathy said.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are right. I\u2019ve heard of Joseph, but I\u2019ve been coming to this hospital for several years, so there shouldn\u2019t be much of a problem.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jennifer frowned, not looking happy when she heard the name Joseph.<\/p>\n
But Kathy did not notice her change of mood. Leaving the hospital, Kathy called Joseph.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-893","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/893","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=893"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
