Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1443

Cornelia, [Dr. Lester, I owe you one!]

Dr. Lester, [We're pals, no need for thanks.]

Cornelia, [I'm thinking of whipping up some grub tonight. Fancy joining me for dinner?]

Dr. Lester, [I don't plan on being a third wheel.]

Ever since Cornelia and Jeremy patched things up, Jeremy's health hadn't been kept under wraps from her. So, she and Dr. Lester often needed to talk about Jeremy's condition. Whatever medical tests Jeremy needed, Dr. Lester always gave Cornelia the heads up. It was more efficient than dealing directly with Jeremy.

Dr. Lester, [Marc needs a full-body check-up tomorrow afternoon. This check-up is critical. You gotta be there with him.]

Cornelia, [What kind of check-up?]

Dr. Lester, [I'll fill you in on the details tomorrow. For now, just know that this check-up is super important. You absolutely can't miss it.]

Cornelia, [Alright.]

She sensed some unease in Dr. Lester's words but didn't press him further. No matter how tough the road ahead, she was sticking with Jeremy.

After sending the message, she pocketed her phone. Looking up, she saw that Jeremy was wearing a sour expression. Cornelia smiled at him. "What's up?"

Jeremy, "You've been ignoring me for five minutes. Five whole minutes."

Cornelia was amused by his petulance, and it instantly lifted her spirits, "I'm sorry, honey. Can you forgive me?"

Jeremy, "Well, since you apologized right away, I guess I can let it slide."

Cornelia again draped her arm over his left, even though he still couldn't feel it. But she believed he could feel her presence. "It's still early. Let's hit the supermarket. I'm thinking of making dinner tonight."
