Chapter 454 Did She Want to Go Back?

Jerry tried very hard to put his face in front of Cora, trying to gain some attention with hishandsome face.

However, Cora didn't even look at him, and her eyes fixed on the book. "Live and learn. What'swrong 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 accuratelystated 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 wasdoing chores in the clinic, she used the medical books he put in the clinic every day as readingmaterials 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 himsurprised.

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 teachingher 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 memorizingthese 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 toothextraction?”

"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 frysome 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 rollher eyes.

He was still muttering, "But this soup looks too plain. I really don't have an appetite. Just make metwo pieces of crabcake!"

While he was complaining, Cora was about to take away the soup. "I'll take it away if you don't havean appetite.”

Jerry could only hold the bowl in a hurry. "No. No. You cruel woman, you don't know how to begentle 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 goingback to New York this weekend. At that time, I may have to trouble you to come and help me lookafter 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 dayevery 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 willreplace 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 tomention 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 fromthe 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 staringat 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 offried 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.
