Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband -
Chapter 504
Chapter 504 She Agreed!
Jerry hurried forward. "I'm here. What's his temperature now?"
Cora turned around and burst into tears upon seeing Jerry.
"104 degrees Fahrenheit. What should we do? Martin is in a daze.”
Seeing Martin looking weak and frail, Cora felt completely overwhelmed.
Cora blamed herself, feeling that she hadn't taken good care of Martin and letting him get a fever."It's alright. I'm here for you!"
Jerry gently embraced Cora, then took Martin in his arms.
"You go get some warm water and wipe Martin's neck and hands, and the temperature will go downquickly.”
Because Jerry had been helping Cora take care of Martin before, he had experience with thatsituation
Cora had been at a loss before, not knowing what to do.
Now, with Jerry's assistance, Cora finally had the opportunity to prepare warm water, and she beganwiping Martin with it.
Just like that, they took turns holding Martin throughout the night, wiping him with warm water.At dawn, Martin's temperature finally returned to normal, and Cora could finally breathe a sigh ofrelief. She then leaned on Jerry's shoulder and fell asleep.
When Cora woke up, she heard Jerry talking and Martin laughing.
"Martin, you can't get sick again. Do you know how scared your mom and I were when you gotsick?"
"Let's make a pinky promise, no more getting sick.”
Cora got up and realized that Jerry was still holding Martin and trying hard to maintain a posture forher to lean on.
As Cora got up, Jerry let out a gasp of pain.
"You should have woken me up."
Cora felt both distressed and a little angry. Jerry hadn't slept all night to take care of her and Martin.Since he had been maintaining the same position the whole time, he must be very tired.
"What's the point of waking you up? You just recovered from an illness and should rest more. I'mstrong, and I can handle it."
Cora's eyes welled up with tears as she looked at Jerry, who kept comforting her despite his tenseand pained shoulders.
"Jerry, is what you said before true?"
"What do you mean?" Jerry rubbed his shoulder and asked.
"About wanting to take care of us, me and Martin.”
Cora's voice was choked up.
Everyone had left Cora feeling disappointed throughout the day yesterday, from her ex-husband toher biological mother.
Only Jerry didn't show any aversion to the trouble and had taken care of the two of them all night.Cora suddenly felt that replaceing someone to rely on wouldn't be a bad idea.
But Jerry was momentarily lost, even doubting if he had misheard, and couldn't answer.
Thinking that he was having second thoughts, Cora said, "If you regret it, just forget I asked.”
It was too awkward, and Cora didn't know how to face Jerry next.
She was about to get up and run away.
But Jerry pulled her back onto the chair next to him and said, "I just feel that the surprise came toosuddenly, and I even doubted my own ears."
Then Jerry looked at Cora seriously and said, "I don't regret it. If you give me a chance, I will takegood care of you and Martin."
Hearing that, Cora smiled.
"Then let's give it a try."
Jerry looked at Cora earnestly and held her hand. "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Byron's villa...
Since leaving the Hansen Group yesterday, Byron had been waiting here for Cora to come to him.But Cora seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. Byron couldn't stand it and asked Carter toinvestigate if Cora had left New York again.
However, the answer did not align with Byron's expectations.
Carter said that Cora was still in New York.
Byron pondered if Cora really had a relative with mental illness and wanted to replace Johnson fortreatment.
So after smoking a few cigarettes, he called Johnson...
