Chapter 1719

Orval chuckled.

He swiftly changed the subject and continued diagnosing Jacob.

Man, this poor guy's heartbeat is all over the place...

After diagnosing, Orval, as always, was quite straightforward and gave Jacob the total of the standard medical fees, "The drugs are extra.' "Okay.

"I gotta take my wife and kids to the amusement park, so I'm gonna head out now.' Orval packed his stuff into his medicine box, and gave Jacob a few reminders, "Less worries, more peace of mind” Then, he added, "anyway, the past is in the past, so why bother thinking about it!"

Having said that, Orval picked up his medicine box and walked out.

Just as he reached the door, he bumped into Lenora, who hadn't been around for two days.

Orval had met Lenora before.

He immediately sidestepped in alert.

Lenora was speechless.

Was she some kind of devil?

"Mr. Carter, how is Jacob holding up? Is his condition okay?"

Graham Strand asked politely.

Orval adjusted his glasses, "His condition isn't great, but it's not so bad that it can't be treated. If he follows my prescription, he should be all good in about a year.' "Thank you so much!" Graham hurriedly said. Lenora seemed to want to speak, but a glare from Graham kept her quiet.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now.' Orval continued.

Graham quickly escorted him to the elevator.

As the elevator doors closed, Lenora finally voiced what she had been wanting to say, "He's the fourth generation of the Carter family, right? I heard that several powerful doctors from the Carter family came to the country to help the Scott family's daughter-in-law give birth. They didn't even call a powerful doctor for Jacob, instead they called a young kid!"

Lenora's tone was clearly discontented.

It's not like they couldn't afford them.

"Larkin is no different from the elders in the family. Weren't you the one who objected?" Jacob's voice came from not far away.

The couple immediately looked over.

"Oh my, you're up!" Lenora hurriedly ran over.

For the past few days, Jacob wouldn't let her visit him.

Lenora was miserable at home.

But now seeing Jacob looking much better, she felt much more relieved.

"You guys are just in time, I'm planning on being discharged and resting at home." Jacob said nonchalantly.

Upon hearing this, Lenora's face lit up, "Great, at home, I can take good care of you!"

"I'm not going home' Jacob said flatly, "I've hired a nurse, and there are servants at home.' Lenora's expression slowly froze.

"That's fine too.' Graham said with a loving expression, "Whatever makes you comfortable. Your mom and I won't hold you back anymore: Hearing this, Lenora quickly chimed in, "Yes, that's right!"

"I'm going to go downstairs to get some sun.' Jacob said, lowering his gaze, walked past his parents and into the elevator.

Lenora watched as the elevator doors closed.

Her feelings were incredibly complex.

In the past, Jacob had argued with her.

Even if he fought with her, their fights would only last three days at most, and then he would take the initiative to make up.

But it had been half a month this time, and he wasn't even looking at her anymore.

She admitted that she was wrong about the Erica situation, but she had already been punished. Wasn't that enough?

Was he really going to abandon her for another woman?

Jacob arrived downstairs, found a quiet place and sat down.

His phone started vibrating frequently.

He glanced at his phone.

Although it was an unfamiliar overseas number, Jacob knew who it was.
