Chapter 418 Dr. Andrews set a strict deadline.

Chapter 418 Gratefully, I began, "Dr. Andrews, thank you so much for looking after my grandma during this period. We really appreciate it!" "No need to thank me." Dr. Andrews pointed to Bryant, saying, "Thank him. This guy has been pesteringfor nearly two months. I hadn't planned on coming back to the States anytsoon, but my wife finally gave in to his persistence and convincedto ctake a look." Hearing this, I looked at Bryant in surprise.

Two months.

That meant even before I had returned to RiverCity, when he might have thought I was as good as dead, he never gave up on my grandma's condition.

I said, "Bryant, for this... I really owe you one." "Want to really thank me? How about treatingto dinner?" "Huh?" I was taken aback, not expecting such a request from him.

Then, turning to Dr. Andrews, I smiled warmly, "Sure, a dinner for you and Dr. Andrews it is, to try sof Vista Town's local dishes." Gregory had takento a private restaurant two years ago, and the food was excellent.

But then, Dr. Andrews waved it off, "No, no, I've got old friends to catch up with now that I'm back in town! I have plans tonight." He tapped his assistant, chuckling, "He's coming with me. Ms. Webster, you treat Mr. Ferguson alone. After all, he's the real hero here. I'm just doing my job." After laying out the plans for taking over Ramona's treatment tomorrow, Dr. Andrews left with his assistant.

na Bryant eyed me, "Getting cold feet about that dinner?" "Not at all.” I owed him that much, so I said candidly, "It's just dinner, I'm not that petty." "In that case, can I pick the restaurant?" "Sure." I agreed readily.

After all, it was a thank-you dinner, so naturally, he got to choose.

As he selected the restaurant, I helped Ramona into her room, "Grandma, I'm going out to treat someone to dinner for helping us find a reliable doctor. I'll csee you again tomorrow, okay?" "Alright, alright." Ramona agreed cheerfully, then whispered a reminder, "But remember, Greg is your fiancé!" "Okay, I remember." Fate had a twisted sense of humor.

Had I not gone missing, my life these past twenty years would have been completely different.

Bryant chose a riverside restaurant.

The ambiance and atmosphere were top-notch.

The only downside was when the waiter, all smiles, asked, "Will it be à la carte or a set menu for you? It's Valentine's Day today, and we have three special couples' menus. Would you like to take a look?" I instinctively refused, "A la carte..." "Let's have a look." Bryant cutoff, completely at ease.

I frowned, "Bryant, I..." "It's just dinner; it doesn't matter if it's a set menu or not, Jane, relax." I was at a loss for words.

Then, he told the waiter, "We'll take the Valentine's Day Set C." The waiter confirmed, "So, one Valentine's Day Set C, coming right up. This set comes with a pair of couple's dolls, would you like them now?" Just as he was speaking, I felt a strange gaze upon me.

Turning instinctively, I locked eyes with Edith.

The gentleman pulling out her chair was planting a kiss on her cheek, oblivious to anything else, as she looked confusedly at me.

I was about to go over and say hello when she looked away.

Bryant managed to grab my attention. “Jane, anything else you'd like to add in?" "Nothing more." 1 sat back down.

Edith withdrew her gaze, inwardly cringing for her foolish brother.

The enemy was at their gates, and he was still playing hard to get.

Thinking this, Edith raised an eyebrow, pretended to take a selfie, but included the other table in the shot.

She opened Whatand sent a message.

[At a couples' restaurant] [Got the couples' menu too~] That said it all.

I focused on my meal when my phone suddenly buzzed.

A friend request.

[Ms. Webster, I'm Gregory's cousin, Edith] glanced towards where Edith was sitting and accepted.

At another table, Edith hadn't even Saree side but touched her phone on the side, but my 'Edith' had already sent two messages. [Ms. Webster, Greg's leg is acting up again, really bad. Could you possibly cover?] [Location attached]

After reading the messages, while still looking in Edith's direction m deliberately replied, [Not really convenient today] Edith was cutting her steak, never touching her phone, yet my phone buzzed again.

[Then... no worries, let him suffer. He's been in pain so long, he's probably used to it by now.] [Ms. Webster, go ahead with your plans.] [Don't mind him, his dad doesn't care, and neither does his mom.] Three messages in a row.

I couldn't help but smile, [I'm on my way now.] I turned to Bryant, apologizing with a smile, "We're almost done, right?” Bryant looked up, "Something cup?" "Yes." "What is it?"

I tucked my phone into my purse, straige egory'sdegis hurting. Wneed to go see him." Ads by Pubfuture
