Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk-Chapter 927: I Want to Eat Hazelnut Cake
This matter was handed over to Liya by Jasper Sinclair. Louis Hayes was busy at the research institute and couldn’t spare any extra energy.
Nora Northwood was pushed out by the medical staff, half an hour later.
Her condition was still extremely weak.
Jasper Sinclair almost rushed up as soon as Uncle Kevin reacted, leaving only a shadow in front of him.
"How is the patient’s condition?"
He asked anxiously.
The medical staff spoke through a mask, muffling the sound, "The patient was frightened, but her body and the baby inside her were not affected. She will be transferred to a general ward later and will be observed in the hospital for a day."
"Thank you, doctor."
Uncle Kevin handled the inpatient procedures, and Nora Northwood moved into a suite in the inpatient department.
Regarding this accident, Jasper Sinclair was more nervous than those involved.
"Jasper, I’m fine."
"I’ll arrange for a female housekeeper."
"Okay."
Nora Northwood did not refuse. She was more aware than anyone of her deteriorating physical condition.
The three-month deadline was approaching quickly.
Suddenly, a hint of sadness arose in her heart. To cover her sadness, she changed the subject: "I want to eat hazelnut cake."
"I’ll have the chef at home send it over."
"It takes a long time to make a cake. Can you check the nearby cake shops, is that okay?"
Jasper Sinclair hesitated for a moment and, seeing her finally make a request, agreed.
Before leaving the ward, the man repeatedly instructed the nurse to ensure the patient’s safety.
The nurse temporarily assigned to this ward couldn’t fathom their background or whereabouts but could guess from their attire that they were from affluent families.
The nurse wanted to chat a few homely words to get closer but saw Nora Northwood looking pained, seemingly enduring something.
She immediately asked, "Is there anywhere you’re feeling uncomfortable?"
"My waist is very sore, is there a hot water bottle or a cushion? I need something to prop it up."
"Yes, please wait a moment."
The nurse dialed the internal phone line, and soon enough, a rechargeable hot water bottle and cushion combination was delivered to the ward.
With the nurse’s help, Nora Northwood’s back had support.
This time, she felt much more comfortable.
Before long, Jasper Sinclair returned to the ward with a box containing a cake.
"Nora, here’s the hazelnut cake you like, and here’s a bottle of baked milk. I asked the doctor, pregnant women can drink it, try it."
Nora Northwood’s eyes were a bit brighter than before.
Jasper Sinclair cut the hazelnut cake for her and brought it to her mouth.
Nora Northwood hesitated for a while, then opened her mouth, enjoying the feeling of having things done for her.
She happily said, "Exploding with calories tonight, I will definitely gain weight tomorrow!"
Other pregnant women usually have an increased appetite and weight with the baby’s growth.
Yet, she was the opposite.
The appearance of sweets turned the atmosphere in the ward, making it less bitter than imagined.
Out of the six-inch cake, Nora Northwood ate a third.
She joked to herself, "I fell and somehow brought back my appetite, so it’s a blessing in disguise."
"Don’t say silly things."
While cleaning up the residue, Jasper Sinclair’s phone vibrated.
He suspected it was a reply from Liya.
The nurse saw him pull out his phone and quickly stepped forward to finish the rest of the chores.
Liya sent Jasper Sinclair a video, a clip from the surveillance footage.
There weren’t many employees going in and out of the first-floor restroom, and at the fourteenth second of the video, Jasper Sinclair captured Rachel Woodward’s face.
