Chapter 565
He looked just like a completely normal guy to her. He seemed healthy, and he was very smart. In fact, he was renowned as one of the hottest guys on campus!
Roger never talked to anyone about his illness precisely because he hated this look people would give him.
“I guess you’ll finally stop pestering me now that you know I’m ill,” he said irritably.
“What?” Riley was stupefied. She simply couldn’t find any sense in his words. “Why would I stop pursuing you after I find out you’re sick?”
“I’m starting to wonder if it’s me or you who’s ill here!” snapped Roger. “I’m not a normal healthy man! There must be something wrong with your head if you’re going to
pursue someone like me!”
“Don’t ever say that!” Riley snapped, the stress in her voice clearly audible. “I like you in your entirety! What does it have to do with you being sick?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“You…” Roger was speechless for a while, but then he looked away and added, “Whatever. It’s none of my business anyway.”
Stella laughed as she saw that his ears had turned red, but she said nothing.
“It’s getting late,” she reminded Roger. “Let’s hurry up and get to
the hospital, okay?”
“What?” Roger sprang up to his feet. “Are we still going? I told you, Sis, I’m fine!”
“That’s not for you to say,” she argued. “It’s for the doctor to
say.”
“But the doctor did say that! I really did go to the hospital last night! Just ask Riley if you don’t believe me!”
Roger glanced at Riley so she would back him up, but Riley hesitated, not knowing how to react. Although they really did go to the hospital together last night, she didn’t hear
the doctor saying that he was fine.
Stella immediately understood what was going on when she saw Riley’s reaction,
“Have you forgotten what I told you last night?” she yelled, scowling at Roger. “No matter what happens, never take your health lightly!”
“But, Sis…”
“If you’re not coming to the hospital with me, then don’t ever call me your sister again!”
She called for the waiter and paid the bills, then stormed out of the cafe without even looking back.
Roger quietly watched her leave, uncertain of what to do.
“Why are you so reluctant to go to the hospital with your sister?” Riley couldn’t help but ask.
“I just don’t want her to worry too much,” he replied, his head hanging low as he stared at the half-empty cup of coffee. “Every time the doctor says there’s something wrong,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe’d overreact and worry herself sick. I just don’t want to see her like that…”
Apparently, it made him feel like he was a burden to her.
Riley didn’t know how close the two siblings were, so she just sighed. “It’s totally normal for Sis to worry about you since you’ve got a condition. Why don’t you just go with her
and put her at ease?”
“Don’t call her Sis!” he glared at her. “She’s my sister, not yours!”
He then turned on his heels and left the cafe. Riley scampered
after him, trying to keep up.
“Wait for me, Robb!”
Now that Stella and Roger had changed their identities, all their old medical records had also been wiped out. But even without previous records, the doctor’s comprehensive
understanding of Roger’s condition remained unchanged.
“You again?” the doctor asked, squinting at Roger. “Weren’t you here yesterday? What are you doing here today? Are you feeling unwell?”
“Doctor,” Stella began in a serious tone, “I’d like to consult your expert opinion. My brother had a major operation before. Will he really be fine after drinking so much last
night?”
