Chapter 1871
“Well, we’ll be off now, Jim.”
A pained expression flashed across Christopher’s face when he saw the look on Jim’s face.
He did not intend to stay any longer, so he turned and left hurriedly with Bonnie.
Jim remained motionless as he stared at Christopher and Bonnie’s retreating figures.
For some reason, he could not help but think something strange was going on between these two.
Bonnie seemed desperate to maintain a distance between them, whereas Christopher kept trying to
make Bonnie lean against him.
Jim stared at them until, eventually, they disappeared from sight.
“Jim!” Suddenly, Charlotte, who had finished her appointment with the doctor, sprinted into the garden.”
What are you doing here? I’ve been looking for you all over the place! Why didn’t you pick up your
phone?”
Jim finally snapped out of his stupor and glanced at his phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere were three missed calls, all from Charlotte.
She had called him at the exact moment Christopher and Bonnie left, but for some reason, he had not
heard a thing
Jim shoved the paper Bonnie had given him into his pocket, then smiled at Charlotte as she made her
way over to him. “The hospital was too packed, so I came out here for some fresh air.”
Charlotte leaped into his arms, smiling, and gently rocked his arm as she said, “Don’t you dare go
missing on me again in the future.
“I couldn’t find you just now, and I was in such a panic that I thought you had run off with another
woman!”
Jim curled his lips into a smile and playfully knocked on Charlotte’s forehead. “What on earth is going
on i In this brain of yours?”
With that, he put his arm around her and was about to leave when a woman’s scream echoed from
nearby. “Help! There’s a pervert!”
Jim froze in his steps and glanced in the direction of the woman’s voice.
The man who had been with Bonnie just a few minutes earlier had been seized by a woman screaming
her lungs out.
A few security guards arrived at the scene.
“You again! How dare you come here every day to tease these random women!”
“Get out!”
“I’m calling the police right now!”
Jim frowned as he watched the man being beaten up by the security guards and suddenly recalled the
conversation between Bonnie and the man.
He narrowed his eyes.
Could he have…misunderstood the situation?
“What’s wrong, Jim?” Charlotte asked, frowning when she saw him stop.
“Nothing.” Jim let out an exhale, put his arm back around Charlotte, and strode away.
Even if he had misunderstood Bonnie for what happened, it did not change the fact that she had tried
to

He could not possibly have misinterpreted her intentions for that, could he?
After coming out of the hospital, Christopher wanted to hail a taxi to bring Bonnie back to Tea Cottage.
but she refused.
She wanted to go to a nearby shopping mall to buy a new phone.
Christopher frowned, glancing at her pale face. “Bonnie, the most important thing you should be doing
right now is getting some rest!
“Why do you need a phone? Will not having a phone interfere with your rest?”
Bonnie narrowed her eyes and replied, “I want to call Luna and Gwen and ask them to help me find a
nurse to take care of me.”
Christopher’s frown grew even deeper when he heard this. “Why do you need a nurse?”
He patted his chest confidently and said, “Bonnie, I grew up in a family of doctors, and I have been a
skilled one since young, so much so that I was even capable of producing the antidote for the poison
that Mrs. Landry had suffered from!
“I’m even more of an expert than any nurse you can find, so why do you even need one?” Sitting in a
chair by the sidewalk, Bonnie closed her eyes and let out a bitter chuckle.
