Chapter 269
“Would my sister-in–law get jealous of me? Just because I give you a hug, she’ll get mad?” Briana was
getting more and more curious about her unseen sister in law. “Brs, when will officially meet her?”
Marcus looked towards Comelia in the sunmom. “Soon”
“When is soon?” Briana wanted to keep asking but didn’t know how to phrase it “What do you think I
should do to make Cornelia stay?”
Marcus responded, “Do you really need me to teach you how to make someone stick around?”
Bilans pouted, “It’s fine if you don’t tell me how to make Comelia stay I just follow her”
Before she could finish, Marcus interrupted her, “Come with me to the study on the third floor”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBriana asked, “What for? Im not interested in your complex, hard to understand books”
Marcus replied. “Just follow me!
Reluctantly Briana did
On Comelia’s side, Justin didn’t ask her many questions. He just chatted with her while they drank
coffee, about work, friends, even celebrities. But he never brought up the car accident.
Finally Comelia couldn’t bear it anymore and asked him, “Doctor, don’t you want to ask me about the
accident?”
Justin chuckled. “If you open up to me, it means you’ve come to terms with it. As long as you stay
positive, with a successful career and stable relationships, you’ll soon move on from your past
Comelia bit her lip and smiled. “You’re that confident I can move on? Aren’t you worried everything
today is just a facade?”
“Maybe I would’ve been worried before, but after hearing you say that, Im not worried anymore Justin
refilled Cornelia’s cup. “Ms. Stewart, you’re someone who knows what you want and what’s good for
you. Once you come to terms, you wont get stuck in painful memories”
*Thank you for your confidence in me, doctor. And thank you for what you said last night.” Cornelia
sipped her coffee. She didn’t usually drink coffee, but she could tell this was Patricia’s good coffee just
from the
aroma
Justin looked at Cornelia’s expression, “Are you blaming me, Ms. Stewart?”
Comella chuckled, “I’m sincerely grateful”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I was just doing my job. Theres no need for formalities, Ms Stewart‘ Justin checked the time. “Let’s
end here today I prescribe some medication for you later. Follow the instructions and we’ll see how it
goes
*Dr. Terrel, do you charge per session or per hour?” Although Marcus had offered to pay for her
treatment, Cornelia didn’t intend for him to actually do so.
“I charge by the hour We’ve just talked for an hour, so that would be five hundred dollars” Justin usually
charged patients by the second. This price might be steep for Cornelia and many ordinary people, but
for Marcus. It was just a fraction He paid Justin much more than that
Justin had to admire Marcus for his foresight. Before his chat with Cornelia, he’d told him about the
payment, instructing him to charge her a moderate fee
Justin figured Comelia should be able to afford five hundred dollars and wouldn’t suspect the price was
off.
