A Replacement Bride

Chapter 84

Chapter 84

Katherine looked up and fixed her gaze upon Joaquin without showing any signs of rejection. Then, the two of them made their way to the infirmary, but as soon as they got there, they were greeted by Jeremy, who was standing at the door. At that moment, Jeremy gazed at Katherine with a pair of flustered cheeks, ashamed of his ego for doubting the lady who ironically proved him wrong later.

"I'm sorry for doubting you earlier, and I must admit that you're an impressive doctor." Jeremy stood in Katherine's way and apologized to her after a few seconds of hesitation.

"No worries," Katherine replied, seemingly unconcerned with Jeremy's apology.

Although Jeremy still had something he wanted to say, he noticed Joaquin's gaze and swallowed the words that were forming at the tip of his tongue. He then shifted his eyes to Katherine shortly before he turned around and scurried away.

"Does everyone around here behave as he does? He is cute, isn't he?" Katherine looked at Joaquin after having her eyes glued to Jeremy's back.

Joaquin raised his eyebrows upon hearing the lady, feeling something different about her since the first they met at the hotel. There is something about this lady. Now that we've spent some time together, I realize she is not only just a skilled fighter but also a good doctor. It's strange that no one knows a talented woman like her in Cechirus, but seriously, how has no one ever heard of her name? "You're not so bad yourself either." Joaquin gave an ambiguous reply, but Katherine played dumb in response to that.

As the duo exited Area Seven, they were greeted by the sight of a black Land Rover right outside the place. While Joaquin circled around the car to get to the driver's seat, Katherine went straight to the front passenger seat upon opening the door. The moment Joaquin was seated, he heard his phone ringing and looked down at it with a frown. However, he didn't answer the phone call right away as the phone continued to ring non-stop.

"Aren't you going to answer the call? Maybe it's something urgent." Katherine advised Joaquin to pick up the phone out of kindness, fixing her gaze on the man's expression.
