Bye-Bye Jerk, Hello Mr. Right by Rosie Steppe

Chapter 192

My mouth was faster than my brain-again. Ugh, such a problem.

The second the words left my lips, I realized how inappropriate they sounded.

I was scrambling to figure out how to backtrack when Hayden just said, "Alright."

Wait, what? Did he just... agree?

He didn't brush it off, didn't make some macho comment about not needing my help?

Even if he didn't reject the idea of staying with me, I figured he'd at least say no to borrowing money. But this time, he didn't.

He must really be struggling. The thought that he might actually need help for his sister tugged at my heart a little.

That feeling passed fast, and I cleared my throat, trying to get back on track. "Has your sister seen any doctors? If she has medical records, send them to me. I know some people who could help." "Sure," he agreed.

With nothing left to say, I stood up. "Thanks for today. I should get going."

Hayden looked at me. "If you start feeling sick again, call me."

"Will do," I replied with a smile, turning away and letting out a quiet sigh of relief.
