Ex-Husband’s Love Dilemma

Chapter 40

Everyone was about to move to the hall when William suddenly said, “Cassie, come and help me.”

Okay. Cassandra hurried over.

Peter slowed down until everyone had entered the hall before saying to Cassandra, “Cassie, don’t worry.”

“Grundpa Peter, 1 stand by my decision. Don’t let him know that I am pregnant,” Cassandra said.

“Okay, rest assured,” said Peter, as he patted the back of her hand to comfort her.

Cassandra breathed a sigh of relief.

Weston Garrett, who came to have a physical examination, had worked for the Quinn family for many years, so they were all familiar with each other.

After everyone sat down, Orlando said. “Mr. Garrett, thanks for making the trip here. Cassandra often vomits lately. What could be the cause?”

Weston paused for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face. But before he could say anything. Peter said, “Let him take at look at me first. I’m an old man. I feel my heart beating fast lately. Could you examine it to see if there is any problem?”

Frederick was worried when he heard that Peter was not feeling well and asked, “Dad, are you all right?”

“Don’t be nervous. It’s nothing serious. I just want Dr. Garrett to take a look at me. Well, I’ll go back to my room and lie down. You can come to my room to examine me,” Peter said.

Weston nodded and followed Peter back to the room with his stethoscope..

Frederick tried to keep up, but he was turned down.

Gabriela was confused. “What’s wrong with Peter? Why is he acting so mysteriously?”

Orlando also looked at Peter’s back with an enigmatic look on his face. As the party involved, Cassandra naturally knew why Peter was acting that way.

Hence, Cassandra said softly, “Grandpa Peter must be fired and hasn’t had a good rest for the whole morning. It’s good to have Mr. Garrett have a look at him. If there’s anything wrong, we’ll be able to look into it in time.”

“Yes, Cassie is right. Well, let’s not worry about it.” Gabriela also thought it was reasonable. Then, she had the fruit washed and handed it to Cassandra, “You haven’t eaten much. Eat some fruit, or your stomach will be upset.

“Okay, thank you, Gabriela, Cassandra said with a nod.

About ten minutes later, Weston came out of Peter’s bedroom.
