Chapter 122 I Have Fallen For Her

“F*ck. That’s not the same!” Wyatt retorted. “You know what Kristie’s like! She clings to anyone who treats her well. Besides, there’s no way Theodore has romantic feelings for her. I’m willing to bet my life on that!”

Alas, it wasn’t long before his confidence deflated. “Do you think Theodore—”

“There are some things you’re better off not knowing. Otherwise, you’d only stir up trouble,” Jeremy explained, determined not to tell Wyatt the truth since he knew what the latter was like. “If you’re bored, you can always drop by the nearest church to pray for Curtis’ recovery.”

“Argh! How would I know anything if you refuse to tell me? Besides, you’re older than me. Shouldn’t you take the lead to pray for Curtis?”

Before Jeremy could reply, a lady walking hastily with her head down bumped into Wyatt’s arm and staggered several steps backward.

“Miss, must you be in such a rush? You’re already at the hospital, aren’t you?” Wyatt scolded as his gaze fell on the woman before him. Oh, wow, she’s short. I think she’s only a few inches over five feet…

Just as he was about to poke fun at her, the woman met his eyes, looking somewhat dazed as she rubbed her forehead.

Almost immediately, Wyatt gasped and felt his heart skip a beat.

“Oh, did I bump into you? I’m so sorry. I’m in a hurry to fetch someone,” Jessica replied while apologizing profusely. She rushed to the hospital as soon as she heard what happened to Rayna and had to admit she wasn’t paying much attention to her surroundings.

Like a gentleman, Wyatt quickly cleared his throat and smiled. “It’s okay. I—”

“I don’t have any cash right now, so please accept this milkshake as my apology. Bye!” Jessica added before pulling out a cup of milkshake from her bag and putting it in Wyatt’s hand. With that, she hurriedly walked away and entered the hospital.

Unfortunately, everything happened so fast that Wyatt didn’t even get a chance to ask Jessica for her WhatsApp.
