Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back!

Chapter 279

Amy messaged on WhatsApp to ask about a patient’s status. By the time Leanne had texted back, Curtis was already rolling up his sleeves and heading into the kitchen.

Dressed in a posh suit that seemed out of place amidst the homely kitchen atmosphere, his hands caught her attention-long fingers, veins subtly pronounced under the skin, extending down to his forearms.

Noticing her awake, he playfully pinched her nose, “Sleepyhead.”

“Thirsty?” Curtis offered her a cup.
