Chapter 737: The Bailey Family

Tina smiled, her eyes curving, "Has Jason not recovered from his injury yet?"

Courtney replied, "He has recovered. But the spot where he was injured by the explosion still hurts when it's cloudy and rainy. Tina, do you have any good remedies that could fully heal him?" "Yes," Tina replied, her eyes gleaming with mischief.

"But why are you asking? Why not have him come here himself? You know, I need to see the patient to prescribe the right treatment."

Hearing this, Courtney's cheeks reddened further.

"I, I wanted him to come himself. But he's afraid to, you know. He's scared of Mr. Farrell, and also..."

Her voice trailed off, growing fainter, her expression filled with hesitation and discomfort.

Tina grew more curious.

"What else is there?"

She had never seen Courtney look so troubled.

Lysander, unburdened by such concerns, spoke up loudly, "Tina, I know. It's all Orson's fault. Lately, that guy has been sticking to Courtney non-stop."

What mattered most was that he wasn't just clinging to her like glue, but also taking every chance to declare his feelings with the most awkward and cringeworthy methods picked up who knows where. He went through the whole ritual in front of Courtney.

Lysander counted on his fingers, "I told him to learn from Jared. He insisted on doing it himself, starting with candles and roses, which was normal. But then, those acrylic music boxes with rainbow colors and Courtney's photos printed on them, shaped like hearts? Or a bunch of cacti, who knows what he was thinking, and later, a glass orb..."

Tina already felt secondhand embarrassment just listening.

Her lips twitched, and she had no hope for what Lysander would say next.

Lysander opened his mouth, struggled with his wording, and finally, unable to hold it in, burst out laughing.

"Tina, you should have seen that glass orb. Inside was a little model of Orson, and when it moved, it started singing and hopping around everywhere, hahaha!"
