Chapter 119

Now, it was not just about revoking the nursing license, Janet might also face a manslaughter lawsuit.

“Don’t follow your mentor for the next couple of days. You need to stay in Joseph’s ward 24/7 to keep watch. You’ll be paid overtime, and you can choose overtime pay or compensatory leave. Joseph’s assistant, Liam, is also in the ward, so you two can take turns guarding.”

Jake nodded immediately, “Okay, I’m just about to go home next month, so I’ll take compensatory leave then for this overtime.”

“Okay, whatever arrangement you want, I’ll approve it. But you must keep a close watch. Captain Felton will come to record statements tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

After the instructions, Jake went downstairs.

Jessica and Chris didn’t want to fuss either.

The office was connected to a lounge, where Jessica had long prepared a small bed and daily necessities.

Jessica was so sleepy she couldn’t open her eyes and grabbed Chris’s collar, pulling him into the back room.

“Ms. Wilder, you prepared this room a long time ago. When did you plan to live with me?”

The moment Chris opened the door and saw the bed, he couldn’t help but chuckle softly, holding Jessica’s waist.

Jessica yawned. “Whenever you want, anytime.”

She grabbed Chris’s collar again, looking at him intensely. “But I’d rather not find anyone else sleeping on this bed besides you and me.”

The room’s items had been prepared long ago, even couple’s pajamas.

Unexpectedly, Jessica still had such a girlish heart.

The two got changed and fell asleep on the small bed.

Early the next morning, Jessica woke up early, dressed neatly, and took advantage of the hospital being empty to hurry to work.

Chris woke up groggily hearing movement nearby, reached beside him, and found no one.

“Up so early?” Chris rubbed his eyes and got up.

Chapter 119

Jessica was already applying lipstick in front of the mirror.

She stepped back after hearing him. “Why do you think? Should I let the whole hospital see me leaving your office and prove that you’re my sugar baby?”

That sounded a bit harsh.

Chris got up and walked behind her, hugging her and bending down to kiss her once.

“It’s okay, I don’t really care. After all, I’ve been living off you for so many years, one more time won’t hurt.”

In the mirror, Chris looked half-asleep, eyes half-closed, but it was clear he was joking.

Chris only got up half an hour after Jessica left.

These past days had been nonstop for both him and Jessica, and they were both a bit worn out.

He quickly washed up, got dressed, and went downstairs directly to check the ward.

Joseph and Liam were both in the ward.

Seeing Chris enter, Liam stood up.

Jake was still sitting on the sofa playing games, not moving at all.

“Dr. Green,” said Liam, knowing Chris was a friend of his employer, and apparently they had a good relationship.

Chris grunted in reply and walked over to check Joseph’s condition.

He opened Joseph’s eyes and saw the eyeballs moving, seemingly starting to respond to external light.

From this, it looked like he would definitely wake up today.

Chris withdrew his hand and turned to Liam. “You can sit if you want. I know Nina, you don’t need to be so nervous.”

Liam thought, “That’s exactly the reason that I’m nervous!”

But Liam had been a celebrity assistant for many years, so he naturally had his ways to handle people.

“Yes, I know. She mentioned it.”

“Oh? Did your employer say something bad about me?” Chris was in a good mood and even joked.
