Chapter: 1069
You've been a tremendous help to our family and we won't forget your kindness."
He adjusted the bouquet thoughtfully, ensuring it looked its best, and added, “So I've taken time off to visit you today and express our gratitude. Do you Like sunflowers? Wishing you a speedy recovery!"
"Don't worry. It's just a cold! I'll bounce back soon," Norah reassured.
Jarrod's unexpected words surprised her. His genuine expression of concern made Norah momentarily fear a more serious diagnosis.
"A cold can linger longer than expected. Mr. Scott and I are concerned for your well-being. Get well soon," Jarrod said casually.
Marlin crossed the room toward Norah, placing a bouquet of pink tulips on the table.
"Miss Wilson, on behalf of my entire family, I wish you a swift recovery."
His impeccably tailored suit accentuated his well-proportioned figure, characterized by broad shoulders and long legs, exuding confidence and grace.
Norah found Marlin always looked impeccable no matter what he wore.
In Silverdale, the Boyd family garnered significant media attention, especially from local financial outlets.
This was why Marlin meticulously maintained his public image.
Norah responded with a smile, “I'm feeling much better. Thank you for coming to visit."
It was thoughtful of them to visit her at the hospital, anyway.
Glancing briefly at Marlin, she was struck by the sudden realization that he might have been the cause of her recent argument with Sean.
She hadn't been interested in him after their disagreement.
Though it puzzled her that Marlin treated her differently, she knew she was in a committed relationship and shouldn't pay much attention to other men.
She chuckled softly. "Thank you for checking on me. I'm feeling tired now and would like to rest."
“Miss Wilson, I'll take my leave now. Get some good rest. I hope you feel better soon!" Marlin said earnestly.
It pained him to see Norah lying in a hospital bed. Yet he understood that he couldn't be the one to care for her.
He knew she had a boyfriend.
Jarrod was reluctant to leave. He cherished his time with Norah.
Lately, he had been working tirelessly. Taking time off was a challenge, but he wanted to spend as much of it as possible with her.
"Will you go home after your IV infusion?" Jarrod asked gently. "I can drive you. I know Mr. Scott is busy and has to return to work.
You're unwell. I want to stay and look after you. I'll keep quiet while you rest."
