Chapter 201: Chapter 201

Dear Sweetheart Chapter 201 Such A Troublemaker At a private hospital in Hallsbay, Ringo was pacing up and down the hallway restlessly.

He rushed forward the moment the ward door was pushed open. “How is he?” he asked the doctor who had stepped out.

“Things are not looking good for him,” the doctor said heavily and glanced at the ward. It wasn’t hard to tell that the man lying on the hospital bed was in a lot of pain by the frown on his deathly pale face.

Ringo’s heart fell. “How much time does he have left?” he croaked.

“That will depend on Mr. Hamilton himself,” said the doctor. “He’ll have at least three more years if he stays in the hospital and keeps a cool head. Or he’ll be gone in a year if he keeps tiring himself out. What news did Mr. Hamilton see that caused him to cough up blood and faint that night? He’ll be gone in half a month if he keeps that up.”

Ringo’s face darkened.

What else? It’s that woman!

“Please look after him, doctor. I know you’re the best out there.”

The doctor sighed. “I’m incapable of treating his illness no matter how good I am. Did you find the plant I told you about that can regenerate cells? There will be hope for Mr. Hamilton if we can get our hands on the plant.”

Ringo replied a beat later, “No.”

Truth be told, they had found a big patch of the plant some time ago. However, Jefferson had ordered his men to destroy it because he was mad at Rayna for helping Curtis out. And with that, he had also killed his only hope of survival.

“Well, that’s too bad,” said the doctor. “But now that I think about it, it makes sense. How could a plant with cell-regenerating abilities exist in this world? It’s against the laws of heaven!”

The doctor left to carry out his duties after saying a few more words.

Ringo entered the ward.

He couldn’t bear to watch Jefferson suffer. The latter looked as if he would die at any moment.

“Belle...” the man lying on the hospital bed called out gently in his sickly state.

At that moment, Ringo’s temper flared, and he punched the wall.

Rayna! Mr. Hamilton is a talented young man with a bright future ahead of him. Why does he insist on hanging around this one woman?

Just then, a tall, ferocious-looking man walked into the room. “I brought my men, Ringo,” he said cautiously.

“Watch after Mr. Hamilton. Don’t let him watch the news, and he’s not allowed to use his laptop and phone,” Ringo instructed. He had to make sure Jefferson kept a cool head from now on.

“What do I do if Mr. Hamilton insists?” one of the men asked.

“Is your brain for display only? Can’t you think for yourself?” Ringo sneered. “Should I check if your brain is still working?”

“N-No need.” The man felt a chill down his spine. “I know what to do.”

Ringo brought the man out of the ward and spoke in a low voice. “I’m going overseas in a few days. Tell Violet to keep an eye on Ms. Garland and don’t let Mr. Hamilton know about it.”

“Ringo, how about I send some of my people over to keep an eye on Ms. Garland? I don’t know what Violet is up to. It’s hard to get a hold of her.”

“Do you need me to teach you?” asked Ringo.

“I’ll contact her immediately!” The man pulled his phone out and dialed Violet’s number.

I don’t have a choice, do I?

Rayna stayed over at Linda’s that night and caught a fever. James quickly sent her to the hospital, as her temperature was high.

However, her fever persisted for three days even after she received the injection.

It frightened even the most experienced doctors. They kept running over to check on her condition and gave her an injection every few hours. Almost her whole arm had been pricked by needles.

It wasn’t until Jeremy rushed over to give Rayna an injection that she recovered.

“Is my daughter okay?” Linda was on the verge of tears. “Why won’t her fever go down?”

“Everything’s fine. She’ll wake up tomorrow,” Jeremy replied with a smile after giving Rayna a check-up.

James chased him out of the room upon hearing that.

“James, what are you doing?” Linda quickly stopped him. “This man saved your sister. You should at least thank him for it.”

“Doctor? He’s no doctor!” said James scornfully. “You know exactly why my sister is in such a state.”

“Curtis is indeed in the wrong,” Jeremy admitted.

He never expected Rayna to be so triggered by Curtis’ actions. She probably would have brain damage if this carried on.

It’s all Curtis’ fault.

“That’s it?” James said through gritted teeth. “My sister never wronged him. How could he treat her like a fool? Tell Mr. Faymon never to show himself in front of my sister again, or else no one can protect him from me if I want to beat him up.”

Jeremy sighed.

James had every right to be angry. There was nothing he could say or do about the situation.

He picked up his medical kit and left. On his way out, he ran into Kristie in the hallway.

“Kristie? What are you doing here?”

“Jeremy.” Kristie made her way over, looking pale. “How is Rayna?”

“She’s fine now. I gave her an injection.”

“That’s good to hear.” Kristie felt relieved. “Wyatt has told me everything. Curt is too much. He should have told Rayna directly that he needed her help.”

“I think he must have felt that Rayna was suitable for the job since she’s smart. Moreover, he’s probably forcing her to grow since he admires her so much.” Jeremy expressed his opinion.

“Why has Curt never forced me to do anything?”

“Then you’ll have to think why Curtis only sees you as a kid.” Jeremy smiled. “Because you’re not his type. He’s not interested in you.”

Kristie pouted unhappily. “I can make money too.”

“All I can say is Curtis deserves it,” Jeremy said matter-of-factly. “He will have a hard time dealing with Ms. Garland’s little brother from here on out.”

“I hate him so much.” Kristie felt wronged as she recalled Curtis’ actions. “Why do I have to get pulled into this when it’s entirely his fault? I lost my boyfriend because of him.”

Jeremy was shocked. “When did you have a boyfriend?”

“It’s Rayna’s brother!”

“Pretty good choice, except for his temper.” Jeremy and Curtis both approved of James. “Tell me, how did you guys break up?”

Kristie told Jeremy everything that had happened that day.

“James then ignored me and even blocked me. Wyatt told me Rayna fell sick. That’s why I came to the hospital to visit her,” she sobbed.

Jeremy shook his head.

My, my. Curtis caused Kristie to lose her boyfriend. How terrible!

“Your ex is furious right now. He won’t even spare you a glance if you go now.” Jeremy placed a hand on her shoulder and led her toward the exit. “Let him take care of Ms. Garland. We’ll go home.”

Kristie burst into uncontrollable tears as she was overcome with the indignity she had suffered.

“How can I sleep without him? I’ll have insomnia for sure. This is all Curtis’ fault. He’s so heartless. I’m sure no woman would fall for him.”

Jeremy roared with laughter at her words. “He used to be your favorite last time. You were so afraid of him being taken away from you,” he teased.

“Jeremy!”

“I’ll stop. Let’s get down to business.” Jeremy held back his laughter. “Do you want to get back at Curtis? You can even get back together with your ex.”

“How?” Kristie asked without missing a beat.

Jeremy whispered his plan in her ear. “How is it? Can you do it?”

“I don’t like Ms. Sanders...” Kristie mumbled. “But never mind that. I can put up with anything as long as I get even with Curtis!”
