Chapter 225 Mike heaved a huge sigh of relief.
He fled right after he shoved the car keys in Jeromeâs hand.
Mikayla could no longer keep her thoughts to herself.
âWhat did you say to Mr. Ashford? Heâs acting skittish whenever Iâm near him,â she asked.
Jerome frowned. âHow do I know? Iâm not him. Donât you want to buy your medicine? Letâs go.â
His blatant lie rendered her speechless.
They strode toward the car.
Right after she fastened her seatbelt, she spotted Kylie in the parking lot.
She looked pale and wan, and she happened to notice them as well.
âMr. Miller, Mrs. Miller,â Kylie greeted them feebly, one of her hands clasped on her forehead.
âWhere are you going?â Jerome asked.
She winced, and replied, âMy forehead looks like itâs getting inflamed. It really hurts, but I forgot my medicine. Iâm going to buy some now.â
âWeâre about to head out . Send me the medicine you need, and Iâll bring back for you.â Jerome offered.
my own.
She shook her head while enduring the pain. âI donât want to trouble you guys. Iâm fine on my Mikayla snorted.
Seeing how agonized Kylie looked, she quipped, âMs. Whiteâs condition seems pretty serious. Why donât you take her to the hospital? Iâll take the cab instead.â
She unfastened her seatbelt, but Jerome stopped her. âDonât make a fuss.â
Kylie quickly blurted out an apology. âMrs. Miller, please donât be mad, Iâm-â
âQuit the act!â Mikayla snapped. âIf youâre not deliberately trying to piss me off, then why are you literally showing up wherever we go?â
Kylieâs eyes reddened as she mumbled a few words of apology. She over to her car and unlocked Jerome chanced a glance at Mikayla. âBuckle your seatbelt.â
He then drove a few feet forward and came to a halt in front of Kylieâs car.
âSend me the type of medicine you , and go have some rest. Weâll be back shortly,â he said.
Kylie like she was on the verge of collapsing. âThanks, Mr. Miller.â
Chapter 225 Jerome didnât respond and zoomed off instead.
Mikayla thought her initial notion to stop hating Jerome was foolish.
She only did slightly better in this life because she didnât offend Kylie. Otherwise, he would be equally mean to her as well.
Once they reached the pharmacy, she gave Jerome no heed as she promptly got out of the car.
She selected some digestive pills and antacids. She also bought some pain relief spray just in case Amy didnât pack any.
She went to the cashier after she was done choosing her medicine, and Jerome had the staff pick up the medicine he needed.
âIâll pay.â Jerome said as Mikayla was about to pay.
âNo. Itâs not like I canât afford it,â she retorted as she paid for their purchase.
Jerome remained silent since he was aware of how agitated Mikayla usually was regarding Kylie âDonât you wanna buy other stuff as well? Letâs head to the mall,â he suggested once they exited the pharmacy.
There was a type of whole grain scones made exclusively in Lakeville, and they were perfect for elderly people.
Mikayla intended to buy some of them for Wanda and Eduard, but now wasnât an ideal time to do so.
âKylieâs suffering now. You better bring the medicine back soon,â Mikayla said.
Jerome glanced over at her. âMikayla, thereâs a time and place for you to be jealous. Enough is enough.â
âJealous my ass! Are you nuts?â Mikayla marched off .
A car honked loudly as it raced toward her.
She jerked back in fright, and Jerome happened to catch her. She fell right into his arms.
