Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Actually, Dr. Lester was already touched by Ben’s words, “You gotta stick like glue to Marc tomorrow. Don’t let him catch a chill. If he gets a cold, his body won’t stand a chance against the virus, then who knows what will happen.”

Ben said, “I’ll get the job done, you can count on me.”

Dr. Lester gave him a stink eye, “You have the nerve to tell me to relax? Just a few days ago when he went to see Cornelia, you said you’d look after him, and how did that turn out?”

Ben explained, “President Hartley hung out in Cornelia’s room for quite a while that night, and didn’t let me tag along. I was stuck waiting outside. I had no idea he’d stay that long, if it wasn’t for the break of dawn and Cornelia nearly waking up, he might not have left.”

Dr. Lester wanted to whack him with a broomstick, “You say you had no choice? Didn’t I ask you to stick with him to prevent him from doing something he shouldn’t?”

Ben said, “I’ll be on his tail like a shadow tomorrow. Won’t let him screw up.”

Dr. Lester said, “Forget it, I’ll tail him myself tomorrow.”
