Chapter 640

The sadness that arose when thinking about the babies and Madam Fulcher was somewhat diluted by his presence.

Diana stood and appeared to want to rush downstairs. “I’ll go buy it for you.”

He pointed to the bedside. “We have some right here, but these grapes still have seeds.”

In other words, Diana had to peel each grape and remove the seeds individually.

“Nurses don’t usually do this kind of work, do they?” Diana said as she looked at the fruits, contemplating when she would finish peeling them before glancing at him silently.

Without glancing at her, Julian reclined on the hospital bed and said, “But my nurse does this kind of work. I want her to do whatever I ask.”

He raised an eyebrow. “You don’t want to?”
