You must be busy, so I won’t bother you anymore,” Eileen said, trying not to interrupt Jasper’s work.

Jasper focused his attention on her. “Won’t you ask what I’m doing?”

Eileen hesitated; she didn’t think it was necessary for him to inform her of his work. Besides, she didn’t have the habit of prying into others’ privacy.

“Eileen, must we be so formal with each other?” His voice turned deep.

Jasper tiredly pressed his temples. “I haven’t been taking my medicine recently. I’m sorry, Eileen. I didn’t mean to be so forceful. I’m not doing it on purpose.”

Eileen said with concern, “Jasper, even if you’re busy, you should take your medicine. Your health is important. If it’s unnecessary socializing, you can skip it. Your health comes first.”

In fact, all he wanted to hear was a simple expression of concern.
