“Okay. When I come back, I’ll make it up to you with a New Year’s gift,” Jasper’s voice came through the phone, void of any emotion.

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

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.
