Chapter 217

“Don’t say that. You don’t owe me anything.” I shook my head.

Russel heaved a sigh, “But you’re my girlfriend. If I can’t even take care of you, what’s the point of me?”

I smiled a bit, somewhat touched

At that moment, my dad chimed in from behind us, “Get a professional nurse to take care of your mom, so no one else can bother her?

I had the same thought, given how swamped I was

My dad was about to go on a business trip, so he dropped by to check on my mom. Bonnie’s actions and words earlier had weighed heavily on him. He was frowning the whole time.

The three of us left the hospital together. Bailey was waiting at the door for my dad. After they left, Russel took my hand and led me to his car.

“Let’s get you some food; put some weight back on,” he said with a grin.

“If only one meal could restore all the weight I’ve lost,” I sighed, letting Russel lead me.

He turned to look at me and said, “What’s so hard about that? From now on, I’ll eat with you every day. If I can’t, I’ll have someone send you gourmet food to make sure you’re well-nourished and healthy.”

Being so cherished felt so good Looking into Russel’s eyes, I suddenly felt that we were finally like a normal couple.

Russel took me out for a lavish dinner. He was incredibly gentlemanly and tender, peeling shrimp and picking out bones for me. Everything was perfect. It was the most relaxing day Id had in a while.

“Russel, were you mad when you found out I’d asked Neil and Anthony for help? Why are you still so good to me?” I rested my cheek on my hand, watching him across the table.

“I wasn’t mad; I was jealous.” Russel looked at me helplessly and said, “I’m your boyfriend, but you didn’t want to tell me when you had problems, instead asking other men for help. How could I not be jealous?”
