Chapter 1418

She voiced her complaints once more, but the young nurse listened with utter disdain.

“If you ask me, this couple is like a pair of leeches. Who knows who they might swindle next? Ah, whoever gets involved with them is just plain unlucky, ending up with such scum…”

After leaving the hospital, Wilfrid thought for a moment and decided to text his sister via WhatsApp: Dad’s fine, Sis. He just has acute gastroenteritis. It’s nothing serious, so you don’t need to worry. I heard they called you, I’m sorry for causing you trouble. I really am.

When Neera saw this message, she immediately called him back without a second thought.

“Sis?” Wilfrid froze, his voice filled with surprise and a hint of uncertainty.

“Yes, Wilfrid. It’s me. How have you been lately? I haven’t contacted you for a while. I’ve been really busy, otherwise I could have called you more often,” Neera said with a smile.

Wilfrid was overjoyed and quickly said, “It’s all right, Sis. I know you’re busy. Just focus on your work, everything is fine here, so you don’t need to worry about me. When you have some free time, come back and I’ll treat you to a meal.”

Neera chuckled. “Why would you, as my younger brother, need to treat me to a meal? You’re still a student. If anyone should be treating, it should be me, as your older sister.”

Wilfrid smiled shyly. “I’m an adult now. In fact, I already turned eighteen this year, so I’m a responsible man now. It’s just a meal, Sis. Do you really have to argue with me over it? Can’t you just let your little brother show off a bit?”

Neera was greatly comforted, her eyes filled with joy and relief.
