“Don’t overexert yourself,” Liberty advised.
“I won’t,” Serenity replied.
The sisters chatted for a while before ending the call. Serenity glanced at the clock and then gently woke Zachary for his next round of medication.
By the time the doctor made his rounds, Zachary’s temperature had decreased once more, and he appeared to be feeling better.
Mr. Tank stopped by to deliver a hot breakfast for the couple, prepared by his wife. Serenity continued to feed Zachary, one spoonful at a time.
She felt it was important to impress Mr. Tank, as she was receiving a salary from him; otherwise, he might question her value.
Watching the scene unfold, Mr. Tank thought that the CEO’s wife was incredibly caring towards Mr. York.
Her consideration and gentleness were evident.
It was no wonder Mr. York cherished his wife.
Gentleness has the power to soften even the hardest hearts.
Moreover, Mr. York had been more amiable towards Mr. Tank, showing no objection to the doctor’s recommendation for him to stay in the hospital.
Mr. Bucham was correct.
With the CEO’s wife around, she would manage everything and protect their interests.
“Doctor, can my husband’s medication be switched to an injection instead?” Serenity asked.
Zachary was left speechless.
Did he really need a shot?
Why did the doctor have to mention the side effects of the medication?
The doctor responded, “He can receive an injection, but they tend to be more potent and may cause adverse reactions such as nausea and sores.”
Mr. Tank interjected, “It’s fine, doctor. Just give Mr. York the best treatment available.”
Zachary shot Mr. Tank a dirty look.
Mr. Tank was taken aback by the glare.
Had he said something wrong?
Mr. York did not want to remain in the hospital.
The hospital shot might be his way out of this situation. The doctor said, “As you requested a shot, I will arrange to substitute the pills with one.” Zachary wanted to scowl but feared his wife would notice his expression. All he could do was silently curse Mr. Tank.
