Chapter 198
Forget it. Jerome had protected her several times before. He also nearly got hurt last night while helping her.
If he were injured and used it as an excuse to postpone the divorce, she would be in a pickle.
Mikayla felt much more relaxed after thinking about that.
Soon after, Connor came to the ward.
“Mikayla, Jay has finished his checkup. He accompanied you all night, so I asked him to rest at my place first.”
She nodded.
“Mikayla, Jay got hit on his waist. The doctor said he’d better stay in the hospital for a few days. But he’s too busy to rest. The doctor prescribed him some medicine to activate blood flow and alleviate pain. He needs to apply it and massage his waist every day.”
Was Connor hinting at her to help Jerome apply the medicine?
Mikayla smiled and pointed to her shoulder. “Unfortunately, my shoulder was injured. I can’t use much force, so I can’t help him.”
In her previous life, Jerome pushed her and injured her lumbar spine. It took her half a month to recover. He had only bumped into the table. His injury wasn’t that
serious.
Connor changed the topic. “He won’t bother you. His injury is on his waist. He can apply the medicine himself. But it might be inconvenient for you to massage your shoulder. Why don’t you let Jay help you?”
Mikayla refused. “No need. Amy will come back tomorrow. She can help me.”
He paused for a while before apologizing, “Mikayla, please don’t take what I’ve said to you too seriously. I always talk nonsense.”
She didn’t take it to heart at all.

The reason why he looked down on her was because Jerome never took her seriously. Naturally, his friends also wouldn’t take her seriously.
Mikayla giggled. “It doesn’t matter. You weren’t talking nonsense. It was true that I used to cling to Jerome in the past. It’s normal for you to stand up for him.”
Connor cleared his throat awkwardly. “By the way, I heard Ms. Reign works at the hospital. Will she come over tomorrow?”
“Celeste doesn’t work in this hospital. But she would come over. Do you need her to do something?”
“It’s nothing. I just want to thank for her help last night.”
“I see. I’ll let her know when she comes tomorrow.”
மா
“Thank you.” Connor took out his phone. “Mikayla, let’s exchange contact information. It’ll make it easier for us to contact each other if anything happens
again.”
His words sounded familiar.
In the past, Mikayla had requested Connor’s contact information to learn more about Jerome, but he had refused.
She returned his words to him. “I don’t think we’ll contact each other in the future. So there’s no need to exchange our contact information.”
Connor never expected Mikayla to be so vengeful.
Jerome would have a difficult time winning her back. After all, he had treated her so terribly before.
Connor returned to his ward, where Jerome rested with his eyes closed.
Hearing the sound, he opened his eyes, and his expression was unreadable.
Connor sighed. “It failed. Mikayla was neither willing to help you apply medicine nor let you help her. She even refused when I requested to exchange contact information.”

“Why did you ask for her contact information?” Jerome raised his brows.
“Jay, can you grasp the key points?”
Connor was rendered speechless. “I just want to keep an eye on her and see if I can find some opportunities for you.”
Jerome had known Connor for years and could see through his thoughts. He scoffed
and revealed the truth.
