Married by Accident Taming the Billionaire (Cecilia) novel Chapter 302

Chapter 302 Marry Me Then!
"Cece, we heard that Verda Hill is in the hospital so we're here to visit him!"
Jessica stated emotionlessly.
These two sisters had always been as cold as machines, showing no signs of warmth.
Cecelia , used to their demeanor, nodded. "Yes, Verda is here. You can go and see him."
Cecelia allowed them to enter the ward. Everyone was somewhat acquainted. When they entered, Everest Theodore got up to greet them.
"Jessica, Kara!"
"Jessica, Kara, you don't have to come all this way just to see me. I'm already much better," Verda said.
After visiting Verda, Cecelia had something to do and left the ward. Not too far away, Jessica and Kara caught up with her.
"Cece, wait for us."
"What's wrong?"
"Cece, our boss asked us to look after you and ensure your safety," Kara said.
"I understand, but I don't need you to come and protect me for the time being. I can handle things on my own. Please go back and help senior brother. Isn't he preparing for the group's participation in the banquet? He must be very busy."
Cecelia finished speaking, gave a faint smile, and walked away.
When she turned her face, no one saw the smile gradually fading away.
It could be said that ever since she discovered her daughter was still alive and had been adopted by Maggie Taylor as a hostage for five years, she had become suspicious of Jessica and Kara's past assistance.
However, she couldn't find any clues that proved their connection with Maggie Taylor.
Nevertheless, she could no longer trust them as she did before!
For the sudden appearance of the sisters, Cecelia 's immediate response was to be vigilant.
After Cecelia walked away, Jessica and Kara exchanged glances.
"What should we do now? It seems like Cece is meaning to avoid us," Jessica asked.
"Yeah, I feel that too. Maybe we need to do something to win her trust back," Kara analyzed.
The two sisters began to plan how to regain Cecelia 's acceptance.
After visiting Verda, Cecelia went to check on Cynthia Nelson.
Cynthian's condition had improved considerably, and she spoke much more clearly than a few days ago. Aurora Snow was taking care of her diligently in the ward.
When Cecelia arrived at the ward, she happened to meet Shepard Nuno standing outside.
"Shepard, why aren't you going in?"
Shepard Nuno turned back and smiled awkwardly at her.
"Has Cynthia's memory still not come back to her?" Cecelia asked.
"Yes, she still doesn't remember me," Shepard Nuno replied.
Because Cynthia's memory was stuck two years ago, she considered Shepard and Cecelia as strangers.
Even if she knew their identities, the feelings she had for them were no longer there.
Especially for Shepard, having experienced her enthusiasm and now witnessing her coldness, the emotional gap was the most unbearable.
"It's alright, Shepard. Acquaintances begin as strangers. Do you remember when Cynthia first met you? She was smitten with you and insisted that I introduce you to her.
"Now that she has forgotten you, treat her as a new friend. It's a good opportunity for both of you.
"If you still can't accept her as before, it's also a good chance to become familiar strangers," Cecelia suggested.
"I understand," Shepard Nuno forced a bitter smile.
Someone had already left an indelible mark in his heart. At this moment, admitting it was over, how could never do it.
However, Cecelia was right; he and Cynthia could start anew.
It was Cynthia who had pursued him relentlessly before. So, he could take the initiative, right?
"Let's go in and see her."
Cecelia invited Shepard to enter the ward together. When Cynthia saw her sister-in-law and the doctor coming in, she greeted Cecelia alone.
"Cece, you're here!"
"Cynth, Shepard and I came to see you. Are you feeling better today?"
"I'm a bit better. Mom is taking good care of me."
As Cynthia and Shepard's eyes met, she felt that the way Dr. Nuno looked at her was strange.
Cecelia wanted to give them some space and said, "Shepard, could you stay and check on Cynthia? I have something to attend to."
Aurora also got it and added, "Dr. Nuno, could you please take care of Cynthia for me? I need to go buy something."
After they left, only the Cynthia and Shepard remained in the ward, staring at each other.
Cynthia stared at him curiously and asked, "Dr. Nuno, why do you always look at me with that expression?"
"What kind of expression?"
Shepard sat down by her bedside and suddenly leaned closer. "Don't you have something to say to me?"
Cynthia had heard that he had given her a blood transfusion and saved her life, so saying thank you was necessary.
"Thank you for giving me the blood and saving my life."
"I saved your life, and all you can say is thank you?"
"What else should I say? Do I need to marry you?"
"Yes!"
The handsome face of the man drew closer, startling Cynthia. "What are you doing?"
"What do you think?"
Shepard suddenly grasped her wrist and enveloped her in his arms. "You just said you would marry me, didn't you?"
"I... I was just joking..."
Cynthia's scalp tingled, and she looked somewhat frightened. In her eyes, Dr. Nuno was no different from those terrifying, deranged doctors.
Seeing the fear in her, Shepard suddenly smiled and let go of her. "Then consider yourself my girlfriend."
Did he just ask her to be his girlfriend?
Was he pursuing her?
"That's not quite right. I already have someone I like."
Cynthia bluntly rejected him, and Shepard didn't seem angry. Instead, he asked, "Who do you like?"
"Of course, it's my idol, Jimmy Bloom!"
Shepard didn't say anything else. He left the ward and returned shortly with two magazines in his hands. "Here."
"What's this?"
He placed the magazines on the bedside table, and Cynthia found that they were photo collections of Jimmy Bloom.
"Ah, it's all Jimmy! Wow, he's so handsome! Thank you!"
Cynthia was bored, and these handsome photo collections were enough to pass the time.
In the days that followed, Shepard became an accommodating assistant. Whatever Cynthia wanted, he made an effort to fulfill her wishes.
