Chapter 28 - Chapter 28

"Babe, do you think that coming to your house is a good idea? You know that your mother and I don't get along" Catherine said to Jerry sorrowfully with her head placed on Jerry's chest.

It has been a long day at work, after Jerry brought her home they decided to discuss for a little while in the car.

"Come-on Catherine you complain a lot, my dad was the one who asked for you to come over, so this time around my stepmother can't do anything to you and also we can't do the whole wedding preparations at your house, you also need to come to my place for that." Jerry said to Catherine while arranging some of her hair that was covering her face.

"OK if you say so, by the way how is Boris doing?" Catherine inquired.

"Well he's getting better even though some of the symptoms of the poison are still affecting him." Jerry said to Catherine who nodded in agreement.

"Haven't the authorities been able to find out who is responsible for his poisoning?" Catherine asked Jerry who shook his head negatively.

"They haven't found anything, that's why I also assigned two guards over Boris ward, the person that did that to him in the company might come back to finish what he started." Jerry said to Catherine who nodded in agreement.

"I pray that he gets better soon, he can't be absent during our wedding and he's also one of the reasons why we are together again after what Lucy did to us" Jerry said to Catherine while kissing her forehead.

"Don't worry babe he will get better before then by God's grace" Catherine said to Jerry who nodded in agreement.

"By the way Lucy visited me some days ago" Catherine informed Jerry who widened his eyes in surprise.

"What!What did she want?" Jerry asked angrily.

"Come-on babe cool down, she only came to apologize to me." Catherine said to Jerry who furrowed his brows at her.

"Are you serious? Lucy apologized to you?" Jerry inquired surprisedly and Catherine nodded in agreement.

"She also told me to ask for your forgiveness on her behalf" Catherine informed Jerry who smiled mischievously.

"I will advise you to stay away from her, I have been with her for almost a year and as far as I know Lucy she will never apologize to someone even if she's wrong. "This is just one of her devilish moves to get near me because actually she can't approach me due to the restriction I imposed on her." Jerry explained to Catherine who heaved a sigh.

"But babe you know people do change, what if she's truly sorry for all that she did?" Catherine asked Jerry with an inquisitive tone.

"Well I don't know but I still stand my ground, stay away from her if you don't want troubles" Jerry said to Catherine who decided to stop trying to convince him because it was clear that Jerry was never going to change his mind.

"Babe do you know what I want?" Catherine asked Jerry while peering into his eyeballs and Jerry shook his head negatively.

"I want to kiss you" Catherine said to Jerry who furrowed his brows at her.

"How much do you have?" Jerry asked her teasingly.

"Name your price" Catherine said to Jerry while approaching her lips towards him.

Before Jerry could reply Catherine had already started kissing him.

As both of them were kissing each other passionately they heard a knock on the glass of the car that interrupted their passionate moment.

Immediately they disengaged from the kiss and turned they saw Catherine's mum who was staring at both of them.

Bellevue hospital was still filled with numerous people despite the fact that it was already getting late in the night.

Among the people were the nurses and the doctors who were pacing up and down while attending to their different activities while the others were those waiting for their own turn to be attended to or those who had someone they were waiting for in the hospital.

The ward of Boris was guarded by two guards who were dressed in doctors coats to avoid being suspected by anyone who could come to do any harm to Boris.

In addition to that they were watching over the ward from some distance away.

As they were watching over it a lady started heading towards the door of the ward with a plastic bag.

"Hey stop right there" A voice roared from behind and immediately the lady stopped.

"Who are you and who are you looking for?" One of the guards inquired with a straight face.

"I'm Christine, one of Boris' colleagues" She replied while showing them her card.

"OK wait here " One of the guards ordered her before entering inside the ward.

After some seconds he came out and ordered her to go in.

Once Christine came in she saw him lying on the bed discussing with his little brother that was sitting beside him.

"Hello Boris, how are you doing?" Christine asked him while approaching him.

"I'm fine Christine I wasn't expecting to see you" Boris said while adjusting himself on the bed.

"Hi good evening" Boris' little brother greeted her and immediately she reciprocated the greeting.

"You aren't happy to see me right?" Christine inquired while feigning to be angry.

"Bro please let me get something outside" Boris' little brother said to Boris who nodded in agreement.

"It's not that I'm not happy to see but I never Imagined that you would find it in your heart to visit me due to the way you give me a hard time in the company." Boris said to Christine while smiling.

"Whatever Boris, that's the problem with you, you are very annoying and that's why I always give you a hard time." Christine said to Boris while sitting beside him on the bed and immediately the both of them smiled.

" See what I got you" Christine said to Boris while bringing out a cooler from the plastic bag that she was holding.

"Once she opened the cooler the aroma of the fried rice filled the whole room and immediately Boris started salivating.

Before handing the cooler to Boris she first took a scoop of the food and ate it before handing it to him.

"What did you do that for?" Boris asked her.

"It's just to show you that the food isn't poisoned." Christine said to Boris who shook his head in disbelief.

"Wow the food is really delicious, you are really a great cook." Boris said to Christine.

"Thanks a lot, I'm happy that you liked it" Christine said to Boris while smiling.

"How has work been going? Jerry told me that Daniel was substituting for me for the moment" Boris said to Christine while eating his food.

"Work is fine Boris and about Daniel being the accountant I wanted to talk to you about that too" Christine said to Boris with a worried tone.

"What's the issue, isn't he doing the work well?" Boris inquired.

"Well it's something like that, since when he became the accountant I have been noticing something fishy in his accounting" Christine informed Boris who furrowed his brows at him.

"Have you talked to Jerry about it?" Boris inquired.

"No I don't have enough evidence to prove what I'm saying for now, but I know that there is something fishy in his accounting" Christine informed Boris.

"Well don't worry too much about it, I will soon be discharged and I will personally verify what you are saying." Boris said to Christine reassuringly and she nodded in agreement.
