GoodReadChapter 304 Curtis finally looked up from his papers, flicking ashes from his cigarette.
"I mean, they are cats." he replied.
At a loss for words, Jennifer took a deep breath, visibly fighting the urge to punch him.
"Can you be serious for once? I need to talk to you about something important." Curtis remained nonchalant, "You were just tellingto speak up, now you're playing coy?" Jennifer was furious, but held back, giving him a sharp look. "Is there really no chance for you and Suzan?" "I wonder if you would have discussed matters of national importance with me." Curtis returned his attention to the documents in his hand, dismissive. “Mrs. Richardson, I'm really busy. If you're bored and want to chat, I charge by the second." "As if I love chatting with you, a single sentence from you is enough to kill me." Jennifer sighed. "Weren't you and Suzan doing well when you dated?" Curtis sneered, his words laced with irony, "Why I dated her should be obvious to you." "That was for your good! You two grew up together and seemed perfect for each other. I hoped that you..." She was cut off as Curtis interjected, "Who told you we were perfect for each other?" "I saw it with my eyes that the night I saw you two embracing." "Which night?" "Your sophomore year, after you won the mathematics competition and cback home." Curtis remembered. "Oh, that night." He took the cigarette from his mouth, twirling it between his fingers, his smirk cryptic.

"Suzan toldshe confessed to you and you accepted." Curtis had just heard about this, clicking his tongue, “I didn't even hear what she said." Jennifer was speechless, her emotions churned like a stormy sea.
For years, Curtis had been rebellious at home, living a carefree and reckless life. As his mother, she couldn't stand it anymore.

Sure, the Wrights weren't as high up on the ladder as the Richardsons, but their close-knit bond made them a pretty good pair.
In the end, it was all a comedic misunderstanding.
"Don't tellyou liked Leanne back then. How old was she?" The men from the Richardson family were both strikingly handsome. The eldest, Phillip, resembled their father Maddox. Curtis had always been told he looked like Jennifer.
Privately, Jennifer had always had a soft spot for him.
Now here was wayward Curtis, slouching on the couch, his laugh both open and infuriating, "I'm a jerk. Is this news to you?" Jennifer felt a migraine coming on.
She sighed deeply, no longer wanting to deal with him.
But she couldn't just leave it be.

If it is a serious one, you and dad can handle it. My presence won't heal him." Jennifer cut straight to the point, “Leanne is his attending physician." Curtis paused, his expression cloudy.
"With all the hospitals and doctors in Stonebridge, why her?" "The Wright family lives near that hospital. It's probably just a coincidence,” Jennifer explained. “But given the situation with Suzan, they might hold a grudge against Leanne." "Since she's involved now, cwithto show sgoodwill. It'll put their minds at ease and spare Leanne any trouble."
The clinic was bustling that afternoon and Leanne was too busy to even drink water. When she finally called the last patient and felt her back ache, she headed to her office to tackle the pile of paperwork waiting for her. The door banged open rudely.
Leanne looked up from her computer to see Claudine pushing the door open, a scowl etched between her brows, "You really think highly of yourself, don't you? Hardly approachable." Leanne ignored the emotional outburst, getting straight to the point, "Have the test results cback?" 2/3 09.05 3/3 Chapter 304
"It's because the results are ready that I called you, and yet here you are, acting high and mighty. Don't think just because the Richardson family backs you that you can ignore us."
"What does this have to do with the Richardson family?" Leanne m remained calm. "I'ma public hospital calma doctor, hot your family's private physician. I can't be at your beck and call." "I told you this morning. Once the results are ready, show them to me." t 09:05 X
