Chapter 253 A Good Match

Thanks to Alisa and Julian's banter, my mood improved significantly.

I no longer had to work now. Every day, I'd scroll through my phone while waiting for my injections and meals. Life was pretty great. Plus, I hadn't had a vacation for so long. So, I spent the next few days feeling completely relaxed. Alisa would drop by to bring me nutrient supplements. She kept claiming that I was too skinny.

Julian would always appear whenever Alisa did. He wanted to make sure that she wasn't secretly goading me to work.

After that, Jill explained to me that Julian had found out about Alisa seducing Leonard in the past. He had a feeling that Alisa was up to no good, hence the constant monitoring.

My health was incredibly poor right now. One Amelia was enough to make my life hell. Julian was worried that I'd suffer from an emotional breakdown if another one of Leonard's mistresses were to appear in front of me.

No matter how much I tried to explain to Julian, he continued to show up from time to time whenever Alisa was around. He was bent on stopping me from taking any work.

Alisa kept herself busy, too. She alternated between negotiating the contract termination with Harmon Group and taking care of me.

In fact, she completely dropped her guard in front of me. Only then did I realize that she was actually an heiress who couldn't care less about her own appearance.

Today, Alisa showed up in a pair of shorts and sandals. Her hair was put up in a messy bun, and she even wore a pair of glasses with large black frames. She brought a bag of sandwiches with her.

"Do you know that business for the food truck outside the hospital is booming? I had lined up outside the food truck for two hours just to buy their sandwiches which were packed with meat!"

"Eva can't have greasy food. The meat fillings are too greasy for her."

Julian entered the ward at that moment. The first thing he did was glare at Alisa.

There was one time when Alisa had brought me chili dogs. After eating one, I spent the day vomiting my guts out. Since then, Julian had been keeping a close eye on her.

Alisa bit into the sandwich angrily. "The sandwiches are for myself!"

Truth be told, I was starting to crave the sandwiches when I smelled the scent. But now, I was extremely intimidated by Julian. Besides, diarrhea and vomiting would weaken me even more. I dared not try the food outside my own diet. Julian watched as Alisa devoured two sandwiches in one go. By then, she was too full, so she stuffed the rest of the sandwich bag into his hands.

"Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Pope! This is a reward for you!"

Julian wrapped a tissue around the oily bag of sandwiches. "I'll feed them to the strays later. They love eating sandwiches made by the food truck."

"Hmph! I'll treat it as my act of kindness for the day!"

Alisa rolled her eyes at Julian before pulling out a notebook from her bag. "I found this notebook when I was clearing out Keeran's things. I think it has something to do with your grandma's designs.

"It's a waste of time for you to remain bedridden without doing anything. You might as well take a look at the designs. Since the notebook is also filled with design sketches, it's basically the same thing for you, right?"

The notebook's pages looked quite yellowed. It was filled with drafts of jewelry designs. I could tell that the sketches primarily came from sudden strokes of inspiration. However, they remained incomplete.

Alisa huddled over to look at the notebook too. "Hey, do you think design runs in your

bloodline? It seems that your love for design is hereditary. Why don't you open a workshop of

your own in the future? It doesn't matter what sort of design you do-be it architecture of

jewelry, they're all related to design at the end of the day."

I shook my head. "Those two are completely different fields."

"What if I buy a few books related to jewelry design? Maybe you can try picking up some skills on your own!"ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Alisa looked at me eagerly. "Recently, I read a novel. There was a character who was a jewelry designer, so her family could get their hands on the best jewels at the first availability. They could even get customized jewelry!" Then, she stretched her hand out to me and wiggled her fingers. "My fingers are looking awfully bare here, Eva."

I just gazed at her, completely speechless. "Can't you get your future husband to buy you a ring?"

"I can do that, but a ring designed by my own cousin is even more significant than that. If you were to gift me a ruby ring for free..."

Julian pushed Alisa's head away immediately. "The psychiatric department is on the top floor."

I just smiled while looking at Julian and Alisa. Suddenly, I had a feeling that they made a good

match.

If they were to get into a relationship....

The thought of being verbally assaulted by Julian and Alisa made me shake my head violently in order to dispel that ridiculous thought.

They hung out around me the most. Wouldn't that mean I'd be their first target whenever they wanted to lash out at someone?
