Chapter 1542: Chapter 1359: She was wrong, she repented

"It’s too early for you to worry about such things."

Joanna pursed her lips, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

She really was worried too early.

"Sis, I won’t consider dating for the next few years," Jeremy said like he was making a promise, "so don’t worry."

Joanna: "I’m not worried, but if you truly meet someone that makes your heart race, feel free to date. But, that should wait until after your surgery."

"Speaking of the surgery, Jeremy went to the hospital for a checkup a few days ago. His current physical condition is not bad; I told him that after his upcoming birthday, we’d schedule the surgery."

Ashton Heath successfully shifted the conversation topic.

Speaking of Jeremy’s illness, Joanna immediately showed concern and asked, "Can Jeremy have his surgery soon?"

"Yes, his current physical condition allows for the surgery."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course, I am sure."

"Ashton."

"Hmm?"

"Are you confident that you can perform the surgery well?" As Jeremy’s surgery was fast approaching, Joanna felt uneasy again. "You haven’t held a surgical knife for a long time, right? Would your skills be rusty?"

"Should we practice beforehand or something?"

Ashton: "..."

Was his wife doubting his medical skills?

As a top expert in the field, he could tolerate being questioned by almost anyone.

But what if the person questioning him was his own wife?

Ashton showed a dark expression: "Don’t you trust me?"

"It’s not that I don’t trust you. It’s just that you haven’t held a surgical knife for years, right? Wouldn’t surgery be like other manual tasks, where if you don’t do them frequently, your skills would become rusty when you do?"

After all, it was her little brother who would be undergoing the surgery.

Joanna had to confirm in advance.

Ashton: "..."

He laughed in anger: "Baby, are you afraid that Jeremy’s surgery will be dangerous if I am the lead surgeon? Do you have that little faith in me?"

Joanna noticed Ashton’s tone was off. She turned to look at him, only to see that his face’s color looked a bit dark.

Was he...angry?

Just as she was about to say something to appease him, she heard Jeremy, in the back seat, say: "Ashton, I have confidence in you. When I went for my checkup, the hospital’s dean said that you were an excellent surgeon and never had a failed surgery. So, I believe you can cure me."

"Did you hear that?"

A certain upset man said to Joanna, "Even Jeremy trusts me, but someone still doubts me."

Joanna: "..."

Alright, she was wrong and she repented.

Arriving at Heath Villa.

When Joanna and the group entered the living room, Madam Heath had already been waiting for them.

Seeing her two grandchildren and daughter-in-law return, Madam Heath’s face bloomed into a smile, and she was beyond delighted.

"Joanna, Jeremy, come to Grandma."

Madam Heath directly ignored Ashton, waving Joanna and Jeremy over to her side.

With one hand on each of them, she looked at Joanna and said sorrowfully that she had lost weight.

Then, looking at Jeremy, she said with a heartbroken expression that he had lost weight too.

"What’s wrong with you two siblings? You are always giving people cause for concern. Haven’t you been eating properly?"

"It’s been such a short time since we last met, and you both lost so much weight."

Jeremy smiled warmly and said, "Grandma, I think it’s just your imagination. I weighed myself a couple of days ago, and it’s the same as before."

"Exactly, Grandma, you must be imagining things," Joanna added, "That’s why every time you see us, you think we’ve lost weight.
