Chapter 181 Both Close And Distant
"Take it easy. It's just that Jimmy wants to see you."
Martha's faint voice made Stefan stiffen.
He hesitated, unable to believe what he had heard.
He gripped the phone tightly.
Did Jimmy want to see him?
He was afraid that he heard it wrong.
Before he could speak again, Martha hung up the phone.
It took Stefan a long time to come to himself, and it was the first time that his heart had been palpitating
with disbelief.
Eden could tell from Stefan's expression that he was surprised but joyful.
He teased with a chuckle, "Congratulations, this day finally comes."
...
At the Doyle Group.
After Martha hung up the phone, she lowered her head, and her eyes were somewhat puzzled.
She couldn't understand why Jimmy suddenly wanted to see Stefan...
She was curious about what Jimmy felt when he said he wanted to see Stefan.
But since that was what he wanted, she wouldn't say no.
She respected Jimmy's decision.
Martha hid her emotions. In the afternoon, after a few words with Jane, she left the company.novelbin
...
In the evening, Martha came to Jimmy's ward.
When she arrived, Stefan hadn't come yet. Jimmy was alone in the room sitting on the hospital bed,
fiddling with the toys.
Martha's heart ached when she saw that.
In those years abroad, to get herself back on track as soon as possible, she worked hard. Jimmy
stayed in the hospital alone for most of the time.
At that time, he spent his time playing with himself, just like what he was doing now.
But a four-year-old child should be jolly and active.
Martha pursed her lips and called softly, "Jimmy."
When Jimmy heard her voice, his eyes lit up. He turned to look at her, "Mommy, you're here."
Martha walked over with a smile and rubbed the bangs on Jimmy's forehead.
She wanted to ask why he suddenly called her and said that he wanted to see Stefan.
But before she could speak, someone knocked on the door.
Stefan arrived.
His husky voice with a hint of excitement came from outside the door...
"May I come in?"
Martha turned to look at Jimmy, letting him decide.
Jimmy nodded.
Martha smiled faintly, walked over, and opened the door.
Looking at the man standing outside the door, she nodded slightly. "Come in."
The moment Stefan opened the door, his gaze was fixed on the child sitting on the hospital bed.
It was the first time his heart had beaten so fast.
He no longer saw any sign of dislike on Jimmy's face.
It seemed that Jimmy was really willing to see him.
Seeing that Stefan stood rooted to the spot, Martha urged, "Come in, or I'll close the door."
Stefan came back to his senses upon hearing this sentence.
He walked into the ward with the toys he bought.
Only then did Martha notice that he even bought toys.
But Jimmy had those toys already.
Stefan looked at Jimmy's innocent big eyes and didn't know what to say for a moment.
He could only hand the toys to Jimmy, hoping that he would like them.
His voice trembled slightly, "I bought those for you, I wonder if you like them."
Jimmy's eyes lit up. Martha saw a smile flit across his face.
But a moment later, Jimmy hid his emotions again. He nodded obediently and said politely, "Thank you.
"
Jimmy's short answer made Stefan's mind full of thoughts in an instant.
Before coming here, he had thought a lot about what to say or do when meeting the child.
But he never thought Jimmy's opening line would be that simple.
It showed that Jimmy tried to get close to him yet in a polite manner.
But it didn't matter, as long as he can see Jimmy so close...
Sweat broke out on Stefan's palms. After a long time, he asked hoarsely and undertone, "Jimmy, are
you willing to forgive me?"
Jimmy looked up at Stefan, shook his head, and answered directly, "No."
He simply wanted to...
He simply wanted to see Stefan. That didn't mean he had forgiven Stefan.
After Jimmy said this, he lowered his head and opened the toy bag. He had no intention of calling
Stefan "daddy".
