Chapter 229 Not the Cat's Paw Any More

Rhys looked playful and Martha wasn't sure if he meant it or not. All at once, things got weird.

"Have a good rest. I'm going back to Jimmy," Martha stood up and said.

Saying it, she left Rhys' ward.

She knitted her eyebrows, looked gloomy and was lost in thought.

Rhys had always wanted to use her to get back at Stefan. It was hardly possible that he would fall in love with her.

However, the moment he decided to save Jimmy, she felt there was no set-up or revenge. All she could feel was that he didn't want her to be in despair and in pain.

In the ward, Rhys watched Martha leaving and stopped smiling. Even his eyes looked less bright.

He closed his eyes and couldn't stop thinking of her face.

He saw Martha waiting by his bed the moment he woke up and opened his eyes.

At that very moment, Rhys did have a crush on her.

It had been long since he had the feeling of being concerned about.

He hadn't felt like that since his mother passed away.

He thought it over. Instead of saying he had a crush on her, he would rather say Martha was no longer a cat's paw to him earlier than he knew. Jane got out of the hotel and got a call from Martha.

"Jimmy's surgery was a success. He's in the observation period now. He'll be fine."

Jane sighed with relief to hear the good news. She stood outside the hotel and laughed out, "Oh, that's great! I'm leaving for the hospital now."

Jane hung up the phone and texted her master. She looked back at the hotel and felt like crying. He must be very happy if he knew Martha and Jimmy had made it through.

Regarding herself... Jane seemed to have thought of something and looked down.

To him, she was nothing but a cat's paw. She nearly crossed the line that night.

At last, he pushed her away and told her to know her position. He was right that she must know her position and stop dreaming.

A couple of hours later, Jimmy still showed no signs of waking up.

Martha had slept for only two hours the last night and she was too sleepy to hold on. Then she kept rubbing her eyes to stay awake.

She glimpsed at Stefan and found he also looked tired and worried.

Solomon and Eden had dropped by during Jimmy's observation period, and surely they came for company issues.

Stefan had reminded them of what to do on the phone, but he still had to sign some of the documents personally.

"Go back to have some sleep. I'm here. You don't have to do this," said Martha.

Those words "you don't have to this" bothered him. It sounded like Jimmy was only her son and it was her own business, which had nothing to do with him.

"I can't leave like that. And I've promised Jimmy that he can see me when he wakes up."

Martha was lost for words and didn't bother to argue with a stubborn guy like him.

She decided to ignore Stefan. Then she saw Rupert coming again in another shirt.

"Why not have some sleep?" said Martha.

Rupert had been waiting since the surgery began. It took Martha great effort to convince him to go home and catch some sleep, but he was back here soon enough. Rupert smiled, glanced at Stefan out of the corner of his eyes and said, "I just can't sleep with Jimmy on mind."

Martha was moved and smiled at him.

Both Stefan and Rupert wanted to stay for Jimmy but Martha's attitudes towards them were totally different. Stefan narrowed his eyes and glared at Rupert coldly.
