All Chapters of Ninety-Nine Wishes, One Broken Marriage: Chapter 401 - Chapter 410

Jeremy furrowed his brow and was about to hurry inside.However, just as he reached for the door, a familiar voice rang out."What are you doing lying in a hospital bed? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were the patient! Get up!"The familiar and icy tone made Jeremy pause.Wasn't that Camilla's voice?"Achoo! I've got a cold, too. What's wrong with me lying down?"A deliberately exaggerated sneeze was followed by a lazy, teasing voice.Jeremy realized that it was Jane.The two of them began arguing again.After waiting a while, Jeremy finally knocked on the door.The argument suddenly died down.Only then did Jeremy push open the door and step inside.The first thing he saw was Camilla standing beside the bed. Her face was cold, and her eyes were blazing with anger.The moment she realized it was him, she swallowed her irritation and quickly explained, "I only asked her to move over and make some room for you, since you're the patient. But she flat-out refuse

He had been carrying that guilt for more than a decade.How much pain must he have been in all those years?Jane's eyes reddened. She slowly reached out, cradled the back of his head, and pulled him deep into her embrace."I was wrong. I shouldn't have said that. I'll make it up to you, okay? From now on, no one will ever separate us again."She held him tightly, as though she wanted to pull him into her very being.However, soon, Jeremy began to squirm.Seeing this, Jane's eyes grew misty, and her voice lowered."You still can't forgive me? I'll give you anything, as long as you…""That's not it..."Jeremy's muffled voice came out in broken gasps."Jane, your arm is pressing on my wound. It hurts…"Jane froze when she heard that. Then, she hurriedly let go.Only then could Jeremy finally catch his breath.After bearing with the pain, he let out a few belated coughs."I'm going to ask a nurse to adjust my splint. It shifted a little."With that, Jeremy got up to leave.

"But back then, Jeremy and I were struggling to make ends meet. He spent day and night doing research, while I went around negotiating deals and drinking for business, trying to earn every extra penny I could. But with my father constantly holding us back, making money was nearly impossible."Camilla continued, "In the end, Dad finally relented. He promised that if I went back to look after Zachary and fulfilled his wishes, he'd stop interfering with us and leave the company in Jeremy's and my hands."Her voice grew hoarse as she spoke."I agreed."Camilla paused to collect herself. Once she calmed down, she continued, "I had always had a good impression of Zachary. I remembered him as the cheerful and sunny boy next door. But his illness had left him insecure, and he started doing things he usually wouldn't. "There are plenty of cases like that in clinical practice. Dr. Landry told me that those living around a patient in that situation need to give them extra care and attention

Jeremy left Albert's office carrying a blue-and-white set of nurse's scrubs.When he returned to his room and opened the door, he found Jane cleaning.She was wearing a tight pink T-shirt and high-waisted jeans. As she bent forward slightly, the fabric hugged her curves, accentuating her full figure.Sweat trickled down her smooth cheeks and onto her delicate collarbone.A faint fragrance lingered in the air.The girlish outfit gave her a surprisingly mature allure.Jane wiped the sweat from her cheek, straightened up, and smiled toward him at the doorway."Jem, you're back!"Jeremy nodded and handed her the scrubs."I just had these washed. Change into them for now. I'll have a courier bring you some more suitable outfits."Jane set the broom aside and twirled around once."Don't you like how I look? I wore your jacket when I went out earlier. Nobody could see anything."Jeremy didn't know what to do with her.Even after all these years apart, she still loved teasing him.

When Camilla returned to Solara Gardens, she was carrying a bag of groceries.She walked into the kitchen, set the groceries on the marble countertop, and glanced at her phone again.Her expression was blank as she spoke in an icy voice."Who do you think you are, talking to me like that? If it weren't for Jeremy, do you think I'd even listen to you?"She closed the messaging app with a cold swipe and, for the first time in days, reopened the video she had saved earlier.It was a tutorial for braised beef.She had chosen the dish because she remembered Jeremy ordering it all the time at the college cafeteria.Moreover, she simply couldn't accept how badly she had messed it up the last time!Camilla had always been fiercely competitive. There was no way she would let herself fail at something like this.She hit play and followed the instructions step by step.When the video ended, her brows drew together in a deep frown."I followed these exact steps last time, too. Why did i
