Chapter 466 A Condition of the Heart
“Professor, let me.”
Melanie stepped forward and grabbed the first–aid kit, but Professor Turner insisted against it.
“You’re heavily pregnant now. Although I’m made of old bones, I’m still perfectly capable of
carrying something like this.”
Melanie smiled as she put on a white doctor’s robe and followed him out of the door.
“What is that patient’s condition? Is it severe?” Melanie asked worriedly when they were in the car.
“It’s not minor,” the professor replied without looking up.
That made Melanie even more nervous. She intertwined her fingers.
“Professor, I’ve never dealt with a real patient before. You’ll have to keep a close watch and make
sure treatment is not delayed for the patient.”
“Why so little confidence in yourself?” Professor Turner looked at her with a smile. “Don’t worry.
you’ll be able to treat this condition with ease!”
Melanie heaved a sigh of relief, hoping that what Professor Turner said was true.
After driving for less than 20 minutes, the car stopped in a hotel car park. Professor Turner led her
into an elevator that brought them up to the top floor, where they entered the presidential suite.
Melanie blinked as she brisk–walked to catch up with Professor Turner, who was ahead of her.
Professor, we really can’t afford to offend anyone who stays in a presidential suite. You’ll have to give me a hint when I diagnose
him later.”
Professor Turner turned around and looked at Melanie curiously. “Youte worried about offending rich people?”
At the bedroom door, the person who brought them in entered the bedroom to report on their arrival. “President, Professor Turner
is here to see you.”
“I said there’s no need to!”
Melanie froze mid–stride outside the door the moment she heard the voice from inside.
“Are you sure you don’t need him? You better not regret it if I shoo him away!”
Professor Turner ignored what the person inside said, and walked in haughtily with his hands behind his bag. He placed his
medicine case on the table, looking displeased as he turned to say

Realization dawned upon Jeffrey as he looked at the door and saw a woman tying her hair up and buttoning her jacket. His
heart, that had been lifeless for over two months, was suddenly injected with new energy.
Professor Turner turned around and stared at Melanie. She knew he had this all planned out. Although she was caught off guard,
she couldn’t back out now. That wasn’t how she did things.
After confirming that her jacket was buttoned up properly, she walked over while keeping her gaze low.
Jeffrey had already stood up and was waiting solemnly, like a knight on a parade.
He looked at her walk into his room with her eyes looking down and her slightly swollen belly. He could see it clearly despite her
deliberate attempt at covering her belly up with an oversized jacket.
That was their child in her stomach.
He missed her so terribly!
But if not seeing him made her feel better and kept her in good spirits and health, he could hold himself back from disturbing her
peace.
Within that one glance in her direction, so many emotions rolled in his heart.
“What are you thinking about?!” Professor Turner looked displeased at Jeffrey, who was spacing out, and pointed at the chair
next to him. “Sit down and sit up straight!”
Jeffrey nodded and did as he was told.
He didn’t utter a single word of opposition before the quiet woman in front of him and sat down. obediently, keeping his spine
stiff.
He looked on as Melanie sat down opposite him, her belly looking even rounder and more swollen when she sat. The sight made
his heart Itch so badly!
“Where do you feel unwell?” Melanie kept her gaze low as she pulled out her stethoscope and placed the chest piece on
Jeffrey’s chest.
The moment he felt his hand draw near, he felt his throat constrict and his heart pound faster.
“...”

He swallowed the rest of his sentence, unable to say anything further.
This was the first time he allowed a doctor to diagnose him, and she turned out to be the doctor!
In fact, the moment his gaze landed on her, all his discomfort had vanished.
“Mrs. Morgan, President Morgan has been experiencing an irregular heartbeat, dizzy spells and great discomfort as of late,”
William replied on Jeffrey’s behalf.
Melanie stubbornly kept her gaze low, but she had already picked up on his irregular heartbeat through the stethoscope.
“Premature ventricular contractions are commonly seen. Mood swings, pressures faced, and unhealthy living habits are all
factors that can contribute to this condition.”
“Cough, cough.” Jeffrey went on to ask, “What medicine should I be taking?”
“You won’t die just yet,” Melanie said coldly and curtly. “If you don’t feel assured, you can go to the hospital and get hooked up to
a 24–hour Holter monitor.”

“The president is like this because he hasn’t been eating and sleeping much past few days,” William chimed in, wishing he could
convey how much Jeffrey missed her using the least amount of words possible.
Melanie sneered as she pulled her hand back. “There’s no end to earning money, but you only have one life. Treasure it!”
With that, she stood up. Jeffrey instinctively lifted his hand to grab her, but she dodged it agilely. picked up the medicine case,
and turned around to leave.
“I’ll send you out.”
Jeffrey chased after her and grabbed the medicine case from her. The sight of her swollen belly made his hand itch to touch her!
