Chapter 508 Next Time We Meet?
Gerald said, "Okay, you're not spreading it widely, you're spreading it in a small circle."
"Dad!" Ulysses said, "If you keep talking, I'll tell Grandma!"
"I won't say anymore," Gerald said. "Have you been waiting outside for a long time?"
"Dad, you finally have a girlfriend, of course, I have to support you. No matter how long I have to wait, it's fine!" Ulysses said sensibly. "Dad, let me tell you, be nicer to her, don't be so cold, or you'll scare her away."
"You know that?" Gerald looked at him. "What, so experienced, huh?"
"I haven't experienced it, but haven't I seen it? Look at how Uncle Stuart treats Aunt Josephine."
Gerald said, "That's true."
At this moment, Kathy also got through to Josephine on the phone.
Josephine was waiting, but she didn't expect to wait so long.
She quickly answered, "Kathy, did you go see Gerald?"
Kathy walked out of the hospital, still feeling a bit unreal.
She even wanted to go back and take another look at Gerald, to ask him if they were really a couple now.
Seeing she wasn't speaking, Josephine asked again, "Is everything okay? Gerald didn't say anything, did he? Oh, even if he did, don't take it seriously, he's always so cold."
"No, it's not that," Kathy quickly said. "Josephine, Gerald said, he said..."
"What did he say?" Josephine was anxious. "You're killing me with suspense."
Kathy didn't plan to hide it from Josephine. She said, "Gerald said we should try dating."
"Gerald... wait, what did he say!" Josephine was shocked.
Kathy said, "He said he wants me to be his girlfriend."
Josephine's first reaction was that Gerald must be delirious from the fever.
He was clearly so resistant before; how could he suddenly say something like this?
She asked, "Did he really say that? He..."
She asked, but then felt it was impolite, as if she was doubting Kathy.
But Kathy said, "We had the same reaction, I couldn't believe it either. Even though I stayed with him for a long time, I still couldn't believe it. Josephine, I feel like I'm dreaming. Can you ask him for me? I always feel like he's going to change his mind any moment."
"No way!" Josephine quickly said. "Gerald isn't the type to go back on his word. If he said it, he must have thought it through!"
"But I still feel it's unreal," Kathy said. "He didn't even reply to my messages before, how could he suddenly say this?"
Josephine didn't know either.
She said, "Don't worry, I'll call him now and ask."
Kathy said, "Then, let me know after you call him."
"Okay."
After hanging up, Josephine immediately called Gerald.
Gerald looked at his phone and said to Ulysses, "Your spreading effect is starting to work."
Ulysses hummed beside him.
Gerald answered the phone, "Josephine."
"Gerald, how are you now? Has your fever gone down?"
Gerald felt somewhat comforted, at least she didn't start gossiping right away.
She still cared about his health.
He smiled, "Much better, the fever has gone down."
Ulysses said beside him, "It's down now, but the doctor said it might come back tonight."
Josephine immediately worried, "Then I'll have Stuart go take care of you, I'm afraid Ulysses won't know what to do."
"It's fine," Gerald said. "Didn't you already explain everything to him? Besides, there are doctors in the hospital, don't worry."
Josephine knew that pneumonia fever could sometimes come back.
She gave a few more instructions, then asked, "Gerald, what's going on with you and Kathy?"
"You called her?"
"Yes, Gerald, what's going on with you? Let me tell you, Kathy is my friend. If you don't like her, just ignore her; she won't mind. But you, you can't play with her!"
"Do I have time to play with others?" Gerald said. "Since I said it, I meant it."
"But..." Josephine couldn't understand. "Didn't you say before that you didn't have time for a relationship, no energy, no interest?"
"You said it yourself, that was before," Gerald said. "Isn't fate a wonderful thing?"
"So, you like Kathy?"
Gerald said, "Maybe not like yet, but I have a good impression of her."
"That's great!" Josephine was overjoyed. "Gerald, Kathy is really nice, you'll see when you get to know her. By the way, Gerald, since you want to date her, treat her well. She's much younger than you, and she's in great condition, you're really lucky to be with her!"
Gerald laughed, "I know. But I'm not bad either, right?"
"Of course you're great, otherwise I wouldn't have set you two up!" Josephine said. "But girls are meant to be pampered, especially with your personality, I'm afraid you'll neglect her. No matter how busy you are, you can't ignore her, got it?"
"I know," Gerald said. "Don't worry, since I agreed, I'll do my best."
"That's good," Josephine said. "Kathy is so happy, she feels like she's dreaming. Gerald, she really likes you."
Gerald said, "I know."
"Take good care of her. By the way, is Ulysses okay?"
"He's fine, he met Kathy and has a good impression of her."
"They met?" Josephine was delighted. "That's good, Kathy has a good personality, she'll definitely be a good stepmother!"
Gerald smiled.
Although he was a responsible man, he hadn't thought about marriage yet.
Josephine was still worried about his health, gave a lot of instructions, and then hung up.
Then, she started chatting with Kathy again.
After chatting for a long time, Kathy finally confirmed that she was really Gerald's girlfriend now.
Stuart was also surprised to hear the news. "Gerald finally figured it out?"
"Mainly because Kathy is charming!" Josephine was a bit proud. "I set them up!"
"Right, if they get married, they'll give you a gift."
"No need for a gift, I just hope Gerald has someone by his side."
"Yes, hope they do well," Stuart said.
Gerald stayed in the hospital for five days, then was discharged.
During his hospital stay, Kathy visited twice.
She wanted to go every day to take care of him, but she was busy, and she felt a bit uneasy when facing Gerald.
But she thought, once Gerald was discharged, who knew when they would meet next.
