My Super Sassy Dad: Stop Running Away, Mrs. Quinn!-Chapter 485: Was He Provoked?

Suddenly, she opened her eyes and stared at the man above her, asking softly, "Jared, are you sure I won’t get pregnant?"

Jared lowered his gaze and met her eyes, which showed no sign of sleepiness. It was clear that he somewhat understood why she was asking.

She was worried about getting pregnant.

"No, you won’t," Jared answered very confidently.

"Why not?"

Jared showed her his arm, revealing a new needle mark, "I get an injection before we sleep together."

It’s a contraceptive injection, more effective than pills, with almost no chance of pregnancy, that’s why he’s assured when they are intimate.

Melody stared at the still-red needle mark on his arm, "Then wasn’t today’s injection wasted since I’m not feeling well?"

"Doesn’t matter."

"I could just take contraceptive pills," Melody said earnestly, knowing that injections are harder on the body than pills.

"Taking too many pills is bad for you, no need to take them."

Melody turned her body, resting her head on his chest, thinking gloomily, impossible... impossible...

Just as she was about to fall asleep, Jared’s phone rang, it was a call from the Quinn Family estate.

"Young master, the old master has had an episode. He’s already been taken to our family’s private hospital, you need to come quickly," the voice of the estate’s butler came through the phone.

Jared’s stern brows furrowed slightly, almost imperceptibly.

"Young master, it’s true, the old master was acting a bit off this afternoon. I suggested we get the doctor to check on him, but he said he was tired and wanted to sleep a bit before going to the hospital. But he never woke up from that sleep, so I had the doctor come immediately."

Jared hung up the phone, immediately grabbed his suit and prepared to leave.

"Jared, is something wrong with Grandpa?"

Melody had heard bits of the conversation when Jared answered the phone, but she wasn’t sure.

"Grandpa had a medical episode, I’m heading over now, you stay home and rest."

"I want to go," Melody was already off the bed, barefoot, about to walk outside.

Jared’s eyebrows twitched; he quickly found her shoes and helped Melody put them on, grabbing her coat and leading her downstairs.

At the hospital.

When Melody and Jared arrived, the old master was still in the operating room.

Mrs. Quinn and the butler were also waiting outside.

"Jared, you’re here," Mrs. Quinn walked over in a panic; she was terrified. No one expected the old master would suddenly fall into a sleep he wouldn’t wake from, and that it would be this severe.

"Don’t worry," Jared comforted Mrs. Quinn, "Has Grandpa been under any stress recently?"

The old master’s illness had been longstanding, with no cure yet, and he also had heart problems, which meant he couldn’t take any stress. That’s why he lived alone in the estate.

"Not that I’ve noticed, these past few days, he’s just been at home with Timmy, occasionally visiting the park. With the butler accompanying him, nothing should have happened. Who would have thought something like this would happen in the middle of the night?"

She was scared to death.

"Beep," the door to the operating room opened and a doctor came out.

"Doctor, doctor, how is he now? Is it serious?" Mrs. Quinn immediately spoke, still anxious.

"Mr. Quinn," the doctor avoided Mrs. Quinn, his expression serious, "Please come with me to the office."

"I’m going too," Melody immediately grabbed Jared’s large hand.
