James spoke with great sincerity.
And he was about to pass out when he saw the woman under him was blinking her big eyes with an irresolute expression.
Suddenly, there were two sounds of clapping.
They turned their heads at once and saw Will and Nolan standing at the door.
Will was leaning against the door frame clapping, and Nolan was recording.
“Miss Kara, it’s rare for Mr. James to confess. I’ve recorded it. You can check on it later.” Nolan said.
James and Kara didn’t respond.
“Go get me a glass of water,” James said as he fell to the side, feeling a headache.
“OK.”
Kara obediently got off the bed and went to pour him a glass of water.
She handed the water to him. But he didn’t take it immediately.
Kara stared at him angrily. He hadn’t broken his hands, why couldn’t he drink it himself?
“It’s your duty to serve me because you gave me the headache!” He said it as a matter of course.
Kara tightened her grip on the cup. She’s the one who’s having a headache now.
She slammed the cup on the table and said sarcastically, “Whatever!”
Will and Nolan stood by, not daring to interrupt.
Very well. Now she was no longer the little girl who did what he said but he had to put up with it because he had made a habit of it.
He patted his chest and looked very uncomfortable with his beautiful brows tightly knitting together.
“Don’t be angry, I’ll feed you.”
When Kara saw him frown, her little heart clenched. She quickly helped him up and carefully fed him water.
Will and Nolan still didn’t speak.
A man pretending to be sick, shameful!
After drinking a cup of water, James’ breathing finally calmed down. He then gave Will a glance.
Will received his gaze and said to Kara, “Kara, you should be tired after taking care of him. Let Nolan send you back to eat something and have a good sleep, and you can bring him lunch later.”
Kara nodded. She was really tired after worrying about him for the whole night.
“Have a good rest. I will be back soon.”
James nodded.
After Kara left the ward, Will walked to the bed and checked on him.
“Am I OK?”
“A 20-year illness will not worsen too badly,” Will said sarcastically.
James thought he’s right. His expression was indifferent, “Will it affect my movements?”
“Which aspect are you referring to?”
Will was deliberately teasing him when they had just shown their affection right before his eyes.
James glanced at him and said, “If you keep talking nonsense, I would kick your ass.”
“Well. Does your girl know you’re so tough?”
Will took a few steps back, the stethoscope in his hand still somewhat guarded against him.
…
James wanted to hit someone.
Will had enough, and his face returned to a serious look.
“You have been too tired recently, working too much and eating irregularly. Even a robot can’t handle it.”
That was that this fainting had nothing to do with his previous illness, James breathed a sigh of relief.
“But don’t be happy too early. This is a chronic illness. You should treat it as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be even more terrible situations in the future.” Will warned.
“Treatment?” James let out a cold laugh.
“How do I treat it? After ten years of treatment, I almost got anorexia. If I continue to treat it, I might not even be able to survive.”
Will was helpless, too. It was gonna be a long and winding road for the whole process because there was no suitable treatment for this mental illness.
“Don’t worry too much. Didn’t you say last time that you tasted something when you ate with Kara?”
…
James recalled that it seemed that he had a faintly sweet taste when Kara had just finished her dessert and kissed him.
But after that, his tongue began to go numb, making him feel uncomfortable and disgusting.
Nolan sent Kara back to the villa and told Libby and Mason some words, then immediately back to the hospital.
“Tell me about it.”
Nolan felt his scalp tingle when he heard James’ question.
“Miss Kara suddenly called me yesterday morning and said that she was looking for you. When she came over, she was in a good mood. I was not sure what had happened in the office, but she ran out crying soon after.”
James recalled the situation at that time. Recently, his workload had been very heavy. He had originally wanted to lie on the sofa and rest for a while. When he opened his eyes, he saw Jenny’s face.
He carefully analyzed that Jenny was probably going to kiss him secretly, but Kara saw it.
Kara stood and did not see clearly that he was asleep, causing her to misunderstand that the two were kissing, so she was so angry.
After figuring out the situation, James froze.
It was no wonder that Kara would be angry. He’d be ready to kill if he saw her getting close to another man, let alone kissing.
“Where is Jenny?”
“She should be at the company. Do you need me to call her over?”
“Why did you call her over?” James raised his eyebrows and glanced at him.
“To explain…”
If he didn’t let Jenny explain, how could he make everything clear?
“No need!”
James firmly denied this decision.
…
Nolan lowered his head and thought, “It was no wonder that Mr. James would be pushed down by a woman.
If that had been him, he would want to beat his boyfriend to death just by watching him kiss another woman!
No.
Nolan quickly shook his head and silently warned himself that he was looking for cute girls, not rough guys!
When Kara brought lunch to the hospital, James was sleeping.
She moved lightly, put down the lunch box, and tiptoed to the bedside.
The man’s eyes were closed with his long black lashes stretched forward. His usually cold lower jaw was now a little weak and had some stubble.
Suddenly thinking of his confession to her, she felt sweet in her heart and touched his stubble.
“Little fool, you’re taking advantage of me again. Do you confess?”
Her little hand was too soft and rubbed against his lower jaw, making it a little itchy.
He grabbed her hand, placed it to his lips, and kissed it before opening his eyes.
Kara wanted to dodge, but her reaction was not as fast as his, and seeing him kiss her little hand, her cheeks flushed.
“James, I just went to the toilet and didn’t wash my hands.”
…
James shook off her hand in disgust.
While Kara was pleased, James got up and carried her to the bed.
“Let me see if you’re lazy and not brushing your teeth.”
“James…”
Then she was thrown on the bed and before she could avoid it, her lips were blocked.
He didn’t let go of her until the kiss made her breath unstable, then he put his arms on her sides.
“Now have you found out that I was touched?”
…
She was gasping for breath, but at these words, she gave him a dirty look and got up to leave.
James had expected that she would escape and had already prepared himself for it. His arm reached down to her waist and hugged her tightly.
“Kara, do you still remember that you suspect that Kathleen’s child is mine?”
…
Kara pursed her lips. Did this man start digging up history?
“You didn’t go through any investigation, nor did you ask me. It was just a random remark from someone you didn’t know, and your emotions got out of control.
“Kara, I asked you last time. In your heart, am I a playboy?”
His questioning was very difficult. Kara didn’t know how to respond. She could only stare at him blankly, waiting for his next words.
