After Kara saw Corey, James noticed that Corey couldn’t leave him.
Kara would often wake up in the middle of the night and look for James everywhere. If she did not see him, her expression would be very ugly as if she had encountered a tribulation.
Whenever James asked Kara what was going on, Kara would say that she had a nightmare, but she said nothing about her nightmare.
He guessed that she must have kept something from him. If Corey told Kara that they were probably cousins, how sad would she be?
The marriage was not allowed by the law, and even the child she was carrying might not be healthy.
What a cruel fact.
James felt ached for the spoiled girl.
“Corey, no matter what your purpose is, I will not let you take her away,” James warned.
Corey smiled faintly. Since James didn’t open the small bag, Corey would open it in person. He opened the bag and took out a wooden box.
A pair of jade bracelets were in it.
“You haven’t been investigating this pair of jade bracelets. Although I don’t know your purpose, the jade bracelets fit Corey well. It’s a birthday gift for her.”
James frowned and didn’t take it.
“Why didn’t you give it to her in person?”
“James, I know that you are good to her. I am also very grateful that you took good care of her.”
Corey thought of Kara’s complaints. He suddenly showed up in her life and wanted to take her away. He was somewhat unreasonable.
So for her sake, Corey decided to compromise.
“You should know Kara’s situation better than me. You found Will to be her doctor. Will is young and promising. His medical skills are great.
“But after all, he has never treated such a disease, so he didn’t know where to start.
“What if he made a mistake? Would you dare to bet her life on it?”
James clenched his fists, and his expression was dark.
James would not joke about Kara’s health.
“So, you want to take her away to treat her?”
“This is one of the reasons.” Corey thought about it and patiently explained.
“There is another reason. You and Kara shouldn’t be together at all.”
“Why is that?
“We are cousins, but so what?”
“James, can you stop being so selfish?” Corey sneered.
James didn’t know what to say.
James gritted his teeth. This news shocked him so much. He had no time to think about it at all. There was only one thought in his mind.
Kara couldn’t leave him!
“I won’t force you. I will give you time to think about it, but you have to think carefully. I can wait, but Corey can’t wait.”
Corey had said all that he needed to say. He got up and adjusted his coat, ready to leave.
“How confident are you in curing her?” James asked in a cold voice.
“I have seen Veronica’s disease. The success rate is at least 60 percent.” Corey was honest.
It was still risky.
“If you really want to be good to my wife, you shouldn’t see her!” James said with a cold expression.
Corey raised his eyebrows.
It was not up to him.
Corey walked out, and when he walked to the door, he suddenly thought of the situation last night.
“James, for Corey’s safety, you should hire several bodyguards to protect her. Someone is targeting her.”
“Who is it?”
James suddenly stood up. He also had this feeling these past few days, but he couldn’t find any clues. It was just a guess.
“I’m also investigating who the other party is. I can only tell you that someone is targeting her body.”
James took the jade bracelets back to the office. Thinking about Corey’s words, he couldn’t calm down.
Why did Corey deliberately emphasize that someone was targeting Kara’s body?
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. He called John and asked Nolan to investigate.
After that, he left a message to Silence and asked him to investigate as well.
“James, are you afraid?” Silence asked.
“What am I afraid of? I am just curious about who I have pissed off. I don’t know who wants to seek revenge on her.” James sneered in disdain.
“Don’t worry.” Silence snorted, “I’ll send you a message once I find out.”
Silence had connections in the army, and it was not a bad thing to have his help when something happened.
“Silence.”
Suddenly, James said and licked his lips.
“If you find that the one you like is your cousin, what will you do?”
Silence was stunned for a while before saying coldly.
“Leave her!”
James was silent for a long time. The veins on the back of his hand that was holding his phone were budging and his slender fingers turned pale.
“What if you can’t leave her?”
“Then I’ll push her away!”
James was lost for words.
“How do you know that I like my cousin?”
Suddenly, Silence asked curiously.
Was it so obvious?
James was speechless.
As expected, they were brothers. Their preferences were so similar. James rubbed his eyebrows and hung up the phone.
Should he push her away?
James couldn’t bear to leave Kara.
Kara was so spoiled by his side. If James pushed her away, she would cry.
When James saw Kara cry, he would feel heartbroken and want to dote on her. How could he leave her?
…
Kara was not in a good mood at school.
The closer she was to James, the more fearful she was. She was always afraid that this was her dream. After she woke up, she would fall into a terrifying abyss.
When Kara was reading, she was always absent-minded. When she was in class, she always blinked her big eyes and stared at the blackboard in a daze.
Suddenly, Liz hit Kara’s arm and Kara withdrew her thoughts. Kara looked at Liz in surprise.
“Kara, Rita is speaking to you.”
Kara blinked. Why did Rita speak to her?
“Kara, are you being kept by someone?”
Rita was gloating.
Kara was stunned.
She stared at Rita with her big eyes in confusion.
“You don’t answer me. It means that you admit it. Kara, you are a university student. How can you do such a shameful thing?
“If you need money, you can borrow some from your classmates. It’s so pathetic to do such lowly things.” Rita mocked her.
Liz frowned. Rita crossed the line. She said such harsh words.
“Rita, you have no proof. How can you slander Kara? You are so despicable!”
“Despicable!” Hazel was also angry.
“You two are despicable. You speak for such a lowly woman because of her money. You are not only despicable but also pathetic!” Rita retorted.
Liz and Hazel looked at each other with ugly expressions.
Hazel was so angry that she almost jumped up, but she couldn’t say anything and could only use her hands to gesture.
“Hazel, if you can’t speak, then sit tight. What are you trying to do? You can’t even speak properly. What are you doing here? How did you enter our university?”
Rita proudly crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at Hazel with disdain.
Whenever Hazel spoke, she couldn’t finish her words, which was annoying.
“Liz, you want evidence. Fine! Look at Kara’s sportswear. It is the latest model, which is worth over 90 thousand dollars. Look at the love bites on her wrists and neck.”
Rita pulled open Kara’s sports jacket, revealing the love bites on Kara’s neck and wrists.
“She must have done something to curry favor with a rich man to make him happy, so he gave her a million!”
Kara was so angry that she laughed.
It was ridiculous.
