If you can glare at us, why aren’t you glaring at Nina?
You’re only mean to us.
Nicole was surprised to find out that Stephen had donated a lot of blood to her.
“You have donated your blood to me? Thank you.”
“Don’t worry about it. That’s what I should do.”
I’m just fulfilling my responsibility as your father.
His words sounded ear-piercing to Evan. A man is donating blood to a woman without batting an eye about it.
Then he says it’s something he should do. I refuse to believe that he’s something else in mind.
“That’s right. He gave you his blood. I’ll find a way to return the favor. Don’t worry.”
Stephen could hear what Evan was implying.
He turned to give him a small smile. “I don’t need anything in return. I just want to make sure she’s safe and sound.”
This is what Rosalie would want too.
Evan still felt uncomfortable with Stephen’s words.
Once again, he tried to evict the other man.
“I’ll take good care of my wife. Please bring these gifts back.”
Stephen sensed Evan did not welcome him, but he thought it was because Nicole had just woken up, and he was worried.
That’s right. She’s still weak. She has to rest well.
“I’ll take my leave then.” After reminding Nicole to rest well, Stephen turned to leave.
Before he stepped out of the room, he assigned four bodyguards to guard the room secretly and protect Nicole.
Nicole gazed at Evan, who had a scowl on his face. “Do you have something against Sir Musgrave?”
Evan looked back at her, but he was silent.
“Why were you acting in that way to him? He donated blood to me. You should thank him instead.”
Thank him?
“This is my friendliest attitude for him.”
A tinge of silent distress was hidden in his voice.
He’s trying to please my wife in broad daylight, and it is clear that he’s interested in her.
When Evan saw her eyes sweeping across the room, he instantly knew what she was looking for.
He had not thrown away Stephen’s gifts. He only asked someone to deal with it.
After all, those had to be cooked before they could be consumed. Cooking them in the hospital would be very inconvenient, so he had sent his trusted subordinate to take them away for cooking before sending them back.
But he was not very happy with Nicole’s attitude.
So she’s not interested in eating because she doesn’t see any signs of Sir Musgrave’s gift?
After standing still for a while, he turned to say to John, “Go. Buy ‘anything’ for her to eat.”
“Huh?”
John could not believe what he heard that he thought he got it wrong.
He stared at Evan with wide eyes. “Mr. Seet, what did you just ask me to buy?”
“Buy ‘anything’!” Evan repeated loudly.
At that, he turned back to Nicole. “When he comes back with ‘anything’, you’ll eat it.”
Nicole glared at him as rage took over every cell in her body. She felt the urge to scream. Where’s the butcher’s knife Where is it?
At their silent confrontation, John just stood still and looked puzzled.
