Chapter 161 Getting Closer
After more than an hour, Byron stopped. The off-road vehicle quieted down.
Byron was fully dressed again.
He buttoned up the shirt neatly and put on the suit jacket and leather shoes. He looked solemn and cold at this time, as if the man who lost control and coaxed her just now was not him.
When Cora got dressed, Byron had already finished smoking a cigarette.
He looked at her. His deep eyes were full of desire. His hot eyes made Cora blush.
"You should go," Cora reminded.
"Hmm." She didn't know if it was because of having sex just now. Byron's end voice rose a little with a lazy and joyful feeling.
Cora was agitated by his mature manly aura. Her heart skipped a beat. So she opened the car door.
"I'll leave first."
Byron pinched her waist before she could get out of the car.
Cora was a little annoyed. She looked back and saw his faint smile.
It was only a faint smile, but it was real.
"I'll return to New York and wait for you."
His voice was hoarse after having sex. It was as attractive as roses blooming in the night.
The moment the two looked at each other, there seemed to be an electric current flowing in their bodies. Their heart seemed to be getting closer...
"Um."
Cora hastily withdrew her gaze, fearing that he would not be willing to leave, but she could not get out of the car.
She immediately got out of the car. Then, she heard the engine sound of the vehicle.
They didn't wave goodbye, but their eyes met through the rearview mirror, and then both smiled again.
It wasn't until Cora watched the car disappear at the intersection that she returned to the tent.
"Dr. Lane, where did you go just now?"
The head nurse came into the tent to take things and was puzzled when she saw Cora's blushed face.
"I went to the bathroom."
Afraid of being spotted, Cora asked, "What's up?"
The head nurse smiled. "Nothing. Dr. Lane, you look beautiful with your hair down."
She said this sincerely. It was her first-time seeing Cora's this appearance. After all, Cora usually tied her hair in the hospital, trying to shape herself into an inflexible image.
Others in the chat group saw the message from Cora. Someone sent a message. [Dr. Lane, you sent this message to the wrong person.]
Of course, some didn't like Cora and started complaining after seeing this message.
[Dr. Lane, please don't send such flirtatious messages to the work chat group during this particular period. You are wasting public resources.]
It was Lisha who sent the message.
Lisha was also a member of the medical support team, but she did not participate in the team out of her heart.
In the hospital, she often went to the VIP wards and flirted with rich young men. Her behavior seriously affected the reputation of the hospital. She was facing expulsion.
So she took the initiative to join the medical support team, hoping that the hospital's senior management would forgive her for the sake of supporting Clamville.
Lisha publicly targeted Cora in the chat group because she had told Cora that she planned to pursue Harry. So she hoped Cora could keep a low profile and not affect her.
At first, she thought Cora had listened to her warning. So she chatted with Harry on WhatsApp and flirted with him from time to time.
But a few days ago, Lisha had seen a video clip on Harry's Instagram. In the video, Cora was taking a hot spring.
In Lisha's eyes, Cora was in the same class as her. They were neither qualified to attend that hot spring party with these rich young men. But Cora had the opportunity to go to this kind of party. So she thought Cora had hooked up with Harry.
Lisha felt that Cora betrayed her. After arriving in Clamville, she targeted Cora, just like the message she had sent in the chat group.
But she never expected that a few minutes after she sent the message, Byron, who had been quiet since joining the chat group, sent a message for the first time. He even mentioned Cora.
