Chapter 263
The whole thing happened so fast. It not only caught Dr Dawson off guard, but even Marcus didnât realize what he had done until after it was over
He couldnât remember what else He touched his lips, spinning them around, still tasting the unique flavor of Comelia it was a bit sweet, but also
Behind his silver glasses, he stared at Comellas red lips yearning to taste them again But the timing wasnât right When itâs time he would savor her taste, memorizing it deeply
Dr Dawson watched him, amused in just a few days, his affectionate gestures with Comelia were so natural it seemed their relationship had made great strides. Perhaps when she wasnât aware, his actions were
bolder
Not wanting to intrude on their private time. Dr. Dawson quietly excused herself
Upon leaving the ran into Briana who was sneakily observing, âBri, donât bother your brotherâ
Briana worriedly said. âDr Dawson, is my brother bullying Cornelia? Cornelia is fine when sheâs with me. Why did she faint when theâs with him?â
âYour brother would never bully Comelia Dr Dawson led Briana downstairs. âYou come with me, donât worry about anything else
âBut will Cornelia really be okay?â Briana truly liked Cornelia and was very worried that her brother might bully her
Dr Dawson chuckled. With your brother there, no one would dare to bully Corneliaâ
When Comelia slowly woke up, it was already nine in the morning of the next day
As soon as she tried to move, her hand was held by a warm hand. A clear voice came to her ears, âCornelia, thank goodness, youâre finally awakeâ
Cornelia had just woke up and was still a bit groggy, unsure of what had happened, âBri, what happened?â
âCornelia, you fainted all of a sudden last night. You need to rest now Stay put Briana turned her head and shouted, âMarcus, Cornelia is awakeâ
Then, Marcusâs tall figure walked in Comelia didnât know he had been waiting at the door all this time and never left
He quickly came to Corneliaâs bedside, âDo you feel uncomfortable anywhere?â
Faced with Marcuss excessive concern, Cornelia always felt a bit at a loss, her words stumbling, âIâm fine. Thank you for your concern, President Hartley!â
Marcus could tell that Cornelia was trying to keep a distance, and he didnât want to stress her out. âDonât push yourself. Just rest here today, I have Bri stay with you.â
âIâm leaving nowâ Despite his worry for her, Marcus acted indifferent to ease her burden. Before leaving he gave Briana a look.
Briana immediately understood, followed him out, and heard him say, âGive me your phoneâ
