Chapter 868:
âMr. Dawson claimed to have analyzed the three blood samples and found the cancer gene in each one. He thinks the samples belong to all three of us! Wait, since your blood contains the cancer gene, mine probably does too!â Jessica became anxious. âIâm going to schedule a medical checkup to verify this for myself!â
Jessica abruptly ended the call before Conroy could respond.
She immediately scheduled a full-body checkup for both herself and Conroy, and he had no chance to refuse. They would go to the hospital the next morning.
Later that evening, as Eileen emerged from the bathroom and approached the bed, Bryan suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist, causing a sharp pain that made her gasp in discomfort.
âWhatâs wrong?â he asked, letting go immediately.
Eileen lifted the hem of her dress, revealing the bruise on her waist.
âI got hurt by accident today,â she said, quickly filling him in on what had happened at the hospital.
Bryan turned on the lamp beside the bed. After examining the bruise, he retrieved some ointment from downstairs and applied it gently to the area. He then used his palms to massage Eileenâs waist until the discomfort eased.
âThis is all your fault. You were too rough last night. Thatâs why I was too weak to catch myself when I fell. You said two hours was enough, but you didnât stop there. You kept going for almost half the night!â Eileen complained, lying on her stomach.
âYou told me to have a time limit,â Bryan replied with a serious face. âI said two hours. But you didnât tell me how to do it just one time.â
á°Ïðð Ï ð©ððððð ιð§ É¢ð¶ð¥ð·ðð¯ððð.ð¸ðð Eileenâs eyes went wide in shock as she was rendered speechless. She had to fight the urge to curse him.
Bryan was a master at finding and exploiting even the tiniest weakness to get what he wanted. How could she possibly be his match?
âPeople get to rest even when theyâre working,â Eileen grumbled. âBut I have to âserveâ you every day without rest.â
Bryan responded, âThere are twenty-four hours in a day, and typically, one works for eight hours. Youâve never served me for eight hours. Moreover, you can rest at least seven days a month during your period. If you want to compare this to a job, you need to put in more effort.â
âYou want to exhaust me to death, donât you?â Eileen grasped his wrist, lay down, and pressed her foot against his chest. âFrom now on, Iâm taking Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays off, while you get Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays off. Weâll only do it on Sundays!â
âI donât need to rest.â Bryanâs hand closed around her ankle, and as he took in her disheveled attire, his desire burned.
But then, he suddenly remembered her waist was still injured.
He frowned, let go of her ankle, and tucked her in.
The next second, Eileen turned around, grabbed her cell phone, and began searching online for âWhen does a manâs sex driveâ¦?â
Despite the crowds at the hospital early in the morning, Eileen and Dalores arrived ahead of time and were prioritized by the nurse to undergo the bone marrow test first.
