Chapter 118 He Thought She Was Trying to Seduce Him

The car was parked in front of the Watson’s house.

Audrey looked at the young man, his features as if chiseled by divine craftsmanship, handsome and aloof under the dim light. A hint of gratitude showed in her eyes and brows.

He took out a small medicine bottle from the bag, “Last time at your place, I saw you taking that Western medicine with severe side effects. This is something I’ve developed for you. Although it can’t completely cure your paranoia and irritability, it can help to soothe and suppress them. I will continue to develop more beneficial medicine for now, take this bottle…”

you. For

Sterling looked into her dark eyes, his gaze falling on the medicine bottle in her hand. His thin l*ps curled slightly. “You seem to have me all figured out.”

He was a bit nicer to her, and she immediately wanted to reciprocate.

The line between gratitude and resentment was clearly drawn!

Audrey noticed his face had become a bit gloomier, her long, dense eyelashes trembling slightly. “If you’re good to me, of course I’ll be good to you too!”

Audrey placed the medicine in his hand. “This medicine doesn’t have many side effects–”

Before Audrey could finish her sentence, he had thrown the medicine. out of the car window.

Seeing his actions. Audrey’s breath hitched.

110-

That was the medicine she had developed after staying up for several nights. How could he just throw it away so easily?

Audrey wanted to say something, but as she looked up, she met his deep, unfathomable dark eyes. There was a cold, harsh light in them, revealing emotions she couldn’t understand.

The words Audrey wanted to say were all stuck in her throat.

Perhaps, he didn’t care for her medicine!

“Next time I develop a better one, I’ll give it to you.” Seeing the villa gate open, Audrey pushed the car door, ready to get out.

But before the door could be pushed open, the slender, fair wrist was already seized by the young man.

Their eyes met again, a hint of darkness flickering in his gaze. His thin l*ps curled slightly, “I don’t need your medicine.”

His emotions were uncontrollable, irritable, paranoid, and cold, but he didn’t need any of her sympathy!

Audrey slightly furrowed her delicate brows, “If you’re not confident about taking my medicine, you can have it tested–”

Before she could finish her words, he had already lifted his slender, immaculate hand, caressing her delicate and beautiful collarbone. The moment his cool fingertips touched her skin, she was startled, her pupils shrinking. She quickly grabbed his hand, “What are you doing?”

Sterling saw the wariness and panic in her eyes, a low chuckle escaping from his thin l*ps. His slender fingers buttoned up the top two buttons of her chiffon shirt for her.

“Disheveled, I thought you were trying to seduce me.”

Chapter 110 He Thought She Was Trying to Seduce Him

Audrey hadn’t noticed that two buttons had come undone. It wasn’t revealing much, but one could faintly see the strap of her pale pink bra underneath.

Her tender white cheeks and ears were tinged with a hot blush. She pulled away his hand, fastened the topmost button, turned her head, dared not look into his deep, dark eyes again, and in her panic, she pushed open the car door and got out.

Watching her slender figure running towards the villa, Sterling pressed his tongue against his cheek, feeling a slight itch in his back teeth.

He didn’t turn around and leave until her figure disappeared from sight.

The car hadn’t been gone long before it came back again.

The tall, cold figure got out of the sports car, searched by the roadside for a while, picked up the small medicine

and then got back into the car.

the Watson’s house.

Audrey had just stepped in when she saw Rylan hurriedly coming down from upstairs.

Having not seen him for three days, Rylan had noticeably lost some weight. His eyes, under his glasses, were tinged with bloodshot red. His usually clean–shaven jaw was now covered with stubble. Overall, he looked tired and much more haggard.
