Chapter 2511
Night of Destiny
Novel My babyâs daddy chapter 2511 -âNo. Miss Kurt didnât want me to send her off,â Shirley replied.
âJesslyn is my fatherâs friendâs daughter. Her parents got into a car crash and
passed away when she was young, so my family took her in. Iâve always treated
her like a younger sister,â Zacharias explained while looking into her eyes.
âI see,â she replied with a nod.
âWhat do you see?â he asked with his gaze narrowed. He wanted her to clarify
herself. âWell, I donât care about your relationship with Miss Kurt. You donât have
to explain anything to me,â Shirley replied.
Zacharias was momentarily taken aback but then let out a soft scoff. âOf course,
I have to explain things to you.â
âNo. You donât,â she rebutted, âWeâve kissed each other, after all,â he stated
hesitantly. Shirley corrected him in a rather hostile tone. âThat was forced. I
didnât consent to it,â she replied.
Zacharias raised his eyebrows and confidently countered, âWe still kissed.â
The room started to feel warmer as she bit her bottom lip, gazing at him. âIâm
going to get dinner,â she said after a while.
âIâll go with you.â After finishing his sentence, he threw the sheets aside and tried
to get out of bed.
Shirley quickly stopped Zacharias when she saw how careless he was with his
injuries. âYouâre not supposed to get out of bed when youâre in this condition.â
âYou can bring our dinner into the room, then. I want you to eat with me,â he
said. He wouldnât have much appetite if he had to eat alone.
âFine. Iâll bring your food over.â She had no choice but to obey him. She headed
to the dining area. Even though it was just catered food, they had a surprisingly
wide variety of options. She got a meal for the man before she brought it to his
room. Then, she set up the overbed table and placed the food before sitting
beside him.
While Zacharias had his meal, he occasionally stole glances at Shirley. She
eventually got rather annoyed at his sneaky actions and glared back at him.
Soon enough, he finished his meal. She cleared the table and brought the
empty plates out. After returning to the room, she found the doctor checking
Zachariasâ temperature. The man seemed to be burning up again.
âYou should pay attention to your temperature, Mr. Flintstone. You have to let
me know if you realize youâre getting feverish again,â the doctor said.
âOkay,â Zacharias replied with a nod. After the doctor left, Shirley held her palm
out to feel the manâs forehead. He was indeed warmer than before.
At that moment, Freddie knocked on the door before rushing in. âMr. Flintstone,
thereâs an important interview that you have to show up for tonight. Iâm afraid the
public might suspect something if you donât.â
She stepped back as Freddie pulled an iPad to show Zacharias what he meant.
There was an international news report that had Zachariasâ name in it. Someone
raised their suspicions about him being in an accident, so he had to show up to
dispute the rumors.
Zacharias knitted his brows after reading the report.
âIt looks like someone is forcing you to show yourself,â Freddie commented.
âTake me to my office, Zacharias muttered in a deep voice.
âWe only have half an hour until the nightly news stream. Will we have time?â
Freddie asked.
âWeâll have to hurry,â Zacharias replied.
âMiss Lloyd, weâre rushing to head back to the office. Youâll have to arrange for
the staff members to get us there,â Freddie uttered as he turned to look at
Shirley.
âBut⦠heâs having a fever,â she replied worriedly. She knew Zacharias wasnât
supposed to leave the hospital when he was in such a state.
âThat doesnât matter. Letâs go.â Upon finishing his words, Zacharias pulled the
sheets aside and looked at her. âBring my clothes over.â Shirley pulled a set of
clothes from the wardrobe, and he ordered everyone to leave the room
âYour shoulder is injured, so youâll need help to get dressed. Please help Mr.
Flintstone, Mr. Hurst,â she uttered.
Freddie was glad to help, but Zacharias stopped him before he could do
anything. âFreddie can leave. I want you to stay,â Zacharias told her.
Shirley eyed Zacharias speechlessly. Freddie was a quick-witted man-he
hurried out of the room without having to be told twice.
Zacharias already had his slacks in his hands by then, so she hastily turned
around. She could feel her heart pounding as she heard the sound of the man
putting on his pants. This was soon followed by the sound of his belt.
âTurn around,â he ordered.
Shirley did as she was told and walked over to help Zacharias remove his shirt.
Both his wounds were fresh, and they seemed like they would reopen if he
made any large gestures. His condition would certainly worsen if his wounds
were to be torn open.
