Chapter 613 - Helpless
Chapter 613 - Helpless
"What can I do for you? I feel sad seeing you like this," Anya's hand gently stroked Aiden's head.
In her eyes, Aiden was a very strong man. This was the first time she saw Aiden helpless like this…
??Aiden held Anya's hand and brought it to his lips, then kissed it gently. "I only need you. With you by my side, I can sleep soundly every night."
"I feel that your headaches happen because you often have insomnia," said Anya. "Are you sleepy? Do you want to sleep?"
"What do you want? Are you suggesting anything else?" Aiden opened his eyes and looked deeply at Anya.
Anya laughed hearing that. "Don't think anything weird. I'm on my period. Have you forgotten?"
Aiden hugged Anya's waist and whispered, "After your competition is over, how about we go to the island and stay there for a while?"
"Fine with me," Anya agreed.
"I'll take a shower first," after his headache subsided, Aiden got up and headed straight to the bathroom.
Anya immediately called Tara and urged her to come right away.
"Anya, I suggest checking Aiden's health at the hospital. Treating his headaches all the time like this is not going to cure him. It is only for temporary treatment. If Aiden is sick, he must seek proper treatment for it," said Tara.
"I'll tell Aiden," said Anya.
"If you can't persuade him, let my grandfather speak to him. I think he checked his condition, but Aiden doesn't want to undergo treatment," said Tara.
"Why doesn't Aiden want to?" Anya asked.
"The headaches and insomnia that he experiences are likely to lead to brain problems. If it's not, how can drugs can't cure him? But if his illness is severe, he will have to undergo surgery," Tara replied, explaining it briefly to Anya who had little understanding of medical issues.
Anya was shocked to hear that. Her gaze was immediately fixed on the closed bathroom door.
Was it true that Aiden was seriously ill?
"Does that mean Aiden needed surgery but he hid it from me?" Anya asked.
"I don't know about it. It's possible that he is undergoing treatment by taking drugs that can restore his health. Maybe he felt this was not a big deal so he didn't tell you. I think Harris must have known all this. Try asking Nadine to get Harris talk about it," Tara suggested.
"I'll call Nadine now," Anya brought her cell phone out of the room. She was worried that when she called Nadine, Aiden would come out of the bathroom and hear their conversation.
She walked into the perfume room and called Nadine.
"Auntie, what's wrong?" Nadine was on her way home when she heard her cell phone ring and immediately picked it up.
"Nadine, I want to ask you a favor. So I need…" Anya briefly told Nadine about Aiden's condition. After telling it, he added. "Apart from insomnia and headaches, he is experiencing symptoms of vertigo. I haven't seen any other symptoms for a while, maybe because Aiden hid them from me. Please ask Harris about it."
"What if he doesn't want to?" Nadine glanced at Harris who was driving and whispered softly.
"Tease him maybe?" Anya suggested.
"I don't know how to do it..." Nadine answered.
"Hug him, kiss him. Take the initiative to tease him until he tells the truth, " Anya lowered her voice.
"Auntie, I can't do it!" Nadine's face turned red.
"This is important to your uncle's health. Now that your grandfather is also sick, we have to do it. The only person who knows about this problem is Harris. Make him talk!" With that, Anya gave a very important task to Nadine.
After hanging up the phone, Nadine thought for a moment while occasionally glancing at Harris. How was she supposed to get Harris to tell the truth?
"What's wrong?" Harris saw Nadine's hesitation to talk to him so he took the initiative to ask first.
"Auntie asked me to ask you. Is uncle sick?" Nadine did not know how to tease Harris, so she immediately asked openly.
The expression on Harris' face seemed to froze a little. Then, he pretended to be calm and said, "Mr. Aiden is suffering from quite a bit of insomnia. The doctor asked him to stop working temporarily and rest. What did Madame say to you?"
"Auntie is very worried about uncle. She said, apart from insomnia and headaches, he also experienced vertigo. That's why she asked me to ask you if he has any other symptoms so that she can do something about it. You see, my uncle always puts on a tough look and doesn't want to show his weakness in front of other people. Can you tell me the truth about his illness?" Nadine asked.
Actually, Harris was worried about Aiden too. But if he told Anya the truth, he would only make Anya even more worried. Apart from that, Aiden also asked him to keep all this a secret from Anya.
Currently, Anya was pregnant and had not passed her early pregnancy. If anything happened to her...
But right now, Aiden was indeed very sick. If he didn't have surgery, he might lose his sight.
But if he had it, he would be taking a big risk. Maybe he wouldn't wake up again. Maybe he would not be able to see Anya again…
Harris thought for a moment and then said calmly, "Master just needs a lot of rest. He's too tired. Maybe he wants to take a vacation and make up for two years when they separate."
"Is my uncle really okay?" Nadine hesitated when she heard Harris' answer. She knew Harris was not being honest with her.
"Master will be fine," Harris didn't know if he wanted to comfort Nadine or himself as he said that.
Nadine suddenly approached and grabbed His shoulder. "If you tell me the truth, I will kiss you."
Harris immediately took a deep breath and suddenly slammed on the brakes.
Nadine was shocked because of it. Even though she was wearing a seat belt, her body still bounced slightly forward.
Harris immediately stretched out his hand to protect Nadine. "Are you alright?"
"Why did you stop suddenly? Do you want to kill me?" Nadine shouted.
Harris' cheeks blushed as he said, "Do you really want to kiss me?"
"But you have to tell me the truth. What happened to my uncle?" Nadine asked.
"Kiss me first," Harris leaned closer to Nadine and kissed her on the lips, making the girl stare with surprise.
When she felt Harris' warmth on her lips, her face immediately flushed too. "You… We're still in the middle of the road…"
The car behind them kept honking, but Harris ignored it. Now he was driving Aiden's Bentley. No sane person would dare to crash into that expensive car.
"So sweet," Harris chuckled. His breath hit Nadine's ears and neck, making her feel even more embarrassed.
"Harris, hurry up and let's go! Your car is in the way!" Nadine covered her flushed face.
Harris drove his car and occasionally stole glances at her. "Did Madame teach you to tease me?"
"How do you know?" Nadine looked at him in surprise.
"It's not that hard to guess..." Harris can guess what Anya said to Nadine.
Anya has absolutely no experience in love. But Aiden would always melt if Anya spoiled him. That's why he could guess that it was the only way Anya could teach Nadine.
"Auntie told me to hug and kiss you, teased you until you told me the truth about my uncle's health." Finally, Nadine admitted what Anya had asked of her.
