Chapter 2002 Getting Through It
Immediately after, Mike filled the tub with water and then helped Bella into it.
The moment Bella made contact with the cold water, she couldn’t help but shiver.
Indeed, doing that in the depths of winter was a bit too much.
Considering Bella had been drained of all energy, Mike gently helped her into the water.
Seeing the state Bella was in, Mike couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy. He suggested, “Maybe we should just forget it? The doctor will be here soon. Why put yourself through unnecessary suffering?”
Bella’s face flushed, and she shook her head. With great difficulty she stuttered, “I am now… consumed by a burning in lust, unable to control myself… If I don’t do this, I’m afraid… I’m afraid I won’t last until the doctor arrives.”
Having said that, she glanced at Mike. “You wouldn’t want me to take advantage of you, would you?” She chuckled after saying that.
Mike widened his eyes. Is this really the time for her to be cracking jokes?
This is absolutely madness.
After much difficulty, Mike managed to settle Bella into the water. He wanted to stay by her side, but Bella wouldn’t allow it.
She claimed that it was inappropriate for an unmarried man and woman to be alone in the same room.
Yet, Mike had almost seen everything there was to see, so there really was nothing left for him to avoid.
Despite that, Bella still insisted, “Sir, I’m not married yet. If you keep this up, I won’t be able to get married. Will I have to come looking for you then?”
Mike didn’t know what came over him as he blurted out, “If you look for me, then so be it. Worst comes to worst, I’ll marry you.”
As those words were spoken, an eerie silence ensued.
Both of them fell silent. Mike felt that his words might have been a bit too much, so he cleared his throat a couple of times, attempting to lighten the mood.
“What I mean is… It’s better for me to marry you than for you to drown alone in the bathroom, right?”
Bella did not continue the topic. She simply insisted that Mike should wait outside.
“Just stay nearby outside. I’ll call you if I need anything.”
In the end, Mike could only agree. As he left, he made sure to close the door behind him.
While anxiously pacing in place, he intermittently asked Bella if she was okay, all the while trying to get ir touch with the doctor.
Even Mike felt that he was overdoing it.
Meanwhile, Bella was in the bathroom. The burning sensation was truly unbearable. She could only

achieve brief clarity by biting her own arm.
At that very moment, she was also quite relieved that she had driven Mike away.
For some unknown reason, she simply didn’t want him to see her in such a disheveled state.
Thus, twenty minutes pa*sed, and both Bella and Mike felt as if each moment was stretching into an eternity.
The latter would occasionally ask toward the bathroom door, “Are you okay? Do you need any help?”
After he heard Bella’s voice, only then could he feel at ease.
Gradually, Bella’s voice became fainter and fainter until there was no response at all.
Mike couldn’t care less at this point. He kicked open the bathroom door with one foot.
The sight before his eyes left him stunned.
The water in the bathtub was stained red with large patches of blood. Bella lay unconscious in the tub, the bite wound on her arm looking terribly gruesome.
It was hard for him to imagine what kind of pain Bella was facing. It must be tormenting for her! Hence, this was her last resort, by doing this to her own body.
A look of heartache surfaced in Mike’s eyes as he lifted her out of the water.
The cold water instantly soaked Mike’s clothes, mingling with spots of blood. His white shirt was speckled with the blood from Bella’s arm.
Mike, who had always been fastidious about cleanliness, didn’t seem to mind at all. There was not even a furrow in his brows.
