Enna Clark really felt it was too awkward to discuss these matters with him under these circumstances. She quietly shifted her position but was caught off guard by his question, reflexively saying, “Wasn’t it you who slammed the door and left?”
“Before I slammed the door, you stopped talking to me!” Baron Lawrence clenched his teeth and held onto her waist, not allowing her to move around. If she continued, he was afraid he wouldn’t be in the mood to talk to her nicely and would instead just want to knock her out!
Enna felt extremely wronged and quickly said, “I didn’t ignore you, I just saw that you were emotional, and I didn’t want to argue with you three times over the same issue, so I wanted to get you a glass of water first. I thought once you calmed down, I would explain everything. But as soon as I turned around, you slammed the door and left…”
“So you didn’t intend to ignore me?”
“No.”
“You didn’t give me the silent treatment because of another man?”
“…No.”
“Why didn’t you come to find me? It was only after Scott Harris pleaded with you that you were finally willing to come.” At this moment, he suddenly cared about this detail, which he hadn’t cared about before.
Enna pursed her lips, her eyes filled with embarrassment as she had to discuss these matters with him at a time like this. Her cheeks turned red, and she felt wronged, “You slammed the door and left, what if you wouldn’t see me if I came to find you?”
Baron Lawrence wanted to say, how would you know I definitely wouldn’t see you if you didn’t come to find me?
But thinking about how he had indeed not seen her just now, he swallowed his words! However, having received the answer he had hardly dared to wish for, the frustration that had built up in his heart for a month dissipated. His mood suddenly improved — Enna Clark liked him, not just reluctantly being with him because of their child, nor pretending to like him, but truly liking him!
Nothing could be more delightful to him!
All the bad moods he had during this time were swept away!
Unable to restrain himself any longer, he practically “melded” the person beneath him into his marrow…
By the time Enna woke up again, the sky outside had already darkened.
As she moved, she realized she felt refreshed, as if she had already taken a bath. Instead of being in the kitchen, she was lying on the sofa in Baron Lawrence’s office.
Enna blinked her eyes.
As her consciousness gradually returned, so did those sizzling images.
She propped herself up and called out, “Baron Lawrence…”
It was only when she spoke that she realized her voice had become hoarse.
But soon, someone came to her, tall, and handsome. Who else could it be other than Baron Lawrence?
“You’re awake?”
“Mhm.” Enna nodded, her throat dry, “Baron Lawrence, I want some water.”
“Hold on.” He quickly turned around, poured her a glass of water, and handed it to her.
Enna took the water glass and gulped down most of it, finally feeling a bit better. She rubbed her throbbing temples and asked after putting down the glass, “How long have I been asleep?”
“Are you asking from the time you passed out, or from the time I finished?”
Passed out…
Finished…
Even though Enna was used to his straightforward way of expressing himself, she was still a bit taken aback.
“Either way…”
“From the time you passed out, it’s been two hours and twenty minutes; from the time I finished, it’s been one hour and forty minutes.”
Enna wasn’t foolish enough to ask what he had been doing during the forty-minute gap, so she silently closed her mouth.
Her slightly flushed cheeks were adorable, and Baron Lawrence couldn’t help but want her again. He struggled to look away, and with an air of nonchalance, he said, “The Hospital has already fired Wyndham Howell, so they won’t let him return right away. I’ve already talked to Scott Harris, asking him to arrange a similar hospital for Wyndham Howell; whether he accepts or not is up to him. But you’re not allowed to mention his name again.”
