“And you kept asking me to leave. Did you do something wrong?” Felicity thought of what Vermont did in the past and glared at him. “Are you hiding a woman in your office?”
Vermont was speechless. “Am I that kind of person to you?”
“Why do you keep asking me to leave then?”
Vermont was at a loss for words. ‘I can’t possibly tell her that I just don’t want her to see my reaction, right?*
So, he pursed his lips and said, “I really have work to do. Don’t you know me well enough? Do you think I’d work overtime if it weren’t urgent?”
Felicity continued scrutinizing him and noticed that he did not seem to lie. So, she said, “Go ahead and work then. I’ll just sit here quietly and won’t disturb you.”
Having a clingy girlfriend could be a good thing, but that was not the case for Vermont at that moment.
“There’s a bed inside the lounge here. You can rest in there.”
“I’m not tired.”
Vermont felt helpless. “Well, I’ll go in to have a rest myself then. I’m tired.”
He stood up and was about to walk away as he spoke, but Felicity grabbed his bathrobe.
Vermont had just finished showering, and he just tied his
bathrobe loosely. With just a tug from Felicity, the entire bathrobe fell off.
Vermont stood there, exposed. However, he still had his underwear on.
Felicity was taken aback. Her face instantly turned red as she stammered, “I didn’t mean to do that. Why didn’t you tie it properly?”
She hurriedly tried to wrap the bathrobe around Vermont’s body as she spoke.
However, not only that she did not manage to cover him up because of how hasty she was, but she also dropped the bathrobe to the ground.
As she bent down to pick it up, she unintentionally saw something she should not have when she looked up. She paused and instinctively said, “Damn, it’s up?”
Vermont kept quiet.
The edge of his lips twitched as he tried to cover himself up, but Felicity stopped him. “Don’t move. Let me take a picture and ask the doctor if this counts as progress.”
Vermont could not believe what he had just heard. He was about to say something but felt blood streaming down his nose.
Perhaps the soup was too effective; his nosebleed was like an open faucet, gushing out of his nose heavily and staining Felicity’s t-shirt.
It shocked Felicity. She was not bothered to take a picture anymore as she immediately went to grab some tissues and stuffed them into Vermont’s nose.
“Stinky Cucumber, are you okay?”
Felicity got anxious when she saw more and more blood coming out of Vermont’s nose. “Come on, quickly get dressed. I’ll take you to the hospital now.”
Vermont did not want to go, but his nosebleed just would not stop. So, he did as Felicity said and reluctantly went to the hospital with her.
In contrast to the chaos on their side, everything was very peaceful with Stella and Keegan.
Stella not only prepared supper for Keegan but for his team members as well. However, Keegan’s portion was specially made for him.
Keegan was not too concerned about what he used or wore, but he could be very particular about his food.
Of course, Stella catered to his preferences. She carefully picked out the cilantro from his soup with a spoon before handing it to him, “Enjoy, Mr. Kane.”
“You should have some, too,” Keegan said.
“The production has restarted, and I can’t afford to gain weight.”
“It’s almost done, isn’t it?”
Stella nodded. “We were almost going to wrap up before Bella got exposed. However, Nicole replaced her now, and we’re just reshooting some previous scenes. We should be done with it by next month.”
