Chapter 597 It's You Who Are Fated to Be (3)
James pulled the small table nearby to the side of Nell's bed and placed the wonton and soup dumplings on the table.
He opened the lid on the package, and immediately, a burst of soup dumplings and wonton aroma assailed his nostrils.
It was really fragrant. Nell could feel her stomach growling even harder. She desperately wanted to eat something to satisfy her organs.
Nell picked up her chopsticks and was about to eat when she suddenly thought of something and looked at James. "Mr. Walker, you didn't eat tonight, did you?"
"I didn't eat!"
Nell glanced at the midnight snack. It was for two people.
"Then you should eat together!" Nell flipped through the food and opened another midnight snack package, placing it across her small table.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
James very naturally sat across from the small table by the bed.
Because the table was very small, they ate together at a very close distance.
When Nell was eating soup dumplings, she saw James eating wonton with his head down. After a close observation, Nell found that James's facial features were quite handsome. Maybe it was because James was a mixed-blood, so his facial features were especially deep and three-dimensional.
In the past, she had been prejudiced against James, so she had never properly seen him. Now that she had carefully sized him up, she suddenly discovered that James was a handsome man. Although the space at the small table was small, James' good cultivation allowed him to eat very elegantly. It was different from Nell's devouring.
Noticing that Nell was sizing him up, James suddenly looked up into Nell's eyes.
Nell immediately looked in the other direction, pretending that she had not looked at him just now.
James suddenly said, "left."
Nell was stunned for a moment. "What do you mean?"
"The crumbs have been left on your mouth!"
"Where?" Nell quickly used her hand to wipe it, but she didn't touch the right place.
Seeing this, James directly reached out and wiped the corner of Nell's mouth.
Her warm fingers fell on the corner of her lips, making Nell's lips feel hot. Her heart trembled, and her body suddenly retreated.
"Thank you!" Nell quickly took out a tissue, intending to wipe James's hands.
However, before Nell could hand over the tissue in her hand, James's finger suddenly reached his mouth and ate the bun crumbs.
Nell was speechless. Her heart was in an uproar...
What just happened? James actually ate the bun crumbs at the corner of her mouth... He ate them...
This action could not be more intimate. Even though Nell was open, her face was a little red.
In the following time, Nell carefully ate her food. After she finished eating, she immediately wiped her face with a tissue, not letting anything remain on her face.
...
At night, Nell wanted to go to the bathroom because she had drunk too much wonton soup.
On the sofa beside, James had fallen asleep wearing a suit jacket.
Nell didn't want James to help her to the bathroom, so she got off the bed and jumped toward the bathroom.
It was a smooth journey from the hospital bed to the bathroom.
When Nell was about to go out of the bathroom, she did not notice the water that splashed under the basin when she washed her hands. She stepped on it and with a scream, Nell fell to the ground. Fortunately, Nell's head hit the mat outside the shower. If it had hit the marble floor, she would probably have had a severe concussion by now. Her poor butt was almost broken in half.
Her body was in too much pain from the fall. She tried twice, but she did not get up at all.
At this time, a voice came from outside the bathroom. "Do you need help?"
Nell looked up and saw James standing outside.
Nell was so awkward.
Nell looked at him awkwardly and whispered, "Yes!"
James smiled and helped Nell up from the ground.
As soon as she moved, Nell's butt hurt so much that she gritted her teeth and refused to move.
Seeing this, James carried Nell by the waist and walked towards the bed.
In James's arms, Nell could feel the muscles and strength on James's arms. Moreover, she felt extremely secure in his arms.
James placed Nell on the bed. Just as his butt touched the bed, the pain caused Nell's entire face to twist so much that it almost deformed.
Damn it, it was simply going to hurt her to death.
She gritted her teeth and thanked James. "Mr. Walker, thank you so much."
"If you want to go to the bathroom next time, you can call me." There was a hint of ridicule in James's voice.
Nell was lost for words.
It was too embarrassing.
The next day was the weekend, but the news media workers generally did not have many days to rest all over the year. As long as there was news, they would work.
In the morning, James temporarily went to the company to handle some matters. As soon as James left, Nell received a phone call.
Nell sat up abruptly after answering the call.
"What did you say? Crystal came to our company again?" Just as she sat up, the pain from her waist made Nell clench her teeth.
After resting for a night, her waist still hurt so much. She heard that ... after a woman and a man had sex, their waists would also hurt very much.
Why was she thinking about this?
She shook her head.
"Okay, I got it. I'm in the hospital now. I'll go to the company immediately after the discharge procedures."
After hanging up the phone, Nell quickly went to find the doctor to handle the discharge formalities. The doctor originally did not agree with Nell's discharge. Nell expressed that her home was on fire and she had to be discharged. Only then did the doctor agree to her leaving the hospital.
After leaving the hospital, she rushed to the newspaper office in a car.
The newspaper office that Nell worked for was an old newspaper company in Peace City. There were many brands of magazines and newspapers under it. One month ago, Nell had been promoted to the editor-in-chief of Fair Magazine and was a rival against Crystal's Privilege Magazine.
When Nell arrived, her assistant quickly came up to her.
"Nell, you're finally here."
"Where is she?"
"In your office. I told her you were hospitalized, but she didn't believe me. She just wanted to wait until you come back."
"Alright, I understand!"
Nell endured the pain in her feet and walked to her office.
She pushed open the door to her office and saw Crystal sitting on her chair leisurely drinking tea. Her leisurely attitude indicated that she regarded Nell's office as her own.
Nell looked at Crystal with a sneer.
A middle-aged woman in her forties had applied foundations that were even thicker than a wall. If she shook, she would probably be able to shake off a layer of powder.
"What kind of wind blew Ms. Clarkson here? I heard that she won't leave until she sees me."
