After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 852

Chapter 852 In the Ward

Susan saw a stark-naked man before the mirror the instant she got into the bathroom. Manuel also found Susan right now. Then Susan immediately turned back, and her mind was crowded with Manuel's naked body: firm muscles, muscular waist, sexy booty… She even felt like stroking this man's body. She was extremely embarrassed and her heart was beating very fast as Manuel was approaching her. She felt too nervous and wondered what Manuel would do to her. Then she suddenly cried, "I just want to take a bath. I have no intention of peeking." As soon as she blurted out her words, she realized what she had just said was only a poor lie and she seemingly couldn't explain anymore.

"Are you sure?" asked Manuel in a deep voice from behind.

"Oh. I got so dirty in the car crash. I need to have a shower."

"Carry on."

"You go out," Susan said, with her eyes closed tightly.

"How can I get out as you are blocking my way?" Manuel asked a question in reply.

Susan moved a few steps, and she kept her eyes closed, in case she would get out of control as she saw Manuel's body. Then she suddenly felt his strong chest, and she opened her eyes immediately, just finding her hands touching Manuel's pectoral muscles. She hastened to whip her hands back, and explained in embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I'm not trying to take advantage of you."

Manuel looked down at her, who couldn't help shifting her eyes to the lower part of Manuel. He had wrapped a bath towel around his waist, or Susan would have sunk through the floor.

"When did you get so timid?" Manuel asked Susan.

Susan was speechless by this sudden question, looking at him in a daze. Manuel looked incredibly sexy with his wet hair.

"You let me down," Manuel said and went out directly.

Susan stared at the doorway, seeming lost in private thoughts. "What did he mean? Did he criticize me? Did he want me to do something to him?" wondered Susan. She shook her head and hastily went to turn on the shower, intending to clear away the cobwebs from her brain. She almost bounced up as soon as the water gushed out.

"Shit! It's so cold! Why is it cold water?" Susan turned off the water and began to adjust the temperature as she wondered, "Why did Manuel take a cold shower?" She breathed in deeply, and murmured, "I've thrown caution to the wind for you, Hannah." After a hot bath, Susan wore a hospital gown and got out of the bathroom.

Manuel was also in a hospital gown, checking his phone on the sofa. He had cooled down. Susan walked slowly to the bed and lay down on it, staring at Manuel steadily even without a wink.

"Why don't you go to bed?" Manuel asked her, and his eyes were still kept on his phone.
