The girl was so scared that she immediately closed her eyes. She frowned tightly, and her face was full of panic and fear. "Sir?!"
"What are you shouting for?" Marcellus wanted to tease her, but her face was too pure and innocent. He suddenly felt guilty and raised his thick eyebrows. In the end, he didn't do anything excessive and walked out sideways.
Watching the man's tall figure disappear from her sight, the girl breathed a sigh of relief. She raised her small hand and covered her chest. When she thought of the pair of bright eyes gazing at her just now, her heart couldn't help beating wildly.
Was he deliberately teasing her?
The girl wrinkled her delicate nose and thought, "This man is really bad!"

When Huston arrived at the hospital, Evelyn had already woken up. When he pushed open the door of the ward and entered, she was talking to a nurse next to her about her condition. When the nurse saw him coming in, both of them fell silent and looked over.
He walked to the bedside and caressed the side of her face with his big palm. His strength was gentle, and there was an unconcealable tenderness between his brows. "How are you feeling now?"
Evelyn looked up at the man above her. For a moment, she was still in a daze. After a few seconds, she cleared her throat and said, "I'm fine..."
With just two words, Huston felt as if his ears had been ground by a stone.
Huston immediately wanted to take the warm water from the bedside and feed it to her. The nurse noticed his intention and quickly persuade him, "Mr. Lloyd, she has just woken up and can't drink water. You can just moisten her lips."
Huston furrowed his brows and looked towards the young nurse with a great sense of oppression. Perhaps even he himself did not notice the hostility in him.
Evelyn quickly turned around and said considerately to the nurse, "You can leave now. I'll call you if I need anything here."
