LOVE HAS COME AROUND novel Chapter 6

“Christian North, whenever you say horrible things like you just did, I wonder whether you have a heart or not.” Vivian said softly.

Patrick tried to convince her otherwise, “Don’t listen to him, Vivian. Have some rest here. I’m a doctor. Even if I can’t cure Jessica, I could ask someone else for help.”

Patrick decided to stand up to Christian. He stared at Christian fearlessly and pointed at her medical records at bedside, “Go and have a good look. If we weren't friends for years, I would punch you right now!”

Christian let go of her hand. He snapped his fingers and several hunky bodyguards ran into the room. They were frightening.

“Take him out!” Christian ordered.

Patrick couldn’t believe what Christian had done. He was furious, “Christian North, what's wrong with you? You weren’t like this when Vivian married you. Don’t you see how she has been tortured! If you don’t like her anymore, just let her go!”

“It's none of your business how I’ve treated her!” Christian narrowed his eyes, looking extremely dangerous, “She is my wife. She belongs to me.”

Yes, she belongs to him.

Vivian, lying feebly on the bed at the moment, was choked up and speechless.

Christian North might have never treated her like a human being all along.

She was just a bird locking itself up in a fancy cage labeled as “Mrs. North”. The bird screamed its heart out every day, but never succeeded in drawing its master's attention.

No matter how Patrick struggled, he was no match for a bunch of muscular bodyguards.

It wasn't long before there were only them left in the room. Suddenly, it was awfully quiet.

“I’m not going back with you.” Vivian was looking down at the white quilt cover, “How did you ask me to look after Jessica? Aren’t you afraid that I would hurt her?”

“Don't you dare!”

His tone made her nose twitch.
