My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 2511

“No. Miss Kurt didn’t want me to send her off,” Shirley replied.

“Jesslyn is my father’s friend’s daughter. Her parents got into a car crash and passed away when she was young, so my family took her in. I’ve always treated her like a younger sister,” Zacharias explained while looking into her eyes.

“I see,’ she replied with a nod.

“What do you see?” he asked with his gaze narrowed. He wanted her to clarify herself. “Well, I don’t care about your relationship with Miss Kurt. You don’t have to explain anything to me,” Shirley replied.

Zacharias was momentarily taken aback but then let out a soft scoff. “Of course, I have to explain things to you.”

“No. You don’t,” she rebutted, “We’ve kissed each other, after all,” he stated hesitantly. Shirley corrected him in a rather hostile tone. “That was forced. I didn’t consent to it,” she replied.

Zacharias raised his eyebrows and confidently countered, “We still kissed.”

The room started to feel warmer as she bit her bottom lip, gazing at him. “I’m going to get dinner,” she said after a while.

“I’ll go with you.” After finishing his sentence, he threw the sheets aside and tried to get out of bed.

Shirley quickly stopped Zacharias when she saw how careless he was with his injuries. “You’re not supposed to get out of bed when you’re in this condition.”

“You can bring our dinner into the room, then. I want you to eat with me,” he said. He wouldn’t have much appetite if he had to eat alone.

“Fine. I’ll bring your food over.” She had no choice but to obey him. She headed to the dining area. Even though it was just catered food, they had a surprisingly wide variety of options. She got a meal for the man before she brought it to his room. Then, she set up the overbed table and placed the food before sitting beside him.

While Zacharias had his meal, he occasionally stole glances at Shirley. She eventually got rather annoyed at his sneaky actions and glared back at him. Soon enough, he finished his meal. She cleared the table and brought the empty plates out. After returning to the room, she found the doctor checking Zacharias’ temperature. The man seemed to be burning up again.

“You should pay attention to your temperature, Mr. Flintstone. You have to let me know if you realize you’re getting feverish again,” the doctor said.

“Okay,” Zacharias replied with a nod. After the doctor left, Shirley held her palm out to feel the man’s forehead. He was indeed warmer than before.

At that moment, Freddie knocked on the door before rushing in. “Mr. Flintstone, there’s an important interview that you have to show up for tonight. I’m afraid the public might suspect something if you don’t.”
