Need You Now novel Chapter 278

The next morning, Heidy and Kevin went downstairs together. Dale looked at them and smiled with satisfaction. "Did you sleep well last night?"

Heidy nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, everything is good."

Dale stood up, held Heidy's hand and said enthusiastically, "Heidy, I have the servant make breakfast for you. Breakfast is very important. You must eat well to get healthy."

Nodding meekly, Heidy followed Dale to the dining room for meal. With her head down, she could sense Dale's attentive gaze, which made her feel uneasy.

After breakfast, Kevin came up with an excuse and left with Heidy. Before leaving, Dale asked Heidy to drop by more often.

Sitting in the car, Heidy said with a smile, "Aunt is really enthusiastic."

"Yes, she wants a grandson," Kevin said concisely.

Hearing this, Heidy chuckled. "So you have to work harder."

Kevin looked into her eyes with a faint smile. Then he turned his head and looked out of the window. Until now, he hadn't made up his mind to confess his feelings to her. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he couldn't take a move to her. Hearst was his best friend. He didn't want to mess up anything before he made sure that Hearst had no feelings for Heidy anymore.

When they were about to arrive at A city, Heidy received a call from Hearst unexpectedly. "What? Has Gavin gotten a fever?"

Kevin drove her to Hearst's villa and said, "I'm leaving now. If you need anything, let me know."

"Okay, take care." Then she rushed to the villa.

Standing there, Kevin looked at her receding figure with something flickering in his eyes. Then he turned around, got into the car and drove away.

When Heidy came to the living room, the servant saw her and said respectfully, "Madam, you're back."

Having no time to correct the way they addressed her, Heidy asked in a hurry, "Where is Gavin?"

"He is still having a fever, but he doesn't want to take the medicine. Mr. Hearst is trying to convince him," the servant replied.

As soon as she heard the answer, Heidy rushed to Gavin's room. Gavin was lying on the bed with a pale face. The nanny was wiping his body with a wet towel. Hearst looked at him with a serious face and said in a solemn voice, "Gavin, the doctor said that you should take the medicine."

Gavin groaned in a low voice, "I don't want to take medicine. You are a bad man. You abandoned mommy. I hate you."

With his head down, Hearst pursed his lips. He didn't expect that Gavin would hurt himself in this way for what had happened between he and Heidy. Before Hearst was about to persuade him, Heidy walked up to her and said, "Gavin, take medicine if you are sick. Mommy know you are a good boy."

When Gavin heard the voice, he slowly opened his eyes. Turning to the direction of Heidy, she called, "Mother."

Heidy stepped forward. She fondled his head and said with a frown, "Gavin, you are still burning. If you still suffer like that, mommy would be sad. So you take the medicine, okay?"

"The medicine doesn't taste good. I don't like it. Please feed me, mom," begged Gavin in a coquettish tone

Taking Gavin in her arms, Heidy turned to Hearst and asked, "Where is the medicine?"

Hearst brought the medicine on the table, and handed it to Heidy. Then she feed the medicine to Gavin. As his temperature was too high, they had fed him several times. After taking care of all this, Heidy finally felt relieved.

"Gavin, you should have a good rest and you will recover soon. Understand?" said Heidy softly.

Taking a glance at the woman in front of him, Gavin tightly held her hand. "Mom, please stay with me, will you?"

Seeing his red face, she felt a pang of sadness. She nodded and said softly, "Okay, I'll be here with you."

Hearing her words, Gavin closed his eyes. Gavin fell asleep quickly, perhaps because the pills started to take effects. Seeing him fall asleep, Heidy stood up and left the room quietly with Hearst.

"How did you take care of Gavin? How did he had a fever?" Heidy blamed.

Cathy lowered her head sadly. His words were no arrows but they pierced her heart. Being misunderstood was a torment for her. At the thought of it, Cathy still tried to explain herself, "Mr. James, I didn't mean this to happen."

"Noah, let's go," James butted in. He pulled Noah's arm to walk towards the elevator.

Standing there, Cathy saw the elevator slowly closing, and her eyes flashed with sadness. James was friendly towards her before he knew that she was Hearst's girlfriend. The big change saddened Cathy. "Am I really wrong?" Why don't they like me?" asked Cathy softly.

In the elevator, Noah said with a smile, "James, I think Cathy treats you nicely. She even address you Mister."

"Where is the difference?" James sneered and added, "If I had known that she was the slut, I would not help her that day."

Hearing James's words, Noah suddenly smiled and squinted at him. "How about you asking her out for a date? In this way, as long as you succeed, she would leave Hearst. Only in this way, can Hearst and Heidy be together."

James refused his suggestion immediately, "No way. I don't like her. Besides, even if she left, it would be impossible for Hearst to be with Heidy again. Why do I have to burn my ass to do such a meaningless thing?"

Patting him on the shoulder, Noah said seriously, "In fact, I feel something is wrong. Assistant Liu went with Hearst before. He said that Hearst didn't treat Cathy well when he rescued her. It was very likely that he grandmother had said something to Hearst. I think it has something to do with Heidy."

James was shocked and asked curiously, "So Hearst left Heidy not because that he fell in love with Cathy? Then tell me why."

"How would I know? It must be something urgent so he refused to tell us. James, if you can try your best to make Cathy fall in love with you and break up with Hearst, I think we can figure out the secrets behind all this," Noah said, patting him on the shoulder.

James frowned and said, "I'm not good at this."

Raising his eyebrows, Noah said to him jokingly, "You get along well with girls. I believe that you can handle it well. You will make a great contribution if Hearst and Heidy get back together. Then you can ask Hearst for whatever you want. As for the future, it's a piece of cake for you to dump Cathy."

James was thinking about his words carefully. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "All right. Then I'll try my best to help him out."

Noah smiled with satisfaction and said with a smile, "That's the spirit."
