Chapter 537 Interrupted
If she had truly wanted to reject him, given Audrey’s no-nonsense nature, Colin would have already received a stinging the face and been pushed away coldly. But instead, she barely even made a token effort to struggle.
Colin watched her say one thing while her body said another, and his lips curved into an uncontrollable grin, his eyes g with triumphant satisfaction. He leaned in closer, pushing his luck to the limit.
“Fine. I gave you a chance to say no, and you didn’t take it.” His smile was roguish, but his voice carried a new, unshaka “So I’m making the call. If you really want to go abroad, I support you. That’s your dream, and I won’t stand in your way flying over to see you.”
He paused, then added with deliberate emphasis, “As your boyfriend.”
Audrey shot him a sidelong glance of disdain, but her eyes sparkled with barely concealed mirth. “I never said yes to you shameless.”
Colin wasn’t offended. Instead, he laughed softly, his gaze fixed on her lips as she kept talking. The moonlight, the faint m the humidifier, her subtle fragrance all wove together into an invisible net that ensnared his reason. He thought she looke adorable in that moment, and the urge to kiss her overwhelmed everything else.
And so he did.
Colin leaned down slowly. She caught his intent and her breath hitched.
A thousand thoughts raced through her mind, but in the end, they all dissolved into a warm, sweet flutter in her chest. She push him away. Instead, she unconsciously twisted her fingers together, then closed her eyes.
Their noses were almost touching. The tension in the room had reached its peak, when suddenly, a weak but startled gasp from the hospital bed behind them.
“Wh… what the hell?!”
Killian had opened his eyes at the worst possible moment. His head wrapped, he stared in shock at the two of them hovering inches apart, his eyes wide with disbelief as if witnessing the collapse of his entire worldview.
The romantic vibe burst instantly.
After a few seconds of dead silence, Killian finally managed to croak, “So… all this time, Audrey is actually your girl?”
Colin’s face went from flushed to thunderous in a split second. His fury at having his moment ruined surged straight to his sau turned and glared at the clueless man on the bed.
“Killian, of all the times to wake up, you had to pick this exact moment?” Colin gritted his teeth.
Killian looked deeply wronged. He tried to move his face but winced in pain. “I can’t control when my brain decides to ma And I didn’t know you two would be having… this kind of moment in my hospital room!”:
Colin nearly taughed at Killian’s pitiful attempt to play the victim “You’re playing the victim nowe Court steck the bandaged man thaven’t even gotten to you yet. You and your pathetic fighting skills, barely able to hold you

Killian shrank back, unable to argue. The alcohol had worn off, and his mind was racing now. He looked around the room mo carefully. It was enormous, with a stunning ocean view, leather sofas, a private bathroom, premium plants, and a top-tier air purification system.
This wasn’t a standard emergency room. It was the kind of private VIP suite that money alone couldn’t always secure.
A lightbulb went off in Killian’s head. On this island, someone who could get a room like this, with a doctor on standby in the middle of the night…
He thought back to how he’d acted like the big shot leading them around. His throat tightened.
“So…” Killian’s voice came out dry and strained. “Can you at least tell me who you really are? I’m starting to think I seriously misjudged you.”
Before Colin could respond, the hospital room door swung open again. Rapid footsteps echoed as several figures rushed in.
Justin was at the front. “Audrey!” He spotted his sister, crossed the room in three swift strides, and grasped her shoulders, scan her from head to toe. “Are you okay? Did they hurt you? Did anyone lay a hand on you?”
