Chapter 306: Chapter 306: Truly Hopeless

Chloe Reed: "..."

’This man is truly hopeless.’ 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

He said he loved her, but the moment she asked him to do something, he’d find all sorts of excuses.

She couldn’t be bothered to argue with him anymore.

She had tried everything—sweet-talking and scolding—but he refused to listen, and she was at her wit’s end.

Chloe Reed stood up to leave.

"Ugh..."

But just then, the man on the hospital bed suddenly let out a muffled groan.

She stopped in her tracks and turned to look at him, her elegant brows furrowing. "What’s wrong?" she asked.

Walker, however, didn’t answer. He just squeezed his eyes shut and furrowed his brow, looking like he was in agony.

She couldn’t help but take a few steps closer, reaching out to touch his forehead to check for a fever.

But in the next second, he shot out a hand, grabbed her wrist, and with a sudden tug, pulled her into his embrace.

His arms were like iron clamps, holding her tight.

Chloe struggled angrily. "You tricked me!"

"The wound on my back hasn’t healed. If you keep struggling, it’ll tear wide open."

Walker said in a low voice, holding her tight.

An image of his blood-soaked back flashed through Chloe’s mind. He’d taken a bullet for her...

She stopped struggling, her voice turning cold and hard. "Let go."

"Chloe..."

Walker closed his eyes, inhaling her scent deeply as his voice grew even hoarser. "I haven’t held you like this in so long. I’ve missed you."

Chloe, however, remained rigid. "This hug you tricked me into... Is it fun?"

The moment she spoke, she could feel the arms around her tighten.
