Please Love Me, Mr. George novel Chapter 85

He pinched at his eyebrows and said to the phone after pausing for a minute, “It’s really late now. Just stay in the police station for one night and learn this lesson. I’ll ask Toby to handle this tomorrow.”

“Dennis...” Olivia wanted to protest something but the call just ended.

After hanging up the phone, Dennis looked at me with resignation, “You don’t really need to call the police. You can just call the police.”

I dropped my eyes and fiddled with my fingers, “Were you the one who gave her the key or input her fingerprints? If you want her to stay in the mansion in the future, you can just notify me first. I can just sell you my half of the house and move out.”

“Clara!” He sounded angry. “We are a couple!”

I nodded, “I know, so I called the police. After all, it’s our home and not her home.”

He got nothing to talk back and stroked his forehead, “Sure, come here.” Then he nudged over and motioned me.

I got what he was talking about and didn’t really to contradict. I straight stood up and lay next to him.

He grinned, “You are surly smart.”

I ignored him and just fell asleep.

On the next day, I slept in since I went to sleep late last night.

There was the sound of birds chirping when I opened my eyes and for I second, I thought I was in the mansion.

I stretched my arms subconsciously and hit Dennis naturally. I looked up and saw him singing papers.

Being hit on the face by my palms, he looked at me coolly, “Are you up?”

I drew back my hand and nodded, “Yeah.”

Belatedly, I realized that I was in the hospital and got out of the bed that was not as cozy as the one at home.

My body often got cold at night and would trace the heat automatically, so Dennis had been squeezed to the edge of the side. The big spot that I hogged was pretty obvious when I sprang out of the bed.

Feeling awkward, I lowered my head, “Sorry.” I really didn’t mean to fight the bed with a patient.

He smiled and put away the files, “Are you hungry?”

Then he moved his body to the center of the bed.

The nurse then came in to give him an IV and stole a glance at me when she was done with putting him on tubes. It looked like that she didn’t come in before as I was sleeping.

After the nurse left, I answered, “I’m all right.” Then I went into the bathroom to freshen up.

Seeing that he still had several fluid bottles left when I came out, I asked, “Do you have anything that you want to eat?”

He beamed, “It’s up to you.”

I didn’t want to waste my breath with him and just grabbed my purse.

I bumped into Mario with medical record when I came out.

He must be checking on Dennis.

He greeted, “Thank you for last night!”

I paused for a second and remembered that he was referring to him sleeping in the mansion.

I shook my head, “No sweat. After all, you went through all those troubles for Dennis.”

He cracked a smiled. “Where are you going?”

“To get the breakfast. Did you have it yet?”

He shook his head, “I just got to the hospital.”

“Do you have anything particular you want to eat?”

“I’m not picky.”

I nodded and then went into the elevator.

Daisy called and wondered how come we were both not at home last night.
