Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317 If I Die

After her treatment, Juniper had been feeling groggy. When she opened her eyes, she saw Pierre’s face directly in front of her. “Am I dreaming? Are you really Mr. Handsome?” She sprung up from bed to hug his neck. “I missed you so much! I even dreamed of you last night!”

Pierre held her in his arms. “Is that so? I missed you, too.” Whenever he was with Juniper, he would hide his sharp edge and speak in an exceptionally gentle tone. “Mr. Handsome, why are you here?” Juniper questioned while checking him out curiously.

“I heard you summoning me in your dreams, so I came here as fast as I could.” He nudged her nose before she brushed her nose with his. Then, both of them laughed.

“Does the treatment hurt?” The smile on Pierre’s face stiffened all of a sudden. Hearing that, Juniper shook her head. “It doesn’t. I’m not afraid, either.”

“Does the medicine taste bitter?”

With a pout on her face, Juniper nodded. “Yeah, it’s bitter. I wonder how long I’ll have to take them for. They’re really bitter.”

Pierre caressed her hair, feeling sorry for her. “You’ll recover soon. After that, you won’t have to take medicine anymore.”

All of a sudden, she grabbed his hand while asking, “Mr. Handsome, can you promise me one thing?”

“Sure, just tell me.”

“If I die, can you please take care of my mother for me?”

Upon listening to her request, Pierre was overcome with a sense of melancholy, his words stuck in his throat, paining him greatly.

“I know my mother thinks I won’t die, but who knows when I’m still sick? I’ll do my best to live on, but if—I mean, what if—I died, my poor mother will be left all alone, so Mr. Handsome, you have to take care of her in my stead.”

The sight of her pleading to him was heart-wrenching. She’s so mature for her age.
