The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 638

Chapter 638 

Inhaled, exhaled, compression! 

They continued this manner, repeating the cycle endlessly, never faltering in their efforts. 

After ten rounds, Mia slowly emerged from her unconscious state and opened her eyes, only to find Haylan administering artificial respiration. 

Her eyes widened, and she attempted to speak, but her throat convulsed, causing her intense coughing. 

With each cough, the water she had swallowed forcefully sprayed Haylan’s mouth. 

Haylan quickly stood up, creating distance between himself and Mia, as he expelled the water from his mouth. 

“Mimil 

Ceci’s face lit up with relief upon seeing Mia awaken. She eagerly rushed over. “Mimi, are you alright?” 

Mia coughed vigorously, expelling the water from her mouth and stomach until her breathing and heartbeat returned normal. 

Sitting up, she gasped for air and glanced around. Just as she was about to reassure Ceci that she was alright, her expression abruptly contorted in pain. She clutched her calf and abdomen, grimacing. “Ouch, it hurts!” 

Haylan and Ceci finally noticed that her calf muscle had swollen, appearing rigid. They suddenly recalled Mia’s earlier mention of a leg cramp. 

“Mr. Jaber… Ceci’s voice was filled with urgency as she looked at Haylan. 

“It’s just a leg cramp, a minor issue. Let me handle it.” 

Haylan wiped his mouth and approached Mia, gently lifting her into his arms. With a determined stride, he carried her toward the lobby. 

Mia blushed as Haylan held her in his arms, her cheeks glowing with embarrassment. She couldn’t help but bury her head in the crook of his embrace, her heart filled with a delightful sweetness. 

Being intimate with Haylan was a dream come true, and she was overjoyed beyond words. 

However, the recent brush with danger left her feeling self–conscious. She hid her face, not wanting Haylan to see the mixed emotions within her. 

Upon witnessing the scene, Ceci felt a twinge of disappointment. 

However, she swiftly regained her composure and pulled out her phone, discreetly capturing multiple snapshots of Haylan and Mia from behind. 

“Hehehe, Mr. Jaber, let’s see how you can explain this,” Ceci thought with a mischievous smile. 

Having received treatment from Haylan, Ceci couldn’t deny that a tiny spark of attraction had ignited within her toward him. 

But in matters of love or any other emotion, Ceci firmly believed in timing and prioritizing the one who came first. 

Haylan held a special place in Mia’s heart as her old classmate and someone she had developed feelings. 

As Mia’s loyal best friend, Ceci couldn’t possibly cross the line and take away the love she had for Haylan. 

Haylan carried Mia into the lobby and carefully placed her on the sofa. Then, he lifted her legs high. 

“Haylan, what are you doing?” Mia’s face flushed even more profoundly. 

This position was utterly humiliating! 

To make matters worse, from Haylan’s perspective, he had a clear view of every inch of her. 

Wearing nothing but her swimsuit added to her embarrassment, making her feel utterly exposed. 

“Please, don’t move.” 

Haylan’s face grew solemn as he took hold of Mia’s feet, gently aligning her heels and toes. He massaged her calves with deliberate and soothing movements, gradually releasing the stiffness and tension.
