Uncontrollable Fondness novel Chapter 32

I believe you. This was such a simple and yet meaningful statement and only James was willing to believe her! With James’s trust, Mia let go of all her guard and gently fainted in his arms.

It was that horrific scene of the accident. The mangled car, fragments, bright red bloodstains, bleeding heads, an unconscious woman in a white dress…

Thereafter when the air started to clear, she saw that teenager waving at her, “Don’t fear, I’m here to save you!”

“Help me!” The instinctive waving of hands was seized and held down. The man gently massaged her palm and then pulled to one side. Whose hand was this? Was it the young man in the dream? Mia struggled to open her eyes and James’s clean face filled her sight.

“Davies…” She wanted to sit up but James laughed and pushed her down. “Your fever has just subsided and your injuries haven’t all recovered, don’t move unnecessarily.”

How comforting were those words! Mia was stunned, her pain was at least cut by half. She stared at him in a daze.

A pair of lustful eyes swept over her and the clean and slender fingers flicked at the IV tube and said, “Have a good rest, I guarantee that after this drip is complete, you’ll be able to get off the bed.”

“Yes.” She believed everything that James said just as he believed her. When she saw that James turned and was about to leave, Mia’s heart sank and called him in desperation, “Professor Davies!”

James calmly turned around and blinked. He behaved like a big brother. He didn’t speak but tilted his head to look at her. It appeared that he looked straight into her heart.

“That… I really didn’t contaminate my blood.” Mia swallowed her saliva several times before deciding what to say. James nodded and walked towards her. His sincerity was transmitted through those beautiful eyes, “Then can you tell me before the operation, who were you in contact with?”

“Nobody.” Mia searched her memories, “They were all doctors and nurses.” She concentrated and didn’t remember seeing anyone who was out of place nor abnormal. She looked apologetically at James.

“Okay, perhaps the problem wasn’t on your body but on the equipment. It’s alright, have some sleep and you will feel much better. The clean hands brushed against her face and gently pulled her eyelids down. He pressed his cheeks against hers. He stood up and walked out of the room and closed the door.

Her cheeks blushed red and she opened her eyes and stared at the door as if James was on the other side. Her heart was touched and she savored the sweetness. She touched where James touched her face and giggled and blushed like a cherry blossom in spring.

William pushed open the door and saw her expression. He was frustrated and glared at Mia. He ordered, “Take her back!”

Her heart sank. The beautiful event was shattered. When she saw William, Mia’s face turned pale. She felt as if she fell from heaven straight to hell.

The men began to push her metal bed, Mia sat up and objected, “William, I want to stay here!”

“You want to stay here so that you can conduct your scheme again right?” All the evil deeds and blame were shifted onto her, “My Sophia cannot afford any more complications. I want to watch over you personally to stop your evil ways!”

Mia cannot bear others accusing her and she instinctively defended her innocence, “It’s not me, I didn’t do anything to her! All this happened because of karma. It’s your retribution for being cruel and heartless. You should be aware now, once you’ve sinned, the retribution will not only be on you but also on your family members.”

“You’re asking… for it!” he dived towards her and his fist tightened…

She was so scared that she closed her eyes but the expected pain didn’t materialize. She carefully opened her eyes and saw that William had withdrawn his hand. He mumbles, “I’ll let you keep your life for now. If my Sophia recovers, then you’ll be all right. If she doesn’t, you, your friend, Collin, and his entire family fortunes will all be gone.”

“I am not involved with Collin. You can’t harm someone innocent!” She couldn’t endure and said. She was desperate to cut off all ties. William was ruthless, “They live or die all depends on your performance!”

They returned to the Brown residences. To others, this was heaven but to her it was hell. This time there was no one to restrict her movement. She could walk around as she wished. She could also walk out of that place and never look back. But there was an imaginary lock and chains around her. She didn’t dare to step outside.

Brooke, Collin and his family fortunes were in her hands. She cannot be so selfish not to consider their well being.

Sophia’s body took a turn for the worse when she received the contaminated blood. She needs to recuperate for a period of time before she could recover.

This period of time William practically didn’t go home. He must have been taking care of Sophia.
