Chapter 222
Selena retreated in a flash. “That’s just vulgar!” With that, she left the ward hastily to get Pierre some food. Witnessing her fleeing the scene with a blush on her face made him laugh merrily and without holding back his emotions. Before knowing her, he seldom laughed like that.
After lunch with her, he leaned back against the bed as he watched her put away the utensils, while she stole a glance at him before continuing to clean up. “It sure feels nice to be able to enjoy being taken care of by someone else!” Pierre said.
In response, she merely gave him a side glance.
However, life while taking care of Pierre in the hospital wasn’t all that bad. Both of their assistants sent their laptop and necessary documents to the hospital, so they were able to simultaneously work and have fun. One day, it so happened that Niall and Linda came together, and Niall was enraptured upon noticing Linda’s beauty. After that, both Selena and Pierre gave their instructions to their respective assistants.
“Linda, thank you for your hard work. I know it’s tiring to work and take care of Juniper at the same time.”
“It’s okay, Miss Yard. It’s part of my job. Other than the acquisition of Yard Group, the rest of the tasks aren’t that hard to deal with. Besides, Juniper has been a good girl.”
“Okay, I will leave things up to you. I’ll buy you a lavish meal later on!”
“That’s a promise that I won’t forget!” Linda smiled. “I’ll be leaving now, Miss Yard.”
Upon noticing that Linda was leaving, Niall followed suit after taking all the documents with him. Trotting behind her, he commented, “Our bosses sure know how to flirt while they are working,NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
right?” When Linda heard that, she merely cast him a glance without saying anything. Undeterred, Niall went on to ask, “When do you think they might get married?”
Despite his continued efforts to strike a conversation with her, she didn’t seem to buy his tactics, as she only smiled at him politely before entering the lift. Seeing that Linda was disinterested, Niall thought, Pretty women sure are hard to please.
Right after Linda got into her car, she recalled Niall’s comment. It’s true that Pierre and Selena might flirt while they work. Although they’re in a hospital, nothing is impossible. With that thought in mind, she got out of her car again. There were quite a few flower shops near the hospital, so she bought a bouquet of flowers from one of them before returning to the ward.
“Oh, Linda! Have you forgotten something?”
“Nah, it’s just that the ward looks a little dull, so I bought some flowers to help liven up the atmosphere, which might help lift both of your moods. If it improves Mr. Pierre’s mood, he might recover sooner.” Holding a vase in her hands, she arranged the flowers in it before wetting the petals with some water.
“Your assistant sure is considerate. However, haven’t you noticed that I wish to spend more time here? I am provided for as long as I stay here, and I can flirt with Miss Yard, so I am not in a hurry to leave.” Pierre seemed rather self-conceited.
Noticing that Linda was a little weirded out by him, Selena snapped, “Pierre, don’t you have any decorum? You should shut up if you have nothing appropriate to say!” Then, she turned to console Linda. “That’s just how this b*stard is, so you can ignore him. By the way, the flowers are so pretty! Thank you, Linda!”
“You don’t have to be so formal with me. Remember to sprinkle some water on them from time to time so that they bloom for a longer while. I’ll be leaving for real now. Bye!”
“Bye!” After Linda left, Selena leaned in to smell the flowers. “They smell so nice.”
“Do you like flowers?”
“Of course! All girls do.” Then, she did as Linda told by sprinkling water on the flowers.
