Chapter 225 Unexpected Accident 4
It sounded like a blatant provocation. Dennis pursed his lips and his dark eyes overflowed with anger.
“What gave you the confidence to assume Clara would be into you?”
I...
Hank raised his eyebrows, looked at me very seriously, and smiled, “Clara, what do you think of me?
Do you hate me?”
Hank’s question was tricky. I could feel that Dennis added pressure with his hand holding on to me.
I pursed my lips, a little bored, and did not speak.
Seeing that I was silent, Dennis looked at Hank sarcastically, “Clara is an awesome woman, but Mr. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
Gibson, you should keep in mind that she is already a married woman.”
The conversation between these two was really boring.
Dennis gave Hank a cold stare, grabbed my hand and we went straight to the room I had stayed in.
It was just a few steps away but it almost felt like he lifted me up and carried me inside.
As soon as the bedroom door was closed, Dennis shoved me into the corner.
The man put his strong hand on my waist, looked down at me - But I could still hear the restrained
anger from his voice, “I think you owe me an explanation.”
I pouted my lips and sighed, “Nothing happened between him and me. He hasn’t rested well these
days dealing with his parents' memorial service and funeral. So he fell asleep there just now. I helped
cover a quilt on him. Afterward, he grabbed on me - This is why you saw what you saw when you
walked in.”
After a pause, looking at his handsome and somewhat haggard face, I apologized, “I know, in fact, I
shouldn’t be too nice to Hank. But Dennis, I can’t turn a blind eye to him - If it weren’t for him, my life
might have ended long before. It has nothing to do with whether I like him or not. He saved my life and
he was there for me to help me through the darkest days. Now he is in his and it’s time to pay him
back. Dennis, I hope you will understand. Will you?”
I couldn’t and I would never turn a blind eye to Hank. I wasn’t the best person but Hank did pull me
back from a terrible time.
Dennis pursed his lips and looked at me for quite a while with his beautiful eyes. He finally spoke, “Of
course, I got you, babe!”
After a brief pause, Dennis said with a gentle voice, “You can help him. But keep a decent distance,
okay? Don’t get too close.”
Dennis was wearing a long black woolen coat today, and there were still drops of water from the
melting snow on his shoulders. I hadn’t seen him for a few days.
His hair had grown a little longer, which made him even more haggard.
I nodded. These days, Dennis had been so busy. And now we finally had some time together, I would
not want to waste the time arguing with him all the time!
Dennis hugged me and his lips gently kissed me on my forehead. He smiled and said in a hoarse
voice, “Let’s go on a date tonight. What do you have in mind for dinner?”
I was a bit surprised, “Are we not having dinner here with the Gibson family?”
“No, we won’t. I haven’t seen you in days. I want to spend some alone time with you!” He hugged me
closely into his arms, “Did you miss me, babe?”
I could hear his heartbeats, and I couldn’t help smiling, “What are we having tonight?”
Dennis pulled me back a little and held my face. He caressed my face, “Anything you want to eat? So
you don’t miss me?”
Knowing that Dennis just wanted to hear me say that I missed him, I couldn’t say it at the moment for
some reason.
Looking at him, I said, “Let’s eat Korean food, I’m craving Korean bibimbap.”
He chuckled, “Well, but do you miss me?”
I...
He lowered his head, buried it on my neck, “I thought about you all night in the hotel yesterday, and I
have been wanting to hold you like this.”
It seemed that he had never said anything sweet to me. So when I heard this sentence, I couldn’t help
but look up at him. I saw the sparkles in his eyes, very bright.
My heart arose an instant warmth.
“When I saw the snow outside in the yard in the morning, I was wondering if you’d get a good night’s
sleep in the hotel last night. After all, the hotel is not like home. There is no heating, and you might not
have enough clothes. When I saw you just now, you seemed haggard." I spoke in a really low voice.
But he listened carefully and burst into laughter, “Well, you can make up to me in the evening. And all
will be fine!”
I could not help but bow my head and blushed when I heard his charming words.
I told Yara that Dennis and I were going out for dinner. Yara had no reason not to let us go.
Besides, having Dennis by my side made it much easier. Yara didn’t have any reason to hinder us even
though it was against her will.
Dennis and I were out of Gibson’s villa. He drove me to a Korean restaurant downtown.
The restaurant was crowded tonight, but fortunately, he chose a VIP area, so we could have some
privacy.
The environment was elegant and quiet. The waiter led us and seated us down. And then Dennis
looked at me and said, “What else do you want to eat besides bibimbap?”
I rested my chin on my arms, looked at the brightly lit city downstairs, and I couldn’t help but say, “I
don’t mind. Anything you want to eat!”
He glanced at me. Seeing that I was enjoying the scenery outside the window, he didn’t ask any more
questions. After ordering food, he looked at me in a daze and said, “What are your plans for this Spring
Festival?”
I stopped looking at the sweet view, looked at Dennis, and said, “Same as last year?”
After saying so, it occurred to me immediately that it would not be the same anymore - I realized that
old Mr. George was the one that had kept all family together. And with old Mr. George passing and that
Andrew George and his wife were not close to us, the new year celebrations wouldn’t be as festive as
before.
Thinking of this, I pursed my lips in silence.
Of course, Dennis knew how I felt and he saw my worried look. He said, after a pause, “Perhaps the
Kennedy family would invite you over. Do you have any plans?”
I almost forgot that Link Kennedy had recognized me as his goddaughter. After thinking about it, I said,
“Well, I guess I am staying in City P this New Year’s Eve.”
Diana and Alex Thomson were still abroad, and I had no other relatives in Newton Town. Dennis’s aunt,
Marcus Thomson, Mario Bennett, and the Kennedy family - They were all in City P.
Thinking of Mario, I spoke before Dennis did, “Is everything handled clear at the hospital?”
He had been busy for so many days and he was worn out.
The waiter served the dishes. Dennis mixed the bibimbap and handed it to me, “Well, I guess we will
have to wait until after the new year to figure everything out. Don’t worry, let’s focus on the new year’s
celebrations first.”
Seeing that he didn’t seem to take this to heart, I couldn’t help but feel slightly stunned. I said, “Mario
has been in charge of the hospital’s businesses. Now that such a big thing has happened, what does
he say?”
“He’s handling it,” Dennis said easily. He was roasting meat and continued to say, “About my aunt,
keep her company for a few days, babe. I may have to go on a business trip tomorrow, but I will be
back in a few days.”
I nodded, and I looked at him with my chin in my hand. I said with sadness, “It’s almost the new year.
And you are still running around busy with work.”
He smiled lightly, raised his hand, and rubbed my hair, “Just bear with it for a little longer, okay? I
promise I will make up for you. Let’s plan our wedding ceremony properly. Do you prefer Eastern style
or Western?” lightnoveldaily.com
