C13 I Promise You

Realizing that he was too reckless, Finlay held onto Serafina, who was lying on the ground, and felt the heat from Serafina's body. Serafina had a fever.

Finlay asked, "You should be having a fever. Go back to your room and lie down to rest. I'll get someone to buy medicine for you." Finlay did not receive a reply from Serafina. He was annoyed and thought to himself, "This woman is really soft-hearted. What does she want?"

Finlay slightly pushed her away, but he still supported her. He saw that Serafina's eyes were tightly shut, and her face was pale. Not good! Serafina had fainted.

Finlay, who was surprised, almost let go of her. Serafina, who was lying on the ground, almost fell to the ground. Finlay reacted quickly and hugged Serafina, making her lean on him.

A dull sound came from her chest. Serafina's forehead was pressed against Finlay's heart.

The situation had happened so suddenly that Finlay had not been able to react for a long time.

After a long time, Finlay let go of the hand that was holding Serafina's shoulder and straightened her body.

Unexpectedly, Serafina tilted her head to the side and fell onto his body. Her warm breath made him very uncomfortable.

Finlay was stunned. He touched his burning forehead. Without any time to think, he carried Serafina and walked downstairs.

It was already dark. The lights in the corridor were switched on, so Finlay had no time to check the switches. He could only go down the stairs in the darkness.

"Damn it!"

He should have noticed her discomfort. He could feel that her body temperature was a little hotter than normal, and the redness on her face was also abnormal. Why didn't he think of it?

'Could it be because of the feeling in my body just now?' Thinking of this, Finlay immediately shifted his gaze away.

Harvey rushed to the hospital in a hurry and saw Finlay staring at the patient who was receiving an intravenous drip with a complicated expression. He frowned and was about to go home when he suddenly received a call from Finlay. Judging from the voice, he was not in a good mood.

"What's wrong?" Harvey asked as he crept in.

‘Don’t be so sad. What kind of fate does this pair have? It’s been two times. It’s been two times. Do they really have to come to the hospital? Do they really have to ask me to come and deliver the things to them?’ Harvey wailed in his heart.

"Harvey, I almost killed her..." Finlay raised her eyes and looked at Harvey with sadness in her eyes.

"What did you say?" Harvey asked in disbelief.

Finlay slowly raised his hands and laughed bitterly, "I almost killed her with my hands."

Looking at the person lying on the bed, he felt a lingering fear. Thinking of his impulsiveness, he felt a chill down his spine.

"What happened?"

Something must have happened between the two of them. Otherwise, Finlay would not be in such a daze.

Harvey thought that Finlay had fallen asleep.

However, Finlay slowly opened her mouth and said, "From this day onwards, I want you to help me investigate that person, Chasel."

"Okay, sure."

Since Finlay did not want to tell him what happened between him and Serafina, he did not ask. He investigated Chasel? Was it related to Serafina?

Harvey could not help but shudder. He knew that he could not let this happen. After all, he was already traumatized by the fact that he had betrayed the company. He could not allow such a thing to happen again.

If it was true, how much of a blow would it be to him?

The sunlight was blinding, and the awake Serafina had no choice but to close her eyes. After getting used to it, she slowly opened them again.

"Thump." Seeing the person in front of her, Serafina sat up quickly and leaned her back against the headboard.

Finlay quietly stared at Serafina, not saying a word, nor did he intend to say a word.

Serafina's eyes were wide open. She stared at Finlay's emotionless face. For a moment, she couldn't remember how she had ended up in the hospital.

After a long time, the two of them stared at each other. Neither of them spoke.

Finally, Serafina could not hold it in anymore and said, "That, how could I do this?"

There was no anger as she had expected. Finlay's tone was calm. "Eat the medicine when you wake up."

Serafina still didn't put down her guard. She just stared at Finlay. There was a phrase called the calm before the storm. Finlay, who was emotionless, was just like that.

"Be obedient and take your medicine. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that you won't do anything." His voice was extremely slow, but his gaze was as cold as ice.

Serafina took the pills that had been placed in front of the bed and ate them without any hesitation. She felt guilty and had no choice but to obey.

"Did you take it that night?" Seeing that Serafina had obediently taken the medicine, Finlay asked.

Serafina stared at Finlay. She was too calm and couldn't find any trace of the anger she had last night.

After thinking for a long time, Serafina nodded, "Yes."

"Chasel, your boyfriend!" His voice was cold and without any emotion.

Serafina was stunned. He had already found out about her relationship with Chasel so quickly. Did he know that she had broken up with Chasel?

"About that? I used to..."

"You only need to say yes or no." Finlay's eyes were cold as he interrupted Serafina.

Yes or no? It was yes last time, but now it was no. She was stubborn. In love, she would not allow herself to betray him.

"No." Serafina's face was filled with determination.

When Finlay heard this answer, a hint of a smile flashed across his eyebrows. Finlay casually crossed his legs and landed on the ground. Finlay stood up and said to Serafina, "Very good, then you can rest!"

"Wait." Seeing that Finlay was about to leave, Serafina hurriedly shouted, "Director Milton, you promised me that you wouldn't pursue Chasel."

The figure that had just stepped out stopped and said with a sneer, "I regret it!"

Serafina was stunned. If it wasn't such a serious matter, she would have thought that Finlay was a scoundrel.

What should she do now? She could give up on this relationship, but she couldn't watch as Chasel was in a sorry state.

"Bam!" Serafina jumped off the bed like an arrow leaving the bow. She hugged Finlay who was about to leave. Finlay's heart sank as he took half a step forward. "Let go!"

"No!"

How could the thin Serafina be a match for Finlay? Finlay grabbed the hands on his waist and broke them apart.

Seeing that Finlay had easily gotten rid of her, Serafina immediately squatted down.

"Is this considered hugging a thigh?" Finlay looked at Serafina coldly.

"Whatever you say!"

Serafina, who was sitting on the ground, hugged Finlay's right leg tightly and refused to let go.

"Do you think that I won't pursue this matter?" A sneer flashed across Finlay's lips. "You're too childish!"

Serafina raised her head and decided to act shamelessly. "I'm not going to let go even if I'm childish! If you promise me, I'll let go!"

"Serafina, are you taking yourself too seriously?"

Serafina was stunned. "I know, but I have no choice. I can only beg you like this! Even if this is too shameless for a girl, I can't let go. If I let go of you, I won't have a chance to beg you again!"

Finlay's heart skipped a beat. After a long time, he finally opened his mouth and said, "Get up. I promise you!"

Serafina could not believe it. She still hugged him. Finlay sighed and bent down in a squatting position. Even though he was squatting, he was still half a head taller than her.

Finlay's eyes were gentle and his thin lips parted slightly. "I promise you, but there are conditions!"

Conditions? Serafina swallowed her saliva. It couldn't be something like repaying him with his woman.
