Love Is a Sweet Addiction

However, what she did not know was that the man had seen her every move in the back seat through the rearview mirror.

When the car stopped at the entrance of a nearby hospital, she sniffled and said to the man in the front seat with a grateful expression, “I’m sorry for using you just now. And … thank you.”

After that, she pushed the door open and got out of the car.

However, because the car was too high-end, she didn’t know how to open the door.

Terence pushed the door and got out of the car. Then, he pulled open the door of the back seat and bent down to carry Esther out of the car, heading straight for the hospital.

“What are you doing?” Esther instinctively whispered.

He hugged her. Although she was injured and felt dizzy, she wasn’t that weak. Moreover, he was an unfamiliar man she had just met.

“Since it was my car that hit you like this, I naturally should be responsible for you.” Terence’s voice was as cold as ever.

Esther was shocked by his actions and wanted to ask him to let her down. But she refrained herself from doing so when she saw his cold and handsome face.

Fortunately, the emergency room was on the first floor. Terence placed her on the bed in the treatment room and left her to a doctor.

Just as Terence was about to leave, Esther suddenly called him, “Please wait a moment!”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

The man paused and turned around to look at her. “What? Haven’t you done it yet?”

“No….” Esther shook her head with an awkward expression, “I …. I don’t have any money. Can you lend me some?”

“No problem.” Terence took out a few large bills from his wallet and handed them to the nurse beside him.

The nurse was so excited that she blushed when Terence looked at her. She took the money and walked towards the toll office.

“And … may I have your name and telephone number, sir?”

“What? Do you want to hit on me?”

“Of course not. I’ll return the money to you another day.”

“No need. I won’t sell out my personal information for such little money.”

This man was very difficult to communicate with and get along with. This was Esther’s first impression of him.

Since he said no, Esther thought she should be thick-skinned. Anyway, this man seemed to be quite rich, so he shouldn’t care about such a mere trifle.

“Thank you then.” She looked down and did not dare to meet his sharp gaze.

A familiar female voice suddenly sounded at the door of the treatment room. “May I ask if Esther is in your department? Where is she?”

It was Anne’s voice. Esther was stunned, wondering why she came.

Under the guidance of nurses, Anne directly broke into the treatment room where Esther was and saw the two people inside.

When Anne saw Terence standing in front of the bed, she was obviously surprised. Then, like many women, a wisp of astonishment appeared in her eyes. If James hadn’t stabbed her in the back with his finger, she would have kept looking at Terence in fascination.

Anne was alerted that she should get down to business. She cleared her throat and scolded Esther with a reproachful gaze, “Esther, it turns out you are seeing your lover here. Grandma asked me to bring you back. Hurry up and follow me!”

As Anne spoke, she grabbed Esther and pulled her down, completely ignoring whether she was injured or not. Esther almost fell out of bed. Fortunately, Terence next to her lent her a hand.
