CHAPTER 373: CHAPTER 386: AFFECTION

Her tears and snot were all over her face, looking quite a mess, yet at this moment, she couldn’t care less about that. "Kyle, hang in there, I... I’ll take you to the hospital now..."

As she spoke, she tried to take him down the stairs, but he held her back tightly, burying his head deep in the crook of her shoulder. "What I need has never been a doctor."

His mother was wrong; he had found his destiny, and he was destined not to be lonely all his life!

Because his destiny loves him like this!

The next morning when Mabel Quinn woke up, she found Kyle Kinston still asleep, which was quite rare. Usually, he was awake before her, and as a result, she didn’t often have the chance to see him sleeping.

Looking at his sleeping face, she recalled the scene from last night. She still had a lingering fear; his expression of pain made her worried. Yet he insisted on not going to the hospital, directly telling her that the Kinston Family had their own medical team and research into hidden illnesses. He was well aware of his own body and assured her there was no problem.

"What exactly is your hidden illness?" she couldn’t help but ask.

"Just consider it a unique disease of the Kinston Family," he said, then looked at her. "Would you find me repulsive because of this illness?"

She quickly shook her head. Repulsive... Umm, how could that word sound so strange?

Then the two of them watched a movie together, after which she chatted with him quite a bit about her childhood, and then she unknowingly fell asleep.

Mabel gazed at Kyle in a trance, not even realizing that the eyes in front of her had already opened.

"Do you like watching me that much?" Only when his voice sounded did she suddenly come to her senses.

In a flash, her face turned red, but she still honestly nodded, "I do."

"Then aren’t you going to show me just how much you like me?" he continued.

Show? Her eyes twinkled as she looked at the person in front of her, his eyes like enchanting whirlpools, carrying a hint of morning haze. His usually neat hair was disheveled now, yet it exuded a kind of sexiness. A high-bridged nose, slightly open thin lips, a slender neck, and those clavicles that sparked imagination...

It was simply a blatant temptation!

Mabel’s heart only struggled for 0.01 seconds before she decided to follow her heart and kissed his lips to show just how much she liked him.

Dorian Howards lounged on the sofa at Francine Howards’ place, playing with the lighter in his hand. "How long do you plan to stay in J City? Auntie called me yesterday, saying she misses you and asked me to keep an eye on you, to not let you cause any trouble."

Francine Howards frowned slightly and said, "Did you come here just to tell me not to cause trouble?"

"If you really anger Kyle, then not even the Howards Family can protect you. Auntie is probably worried about this," Dorian said.

Both were smart people, so some words were clear without needing to be said.

Francine pursed her lips and remained silent. Dorian shrugged his shoulders and continued, "During these days you’ve been in J City, you should have seen that Kyle is serious about Mabel Quinn—it’s not a casual fling. We’ve known Kyle since he was nine years old; have we ever seen him so devoted to a woman? If you try to interfere now, you’ll only end up hurting yourself."
