Chapter 327
With a cigarette in his mouth, Harry dashingly looked at Lola. They were sitting in a private room in the restaurant. The room was reserved mainly for very important people. Lola rushed towards him and took away his cigarette.
She squashed the cigarette into the ash tray end and threw the remaining half box of expensive cigarettes into the trash can.
"Go back to Uthana if you smoke again. I'm not putting up with that nasty habit of yours."
Then she sat back into her seat and stared at Harry's stunned expression. "Well, I will do whatever my wife wants." Harry gave in.
"Why are you so sweet and cheeky right now? You know I've got a fian..." She stopped midway through her sentence when she saw Harry's warning eye expression.
At that moment, a waiter knocked at the door and brought in the hotpot soup.
Harry was dismayed when he saw the red spicy soup. "But, for my wife, I will risk my life!" He thought to himself. He's not used to eating spicy foods...
The vegetables and meat were brought in soon. Unexpectedly, Lola warmly helped Harry get the food onto his plate.
"If I finish all the food you are giving me, will you come with me tonight? Please?" Harry lazily leaned on the chair as he was observing Lola's expression. That was only the purpose on which he visited Lola today.
Lola ate a meatball to ease her anger, "Does Boss Lewis want to torture me again? If that's all that we will do, then I won't come."
Harry winked to her with a smirk, "I'll be very gentle."
Lola swallowed the meatball in her mouth expressionlessly, and then she put more food on his plate, "Finish these first. Everything."
How could she agree to have dinner with such a cruel man? She gave in to his charm again... Lola, did you want him to torture you even more?
Harry drank a lot of water because of all the spicy food that he ate. He used the chopsticks to finish everything on the plate.
Lola continued to put more and more food onto his plate. He obediently ate everything that she made him consume. His stomach was so full now.
He just wanted to keep her by his side even if he had to go to hospital because of it. He just desired to do whatever it took to win her over.
Finally, they ate everything in the hotpot. Lola remained emotionless even when Harry had drunk several bottles of water already.
They walked out of the hotpot restaurant. Harry sweetly opened the car door for Lola.
Lola looked at Harry and she could immediately tell that he was not feeling well. "He's really good at endurance! I wish he could always be patient and sweet like this." She thought.
"Boss Lewis, shall we drink some wine?" She asked deliberately. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
She remembered something in the past. He drank wine after eating hotpot. He went to the hospital immediately after that.
Harry lifted his eyebrows when he heard that. It seemed she wouldn't stop bullying him until he collapsed.
"Come with me tonight. We can drink together all night long!" He was staring straight at her with some implied sensual meaning in his words.
Obviously, she was not interested, "No, thank you. I have a date tonight. Please just send me back home." "No matter what you will do. It won't work on me." She thought to herself in a determined attitude.
She's going on a date?! Harry fought back the stomach cramps and looked at her irritably, "A date with whom?"
Lola just glared and said, "Boss Lewis, can't you realize that I'm already rejecting your proposal? I won't go with you as I already have a fiance." And then, she told him what she was really thinking of.
"You don't need to do anything for me. It's impossible for us to be together anymore. Harry, we'd better never meet again. That's what I really want."
The air in the car suddenly turned cold. Not a single word was heard after that. It was really uncomfortable.
Joey was focusing on his driving. He chose to ignore the conversation between them. He would just get stressed as the couple were always like this.
"I was wrong. Sorry, Lola. But you can't push me away like this!" Harry ended his statement with a heavy sigh.
Lola sneered and looked out the window, "It's too late. No matter what you're going to do to Herren, we will get married. I advise you to marry Cherry as well. Move on, Harry. We would go our own ways and never meet again."
"Lola, you know that you can't take the consequences if you piss me off. I can do anything I want." It was an obvious threat. Harry was already on the brink of desperation.
"Stop the car!" She didn't want to stay with him for one more minute.
"Drive to the hospital!" Harry's loud and clear order put Joey in a dilemma. He didn't know if he should stop or continue driving.
And then Lola found that Harry was already sweating profusely. His face looked pale. Suddenly, Lola wasn't that mad at him anymore. She was now very concerned.
Although at first she wanted to torture him, she now felt uncomfortable when she realized that he was really ill.
Under this unusual situation, Lola didn't know what to say nor think.
They arrived at Zoria Private Hospital soon. Harry glanced at Lola and tried to push her off the car.
"Leave me in the car! Go by yourself!" She frantically refused to accompany him as she turned back to get in the car again.
Harry winked at Joey, so Joey drove away at once.
"Without your help, how could I get into the hospital?" He pretended to lean on her shoulder so weakly.
Lola looked at him and doubted him. She knew he was just exaggerating.
But she was not about to argue with a patient. It was not the right practice in a hospital.
So she took his arm and draped it on her shoulder and held him with another hand.
Harry smiled with satisfaction at the sight of this sweet gesture.
She struggled for a moment, but did not break free. Harry was a bit heavy, too.
This would be the last time that she allowed him to get close to her! Lola determinedly convinced herself.
In the hospital
Lola registered and entered the senior ward with Harry.
Chuck was still in Uthana, but the doctor in charge of Harry was also an expert. He was the second best doctor in the hospital, with Chuck being the best.
Harry was sprawled in the hospital bed. The doctor put on a drip for him, made some procedural routines, and left.
Lola was also about to leave the ward with the doctor, but she was stopped by Harry. "Lola, how can you leave a patient here alone!" Harry complained to her in a sweet face.
Did she really want to leave? Didn't she feel guilty or worried that he was in such a pitiful situation?
"I know you are a patient. But does that have anything to do with me? Call Cherry if you like." She stopped and turned around. There was no feelings in her eyes when she stared at him.
She had registered for him and sent him to the ward. She did what she had to do. She's done here.
Harry felt really bad. Then he realized that when he treated her like that, she must have felt even worse.
Harry waved to Lola, telling her to come in. Lola didn't move a step but just fixed her eyes on him.
It seemed that she indeed wanted to stay away from him. Harry smiled bitterly. How deep did he hurt her? She must have hurt so much because of the way that she refused him right now.
"Lola, please don't leave until I fall asleep. Please." He tried to gently bargain with her.
Lola felt that she couldn't bear that bittersweet smile on his face. She slowly made her way back into the ward.
And then he smiled like that again while holding her waist with his arms and resting his face on her belly.
Lola wanted to immediately refuse. This was what her instincts told her. But she didn't move when she saw the infusion needle in his hand.
Harry really wanted to kiss her when he smelled the her signature perfume.
But he couldn't rush. He would like her to accept him by herself, and he didn't mind to chase her back.
He moved his body so Lola could sit beside him and said, "Lola, I will capture your heart again!"
The sudden confession confused Lola. Did he want to chase her again?
She sneered and took her hand out of his, "Harry, I won't react to anything you'll do! I already learned my lesson."
He though he could make all things up by chasing her again? He was being funny and overconfident. Did he know that she could never trust him again? After everything he had done to her, she would never believe in him anymore.
