Chapter 213 Morning
Cecilia Glendon just smiled and didn’t say anything. Abbott Benson may be guilty of talking to Montague Scott, but he was certainly uncomfortable in his heart.
This man, ah, always petty.
…
Cecilia Glendon had not rested much all day, and after a long car ride, she finally rested and felt like her bones were getting crispy .
As soon as she entered the door of the hotel room she flung herself on the bed and didn’t want to move.
Abbott Benson changed his shoes and came in and saw her lying on the bed, so he walked over to her and patted her on the ass, “Go take a shower.”
“I don’t want to move …” I didn’t feel it before when I didn’t see the bed, but now once my whole body relaxed, she felt a burst of sleepiness coming on and didn’t want to move at all.
“Take a shower and go back to sleep.” Abbott Benson is still holding out.
Cecilia Glendon moved her fingers, “Hold me.”
It was two simple words, but Abbott Benson understood them.All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
He smiled a little helplessly with hooked lips, then picked her up from the bed and headed for the bathroom.
She did not move almost the whole time she was leaning on him, with no growing bones.
The shower Abbott Benson’s body naturally reacted, but see her that tired little look, in the end is heartbroken, forced to wash her clean and throw sex after he went to the cool shower.
Cecilia Glendon was drifting off to sleep when she felt herself being fished into a warm embrace, his arms were a little cool, but his chest was scorchingly hot.
“Abbott Benson …?” She called out in a daze.
“Hmm.” The man’s low voice whispered in her ear in response, “What’s wrong?”
“Sleepy …,” she said, not quite conscious.
“Go to sleep.” Abbott Benson patted her on the back, “I’ll wake you up in the morning.”
“Good …”
Cecilia Glendon couldn’t stand it anymore and fell asleep less than a minute after the answer.
Probably because she was too tired, she did not dream this night and slept until she woke up naturally.
She thought it was late, but just as she opened her eyes she heard Abbott Benson’s somber voice not far away: “Whatever you use, hold on!”
He looked like he was on the phone with someone, or maybe he was talking about company business.
Cecilia Glendon did not understand too well, only maintained the original position, turned her head to look for the voice, and then saw Abbott Benson is standing not far from the bed, the body has changed clothes, holding a cell phone in one hand, with his back to her in the phone.
He was afraid of waking Cecilia Glendon, his voice was very low, but the coldness of his tone was even colder than the temperature outside.
“I’ll talk about the specifics when I get back.” Abbott Benson listened for a long time before speaking to the person on the phone.
It’s probably something tricky, or he wouldn’t talk to people in that tone.
Cecilia Glendon bit her lower lip, and a possibility came to mind out.
Maybe … is something wrong with the company?
If he’s at the office, he shouldn’t be in trouble. And this is only half an hour from Greenwich even by plane, so he can go back perfectly.
While Cecilia Glendon was thinking about things, Abbott Benson had finished answering the phone, but he didn’t turn around, just propped his hands on the windowsill, his back looked very dull.
Cecilia Glendon sighed quietly, then sat up from the bed, “Abbott Benson.”
At first hearing her voice, Abbott Benson seemed startled as he turned around, a glint of surprise crossing his eyes, “Awake?”
“Just woke up.” Cecilia Glendon lied, “What time is it?”
He looked at the time on his phone, “Eight o’clock.”
It’s not that early.
Cecilia Glendon yawned again, “Do you have something to do today?”
Abbott Benson first shook his head and then nodded: “There’s a little something …”
He probably wanted to stay with Cecilia Glendon, but what he said on the phone earlier couldn’t be solved for a while.
Even strong as Abbott Benson, when it comes to these things still do not know how to choose.
“Then I’ll go straight to the hospital later, you just stay busy in your room, it’s close anyway, if you need anything give me a call and I’ll be back.” Cecilia Glendon said while getting off the bed and directly on the carpet with bare feet only.
Abbott Benson came over and put her in a hug, “I’m sorry.”
“Apologize for what?” Cecilia Glendon cried, “This wasn’t supposed to be your business either, and it was my fault for dragging you here.”
“It’s not your fault.” Abbott Benson had a low voice.
Cecilia Glendon hugged him back, “Yesterday in August City, if it wasn’t for me you wouldn’t have to come back now, what happened in August City … is important, right?”
“Not very important.” Everything is not important in front of her.
Cecilia Glendon was about to say something when she suddenly remembered his injuries and hurriedly pushed him away and reached for his clothes.
Only just before his hand touched his clothes he held his wrist: “What are you doing?”
“How are your injuries?” Cecilia Glendon looked up, the tip of her tightly knitted eyebrows indicated her nervousness at the moment, “I wanted to tell you before, you still have injuries, don’t work so hard, you were hurt so badly in the car accident before, you must not have healed in such a short time.”
Abbott Benson’s injury has always been a thorn in her side, but the relationship between them before made it impossible for her to care for him openly, but now it’s different, so of course she wants to make sure he’s okay first.
“It’s almost better.” Abbott Benson took her hand unobtrusively and sat down, as if intentionally avoiding the subject, “You don’t have to worry.”
“Really?” Cecilia Glendon looked at him suspiciously, “You’re not lying to me?”
“Of course not.” Abbott Benson laughed helplessly, “What could I possibly gain by lying to you?”
“Then you let me look at it.” Cecilia Glendon insisted, “If it’s really okay, it won’t matter if I take a look, right?”
Abbott Benson’s brow furrowed slightly, seemingly in hesitation.
But as soon as she saw this look on his face, Cecilia Glendon knew he must be lying to herself.
Her face suddenly went cold: “You’re lying to me.”
“I just don’t want you to worry.” Seeing her sudden change of face, Abbott Benson was a little anxious, “I wasn’t trying to lie to you.”
Cecilia Glendon gritted her teeth and didn’t say anything, and this time moved quickly as she lifted up one corner of him, and then saw that the original flat and smooth left abdomen was still wrapped in gauze upwards, and that gauze was still oozing blood.
With a glare in her eyes, she questioned with some anger, “You call this almost good enough?”
His wounds are still bleeding, after all this time! Is he desperate for his life? With such a body, he is still working so hard, no wonder he had to take the high speed train to August City!
Before Abbott Benson could explain anything, Cecilia Glendon pulled up his pants again on his left leg, which was more severely pressed than the wound on his waist.
Seeing this, Cecilia Glendon felt like her whole body was going to explode.
