A Sweet Night The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently

Nell kept some distance from James after their kiss.

As Nell was staring at him in vigilance, and sitting far away from him, James was a bit upset.

However, he did not regret kissing her.

It was after the kiss that James was sure about his feelings toward her. Her lips were so soft and sweet. Unlike the kiss they had when they were drunk, this time he was so attached that he hated to stop. James did not regret it, but he was upset as it was not good timing.

The injury on his back had not recovered yet, which was why Nell stayed here to take care of him. Being too anxious and desperate would probably drive her away. His kiss was a good example as it caused Nell to put on alert.

James decided to find a better time when he kissed Nell the next time.

James felt thirsty.

His eyes were fixed on Nell. "Nell, I want some water."

"Sure, I'll pour it for you!"

Nell took James' cup and poured him a cup of water.

However, when she handed him the cup, she kept some distance from him. Nell put the cup on the bedside table and quickly withdrew her hand, afraid that James would grab her hand all of a sudden. James had mixed feelings.

He could not do anything to her in the hospital.

What a pity!

The next morning, James was about to be discharged from the hospital. Of course, Nell was the one running the discharge procedures.

She finished all the paperwork in a while. Then, James was free to go home.

Only a few people knew James was discharged, including Bryson and Audrey, who brought some fruits and gifts to the hospital. Nell took all the gifts to the car. James was standing by the car with a bag in front of him. Nell walked around to pick up the bag.

But suddenly, a car dashed out of the warehouse and drove past Nell.

Nell was shocked as the car was running toward her. But she couldn't move her legs. At the critical moment, someone grabbed Nell's wrist and pulled her away. The moment Nell collapsed, there was a gust of wind and she heard the sound of her clothes brushing past the car.

James hugged Nell tightly, not letting go. They remained this way for a long time.

As for Nell, she was in James' embrace, so scared that she failed to move.

She was almost hit by a car. She almost died. Death nearly dawned upon her.

If James had been slower, she might have died.

Having realized what had happened, Nell gasped in shock.

Fortunately, she was still alive.

When she finally recovered from the shock, she found herself still in James' arms. James hugged her so tight that Nell almost couldn't breathe.

She frowned and pushed James away.

"James, let go!"

James finally came back to life.

He looked down at Nell, hugged her even tighter, buried his head in her neck, and let out a long sigh. "Great! You're fine!"

Nell's heart softened.

James almost caused her to be short of breath just because he was afraid. He was worried that something bad might happen to her. Now that he knew Nell was fine, he recovered from the shock. Nell was touched by what James had said.

Nell comforted James. "I think I'm fine. Besides, you saved me. Don't you remember?"

James gradually relaxed, his body no longer stiff.

Looking at the woman in his arms who tried to cheer him up, James revealed a smile.

Not knowing why, Nell felt a bit uneasy when she saw the corners of James' mouth curling up. She had a hunch that he must be planning something.

"Nell, an eye for an eye. A tooth for a tooth. A life for a life. Am I right?"

Nell frowned. "Well, that's true."

The next second, James said, "I have saved your life twice, haven't I?"

"You want me to repay your kindness? What about treating you to a meal!" Nell said.

This was the most efficient way to express gratitude. If one meal was not enough, Nell didn't mind treating him twice.

"Not interested."

Nell asked in alarm, "Then what are you interested in?"

Nell regretted it the moment she asked the question.

Why would she ask this?

James was setting her up. She had fallen into his trap by asking back.

The next moment, James' voice sounded.

"In ancient times, when a man saved a woman's life, the woman would marry him. I've saved you twice."

Nell was speechless.

So, was he asking her to sleep with him to repay his kindness?

Nell gritted her teeth. "Even if what you said is true, I have already done that for you once."

James said, "Oh, have you?"

Nell reminded him. "Of course. Don't you remember what happened several days ago? That night."

"I will take it as a reward for saving you last time. But I just saved you again. You still owe me once!" James said seriously, trying to squeeze the most benefits from Nell.

His expression was very serious when James was explaining this to Nell. Judging from his look, one would assume he was talking about serious matters.

But Nell only wanted to take off her shoes and slap James on the face.

Shame on him!

He had taken advantage of her once. But now James was asking her to sleep with him again.

Nell said coldly, "I didn't know you had such a quirk. You use your favor as a pretext so that ladies will sleep with you. I wonder how many ladies have fallen for this?" James stared at Nell with affection. "Only you."

His gaze was so intense that Nell couldn't bear it. She looked away to avoid his gaze and snorted. "People say you can't take men's words for it. Now I understand why." "Then what should I do to convince you?"Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Nell rolled her eyes.

She turned around with a smile.

"There is something you can do."
