I followed him reluctantly, so he called Georgie while we were in the elevator. He was already waiting at
the front door when we left the building, still opening the car door for Eric as usual. And he was still
giving me a dark look.
Annoyed, I put some distance between myself and Eric as I got into the car. However, Eric approached
me, ignoring the revulsion I was showing. and he held my hand. When I couldn’t pull him away, I
pinched him and he gasped. When Georgie saw him holding my hand in the rearview
mirror, his face fell.
I could understand Georgie’s dislike for me, as he cared about Eric because he saw him as family. To
him, I was just another slut. As his young master was young, rich and powerful, he could get any
woman he wanted, but he chose to get involved with a married woman like me. Of course, he would
get
nervous.
Eric probably knew that Georgie didn’t like me, but he didn’t care. Even after I pinched him, he kept
holding my hand and stroking it. When he touched my wedding band, he took it off in one swift
movement. ‘Don’t use this when you’re with me!’
‘What’s the matter with you?’
‘This thing drives me crazy. I think I told you never to make me mad. He looked at me.
‘Ah, stop this nonsense and give it back to me.’
— No, one day I’ll give you a better one, designed by me.
‘You can’t just give someone a ring!’ I couldn’t take it anymore. How much longer is he going to keep
this up?
“I know that, but I’ll make an exception for you. Tell me, what kind of ring do you like?
Georgie, who was behind the wheel, coughed and Eric looked over at him. ‘What? Something wrong
with your throat?
‘Anything.’
“Why did you cough, then?” He looked at Georgie before looking at me. ‘So, back to the question, what Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
kind of ring do you like?’
It was impossible to talk to him so I looked away and ignored him no matter what he said. When he
noticed my refusal to speak, he calmed down and examined the ring. Upon arriving at the hospital, Eric
got off first, while I followed.
Instead of going to see Camille, he looked at me. “I’ll go with you for your checkup.
‘Whereby? I’m perfectly fine.
“I thought you said you weren’t okay.”
‘No I did not. Just see Ms. Sanders now, okay? I’m going to get some flowers. What’s her favorite?
‘These gifts are useless.’ Eric didn’t seem to mind.
‘Well, you’re close to her, so of course you don’t need that, but I don’t. I need to buy her a present
somehow.
“I think she likes Casa Blanca. I will go with you.’
‘No. Just go to her and I’ll be right back. Eric didn’t insist anymore, so he got on the elevator, while I
went to the flower shop next to the hospital. I bought some Casa Blanca before I went to the
greengrocer’s to buy some fruit, then went back to Camille’s ward.
When I got to the door, I heard her say rather cutely, ‘I had a big scare today, Eric! I thought I couldn’t
see you anymore!’
