The agent and manager looked as pale as death, with the agent trembling all over, constantly breaking out in cold sweat.
What on earth is going on? Didn’t Miss Hart already dump Calvert?
But why is he now standing up for Calvert?!
But the moment her hand touched Calvert, he desperately dodged away, continuously shouting, “No… I don’t want… Don’t touch me, don’t touch me!”
That handsome face was contorted, as he desperately tried to suppress the effects of the drug coursing through his body.
Beads of sweat, the size of soybeans, kept rolling down his forehead. His face and exposed skin were a shade of pink.
“It’s me!” Harley said, feeling even more heartbroken for Calvert.
But it seemed as if Calvert didn’t hear a thing, he kept resisting Harley’s touch.
It’s like a desperate little creature, frantically trying to protect itself, yet powerless to do so!
Seeing Calvert like this, Harley’s heart was filled with pain.
She suddenly pulled Calvert into her arms, ignoring his struggles, and kept saying, “It’s me, Calvert, it’s me! Don’t be scared, I’m here now, you’ll be okay!”
Calvert, who had been struggling, gradually stopped. His black eyes, already confused and unable to even focus properly, were now trying hard to look in her direction.
“Har… Harley…” A hoarse voice, struggling to form the words.
“It’s me!” Harley said, “Everything’s fine, there’s nothing to worry about!”
Then Harley turned to his bodyguard and said, “Take this woman and that agent to the police station. And as for the manager, not a word about today’s incident should be leaked.”
“Yes, yes!” the manager quickly agreed.
In a matter of moments, only Calvert and Harley were left in the room!
Harley carefully untied the ropes binding Calvert’s hands, looking at his flushed face.
“How are you doing? Do you know what that woman fed you?” Harley asked, regretting that she hadn’t asked more clearly earlier.
He should have clarified what that woman fed him before sending her off to the police station.
In just a moment, on the way to the hospital, I’ll call the bodyguard to clarify about the medicine!
“I’ll take you now…” Harley said, trying to help Calvert up and take him to the hospital.
But when her hand touched him again, he desperately pushed her away.
“Don’t… don’t come near me, I’m…” He struggled to say, briefly lucid because of her voice. But now, the effects of the drug were overpowering his rationality again.
It felt like he could lose his sanity at any moment, driven by his desires.
Especially at this moment, the person in front of him is the one he’s been daydreaming about, the one he’s been longing for!
“Don’t… don’t look at me, I… I didn’t mean to…” He desperately tugged at the tattered cloth on his body, trying to cover himself.
However, due to the medication, the body is having a natural physiological reaction.
He was terrified, afraid that she would see his ugly physiological reaction and think it was a desecration!
“Don’t worry.” Harley quickly grabbed Calvert, covering him with a blanket, “It’s okay, I’ll take you to the hospital. I won’t let anything happen to you. You don’t need to worry about anything, just trust me!”
Calvert was groggily helped up by Harley. Does he just need to lean on her?
All along, he could only rely on himself. His mother abandoned him, his father was always ready to hit and scold him. He had no one to lean on.
Even though his body was burning up, as if he could lose control at any moment, his anxious heart was gradually calming down!
Harley immediately cleared out the restaurant, taking Calvert with him and heading to the hospital!
All the way, Calvert was feeling particularly awful. He was curled up like a shrimp, his face flushed red, and his whole body was shaking non-stop.
He was practically using all his strength to suppress his desires. Yet, even when he closed his eyes tightly, all sorts of beautiful fantasies would still continuously emerge in his mind.
My body feels like it’s about to explode.
Just then, a voice rang in his ear, “Are you feeling bad?”
Immediately after, a hand gently touched his forehead, wiping away the sweat that was breaking out on his face.
That hand was so cool to the touch. Just a slight contact made him feel so comfortable where it touched, as if it was cooling him down.
But… that’s too little!
That’s way too little!
He wanted her to explore more, to experience more…
Suddenly, Calvert’s eyes snapped open, and Harley’s face was reflected in those passionate, dark eyes.
“Don’t… don’t touch me…” He stammered, his lips trembling as he struggled to utter these few words.
“What?” Harley was suddenly confused.
“Don’t… don’t touch me… or else… I won’t… won’t be able to control myself…” His voice trembled as he spoke, and then he closed his eyes again.
Every time he looked at her, his desire deepened, making his self-control even weaker!
Harley finally understood what was going on. His face turned red instantly, and he stopped wiping the sweat off Calvert’s face.
After all, her actions might also be a form of torment for him.
Finally, they arrived at the hospital. Calvert was rushed into the emergency room, while Harley anxiously waited outside.
He should be safe now that he’s at the hospital, but why does she still feel so anxious?
Even when she saw Calvert in distress, his eyes filled with desire, she found herself wanting to help him relieve that desire.
Oh my God, what on earth is she thinking!
Harley quickly dismissed the thoughts in his mind.
After a good while, the doctor came out and said to Harley, “Everything’s been taken care of, and I’ve given Mr. Elledge a sedative. He’ll be fine once he wakes up.”
“So… don’t I need to take any more medicine?” Harley asked.
“No need for that. Just have him drink more water in the next few days to flush out the residual medication from his body. However, in the following days, his body might react more easily than usual. Just ignore it,” the doctor said.
Harley was initially listening to the doctor’s advice with a serious face. But as the conversation went on, his face turned red again. Uh… ‘Easily reactive,’ such words really make one’s mind wander!
The nurse took a comatose Calvert to the ward, with Harley following closely behind.
Once the nurse left, Harley sat by the bed, looking at Calvert lying on the hospital bed.
Now, his complexion has returned to normal, no longer constantly sweating. With his eyes closed, he looks like he’s peacefully asleep.
Today’s experience must have felt like a nightmare to him.
If she hadn’t rushed over, what terrible things might have happened to him?
Thinking of this, a smile unconsciously crept up on Harley’s lips. He was glad he made it in time to protect him. It felt really good!
When Calvert slowly opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Harley, asleep by his bedside.
How could she be here? Calvert was taken aback, and then he remembered what had happened before.
Oh right, he was tricked by his agent into having dinner with Miss Maldonado. They drugged him, and just when he was in despair, thinking something terrible was about to happen, Harley showed up.
She was like a hero fallen from the sky, saving him from his predicament.
When he was a child, he always hoped that a hero would come and pull him out of his messy life. He wanted to be like other children, to have a warm home, to be loved, and to live a life where he could eat well, dress warmly, and not be beaten every day.
As he grew older, he gradually understood that heroes only exist in fairy tales. So, he stopped harboring such unrealistic expectations.
But then she came into his life, changing his destiny and leading him to live a life he never dared to dream of before.
And now, she had even saved him.
How could he possibly not be moved by someone like this!
He lifted his hand, unable to resist the urge to touch that peacefully sleeping face.
Just as his hand was about to touch her face, her eyelashes fluttered, and a pair of beautiful eyes opened.
Calvert quickly pulled back his hand, instantly snapping back to reality.
What on earth is he doing?!
He has no right to do such a thing, it’s like he’s desecrating her.
“You’re awake, how are you feeling?” Harley asked Calvert.
“There’s… there’s nothing else, really. Thank you so much this time,” Calvert said, his face flushing slightly.
“What you’ve been through, your agent can’t just get away with it, it’s outrageous!” Harley said, “I’ll deal with this kind of agent for you, and later find you a suitable one.”
He watched her, filled with righteous indignation, and felt a warm feeling in his heart, “Mm-hmm.”
“If you’re feeling okay, you can be discharged this morning. I’ll sort out your discharge paperwork in a bit,” she said.
“I can handle the discharge procedures myself, I’ve already troubled you enough!” he said hastily.
“Don’t talk about whether it’s a hassle or not, aren’t we friends?” Harley said.
“Friend…” Calvert’s eyes dimmed a bit. Yes, they were just friends. Even being able to be her friend was already a great fortune. How could he dare to fantasize about anything more?
Harley handled the discharge procedures for Calvert and accompanied him back to his residence.
“By the way, these past few days, the doctor has been advising you to drink more water to speed up your metabolism and flush out the residual medication in your body. Also… um, they said your body might react more easily, but don’t panic, it’s all normal. Once all the residual medication in your body is metabolized, you’ll be fine.”
After hearing this, Calvert’s face suddenly turned beet red.
Suddenly, my body tensed up. What was once a normal body, had suddenly become somewhat sensitive.
