Chapter 434 Playing Hard to Get

Kevin chuckled with a hint of coldness in his smile. Despite being significantly shorter while sitting

there, his presence was still enough to make Mabel’s heart tremble. “I heard you’ve been inquiring

about me lately,” he said.

Mabel was stunned. It was true that she had been inquiring about him recently, but it was mainly due to

the relationship between Mia and Evelyn. She was worried yet reluctant to ask Evelyn directly and

make her uncomfortable. So she resorted to inquiring. But how could he possibly know…

“Are you curious about how I found out?” Kevin could tell what she was thinking at a glance, and his

eyes showed a teasing look. “This is my hospital.”

In other words, plenty of people would tell him what he

wanted to know.

Mabel felt as if she was being stripped naked and scrutinized. She wanted to explain but stammered

and struggled, not knowing where to begin. She became so flustered that her

face turned red to her neck.

“Mabel, why were you inquiring about me?” With deliberate intent, Kevin continued to press her, as if

“I… I…” Mabel bit her lip and quickly let go. “I didn’t mean to. I just want to know what happened to

Evelyn.”

“That’s why you inquired about me?” Kevin stood up and walked up to her. “You’re interfering in the

private affairs of a leader, understand?”

Feeling guilty and unable to find the words to explain herself, Mabel could only endure his criticism,

neither too light nor too

harsh.

Thinking about their previous arguments and the attention she had consciously paid to him during

these days, the emotions buried in her heart suddenly erupted like scorching lava from a volcano,

burning in her eyes and deep within her heart. Her nose felt sore, and she offered an insincere apology,

saying, “I’m sorry. I won’t do it again.”

After saying that, she turned around and walked toward the door as if she couldn’t stay any longer,

regardless of Kevin’s

reaction.

Kevin was taken aback for a moment, and as he turned around, he caught sight of her flushed eyes.

How could he let her go so easily?

He took two long strides forward, grabbing her wrist with a

firm grip, his fingers closing tightly. The ease in his voice

vanished, replaced by a subtle sense of urgency. “You make

mistakes and then try to run away. When will you learn to face

yourself?”

“I can’t.” Mabel turned her back to him. Without seeing the suffocating look in his eyes, she finally

became bolder and

dared to argue back to him. “You are my senior, my leader. If you criticize me, I have to listen.”

Mabel was so angry that she said something contrary, and

her tone was full of dissatisfaction.

Kevin raised his eyebrows and pulled her closer to him. Looking at her big eyes, which were about to

burst into tears, he tugged at her wrist again until she was about to fall into his

arms.

“You can’t face yourself?” He raised her chin and kissed her

lips. “I’ll help you.”

Ben’s body was recovering well. His feeding tube could be

removed in the first week after the surgery. He could sit up

straight and even walk with assistance. This brought some

relief to Lucy’s anxious heart.

Evelyn hired a caregiver to help with the care and spent most of her time by his bedside. Being

advanced, Lucy couldn’t take care of him for too long, so they took turns. Although it was a

bit firing, it wasn’t as

From time to time, Huston would come to deliver some daily necessities and offer instructions to the

medical staff. Their interactions remained as before, and he took good care of her. However, Evelyn felt

empty inside. Faced with such care, she couldn’t even muster a hint of gratitude, let alone any

other emotions.

In her eyes, everything that Huston was doing now was for Mia. She could no longer overcome the

hurdle in her heart.
