Chapter 1469
She could feel the courseness of gun calluses of his finger pulps.
"Erik, why are you here?" Crystal asked in surprise. Now she had become a little more sober- minded.
Erik was holding half a cup of hot water from the water dispenser next to him. When he heard her words, he squinted at her and said, "Lil Star, have you forgotten that we talked on the phone this morning?"
"Ah!" Crystal was stunned. "It's you who called me. I thought..."
"What?" Erik asked her.
Crystal replied honestly, "I thought it was my boyfriend who called me!"
At that time, she felt very dizzy because of the fever, and she didn't look at the mobile phone clearly. She thought that it was Kayden who called. When she woke up in the hospital, she subconsciously believed that Kayden was the person who sent her to the hospital.
However, apart from her father, Adam, Erik was perhaps the only one who had such a tall and stalwart figure among all the persons she knew in reality.
Erik was speechless.
He gripped the cup of water in his hand tightly, feeling an urge to strangle this foolish girl...
After finishing the weight-bearing crosscountry jogging program in the morning, Erik tried to call her again. Unexpectedly, she picked it up. Then, he learned from her voice that she was ill. He didn't even take a shower after that. He drove his SUV directly to her home.
He had asked for a leave and didn't participate in the routine training programs of the army. He spent the whole day taking care of Crystal in the ward, and he was so tired now. And yet she thought of only her boyfriend!
However, Erik soon calm himself down. He rang the bell and called the doctor to do a physical examination for Crystal.
The doctor quickly came to the ward and confirmed that her fever had been brought down, and she was fine now. After the venous transfusion was over, she could be discharged from the hospital at any moment. However, Erik was worried, and he insisted that Crystal should stay in the hospital for another night. She would be discharged tomorrow morning.
After the doctor left, there were only the brother and sister left in the ward. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
This was a high-class ward, the room was spacious. Water vapor was coming out from the humidifier.
Crystal was lying on the bed, feeling somewhat uneasy.
She was troubled by something that had happened not long ago. After hesitating for a while, she asked, "Erik, that night..."
Erik frowned and asked back, "What happened that night?"
He looked at her with his dark eyes without any intention to avoid anything. His eye expressions were meaningful and innocent.
Seeing this, Crystal became completely relaxed. "I'm... I'm fine!"
She took a deep breath and was no longer uneasy.
This time, she was even more certain that it was simply because Erik had drunk too much wine that night!
Erik noticed her little movements, but he still kept his expression unchanged. He didn't know whether he should be happy or disappointed.
On the whole, he didn't want to be overhasty.
They had just reunited for a short time, and he didn't want her to feel at a loss because of his eagerness and aggressiveness. What's more, she also had a boyfriend who still hadn't realized the existence of a rival in
love.
Thinking of that boyfriend of Crystal, Erik's eyes were filled with jealousy and coldness.
After her mental pressure concerning the overbearing kiss from her brother was released, Crystal felt much more at ease in front of him. She thought that the mental pressure had all gone.
Suddenly thinking of something, she blinked and asked, "Erik, you wouldn't have been taking care of me here all day, right?"
"Well..." Erik snorted lightly, but his expression indirectly suggested "Yes, I did".
The military disciplines were strict in the army, especially for an officer of the special forces like him. Usually, even if he didn't have to go out for the completion of tasks, his daily training volume would still be particularly high. In order to take care of her, he had actually delayed a lot of things today.
Crystal was extremely moved. She was as obsequious as a puppy when she said, "Erik, you are so nice!"
Erik flicked her forehead with his index finger.
He didn't use any strength in his hand. He just flicked her in a light and doting manner.
"I'm glad you still have some conscience!" He said.
Crystal smiled even more obsequiously at
him.
According to Erik's request, after the intravenous injection finished, she should continue to stay in the hospital under observation. She would be discharged from the hospital tomorrow morning when it was confirmed that she no longer had a fever.
Erik felt that sanitary conditions in the restaurants near the hospital might be bad, and therefore he specially went to a distant restaurant to buy her dinner.
Crystal was still sick, and therefore she had to go on a light diet. Fearing that she might not have a good appetite, Erik brought back two bags of food. In this way, she would have a great variety of choices.
When the door of the ward was opened, Crystal immediately smelled the scent of food.
She almost jumped up from the bed with Carp Kick-up. Her eyes were firmly fixed on the food in the bags.
Erik felt that he had virtually worried too much about this little fairy's appetite. Her appetite was so good that she didn't look like a sick person at all.
He handed her a cup of water and said, "Eat them slowly!"
Although Crystal devoured the food ravenously, it didn't damage her image of being a beautiful and delicate girl. She looked like a lovely little squirrel, as she enjoyed the food thoroughly, while her cheeks were bulging. Her eyes were as curved as a crescent moon, and it seemed that she was deeply attracted by the delicious food.
Crystal was deeply attracted by the food, while Erik was deeply attracted by the scene that she was devouring the food.
At the same time, he was wondering why she didn't grow much meat after eating so many delicious things!
Crystal's figure was very slender. Her hospital gown looked relatively large, and her body looked small.
However, thinking of the tactile impression of her breasts pressing down on his back, Erik couldn't help swollawed, and his eyes swept over the place beneath her neck. Her collar was loose. The lamplight shone from the ceiling to her head, leaving a fascinating shadow on her chest.
His eyes darkened slightly as he forcefully shifted his eyesight away from her chest.
At that moment, his mobile phone suddenly rang.
Erik took the phone out to have a look. He then frowned, yet didn't pick it up.
Immediately after he hung up the phone, it rang again. As if he knew that the other side
was persistent, he finally picked it up. "Hey!"
There were some wrinkles between his eyebrows, and he was a little impatient to speak.
After the other side said something, Erik replied, "I can't do it. Don't call me again!"
When Erik became serious, he often made others feel the pressure.
The other side also seemed to have felt that Erik was adamant, and didn't dare to call him again.
Erik put the phone back into his trouser pocket. Then, he saw that Crystal was looking at him, with a fried dumpling half-inserted into her mouth.
When their eyes met, she immediately spat out the half-bitten dumpling. Her eyes were burning with the fire of gossiping enjoyment. "Erik, am I going to have a sister-in-law?"
Although the handsfree function on the phone was not on just now, as it was quiet in the ward, and Erik was sitting on the edge of the hospital bed, Crystal could still vaguely hear the voice of the caller. She couldn't hear clearly what the caller was saying, but she could roughly hear that it was a female's voice.
Crystal immediately thought of that beautiful and young woman who accompanied Erik into the hotel.
Erik was four years older than her, and he was full of vigor and vitality. It was quite normal for him to be surrounded by women. That's why she was not surprised at all, but very curious, when she saw the two of them at that time.
Erik pursed his thin lips.
Crystal started laughing. "Last night, I saw n
you...
She told him what she had seen at the hotel entrance.
Hearing this, Erik was slightly stunned. It seemed that he hadn't expected that she would happen to catch sight of them. He explained to her very seriously, "I have nothing to do with her, and I didn't spend the night with her!"
Crystal blinked her eyes and continued to gossip. "Then, in the future, will she become my sister-in- law?"
"She won't!" Erik answered quickly and firmly.
He stared at her with his deep eyes and told her in a magnetic voice, "Lil Star, you will never have a sister-in-law!"
