Chapter 145
Tracey thought Mable would only arrive in Richworth after 11:00 pm.
Who knew that she arrived just after dinner?
The helicopter stopped at the tarmac in the villa's back garden. Tracey ran over as soon as Mable came down.
"Mabes, you're finally here."
"How's Blair? Did the doctor come to see him? What did he say?"
Mable asked as she walked toward the house.
Rahman followed behind her and complained, "It's Blair. How could he lack doctors? You're just worrying blindly!"
Tracey glared at him and replied to Mable, "Mabes, his condition is a matter of the heart. The doctor said it needs to be treated with care."
Rahman rolled his eyes and could not be bothered roasting her further.
He was now certain that Blair had deliberately tricked Mable into coming.
"Where is he now?" Mable asked.
"In his bedroom upstairs."
Rahman wanted to follow Mable when she went upstairs. However, he was blocked by Tracey.
"Stop! Why are you everywhere? Stay here!"
Tracey definitely could not let him go up and disturb them.
Rahman scoffed and sat on the sofa in the living room. "You think I wanted to come? I'm just worried Mabes is being tricked!"
If he could not go upstairs, so be it. He wanted to see what tricks Blair had up his sleeves.
In the bedroom upstairs.
Mable pushed the door open and saw Blair leaning on the bed. He had his laptop on his lap and his earbuds on. It seemed as though he was on a video call with someone.
Blair was stunned when he saw Mable in the doorway. Then, he said to the person on the screen, "That's all for today. Email me the proposal by 10:00 am tomorrow." After ending the call, he removed his earbuds and looked at Mable.
"Mabes."
Given how soon she arrived, he figured she must have taken a helicopter.
Mable walked into the bedroom.
"Aren't you sick? Why don't you rest?"
In the video Tracey sent her a few hours ago, Blair was unconscious with a high fever.
If not for Blair's sickly state, Mable would have wondered if the video was fake.
Blair put his laptop on the bedside
problem at all. It's Tracey
probust caught a cold. It's not a making too much of a 906 19
His voice was particularly low and hoarse due to his inflamed wound and high fever.
Mable did not say anything and stared at him to size him up.
'When did he become so weak that he has to stay in bed for a cold?'
Blair tilted his head slightly, revealing his perfect jawline. He smiled and said, "Mabes, you came to see me."
He sounded a little proud.
Mable stared into his eyes. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Blair, are you injured?"
Blair blinked calmly and asked with a smile, "Do you want me to get hurt that badly?"
"How did you get the Ice Jade Flower from Isaac?" Mable asked Blair again.
Blair felt that the way Mable looked
at him was a bit off, so he
responded in a relaxed tone,
you come all the way here just to
ask me these questions?"
Mable did not reply.
"You want answers?" Blair continued.
Seeing as she was keeping quiet, he beckoned her to come closer.
Mable walked over and was suddenly grabbed by the arm.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Following that, she fell into Blair's arms.
Blair lifted her chin and leaned in to say, "Mabes, kiss me, and I'll tell you."
Mable did not know if she was
compelled by his gaze or was simply
not thinking at the moment. She
took the initiative and kissed him on
the lips.
Blair thought Mable would surely push him away in annoyance and stop asking for answers. However, she actually kissed him.
Just as Mable was about to withdraw herself, Blair held the back of her head and kissed her again.
