Trapped with a Doctor

Chapter 354 Extra Story No. 24 About Fabian Li

She opened her eyes when she heard Jeffery's voice. She rushed to him in spite of the pain on her feet

and said, "Jeffery, I just want to go back to save the company. I don't want to be here and investigate

anything any more."

Jeffery was confused by her words. He looked at the frightened woman and thought, 'What was she

talking about? What did she want to investigate?

But is this place really terrifying?' He had been living there for a dozen years. Nobody but he and the

butlers taking care of his life lived there, and sometimes some of his friends would crash his place for a

couple of nights. He had never felt scared at all.

Cathy asked, "Oh my god! How could you live here all alone? I think you should go see a psychologist.

Okay?"

Jeffery didn't know how to respond. He said, "I'm very well, I don't need any shrinks."

Cathy pushed him further, "Jeffery, could you stay with me tonight?"

"What?......"

"Don't get me wrong. I meant that you can sleep on the ground, and I will sleep on the bed."

Jeffery smiled and said, "Sorry, Your Majesty, but this is my house."

Cathy pouted and said, "But you're a man, and I'm a woman. Men are supposed to take care of

women, and even spoil them."

Jeffery said, "That happens between lovers, and we're not lovers. I don't have to take care of you, got

it?"

Cathy stood up and held her arms across her chest. She proudly looked at Jeffery and said, "Well,

under this situation, I can pretend to be your girlfriend for a few hours. Come on, let's go rest, and as

I've said, I sleep in the bed, while you on the ground."

Jeffery felt that it was ridiculous and asked, "Shouldn't you ask me if I agree or not?" Jeffery couldn't

believe there was a woman who was more feisty than Angela.

Cathy then asked him if he agreed.

Jeffery said no, and then he walked toward his room.

Cathy caught up with him and stood in front of him with stretched out arms, then she said, "Jeffery, you

will be responsible if I ever get hurt."

She behaved so strongly, just like whenever she was in her office.

Jeffery sneered, held his arms across his chest, and said, "How could you get hurt? And, are you not

afraid of being with a man alone?"

"Nope, " Cathy answered with certainty.

"Why are you so sure? Do you think that you're not attractive to me at all?"

Cathy evilly smiled and said, "Because of Angela." She knew that Jeffery loved Angela, so he wouldn't

touch any other women.

Cathy could sense the change of atmosphere when she mentioned Angela. Jeffery glanced at her and

said, "Never say that name in front of me again." "You started it, okay?" Cathy said. Wasn't it he who

wanted her to have a plastic surgery to look more like Angela before trying to catch his attention?

Jeffery had no choice, so he walked into her room.

With two people in the room, it relaxed Cathy. But when she was about to sleep, she suddenly

remembered something.

She checked her watch. It was nearly 4 AM, the time when most people were sleeping.

She called out to Jeffery in a hushed voice.

But Jeffery didn't answer. He was obviously asleep. Perfect...

She quietly got out of her bed, walked over to Jeffery, and lay down beside him.

She once heard that people who were half asleep would tell the truth when asked, especially when

they were having dreams... She wanted to give it a try.

She braced herself and asked slightly, "Jeffery..."

"Yes."

Jeffery answered, which cheered Cathy up, so she continued, "How long have you been called Purple

Charm?"

"Many years."

Cathy calmed herself down and asked the most important question. If Jeffery would tell her the truth,

she wouldn't have to get close to him anymore. She asked, "Who instigated you to break into Zhusong

Group's defense system?"

But Jeffery didn't answer.

Cathy was so anxious that she held her breath and focused on his sleeping face.

"It's..."

Cathy paid all her attention to Jeffery as he was about to tell her the name.

But...

Jeffery suddenly turned over, and pressed her beneath him.

Cathy was taken aback and yelled. What was going on?

She then saw Jeffery looking at her. His purple eyes were beautiful.

"You're... awake?"

"Is that why you're here? Who the hell are you?" Jeffery pinned her wrists down, so she couldn't move

at all.

Cathy thought, 'Damn, he tricked me, but he can't do anything as long as I don't tell him my name.' She

said, "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is how much money they gave you. I can double that,

but you have to tell me who's behind it."

"He offered me twenty million. Will you give me forty million?"

Forty million... Cathy hesitated a bit but said, "Yes. That's a deal."

"What deal? I haven't agreed. You are willing to sacrifice yourself just to find out the enemy. You're so

dedicated. Are you one of the senior executives of Zhusong Group?" Jeffery slyly smiled and looked at

her.

'Sacrifice myself?' Cathy blushed and said, "Stop your nonsense. I didn't mean that. I'm not that kind of

woman."

"So what kind of woman are you? The kind of woman who would easily go into a man's house and stay

with him alone? Come on, save your excuses." Jeffery turned over, got off her, and lay aside.

Cathy wanted to argue, but she couldn't find a good excuse to defense herself. She looked at Jeffery

and said, "All I did was for the Zhusong Group. Can't you tell me who wanted to fight against my

company?"

Jeffery glanced at her, "Are you not tired?"

"My company..."

"Let's not waste tonight, shall we?"

Cathy was still focused on her company, so she didn't hear clearly what he said, she kept asking him,

"Do you know what kind of damage... hmm... hmm..."

She couldn't speak coherently.

A man alone with a woman was like water drops on burning rocks...

Jeffery originally went on top of her to frighten her, but... he failed to restrain himself.

In the next morning, sunlight poured in through the windows. Jeffery looked at Cathy, full of doubt. He

slept with a woman but he didn't even know her name.

It was already afternoon when Cathy woke up. Only she was in the room.

She moved her body and ached all over, which reminded her of what she did the night before.

Jeffery said that she was there to sacrifice herself to him. She had wanted to retort it, but she thought

what they had done made what Jeffery said the truth, and that, she couldn't deny.

She sat up, rubbed her eyebrows, and glanced at a piece of paper on the bedside table.

"I have my professional ethics, so I won't tell you who hired me to hack into the Zhusong Group. But I

will take back what I have done to Zhusong Group by making her pay for it. I will also invest some

money into Zhusong Group, in return for what I did last night. You're free to leave whenever you like."

Cathy thought, 'Am I being thrown away after being slept with? Was this abandonment after

compensation?

Does he think I only care about the money?

Does he really think that I am a promiscuous woman?'

The blood stain on the sheets had become an irony.

On a second thought... Well... Wasn't it promiscuous to sleep with a man she only met twice?Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
