Chapter 372Chapter 372 Still, a Little Reluctant
“Please, save me…”
Gail pleaded desperately, gasping for breath.
Her intact hand was pressed against her injured shoulder.
The bullet had been lodged in her arm overnight, causing an unbearable pain that she couldn’t bear.
Although the bleeding had been stopped, half of her body was still numb. Rendering her unable to
move. Her injured arm was likely to be useless…
The man sitting in the seat slowly stood up and walked towards her. His crisp and steady footsteps
echoed within the silent brewery, as if striking the hearts of people.
In no time, he arrived in front of Gail.
Gail looked up at him…
However, the man fiercely kicked her shoulder.
At the same time, a cold voice resounded, “You dare beg for mercy from me? Didn’t I order you not to
touch Aletta without my permission?”
The man’s tone was as chilling as if it came from hell itself. “You actually wanted to kill her. Who gave
you the audacity?”
As soon as his words fell, he didn’t seem satisfied. He suddenly lifted his leg and ruthlessly stomped on
Gail’s injured area.Gail lay on the ground, continuously wailing in pain, “I was wrong, Master. I truly know I was wrong.
Please spare me…”
But the man ignored her pleas. It seemed like he wanted to stomp her to death!
Gail was in so much pain that she could barely breathe.
Amidst the pain, her hatred towards Aletta grew even stronger!
She hated Aletta!
She hated how Aletta had caused her to end up in this despicable state!
In the beginning, this man had given her a drug that induced a fake death, creating the illusion of her
sudden demise.
She had thought it was liberation.
But later, she realized her naivety.
The man before her was even more terrifying than a devil!
In his eyes, she was nothing more than a disposable ant and experiment…
Just as Gail was nearly fainting from the pain, the man finally mercifully released his foot.
His voice was icy, and he spoke to her as if she were garbage, “I’ll spare your wretched life this time,
but if there’s a next time. I’ll kill you!”
The bloodthirsty coldness penetrated Gail’s heart.
As the man finished speaking, he waved his hand towards his subordinate on the left.The subordinate immediately stepped forward and dragged Gail away for treatment…
Meanwhile, the subordinate on the right approached respectfully and asked, “Master, the plane tickets
are scheduled for the afternoon. Are we still leaving?”
Upon hearing this, the man replied indifferently, “Naturally, we must leave. That useless woman has
already alerted others!”
Although I don’t know how capable Jason is, I have a feeling that he’s dangerous and not someone to
mess with! So, we must leave here as soon as possible. Go make the preparations!”
The subordinate nodded and obeyed, “Yes, I will make the arrangements.”
In the morning, Aletta and Jason stayed in the hotel and didn’t go out.
There were unknown dangers outside, so Aletta naturally wouldn’t venture out and invite trouble.
Another worry was about Jason’s injury.
Although it was treated and not a big problem, there was still concern about possible complications.
In the morning, around ten o’clock, Jason frowned frequently. His complexion not looking good.
“What’s wrong?”
Jason answered truthfully, “The wound is aching slightly, on and off.”
Aletta felt worried and quickly approached to check.
After a while, the wound was exposed, showing signs of slight redness and swelling.
Aletta furrowed her brow and said, “It’s a mild inflammation. Wait a moment, I’ll take care of it for you.”Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookSaying that, she quickly got up. Brought the medical kit, and helped him disinfect and dress the wound.
After finishing, she didn’t forget to touch his forehead, which felt a bit warm.
Aletta frowned, “You have a slight fever. That’s not good.”
Jason actually enjoyed her meticulous care for him.
But seeing her worried expression, he couldn’t help but reassure her, “It’s alright, I’ll be fine soon.”
As he spoke, he held Aletta’s hand and gently pinched it, affectionate and tender.
Aletta glanced at him and quickly withdrew her hand.
She handed him anti–inflammatory and pain–relieving medicine, saying, “Take the medicine.”
Jason obediently complied and finished the medicine.
Then, Aletta instructed, “Go lie down on the bed. Given your condition, it’s not advisable to take
antipyretics now. I’ll go get some water to cool you down.”
With those words, she pulled Jason up from the couch.
Jason cooperated and let her lead him to lie down on the bed.
Aletta helped him cover with the blanket, then turned around to bring hot water and a wet towel for a
warm compress…
After finishing all that, Aletta said to him, “If you feel tired, just sleep. I’ll stay here and watch over you.”
Jason saw her concerned expression and helplessly said, “I’m really fine. This level of discomfort is
nothing, but…”His tone changed as he looked at Aletta and said, “Having you by my side seems nice.”
Aletta playfully tapped him without giving him face, “Stop flattering!”
She threatened him, “Later, your temperature might rise. You’ll pay for it then.”
Jason didn’t mind, “Even if I feel uncomfortable, I have you taking care of me! We’re already engaged,
so I should get special treatment, right?”
Listening to his words, Aletta couldn’t help but smile.
But she deliberately kept a serious face and said, “That’s not necessarily true. When I take action, I can
be quite forceful. If you really have a high fever, I won’t care about your status.”
“Are you willing?”
Jason raised an eyebrow and asked.
Aletta glared at him, “Of course, I am!”
Jason lowered his voice, “Really?”
“Yes!”
She nodded without hesitation.
Jason didn’t say anything, his gaze deepened, then suddenly he reached out and pulled her closer.
Aletta’s body leaned forward abruptly, letting out a surprised cry as she fell onto him.
Fortunately, her movements were agile enough to avoid hitting his wound.Looking at the person who was so close, Jason asked again, “Are you really willing?”
This time, his voice seemed enticing.
Because they were so close, Aletta could feel the warm breath brushing against her ear as he spoke,
tickling her a little.
It softened her heart.
She remained silent for a while before resting her head against his chest. Her voice muffled, “I still…
have some unwillingness. After all, you got injured for me.”
“You don’t have to say that last sentence.”
Jason chuckled lightly and said.
From this angle, all he had to do was lower his head slightly, and he could kiss her cheek.
But instead, he placed a kiss on Aletta’s ear and said, “I’m willing to get injured for you, and it’s worth it.
This small wound brought you back to me… it’s great.”
This intimate whisper made Aletta’s ears turn slightly red.
Despite being injured, he still had the mind to say sweet words.
However, she couldn’t help but mutter, “If possible, it’s better not to get injured.”
Although her voice was as soft as a mosquito’s, Jason still heard it.
The man curled his lips, hugged her, and gently patted her back. Comforting, “I’ll try to avoid it in the
future.”Aletta nodded, feeling more at ease in her heart.
