“Does it hurt? I hope it does!” Celine exclaimed.
Adam remained silent. He had no idea what he had done to offend her, which led him to think that women were unpredictable.
Celine treated Adam’s wound and bandaged it carefully, but unfortunately, his wound got infected. By the time he lay down to rest, he had already developed a high fever
As Adam felt cold, Celine turned on the air conditioner and draped several blankets over him. Despite this, he remained freezing. Cold sweat rolled down his forehead as his lips turned pale
Celine thought he deserved it. She didn’t understand why he didn’t take care of his wound when he was busy taking Carly to the hospital.
Although she gave him an injection to help, he would still have to endure the fever. Once the fever subsided, he would recover.
Celine lifted the blanket and lay down beside him. His body was icy cold, like a block of ice radiating waves of chill
She couldn’t ignore him. Biting her lips nervously, she pressed her slender body closer to him.
Adam was lying with his back to her. Thus, Celine avoided his wound and wrapped her arms around him from behind.
He immediately felt her presence as she curled against him. Her warmth seeped through their thin clothing
Soon, Celine reached out and placed her hand on his six–pack abs. She cautiously caressed it, exploring it with tentative strokes.
With his eyes remained shut, Adam rasped, “Celine, I’m sick!”
Of course, Celine knew he was sick. That was why she had to find ways to warm him up. She could only use this method to stimulate him. But she wasn’t Carly, so she wasn’t sure if this idea would work.
Celine remained silent. She was initially hesitant but grew bolder now. She kept touching him upward until she rested her hand on his firm chest. She enjoyed the feeling
Adam sensed her growing audacity as her hand roamed and ignited a trail of heat. Even in his weakened state, she managed to torment him.
Adam grabbed her hand abruptly. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he barked, “Stop touching me, Celine!”
Their bodies were pressed together, and Celine felt his body temperature rise. His muscles suddenly became tensed and defined
Her face flushed as she teased, “Adam, it seems your body doesn’t feel as indifferent to me as you claim.”
Adam was stunned. He refused to admit his physiological reaction toward her.
He had felt desire for her before. Even in his current levered and weakened state, her teasing still managed to awaken his body.
Adam turned to face her. He gritted his teeth and growled, “Celine, why are you so… annoying?”
He saw her as an annoying temptress.
First, she had kissed him in the bathroom after being drugged. Now, she was touching him while he was sick.
Adam justified his reaction with the excuse that no man could resist someone like her.
What man wouldn’t be drawn to her?
Since his body had warmed up, Celine had achieved the desired effect. Thus, she closed her eyes calmly and said, “Let’s sleep.”
Adam was struck speechless. He had no idea what game she was playing.
Eventually, he fell asleep and had a dream. He dreamed of the girl from years a
ago.
During a past mission, he was betrayed by a comrade. He fell from a plane into a forest and saltered serious injuries. Pursuers had been on his heels. He collapsed to the ground, barely conscious, and was convinced that he would die. At that moment, a young girl appeared with a worn–out doll in her hands.
