192 I’m Here


    “Sir, I’ll take care of my wound first,” Laras said, trying to get Christian’s attention so that the man would notice her pain.


    But sadly, Christian didn’t really care. He only answered briefly and didn’t even bat an eye at Laras.


    Right now, he was angry with the woman in front of him.


    He only asked this woman to make him some tea, but she didn’te back after he had waited a long time. It turned out that something happened in the pantry, and this incident also involved Laras.


    “E, do you know your mistake?” Christian asked calmly, staring intently at E’s face.


    E immediately pouted when she heard the question. “It’s not my fault!” E shook her head. A stubborn expression appeared on her face.


    E would never admit something she didn’t do. She didn’t hurt Laras. Laras did this to herself.


    After all, Laras was a bad woman. If E wasn’t stronger than Laras, perhaps E would be the one who would be hurt.


    Why should she feel sorry for such a person?


    .....


    “You don’t want to admit your mistake, huh?” Christian immediately picked her up and lifted E’s body on his shoulder. “Looks like I have to teach you a lesson.”


    “Christian!” E struggled, but Christian smacked her in the ass. E immediately gasped.


    What a bad man!


    Luckily, the working hours had been long over so there weren’t too many people there. Otherwise, E would be really embarrassed to be treated like this in public.


    “You keep bullying me. Don’t you feel guilty at all?” E asked irritably, but Christian didn’t answer.


    What’s wrong with bullying his own woman? After all, Christian bullied her so that E would remember this lesson.


    When they arrived at the man’s office, Christian immediately put E down on the sofa.


    Christian felt dizzy when he saw this woman who didn’t want to admit defeat. Christian knew he couldn’t be too harsh on E.


    From his experience, the harder he was, the harsher E would retaliate. After that, the two of them would fight and have a cold war for some time.


    They just made up and Christian didn’t want to fight with E anymore.


    It seemed he could only give E a light warning.


    If he didn’t teach E the right thing, E would repeat her mistake againter.


    “Who told you to look into trouble with her?” Christian asked sternly.


    “I’m not the one looking for trouble with her. She’s the one looking for trouble with me!” E argued in annoyance. She really didn’t understand how Christian could trust Laras so much. How could a woman like Laras earn Christian’s trust?


    Is Christian’s eyesight really that bad? It was obvious that the woman had hope in him!


    Of course all the women who put their hopes in Christian would be jealous of E! That’s why Laras was looking for trouble with her.


    All of this happened because of Christian!


    “Hmm...” Christian replied, leaving E stunned. This time, she didn’t understand what Christian meant.


    It was rare for E to show a look of confusion, but that sweet expression made Christian so much better.


    “Tell me, why is she the only one injured?” Christian asked as he took his seat next to E.


    E’s scent and warmth made him feelfortable.


    “She did it to herself, I’ve told you.” E said. At that time, it was Laras who took the initiative to attack her. If E panicked and got confused at that time, she would not have had time to escape. Maybe she would be the one in the hospital with a burning scar.


    But E knew when Laras wanted to hurt her so she dodged quickly.


    E’s answer made Christian smile. This littledy was really great.


    But Christian thought about E’s answer again. There was only one reason why E could protect herself like that. It was because she had gone through five difficult years.


    Then, Christian finds his thoughts very ridiculous. Of course it’s difficult. How could staying in a mental hospital be easy for an ordinary person?


    “I know everything, I saw it.” Christian said with a sigh.


    He didn’t hear E and Laras arguing from the start, but he did hear a few. He had no intention of showing his presence as long as E was still safe.


    Unless she was in danger...


    “You saw it?” E asked in surprise. So, Christian saw it all? The man watched as she struggled against Laras all the way. “Then you know it’s not my fault!”


    When E said this, her heart felt very disappointed. Christian already knew the truth, but why was he still ming her? She wasn’t the one who started this problem and Christian knew it too.


    “I’m mad that you almost got hurt,” Christian’s face was gloomy.


    Why was this woman’s IQ so low? Should he speak frankly so that she didn’t misunderstand him?


    Christian had treated her with great care, but this woman still couldn’t understand his kindness.


    E looks at Christian. Suddenly, her heartbeat became chaotic.


    What does it mean? Is Christian worried that she will get hurt?


    So Christian is mad at her not because she’s looking for trouble with Laras, but because she could get hurt? Was Christian worried she would get hurt?


    She looked at Christian suspiciously. “Is that true?”


    Christian felt the anger in his heart rising. Why did this woman never understand him? And this woman suspected him too!


    He grabbed E’s chin and said, “Do you have a conscience?” Christian really cared about E, but E just didn’t see it!


    E smiled sweetly. “I just can’t believe that you care about me so much.” Saying this, E grabbed Christian’s hand that was holding her chin and pulled it away from her face.


    After that, she came closer to Christian and kissed his cheek. “I am very happy.” She kissed Christian’s other cheek and then added emphatically, “Really.”


    Seeing E’s happy face, Christian could only swallow his throat as he tried to suppress his desire to own E.


    E hugged Christian and leaned on his shoulder. She didn’t think Christian would care about her this much. She knew that Christian was not a person who liked to lie. Whatever came out of his mouth was the truth.


    That means, Christian really cares about her.


    E raised her hand and drew a circle with her finger on Christian’s chest. “I’m d you care about me. I don’t like being alone. I am lonely.”


    “Lonely?” Christian lowered his head and looked at E. “I’m here.”


    His hand stroked E’s back gently as ifforting a child who had just been injured. After that, he kissed the top of E’s head gently.


    ...


    Meanwhile in the bathroom, Laras was looking at the burn scar on her leg. Her palms were clenched into fists, showing how angry she was at E.
