Love You Can’t Say

I tried to open my eyes, and found Dennis was looking down at me with no expression on his face. There was no light in the room, and the street lamp dimly shone into the room, making him all the more secretive.

I looked at him without speaking, knowing in my heart that he was angry. He hasdn’t said a word since the hotel, and he’d been asking the doctor to make sure I was okay.

At that moment, the lights were turned on and the nurse came in to change the dressing.

She sensed something wrong, and when she saw that the potion was not finished, she left.

His suit was wrinkled in the bright light. His handsome face was haggard, his dark eyes bloodshot, his mouth leathery, but it did not affect his precious grace.

I thought if I didn’t talk, he wouldn’t, too. But he said, “You’re not gonna talk about it?”

Talk about what? I played it over in my head, and I didn’t know how to put it. To tell him I did it on purpose? And it got him in the middle of it.

But without saying that, he already knew after he met Link and Leo.

After thinking about it, I pursed my lips and lowered my head as if I were at his mercy. Let him give me a piece of my mind.

Dennis was a little angry that I was like this. He fixed his black eyes on me. “You did this to yourself just for a scum. Good for you.”

He might have seen the pinch on my body, and his tone was much heavier.

I pressed my lips together, looked up at him, and said, a little aggrieved, “It hurts!”

It really did. Steven hit it hard. I was lucky that he didn’t choke me to death.

He sneered. “You know it hurts?”

Knowing he was angry, I pursed my lips and said, “I didn’t expect him to hit me so hard. I thought he’d give me a few slaps and you’d come, but it didn’t turn out like that.”

He sneered. “So you’re blaming us for being so late?”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

I shook my head and chuckled. “It’s good that you’re there.”

“Why was Andy Lee in the hotel?” He said, his voice becoming serious. “Why was Andy Lee there when you want to fight for Jackie?”

I was also surprised by this Andy Lee. I think it was Jackie who called him. It was just that he was a cunning man, and his subsequent crash made it clear that his presence had saved my life.

I have no proof that he kidnapped me, and no one would believe me if I did.

“I’m not sure. He probably knows Steven, so he came to the hotel to find him.”

His eyes went dark. “Clara, tell me the truth!”

My jaw was hooked by him, and his eyes glowed with danger. “You really didn’t know Andy Lee before?”

I nodded, but could not help saying, “You think I should know him?”

He suddenly sneered, “Andy Lee is Luna’s VP Technologies in City A and he showed up at the hotel where you and Steven were. Would a smart guy like him who’s done so well in business be willing to hurt himself trying to protect someone he doesn’t know? Clara, did you take us for fools?”

I was shocked. Andy and Luna had this relationship?

I looked at Dennis and said, “Would you believe me if I said Andy and Steven were on the same team?”

“Did he hit himself?” Dennis asked, frowning.

I nodded. “He’s smart. He did it before you came.”

“Did he know you before?” The question made me wince. I didn’t really want to talk about that part again.

I paused. “Olivia had him kidnap me.”

“When?”

When I just took over AC and HY Technology Co., Ltd.

He frowned and said firmly, “It couldn’t have been Olivia.”

“Olivia has a special place in your heart.” Looking at him, I smiled dismissively.

He scowled. “She’d only seen Luna a few times in those days. She couldn’t have used Luna’s men.”

“Well!” I did not defend and said, unapologetically, “The first crush is always perfect. It’s the way it always is.”

He frowned, “Clara!”

I thought he was here to check on me, but now it looked like he was here to question me.

Tired, I yawned. “Off you go, Mr. George. I’m tired.”

He held his breath and sat on a chair looking at me coldly, showing no intention of leaving.

When the nurse came in to change the medicine, he stared at her and made her think she had done something wrong. Her hands shook so much that she almost dropped the medicine on the floor several times.

She was relieved to finally change the medicine and hurried off with it.

But after a few steps, she came back, looked at Dennis and shuddered, “Miss Kennedy needs some medicine for the wound on her neck. The doctor has prescribed ointment. It should be at Miss Kennedy’s.”

After the nurse left, he looked at me, a little angry, and said, “Where’s the medicine?”

I pursed my lips and said, “I’ll do it myself later. You can go back now!”

He stood up, ignored me, searched on the nightstand, squeezed the ointment into his hand and wiped it away.

Knowing he was going to do it, I wriggled and said, “I can do it myself.”

But the palm of his hand was already on my neck, and the cream stung as I let him daub.

I frowned and moved slightly.

“Does it hurt?” He lowered his voice and gave me a gentle blow on the back of my neck to ease the pain.

“NO.” I brought this on myself, so I didn’t get to say it hurts or not.

“Don’t be so impulsive in the future. You have to protect yourself even if you’re a schemer.”

I nodded, closed my eyes and didn’t really want to talk.

When he was done, he asked, “Does anything else hurt?”

I shook my head. “No!”

Before I knew it, my clothes were ripped open. Steven kicked me in the stomach. Maybe my skin is too tender, so I have a bruise on it.

He looked at me and asked me angrily, “Are you sure you don’t feel pain?”

Seeing him like this, I stopped talking. Anyway, it would be useless to say more.

He rubbed me up and his anger didn’t go away. Then he looked at the rest of my body and saw that there were no other bruises. He put the ointment aside, tucked me in, and said, “Have a good rest!”

I nodded, “Okay. Thank you.”

His eyes narrowed. “What are we?”

I pressed my lips together. “People?”

Dennis…

Seeing him speechless, I said, “We are husband and wife!”

“Do couples need to be so rusty?” He looked at me coolly.

I didn’t say anything.

…

After a few days of rest… As Leo said, Steven was given a suspended death sentence for killing someone.

Sam Bates was involved in cover-up and dismissed because there were a lot of people involved.

So, Link Kennedy sent someone directly to Newton Town to look into people who had been in contact with Sam Bates before.

And then some of them took Sam Bates to City P, and Hank Gibson had to go back to City P because he had some work to do.
