Chapter 1027 - 528: Extra: I Want to Be Married to You 1
Alice struggled to suppress her sobs, but she couldn’t stop the choking in her throat."Miss Alice, my car is just up ahead, let me help you get in..."
No matter how Keith tried to persuade, Alice remained standing still, unmoving.
The rain poured down harder, and a car that was speeding suddenly stopped at the roadside.
The windshield wipers swept the rain at their fastest speed, Chester’s face was cold and devoid of warmth.
Suddenly, he turned the car around and stepped on the accelerator.
The car sped through the heavy rain, and in the view, that frail white figure gradually appeared.
She still stood in the empty space of the restaurant, the rain cruelly pouring down on her...
Keith’s suit was completely soaked, and even covering her head couldn’t shield her from the powerful rain.
Chester squinted, his face already ashen.
Keith noticed Chester’s car, and he immediately ran over...
Keith kept knocking on the car window, pleading constantly, "Boss... If you don’t agree, Miss Alice will really keep standing here... It’s not just heavy rain today, there will be a typhoon warning later... Could you bear to watch Miss Alice stand here getting drenched?"
Chester remained indifferent, his deep eyes staring at her.
Her vision was gradually blurring, her body increasingly unsteady...
Abruptly, Chester opened the car door and stepped out.
Keith was overjoyed and hurriedly used his clothes to shield Chester from the rain...
Chester walked up to Alice, his face darker than the morning sky.
In a daze, Alice saw Chester, her lips curled slightly, and she weakly called, "Brother..."
Chester’s cold lips pressed into a line, and he didn’t speak.
Finally, Alice couldn’t hold on and fell directly in front of him...
Luckily, Chester reached out just in time to catch her...
Alice woke up in Chester’s room.
When she woke up, she found it was already dark, and the large room showed no sign of Chester.
She tried to get up, and a servant hurried forward to support her, "Miss Alice, you’re awake?"
Alice removed the damp towel from her forehead and asked, "Where’s my brother?"
The servant replied, "Mr. Robinson is not at home..."
"Where did he go?"
"I don’t know... Mr. Robinson just brought you back, you have a fever, Mr. Robinson asked me to take good care of you."
Hurriedly, Alice picked up the phone on the bedside table and quickly dialed Keith’s phone number.
Just as Alice anxiously waited for the call to connect, the servant suddenly said, "Miss Alice, Mr. Robinson is back."
Alice abruptly lifted her eyes and met Chester’s gaze as he entered the room.
Alice slowly put down the phone and softly called, "Brother..."
Chester gestured to the servant to leave, then sat on the bedside.
Alice rushed into Chester’s arms, hugging him tightly, sobbing uncontrollably.
Chester let her hold him until her sobs slowly diminished, then gently pushed her away and said, "Do you really think I can’t handle you?"
Alice shook her head vigorously.
Chester reached out, gently stroking Alice’s tear-stained delicate face, deeply gazing, "How can I ever trust you?"
"Huh?"
"You said you’d stay away from me and never appear before me again."
Alice suddenly smiled, "Brother, are you agreeing with me now?"
Chester smiled faintly, "Maybe I really can’t handle you."
Alice jumped into Chester’s arms and hugged him tightly with excitement, "I knew it, I knew it... Brother, you wouldn’t leave me alone."
In the evening, Alice’s fever had subsided.
At this moment, she was sitting on the sofa in the villa’s hall, waiting for Chester.
Chester went out in the afternoon and hadn’t come back yet, while Keith had helped her buy a ticket for an eight o’clock flight to France tomorrow morning. Since it was too early to leave tomorrow, she feared she couldn’t say goodbye to him, so she planned to farewell him tonight.
Hugging a cushion, she leaned on the sofa, her eyes always fixed on the door.
The servant saw she hadn’t rested well after her fever subsided and couldn’t help but show concern, "Miss Alice, why don’t you return to your room and rest. When Mr. Robinson returns, I’ll notify you."
Alice smiled slightly at the servant, "No need, I’ll wait for him here."
The servant saw Alice was determined and didn’t say more, quietly retreating.
Alice leaned bored on the sofa, her eyes suddenly focused on the crystal lamp.
Unconsciously, the image of Chester inviting Rebecca Quentin to dance under the crystal lamp flashed in her mind, and her heart felt inexplicably sore.
