Chapter 201 If You Get Close to Each Other
Suddenly, Lincoln’s voice came from behind Zayla.
Zayla was stunned.
She thought, when did I see him naked? And I wasn’t running away!
“Mr. Nash, I didn’t… see anything I shouldn’t have, did I?”
“Are you saying that you got so close to me, and yet you still didn’t see clearly?” His answer made her speechless. She didn’t know how to answer him at all.
She thought, did I see him clearly or not? Either answer doesn’t feel right.
The atmosphere froze.
Lincoln walked in front of Zayla, bending his long legs slightly and meeting
her gaze.
“Maybe we should come closer next time. What do you think?”
She thought, if so, we would be pressing each other’s bodies. I don’t think so.
Zayla quickly changed the topic.
“Mr. Nash, if you are that idle, why don’t you spend more time on Simon?”
She thought, no matter how strained their relationship is, he is Simon’s uncle after all. In other words, he is Simon’s elder. They are related.
“Huh?” Lincoln looked at her, interested in knowing what she was about to say.
Zayla shifted her gaze and said, “Mr. Nash, I remember you telling me to stay as far away from Simon as possible. But now, it’s Simon who has been pestering me like some sticky candy. You are his uncle. Shouldn’t you do something?”
“I told you to stay as far away from him as possible because I knew he would come to you.”
Zayla seemed to have understood something. She looked up and met his
burning gaze.
“If you get close to each other mutually, then I’ll be the third wheel. Right?” Lincoln pressed the tip of his tongue against his cheek, and his eyes flickered.
He thought, now that everything is out in the open, and she knows what I want, I need not continue to hide it.
After all, she has shut everyone out because of Simon. If I want to win her heart, I have to stick to it.
As for the dignity of men?
What the heck is that?
Zayla was speechless for a second.
“I’m sure Mr. Gladstone must be anxious by now. I’ll go see him.”
As soon as Zayla finished speaking, she quickly walked toward Marlowe’s ward.
Lincoln looked at her back and curled his lips.
He was sure now.
Even Spicy would never run as fast as she did now.
Zayla knocked on the door and entered Marlowe’s ward.
When Marlowe saw Zayla, he was overjoyed, and he immediately expressed
his gratitude to her.
“Thanks to you today. If it weren’t for you, I’d be doomed.
“You are my savior.
“Tell me. What do you want? Or is there something you want to do? I’ll be of help if it’s something I can do.”
Zayla looked at Marlowe and was not in a hurry to make any requests. Instead, she asked with concerns about how he felt.
After making sure he was OK, she said, “I’m not sure yet. Mr. Gladstone. I’ll
get back to you when I figure it out, NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
“But I don’t have your number.”
OK?
Marlowe immediately took out his phone.
“Let’s exchange numbers.”
Zayla nodded and exchanged numbers with Marlowe.
Lincoln entered the ward. He thought that Zayla would bring up the matter regarding the old jade mine directly.
After all, nothing weighed more than saving one’s life.
As long as she brought it up, Marlowe would definitely agree with any requests she made. However, she didn’t mention it at all.
Lincoln narrowed his eyes and looked at her, intrigued.
He thought, what is she thinking? What is she planning?
I vaguely feel that I’m part of it.
Then Marlowe told Lincoln and Zayla that the police had called, saying that after investigation, they confirmed that the group of people just wanted to
kidnap a rich person for an astronomical ransom. It was a kidnapping case.
However…
