Chapter 147: I Don't Need to Explain Myself to You

The hallway was dimly lit, and the tall man's shadow stretched across the nearby wall.

It elongated suddenly.

The first thing that caught the eye was his long and perfectly straight legs, even ordinary black cotton linen pajama pants seemed to exude a noble vibe.

His face was stern with furrowed eyebrows, and his icy gaze fell upon Joe who quickly bowed in respect. "Master Kelvin," Joe said with utmost deference. "Lady Emelia has taken a liking to this room." Kelvin was momentarily surprised but then his expression turned frosty as he looked at Emelia who shivered under his cold stare. Her lips parted slightly as she spoke softly. "Kel... Kelvin, I like this room. Can't I sleep here?"

Emelia considered herself to be quite attractive and delicate, so surely even someone as aloof as Kelvin would show some gentlemanly manners towards her. But unfortunately for her, in Kelvin's eyes, there were only two types of people, there was no distinction between men and women.

In the professional world, there were only two types of people in his eyes: those who had value and those who didn't.

In his personal life, the only distinction he made was between those who were relevant and those who weren't.

Emelia fell into the category of someone who was both valueless and irrelevant in his eyes.

Gentlemanly manners?

Kelvin never thought himself to be a gentleman nor had any plans to become one either way; instead he pursed his lips together, before uttering a word coldly, "No!"

It shattered all of Emilia's fantasies about staying in that room, leaving her looking bewildered.

"Kelvin, why?" She asked him plaintively but even Kelvin didn't have an answer himself; it just felt wrong having her stay next door to him.

He found a perfect excuse for himself though - He hated Franklin and his children, such as his daughter Emilia who saw herself as a princess from the Foley family!

Kelvin lowered his eyelids slightly while thick lashes covered up any displeasure that might have been present within them before answering coldly, “No reason! I'm just not used to having someone next door.”

In the empty hallway, the dim yellow light failed to create a warm atmosphere; instead, it gave off a somewhat unreal feeling.

Emilia stood by the half-open door with one hand resting on its handle while wearing an expression of hesitation on her face; she could take just one step forward into that room but ultimately lacked courage due to Kelvin's overpowering aura which made even such ordinary pajamas look imposing!

Her breathing rate slowed down a bit, and a smile appeared on her pale face. "But... didn't sister-in-law also live here before?"

He said he wasn't used to having someone live next door, but why could her sister-in-law was an exception?

At the mention of that woman, Kelvin's slender figure trembled slightly and his shadow swayed along with him.

With his hands clasped in front of his chest, he continued to gaze at her with cold, unfeeling eyes. His voice was icy as he said, "I don't need to explain myself to you, Joe. Take her to find another room."

"Yes."

Emelia could clearly feel his dislike towards her now. A hint of mist gathered in her beautiful eyes as she asked in a pitiful tone, "Kelvin, do you not like me?"

"No," he replied bluntly.

Kelvin's personality is such that he disdains lying and does not have the patience to waste precious rest time accompanying Emelia here.

“I just knew... about Aunt Gracie's matter back then..."

What about her mother?

Having paid the price of her life, her mother had to be considered the culprit who turn Gracie into a vegetative state. At least Gracie was still alive, but she lost her mother when she was only three years old.

All of this is owed to them by Corey and Kelvin; it is owed to them by the Foley family.

She just wanted this room, but Kelvin refused coldly. How would she expect him to feel even a shred of remorse?

“It's getting late, Joe. You should take Emelia to another room."

Kelvin gave the order expressionlessly, turned decisively and left. His tall figure gradually disappeared from Emelia’s sight.

“Yes, Master Kelvin."

In the hospital, after sleeping for two days and one night, Eddie finally passed the critical period and opened his eyes on the third morning. Unfortunately, he was still very weak and unable to speak.

"Brother, that's great. You finally woke up. I thought..."

Seven stabs.

Her brother was just a weak scholar, how could he withstand such torture?

He almost lost my life.

Kate's intermittent crying came into his ears, like a drizzling spring rain, dropping bit by bit onto his heart.

He also thought he would never see Kate again.

This girl was so emotionally dependent that if he was not around her, she wouldn't be able to survive on her own.

"I heard Eddie woke up, so I came to take a look."

At the entrance, a striking figure suddenly appeared. The woman was dressed in a hospital gown, and her pallid face was covered with white gauze, which added a touch of eerie beauty to her small face.

Eddie wanted to speak with excitement, but he still had the breathing tube, and the pain in his body was intensified tenfold.

He could only make a dull sound, his worried gaze fixed on her, as if asking what was wrong.

"Brother, don't get too worked up. Cheyenne got into trouble after you did, but luckily it's nothing serious. She just needs a few days to recover.”

It was him...

Eddie had so much he wanted to say to Cheyenne, but in his current state even speaking was difficult.

He had no choice but to give up.

Those people... they weren't from Akloit. He was sure of that.

"Alright Eddie, take care of yourself first and don't worry Kate. She's been staying up all night taking care of you these past few days. You two rest well now and I'll go back home." S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Although her concussion wasn't fatal, every movement caused her head pain like she was carrying a small mountain on top of it.

It felt heavy and painful at the same time.

"Cheyenne, let me walk you back.”

Kate stood up ready to support her arm but Cheyenne smiled and declined while reaching out with her hand to touch Kate's face.

"It's okay; my room is just next door, so it's not far away. Now that Eddie is awake, you can finally relax too and get some rest.” "Mm-hmm."

As soon as she left Eddie's hospital room, Cheyenne's stomach began growling loudly.

After thinking for a moment, she held onto the back of her head with one hand, then slowly moved forward step by step, which became quite comical because she looked so pretty doing it.

She grabbed hold of a young doctor wearing a white coat who happened by with round almond eyes, then asked softly, "Excuse me, sir; can you tell me how to get to the cafeteria?"

The young man's eyes quickly flashed with surprise while his ears turned slightly red before pointing in one direction.

"Okay, thank you."

She gave him an enchanting smile and slowly walked towards where he pointed.
