Chapter 17 Doomed 

When they returned to the villa, Henry’s b*dy temperature had reached its peak, his face flushed, and his breathing heavy. 

Evelyn stood three meters away, tightly pursing her l*ps, her eyes fixed on the man’s fingers 

rubbing against the buttons, not daring to make a sound. 

It’s over, this time, she’s definitely doomed. What should she do now? 

Click, click, click… After a series of sounds, the suit was taken off and thrown to the sofa. 

Evelyn’s breath became tighter, her heart stubbornly pounding. Her brain rapidly searched for 

a solution. 

Her wounds hadn’t fully healed; if she went through this again… 

Henry sneered, “Evelyn, do I look that terrifying?” 

Terrifying! 

Very terrifying! 

Evelyn remained silent. 

He chuckled, “Come here.” 

Evelyn had no choice but to approach step by step and sit beside him. 

“Don’t be angry. I’m not afraid of you, just… afraid of pain.” 

Henry’s hand tightly held Evelyn’s waist, his breath moving from her ear to the corner of her l*ps, smiled faintly, “Don’t worry, the effect of the medicine has subsided.” 

Evelyn suddenly realized, “Henry, you lied.”

She angrily tapped on Henry’s back. 

He immediately stopped smiling. 

“I didn’t use much strength…” 

Before she could finish speaking, the slight blood on her hand blocked her words. How could she forget? Henry was also injured. 

A whole kettle of water, she only had a few blisters on her b*dy, and the rest spilled on Henry’s back. 

“You’re injured, why did you still run out? Don’t you know wounds can get infected?” 

Evelyn, with red eyes, reached to unbutton Henry’s shirt. 

Henry, who had experienced countless battles and Injuries, had never uttered a word, Yet, when he saw the concern in Evelyn’s eyes, he softly exclaimed, “It hurts.” 

“Knowing it hurts and still running around, later when the wound festers, that’s when it really 

hurts.” 

While scolding, Evelyn’s actions became noticeably gentler, afraid she might accidentally hurt 

him. 

The feeling of being treated like a treasure softened Henry’s heart. 

If a little injury could exchange for care like this, he could endure it for a lifetime. 

Not knowing what he was thinking, Evelyn, earnestly applying medicine to each blister, finally 

sighed. 

“Most of the blisters have burst. Try not to get them wet these days.” 

Evelyn stretched her arms, feeling a bit tired. 

“I’m going to sleep, you should rest too.” 

This day had been both thrilling and frightening. She was already exhausted. Returning to her room, ready to rest, her phone uncooperatively rang again. 

Instinctively, Evelyn entered the bathroom. 

“Evelyn, I miss you. Can you come see me?” William’s repulsive voice came through.

Evelyn frowned but didn’t reply. 

He continued urgently, “I’ve already explained to Mia. You misunderstood me in the afternoon. It was just a misunderstanding. If you really ignore me, my heart will ache.” 

“Evelyn, I can explain.” 

“Evelyn, I got into a car accident just to see you. Can you really ignore me?” 

On the hospital bed, William spoke patiently, clenching his fist. Obviously, he had reached his 

limit. 

Evelyn could even imagine his expression. The more she thought about it, the more nauseous 

she felt. 

“I’m not convenient to meet you,” Evelyn replied casually. “The land matter has been settled, 

and t 

he auction will follow the standard procedure for signing contracts, starting with the payment 

of a deposit. However, The Wilson Group will not actually require your money, and I will find an opportunity to refund the deposit to you later on.”

No need to spend money and still gain face at the auction. William was naturally more 

satisfied. 

Without waiting for William to say more, Evelyn coldly hung up the phone. 

At this moment, Henry’s hand, which had fallen in front of the bathroom, quietly withdrew.” 

Ah! 

So it was all because… not convenient!
