Chapter 454: Madam, You Have to Take Responsibility for Me
Evelyn was annoyed and raised her voice, "You still dare to mention conjugal duties?"
"We’ve already done it, so why not mention it?" Caden spoke arrogantly.
He instinctively moved closer to Evelyn, pulling at his wound, and took a sharp breath, with his face turning pale just as it had started to regain some color.
"Are you okay!" Evelyn panicked, "I told you not to move around! Why won’t you listen? Let me see the wound, is it bleeding? Should I get the doctor? I..."
"I’m fine," Caden said softly, "It’s just a bit painful, but lying still is fine, the bed is soft."
Evelyn examined Caden closely, and seeing no intense pain on his face, she was slightly relieved.
"So why did you move around?" Evelyn scolded, "Do you think you’re still a three-year-old? Can’t you take responsibility for your own body?"
"As long as I’m responsible for you," Caden replied casually, "By the same token, you have to be responsible for me."
Listening to Caden’s words, Evelyn felt both angry and amused.
Sometimes when Caden acts shamelessly, it makes one want to hit him, yet he’s endearing in a shy way!
This demonic man!
"If you stay closer, I won’t move," Caden spoke up.
Then he added, "And, if you don’t defy me, I won’t move either."
"Then move!" Evelyn glared at Caden, "Move! Move however you want! I’m not stopping you!"
As Evelyn’s words fell, Caden actually started to move.
Evelyn was startled and immediately rushed to Caden, shouting, "You jerk! I give in! I’m coming over! Stop moving, will you?"
She glared angrily, raising her eyes to meet Caden’s mischievous grin, realizing she was being teased.
It seemed that he knew, once he pretended to move, she would definitely give in!
This annoying man!
She lightly bit her lip, her cheeks turning red, revealing the happiness in her petite charm.
Feeling Evelyn’s warmth, Caden appeared very satisfied.
Holding her in his arms, he gently caressed her back and softly asked, "Today... did I scare you?"
"Mm." Evelyn replied honestly, "Worried that you might not survive, yet realizing there’s nothing I can do when facing death, it just makes me feel so useless."
Hearing Evelyn’s response, Caden’s heart felt like it was punched fiercely.
He was asking if she was scared during the kidnapping.
But in her mind, did she subconsciously think his situation was more important?
"Silly girl." Caden’s voice was deep and pleasant, sounding very comforting, "I promised you, I wouldn’t leave you."
Evelyn nodded, her lips forming a faint smile, nestled in Caden’s embrace, listening to his heartbeat.
Thump—
Thump—
Every beat was steady and strong, providing reassurance.
Evelyn felt this was the most beautiful sound in the world!
Caden and Evelyn lay in bed, chatting casually as time passed, and under Caden’s repeated insistence and various antics, Evelyn could only accompany him on the hospital bed to fall asleep together.
After a tiring day, both still recovering, they quickly drifted into sleep...
