Love Worth Fighting For

116 Spend the night at hospital

“Before working with Mr. Clarke I didn’t work anywhere, I worked at home helping my parents in our cake shop, so it seems impossible that we have met before, sir,” said Elena politely.

Areez tilted his head, unsure. “Really? You’re not trying to fool me, are you?”

“Why did Elena fool you, Areez?!” from behind suddenly Christian answered Areez’s question curtly.

At the same time Areez and Elena turned towards the source of the voice, where at this time Christian was walking towards Elena with a suspicious look. Noticing Christian’s aura of anger, Elena slowly leaned back until her body finally hit the wall.

“What are you talking about?” Christian asks in a half-whisper to Elena.

“I’m just saying hello to your secretary, Christ.” Areez answers Christian’s question of Elena without guilt.

Christian who had been holding back from greeting Areez finally turned to Areez who was standing behind him. “I was asking Elena, not you.”

Areez smiled faintly, what an irony. Christian’s attitude is still very unfriendly. “Elena was talking to me, so it felt like if I answered your question it would be the same.”

“You’d better get out of my sight, Areez. You have no business in this place.” Instead of responding to Areez’s words, Christian diverts the conversation by directly expelling Areez without hesitation.

.....

“We’ll leave after learning about Miss Clarke’s condition,” Aldrich answered quickly.

“Leave after knowing my sister’s condition? What does my sister have to do with you guys? Isn’t it your business with my father, huh?” Christian asks again curtly.

“Indeed, it’s just...” Areez’s words were cut off when Aldrich suddenly grabbed his shoulder.

“Isn’t it unethical if we just leave without saying goodbye to Mr. Jackson Clarke,” Aldrich said quietly in place of Areez speaking, Aldrich was worried that Areez would be let go if he continued talking to Christian. Now they have to keep a secret about what they have done to Suri for years.

Erick, who had been silent all this time, slowly approached Areez and Christian who were arguing, without feeling the slightest suspicion, Erick then talked to Aldrich. Apologies on behalf of Jack for any inconvenience caused. Not long after talking to Erick, Aldrich then invited Areez to go home.

“How can Daddy work with them, Erick?” Christian asks coldly without taking his eyes off Areez and Aldrich who are walking towards the elevator with Nicholas driving them home.

Erick pursed his lips. “Mr. Jack never refuses to cooperate with anyone, young master. Especially those who share the same vision and mission as Muller Finance International.”

“Don’t talk to me about vision and mission, Erick,” Christian retorts.

Knowing that Christian was not in a good mood, Erick then turned his attention to Elena who was standing behind Christian with their heads down. “Is this lady that you introduce as your future wife, young master?”

Elena flinched, unconsciously squeezing Christian’s arm. Trying to ask for protection from him, Elena wasn’t ready to answer the question that was put to her.

“Don’t bother my woman,” Christian says curtly as he takes a step forward, shielding Elena from Erick’s gaze. “You better take care of that damn Areez Floyen, tell Daddy to cancel all cooperation with him.”

“Sorry young master, I can’t do that,” Erick replied calmly.

Christian chuckles in annoyance. “You’re just like Daddy, both never want to hear what I have to say.”

After saying that Christian then pulled Elena away from Erick to an empty chair which was quite far from Suri’s treatment room, Christian wanted to keep Elena away from Erick and all of his father’s men. Christian knows that Elena is uncomfortable with them.

Just as Christian asks Elena to sit down, Jack comes out of Suri’s treatment room with a nurse who goes straight to the nurse’s office to get a new blanket for Suri. With a tired look on his face, Jack talked to Mr. Kaoru and his wife for a few minutes before finally the Japanese husband and wife came home.

“Wait a minute here,” Christian says softly.

Elena, who didn’t want to be left behind, gripped Christian’s hand tightly. “Where are you going?”

“I’ll say goodbye to Daddy, then we’ll go back to the hotel.”

Elena shook her head. “No Christ, you can’t go home. You have to stay in the hospital, your sister needs you.”

Christian’s lips curl. “Suri is awake, her condition is stable. Currently there is a doctor and my parents are taking care of her, my presence is no longer needed here.”

“Even though your sister is aware you still can’t go home, you have to be here. Your sister will definitely look for you,” said Elena again.

“But I won’t let you sleep in the hotel alone, I don’t want it if you have to...”

“I’m going to spend the night here with you.” Elena immediately interrupts Christian’s words with a big smile, a smile that makes Christian melt.

Christian’s eyes are wide open. “W..what?”

Elena chuckled. “You really think I want to go back to the hotel alone, do you?”

“But, aren’t you afraid of hospitals, aren’t you?” Christian asks innocently.

“Yeah, but it’s even scarier if I’m in a strange place without you,” replied Elena shyly.

Christian’s cheeks immediately flushed, for the sake of the god Neptune, this is the first time Christian Clarke has blushed. Throughout his love story so far, Christian has never wanted a woman as much as he wants Elena now.

Just as Christian was about to give Elena a kiss, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps approaching, Christian immediately changed his plan by pretending to clean the dirt in Elena’s eyes. Elena, who was initially confused by Christian’s behavior suddenly blowing her eyes, finally understood that now not far from them, Jack was standing with his two assistants,

“Can we talk for a minute, Christ,” said Jack quietly.

Christian, who was ready to welcome his father, then winked at Elena, signaling her to stay quiet and not go anywhere. Elena, who knows that she can’t control Christian for herself right now, nods quickly, giving an answer to the code that Christian gave earlier. With a suppressed smile, Christian slowly got up from Elena’s side and rushed over to his father who was waiting for him with Erick and Nicholas.

“What’s the matter, Dad?” Christian asks dryly. Although his relationship with his father has not improved, Christian tries to be polite to his father.

“It’s getting late, if you want to go home you can...”

“I’ll stay at the hospital,” Christian immediately cut his father’s words when he realized that his father wanted to send him home. “With Elena.”

Jack raised an eyebrow. “Elena?”

Instead of answering his father’s curiosity, Christian turns his body and immediately pulls Elena to stand with him face to face with his father again. “Elena, my future wife.”
