Chapter 46
“The doctor came to check just now. The wound isn’t open. Stay and talk to me. It won’t hurt if you distract me,” Blair said.
Mable was dumbstruck.
‘Talking to you can stop the pain?’
Blair was happy to see Mable so worried about him. Only then would he feel that he had a place in her heart.
Even if that was not the case before, he was sure he had earned a place in her heart after the incident this time.
“Don’t take what my mom said to heart. She can’t sway me, and I won’t let her hurt you half as much,” Blair suddenly said.
Mable shrugged, seemingly unbothered. “Thanks for protecting me just now. You did not need to do that. It’s not worth getting into a fight with your mom over me!”
As soon as she said that, she felt Blair grip her hand even harder.
“Mable, you’re worth it!” Blair said while looking into her eyes.
Mable pursed her lips and turned to look outside the window.
“Blair, thanks for saving me again.”
Blair played with her hand and smiled faintly. “So, how are you going to thank me this time?”
Mable pondered seriously.
‘Repaying him with money?
‘He’s not short of money, though.
‘Get rid of his enemies for him?
‘No, it’ll expose my identity.
‘Giving him a mine or a shipping line?
‘They might not be of use to him, and it’ll also expose my identity.’
Mable thought for some time but still could not think of anything suitable.
“Let me know if you need my help in the future. I’ll do it if I can.”
Blair replied to her, “There’s no need to wait.”
Mable stared at him.
Blair continued with an attractive voice, “Mable, let’s not divorce, okay?”
As Mable looked into Blair’s eyes, which were full of emotion, her heart beat faster.
Although this was not the first time he had said this to her, this time, he was more serious than before.
“Blair, you—”
Blair cut her off before she could finish. “You don’t have to give me an answer now. I’ll give you time to consider. I’m not in a hurry.”
He was patient enough to wait.
Mable was a little guilty and did not dare to look him in the eye.
After a moment of silence, Blair took the initiative to change the subject. “Was the sniper who ambushed the villa last night hired by Frank?”
Mable’s eyes flickered. If Blair knew the assassin was from Secret, he would definitely get to the bottom of it.
“Mm. It was an assassin he hired.”
With this matter directed at her, she did not want Blair involved. She also did not want him to investigate Secret.
Blair was indignant. “Where’s Frank? Was he caught?”
Mable was mad when she heard that. “No. He and Marissa escaped.
“Not only did they escape, but they also stole all of the Jeffersons’ assets.”
Mable looked at Blair with a smile. “Blair, I’m only left with a company now. Are you sure you don’t want to divorce me?”
Blair’s face darkened. “Do you think I’m after your family’s assets?”
Mable was speechless.
The Jeffersons were one of the most powerful families in Ashdale, but they were still inferior to the Fowlers in Richworth.
“Or are you worried I won’t be able to support you?” Blair frowned at her.
Mable touched her nose. She was about to say something when her phone rang.
She picked up the phone. “Hello, who’s this?”
Next, a teasing voice came from the phone. “Who’s this? I’m your daddy!”All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
