His Precious Love

Chapter 566

Chapter 566

Rayna hurriedly wiped her mouth with a piece of napkin and stammered, “Y-You wanted to sleep with him?”

“No! No!” Kristie refuted. “I'm afraid of the dark! That was why I asked him to guard me while I slept! Don't talk nonsense, you little brat!”

With that, she pulled Carl's ear.

Carl yelped in pain before saying aggrievedly, “You could've just switched on the lights, no? You aren't making sense, Aunt Kristie!”

“Shut up!” Kristie glared at him. “If you keep talking, I'm going to choke you!”

Hearing that, Carl quickly moved away.

Seeing that Rayna was still staring at her, Kristie felt embarrassed. She stomped her feet and complained, “Why are you staring at me? Do you think I'm into him?”

Rayna asked tentatively, “Then why did you—”

“No way!” Kristie retorted, shooting James a side glance. “He's so old and ugly! Besides, he's just a bodyguard! How could he ever be worthy of me?”

Rayna wanted to defend her brother, but she didn't know what to say. She could only glance at James pitifully.

As a matter of fact, there was nothing she could do to help James.

James, on the other hand, didn't say anything throughout their conversation. Instead, he pulled himself a chair and sat down to watch them eat.

At around eight in the evening, James wanted to bring Kristie away, so he said to Rayna, “I'll bring her home to rest. Since Mr. York is in the hospital, you should be fine, right, Rayna?”

“Huh?” Kristie was stumped. Why did he address Rayna so? She then forgot about the fact that James was holding her hand when she grumbled, “Why did you address Rayna by her name?”


James quickly came to his senses and replied calmly, “I talk fast, so you must've heard it wrong.”

Thinking that she didn't hear him wrongly, Kristie said, “But I heard—”

Rayna interrupted her by saying, “Kristie, you've been staying in the hospital all this while. You need some rest. Go home, okay?”

“I don't want to go home!” Kristie pouted. “Can't I just stay here with you and Carl?”

Rayna waved dismissively. “Listen to me. You can come over again tomorrow morning.”

“All right, then. I'll bring Ms. Winton home now.” James pulled Kristie out of the ward.

Kristie only realized that James had been holding onto her hand after exiting the ward. His palm is so warm, and I'm getting a weird feeling.

She yanked her hand out of his grip. “W-We're going back, but can you please stay away from me?”

Kristie distanced herself from him while mumbling something to herself.

James was at a loss for words. I haven't pissed her off recently, right? Why is she acting this way?

Usually, Kristie would sit in the passenger seat. When she went back with James that evening, however, she sat in the back. She would always talk to him back then, but she kept to herself that evening.

James noticed all the changes in her behavior as he drove in silence.

After arriving at the condominium, James prepared some fruits and brought them to the living room for Kristie. When he saw that she was on her phone and ignoring him, he asked patiently, “What's the matter with you, Ms. Winton?”

“I'm perfectly fine.” Kristie kept her head lowered and her eyes on her phone.

James frowned and sat next to her before snatching her phone. “You've been avoiding me since last week. You aren't even talking to me. How have I upset you?”

“I just don't want to talk to you! What's wrong with that? Give me back my phone!”

When Kristie reached out toward the phone, James lifted his arm into the air. The moment she stood up, he also rose to his feet at once. In the end, she couldn't even reach his arm.

Kristie grew frustrated due to the huge difference in height. She stomped her feet and glared at him. “What are you trying to do?”

“Tell me, how have I upset you? I can change.” James stared at her intently. “Don't keep avoiding me and shutting me out.”

Kristie's heart jolted when her eyes met James'. Averting her gaze as quickly as she could, she muttered, “I don't need you to change. I'll just ask Curt to find another bodyguard for me. Please leave.”

James was stunned. “What have I done wrong? Why are you getting rid of me?”

“You've done everything wrong!” Kristie shouted angrily. “All you need to know is that I don't need you anymore. Pack up and leave!”

James noticed how worked up she was, but instead of arguing with her, he said, “Ms. Winton, even if Mr. Faymon could find you another bodyguard, he wouldn't be able to find someone as impressive as me. Besides, I'm a great cook.”
