Chapter 33 KM Group

*MARCELO*

As I headed for the door, Chad walked behind me.

I side–eyed him to find him smiling as he walked me to the door.

“Are you going to follow me to work?“I asked turning to face him.

He slung me a sly smile.

“So Mrs King spent the night in your room.“He drawled.“I can see you two are getting close.”

I rolled my eyes.“What’s weird about us getting close and she sleeping in my room?She’s my wife.“I snapped and walked off.

After freshening up, I sipped on the honey water the maid had brought me,straining to piece together the previous night’s fuzzy memories.

But my mind remained blank.

Elma suddenly let out,her voice excited and sincere.

“Mrs King, you should know how much your husband cares about you. He was by your side throughout the night.”

I rubbed my temple and turned to face her.

“Can you tell me what exactly happened last night?”

With a gentle smile, she recounted.

“You were found dozing off in the bathtub.It was Mr King who found you and quickly brought you out and called for a doctor.”

I sighed in relief, glad that he had found me on time.

I can’t believe that I could have drowned in the bathtub.

Elma continued.

“You were quite stubborn and tensed up, you were lamenting greatly about your wound and you won’t stay calm and let the doctor treat you but Mr King comforted you through it all.”

I choked on the honey water as she said that.

“What?I…He what?”

“Yeah and you were also flirty too. You cuddled up next to him while he comforted you and offered to buy you a
