Chapter 2323 Dislike Me

An hour and a half later, Nicole slowly woke up.

The person holding her was warm and strong. His arms were muscular.

Last night's scenes returned to her mind in an instant.

Nicole was afraid that she was just dreaming, so she looked up at Clayton’s face. Just as she was about to get up, his hand subconsciously tightened, and she fell back on him again.

However, she hit his leg.

Clayton's face instantly turned pale from the pain. Then, he opened his eyes.

Nicole realized that something was wrong, so she quickly got up, knelt beside him, and subconsciously lifted the quilt to have a look.

However, Clayton stopped her by grabbing the corner of the quilt. He stretched out his hand to pull her onto him and said with a sleepy and lazy voice, "What are you doing so early in the morning?"

Nicole felt a little guilty.

"Did I hit your leg? Does it hurt?"

"No, it doesn't hurt."

He stroked her hair reassuringly.

Nicole remained silent.

Clayton realized her silence, so he sat up, leaned back, and sighed.

"It hurts a little, but it's like being kicked in a dream. The pain will go away soon. It's okay."

Nicole blinked, and there was some doubt in her watery eyes.

"What should we do? Do you need to take medicine? Should we go to the hospital?"

Clayton pursed his lips and softened his voice.

"No, I brought back the treatment device from abroad, and it's in the office at the restaurant. If I continue treatment every day, it won't hurt. It's just inconvenient to walk."

The doctor advised him to walk less, but Clayton wanted to stay fit, and he did not want to become a disabled person.

"Don't treat me like a porcelain doll that can’t be touched. This is a long­term treatment process. I only worry if you'll dislike me..."

He said the last three words softly.

Clayton said something so important casually, but it felt heavy on Nicole's heart.

She seemed to realize what Clayton really cared about.
