The Unwilling CEO’s Love Game

Chatper 168

Chapter 168

Harrison’s words were like throwing down the gauntlet to Melvin.

He had always suspected Harrison would not let go easily, but he never expected him to be so brazen about it under the current circumstance.

Melvin glanced back at the closed door and a sardonic smile played on his lips. “You’re just wasting your time.” “I’d spend a lifetime for the pursuit of my love.” came the lofty response.

Melvin’s eyes narrowed dangerously. If Harrison were in front of him spewing that nonsense, he’d give him a beating he’d never forget.

After hanging up, Melvin took a deep breath to calm his irritation.

This Harrison guy obviously harbored ill intention to Jocelyn.

Just as he was about to head back to his room, Daisy called for Jocelyn.

“Daisy, Jocelyn’s resting. We’re just across from the hospital at the hotel… Don’t worry, the hospital will call if anything happens. Please take some rest, and I’ll pick you up this afternoon to visit Calvin. Yeah, okay.”

With the call ended, Melvin didn’t feel the slightest bit tired.

Feeling needed was like being the axis on which the world spun.

Concerned that Jocelyn might be hungry, Melvin called Yara to order some food and deliver them first to the hotel and then to Daisy’s. He also asked her to eat together with Daisy before bringing Daisy over to the hospital.

Everything was arranged perfectly.

No sooner had Yara brought the food than Jocelyn woke up.

Melvin urged her to eat something before heading back to the hospital.

“Don’t worry, Yara’s picking up Daisy. Have your meal and rest a bit, then we’ll be set.” he reassured her.

Jocelyn nodded and asked if there had been any calls from the hospital.

“None.” Melvin hesitated before adding, “Harrison called you.”

Jocelyn was taken aback. “Did you tell him about my dad being in the hospital?”

“No.” Melvin replied, opting not to burden her with Harrison’s words. There was no need.

She was his. Her heart was his. Harrison was barely a blip on his radar.
