Chapter 85 Can’t I Provide
For You
What just happened?
Hadley’s eyes widened in shock as the bread got stuck in her throat. It was too dry to swallow and too lodged to cough out.
Her coughs erupted uncontrollably.
“Hadley?”
Startled by the commotion, Eric rose swiftly and moved to her side from across the table. “Are you alright? Show me!”
He reached for her chin, trying to examine her mouth.
Despite her persistent coughing, Hadley vigorously shook her head, refusing his help. Her mouth was filled with half–chewed food–hardly a pretty sight.
Moreover, why should she allow it?
“Don’t be so stubborn!” Eric’s frown deepened, his impatience apparent. It seemed he might pry her mouth open by force if necessary.
“Mr. Flynn.” Kira, who had been quietly watching, intervened with a glass of water in hand. “It seems she’s choking. Let her drink this.”
Gratefully, Hadley nodded, unable to voice her thanks.
“Hurry, hand it over!”
When Eric took the glass from the housekeeper, Hadley tried to grasp it, but he held on.
Instead, he guided the glass to her lips. “Drink this.”
Left with no alternative, Hadley sipped from his hand.
After a few large gulps, the bread dislodged.
Relieved, Hadley pushed the glass away.
“Are you sure you’re all right now?” Eric looked concerned.
“Yes,” Hadley replied, finally able to speak. “I’m okay now. Thank you.”
“Alright then.”
Eric let out a sigh of relief and placed the glass on the table. He playfully flicked her nose
