Chapter 1694 Vomiting


    Holley had been thinking of leaving for a long time. So, she surely wouldn''t say anything more to Rex.


    The moment Rex finished speaking to her, she quickly rushed out of the mansion.


    After Holley left, Rex made a call. A while ago he still seemed deeply worried, but after the call, he


    seemed to be much more rxed.


    In the meantime, Holley was having a hard time. When she left the mansion located in the suburbs, she


    hailed a taxi in an attempt to go home. In the cab, she kept looking back, afraid that Rex would have


    someone follow her. She was also worried that Ferry would appear again.


    Holley knew that there was no turning back now. If Rex didn''t trust her, or if he spoke to Ferry, she


    would be dead. She''d had no other choice, though. The most important thing right now was to save


    herself from the immediate trouble she was in.


    Thinking about that, she was so scared that she started to sob. The taxi driver noticed that his


    passenger in the backseat was crying, by ncing in the mirror.


    "Hey kid, did you just have a breakup?" he asked sympathetically. He was eager to offer some advice


    to the sad girl, who seemed to be fairly young. He believed that his life experience might be helpful to


    her.


    "No!" Wiping the tears off of her face, Holley looked out the window. She had no intention of sharing


    her feelings; nor did she want to show her ugly side to a total stranger.


    "Girl, let me tell you something. You''re quite good-looking, so don''t get too involved in rtionships yet.


    There''re a lot of things in life that are worth exploring. If you fail in a rtionship, that doesn''t mean that


    you''ve failed in your life!" The taxi driver couldn''t help offering more advice to the sorrowful girl.


    "Excuse me, do I know you? Why are you judging me? Can''t you just focus on driving?" Holley raged


    at the driver.


    ''Even a total stranger is shaking his finger at me! What the fuck?!'' she angrily roared in her heart. The


    driver was stunned for a moment and gave up on saying anything more.


    Suddenly, the air in the cab became so tense that it was almost suffocating.


    Holley heaved a long sigh and turned to look out the window again.


    Before long, the taxi finally arrived at her home. She quickly made her payment and got out of the taxi.


    Holley started walking down the street to her house when, just a few meters away, she saw ck.


    ck was sitting on a bench, looking at the ground.


    Inhaling deeply, Holley slowly walked up to him.


    He had his head hung low, so he didn''t notice Holley. It was only when a pair of long legs appeared in


    his vision that he raised his head.


    All of a sudden, he sprang forward to her and wrapped her up in his arms, murmuring, "Holley, you''re


    back! Where have you been?"


    ck''s body was covered in the smell of alcohol. It was evident that he was already drunk. Even in


    such a delirious state, he could still recognize her though. Since Holley didn''t speak, he continued, "I


    don''t care where you''ve been or where you''re going. I''ll always find you. You''re mine..."


    ck was smiling like a child as he gently kissed her forehead, and said, "I swear that I''ll take care of


    you. I''ll love you. Please, don''t leave me!"Property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    When he said that, he looked like he was going to cry. A myriad of feelings were running through


    Holley''s heart and she fell into deep thoughts.


    When she first got close to this man, she had her own agenda. She wanted to make use of him to


    reach her own goals. After all, the man had a strong family background. However, as time went by, she


    started to have true feelings for him.


    If she had to find someone to me, she could only me ck. He had loved her whole-heartedly no


    matter what. She could feel his sincere love for her, and couldn''t help falling love with him. At that very


    moment, she suddenly realized something.


    ''I can''t be so selfish, and I can''t allow ck to risk his life for me anymore. There''s no way that there''s


    going to be a happy ending between him and me. If we continue in this way, he''ll definitely suffer!'' she


    thought to herself.


    She didn''t want to hurt ck. Eyes turning red, she quickly came up with a way forward.


    The only solution was to tell him outright so she could protect him.


    The only hope for Holley now was that Rex could handle everything for her. Otherwise, she would trap


    herself.


    "Holley, please, trust me!" ck hugged Holley even tighter, afraid that she wouldn''t trust him or stay


    with him.


    Even though he was quite smelly—he was caked in the scent of alcohol and body odor—there wasn''t a


    single trace of disgust in Holley''s eyes. She patiently answered, "All right. I trust you. Should we go


    upstairs and get you cleaned up?"


    "As long as you trust me, I will do anything for you!" ck eximed.


    It was like ck was a little kid. Smiling, Holley nodded and said, "Okay, let''s move slowly. Let''s go


    back home, all right?"


    "Okay, okay." ck nodded heavily.


    Helping each other, they soon made their way into Holley''s house.


    ck started to vomit after the walk. He had been sitting on the bench for a long time, and the night


    breeze was quite cold, so it wasn''t surprising that he would throw up after he had to start moving.


    Holley couldn''t help frowning. Pinching her nose, she tried to avoid the smell.


    "Aww..." After he finished throwing up, he seemed to feel much better.


    Heid down on the couch.


    Heaving a sigh, Holley quietly called out to him. "ck?"


    When she got no response from him, she started to clean the house up.


    ck had vomited a lot, so it took Holley hours to get everything cleaned.


    While lying on the couch, ck began drunkenly talking to Holley.


    "Holley, are you still here?"


    "Yes!" Holley knew that if she didn''t respond to him, he would keep calling her name over and over


    again. Having no other choice, she had to keep the conversation going with him.


    "Holley, please, give me a hug! Hug!" ck said loudly to her,ying back with his eyes closed.


    Holley had to put down the cloth in her hand and went over to hug him.


    After he was satisfied, he fell back asleep. Holley was so tired that she slumped to the floor.


    It was veryte when Holley was done. She took a quick shower before she went to sleep.


    The next day when ck woke up, he had an agonizing headache.


    Every inch of his body felt ufortable. He struggled to open his eyes a bit and was surprised to find


    that he was in Holley''s house.


    He tried to remember what had happenedst night. Even though he couldn''t exactly remember


    everything, he still had memories of how Holley had taken care of him so patiently while he was puking.


    At that thought, ck felt deeply touched. He was so grateful, and it was so overwhelming, that it


    flushed away the memories of the night when he saw her with Ferry. In truth, he had chosen to forget


    that incident on purpose.


    "Oh, you''re awake now! Come to the kitchen and have some breakfast!" Holley came out from the


    kitchen to greet him when she saw that ck had woken up.
