Chapter 68 I Owe Him


    When ra woke up, Horace was still sitting by the bed. Seeing that she was awake, he poured


    chicken soup from the thermos next to him and said lightly, "You''re up. Have some soup."


    ra sat up with one hand supporting her. Her right arm was injured. She wanted to use her left hand


    to reach out to the bowl of chicken soup. But she hasn''t gotten used to using left hand yet. Seeing this,


    Horace frowned slightly and took the spoon in her hand, "Come on, I''ll feed you."


    Saying that, he took a spoonful of chicken soup, blew it until it''s cooler, and fed it to ra''s lips.


    ra was stunned.


    Horace was feeding her in person?


    She really didn''t expect that she would be so well taken care of like this, but she still opened her mouth

    and drank it obediently.


    She drank the soup in gulps. With her eyes looking at Horace in front of her, she felt a little uneasy.


    Horace always looked so calm and hiding his true emotion, that she couldn''t tell whether he was angry


    or not.


    ra was thinking about whether she should take the initiative to bring up the injury when she heard


    Horace say lightly, "Is there anything you want to tell me?"


    ra froze for a moment, then gave a wry smile.


    Sure enough, in front of someone like Horace, she really couldn''t hide anything.


    "I was just wondering if you''re upset," ra said honestly.


    "Upset about what?"


    ra hesitated. "You are upset because that I got hurt for Darren."


    ra lowered her tone involuntarily when she said these words. Her voice sounded soft, like a feather


    brushing through Horace''s heart.


    Horace looked at her. His gaze softened a bit, "Well, I am indeed angry."


    ra didn''t expect Horace to confirm this so directly. She was stunned, raised her head, and met


    Horace''s eyes.


    Seeing the surprised look of the littledy in front of him, Horace raised his eyebrows slightly, "What?


    Don''t you want to ask me why I am angry?"


    "I... probably know why you''re angry," ra said slowly.


    Horace raised her eyebrows even higher, "Then tell me, why am I angry?"


    "Because I''m your wife." ra blinked. "No man would be happy about his wife getting hurt for her ex-


    boyfriend..."


    Horace''s eyes squinted imperceptibly.


    Hearing ra''s answer, he didn''t know if he should be angry or helpless.


    Did this stupid woman still think he was thinking her as his possession until now?


    She''s really sluggish.


    "Horace?" Seeing that Horace didn''t speak, ra spoke again cautiously, "I''m really sorry. I wasn''t


    considerate of your feelings this time. I''ll be more careful next time."


    Bang.


    Horace put the bowl down abruptly. The spoon hit the side of the bowl letting off a crisp sound. ra


    was startled by the noise.


    "ra, that''s why you think I''m angry?" Horace slowly raised his eyes to look at ra on the bed.


    Seeing her nodding nkly, his eyes became even angrier, "Then what if I say, the reason why I''m


    angry, is more than that?"


    ra froze for a moment.


    More than that?


    But she couldn''t think of anything else that would make him angry. After all, their marriage was fake


    and they had reached an agreement, right?


    Could it be... he was jealous of Darren?


    The thought popped into ra''s mind for only a second. And then she quickly shook her head with a


    wry smile.


    Impossible! He is Horace. If she wasn''t his wife, he probably wouldn''t even look at her. So why would


    he be jealous?


    She was narcissistic.


    "I don''t know." After thinking, she could only look at Horace and say honestly, "Why are you angry?"


    Looking at the confused expression of thedy in front of him, Horace''s eyes shed with anger.


    Next moment, he grabbed ra''s chin, pulled her little face closer to him, and said in a low voice,


    "ra, you really don''t understand, or you are acting stupid with me?"


    ra didn''t expect that Horace would suddenly do this. She was indeed a little scared. Looking at the


    handsome face draw near to her, a trace of panic shed in her eyes.


    Since Horace and her little face were so close this time, he could certainly notice the fear and panic


    shed in her eyes.


    In an instant, he calmed down as if a bucket of cold water was sshed over him.


    Looking at the flustered little woman in front of him, he loosened his hand and finally let go of her.


    "I''m sorry." He sat up straight in the wheelchair again, "I lost my temper just now."


    "It''s okay." ra also felt that today''s Horace seemed a little strange, but she only knew that he was


    still angry. So, she didn''t think about it.


    Horace looked at ra, her eyes squinted slightly.


    When will this stupid woman realize that, his affection to her has be much more than the affection


    for a man and a wife?


    Horace was not a man with a rich experience in terms of rtionships. He had always been in an


    advantage position over girls. He had never really pursued a girl. And this time, he didn''t know how to


    express his feelings.


    Looking at her pale face and the wound on her arm, he could only suppress the irritability and anger in


    his heart. His tone returned to calm, "ra, why did you save Darren?"


    Although this littledy didn''t understand his mind, there were something he had to figure out.


    ra didn''t expect Horace to suddenly ask this. She was stunned for a moment before she said, "I


    didn''t think so much at the time. I just wanted to stop that thug. I didn''t expect that he had been out of


    control and would even attack me."


    Horace''s eyes narrowed, but he still didn''t say anything.


    "However, fortunately, I save Darren this time." ra seemed to suddenly think of something, and her


    eyes flickered, "At least, I feel that I don''t owe him anything anymore."


    Horace then fixed his eyes on ra, "You owe him?"


    "Yeah." ra nodded, "When I was at coge, tuition was actually quite budget. I''ve been applying for


    schrships and part-time jobs. And Darren has helped me a lot secretly."


    She was brought up by Helena alone. Helena has always been in poor health. Especially when she


    was in college, she could hardly support her tuition and living expenses.


    Therefore, she had always applied for schrships and also had taken part in work-study programs.


    But after all, University of Zhanard was also full of talents. Opportunities for part-time jobs and


    schrships were not so easy to get.


    For some reason, although her grades were not very good, she could always get the first-ss


    schrship. Moreover, she could "coincidentally" find convenient and lucrative part-time jobs every


    time.


    At the beginning, she would feel that it was God blessing her. But after knowing that Darren is the


    young master of the Kirnd family, she realized that it should be Darren who helped her secretly.


    ra didn''t like to owe favor to people, especially at this moment that she and Darren have such an


    awkward rtionship.


    Therefore, this favor could be considered as a payback once for all.


    From now on, no matter what she owed him when she was young, or what he had done to hurt her


    now, it had been even. They didn''t owe anything to each other anymore.
