Chapter 587
When rence stood at the door and saw Ste bringing a suitcase over, his grin became even wider.
When he and Ste exchanged looks, he raised his eyebrows and then stepped aside to make way for
Ste to enter. Ste took a couple of steps and went towards the other apartment. She tried the
password and it was in error.
Ste looked at rence and asked, “What’s the password?”
rence turned and walked into his apartment and said, “I forgot.”
Ste was speechless. She then waved her fist at rence.
At this moment, another door opened and Sherry stuck out her head. On seeing that Ste had a
suitcase, she asked, “Ste, why don’t you stay with me for a couple of days?”
Ste shook her head, “No, I’ll spread the cold to you.”
At this moment, Daniel walked out and said, “How about this? Sherry can stay with me at my ce and
Ms. Radomil can stay here at your ce. It’s more convenient for her to look after her kid.”
Sherry quickly added, “Yeah, Ste, I agree…” Sherry held back her words when she saw the
disapproving expression from rence.
Ste frowned, “Forget it. It’s raining heavily outside. It’s not convenient for you to go out in the rain.”
Sherry then said, “Alright then. Then we’ll not leave. Rest early. Goodnight.”
Daniel wanted to say something but was dragged into the apartment by Sherry and she quickly shut
the door behind them.
Ste turned around and red angrily at rence. After a long sigh, she walked towards his
apartment.
After closing the door, Ste ced her luggage aside and went into the bedroom to take a nket and
laid it on the sofa. rence walked over and then said nonchntly, “I can share half of the bed with
you. There is no need to sleep on the sofa.”
Ste disregarded him, pulled the luggage, and then entered the bedroom.
rence followed behind her and called out, “Ste…”
Bang! The door was shut.
rence was speechless.
So she prepared the sofa for him to sleep in? He knocked on the door and asked, “You’re making a
patient sleep on the sofa?”
Ste replied coldly, “Thanks to you, I’m also a patient now.”
“We can sleep together,” rence said mischievously.
Ste locked the door.
rence gritted his teeth and was dumbfounded for a couple of minutes before walking over to the
sofa.
After half an hour, someone knocked on the bedroom door. rence then said, “Dinner.”
On hearing, Ste realized that she was hungry. She ced down her drafts and opened the door.
There were some dishes and porridge on the table. It was obvious that rence had them delivered.
Ste did not stand on ceremony and sat at the dining table.

rence sat opposite her and said tenderly, “Is your cold getting better?”
Ste dished some porridge and then replied, “Much better.”
rence reached over the table and then felt her forehead. Ste was stunned and then he said,
“Hmm… at least the fever had subsided.”
“But I did not have a fever,” Ste remarked.
rence replied, “Oh?”
It was already nine o’clock when they finished dinner. She ced the kettle on the stove to boil some
water before heading back to her room to continue with her drawings. She had umted a lot of
work and the office had prepared some channels for sales but to date, the new models had not been
ready for sales.
Now that Ste had some time, she wanted to put all her energy into the designs. She was so focused
that she forgot to take her medicine and neither did she notice the knock on the door.
rence opened the door and saw her at the table. She was busy with her drawings. rence stood
at the door observing her for a while before going to the kitchen to pour her a ss of water. He ced
the ss of water on the table and finally, Ste looked up at him.
“Time for your medicine,” rence said.
“Oh.” Ste took over the medicine and checked the temperature of the ss of water. The water was
just right.
After taking the medicine, rence left with the empty ss.
Ste raised her eyebrows in surprise as she did not expect him to be so attentive to details.
Ste was satisfied with her draft and stood up to stretch her back. She then walked over to the door
and gently pushed it open. She saw rence was taking his medicine. So it seemed that rence did
not want to lose his arm.
Ste closed the door and got back to her drawings. She was not at all tired. Perhaps it was because
she slept for the entire afternoon. She continued with her drawings until midnight.
She went out of the room and saw rence sitting on the sofa and working on hisptop. Ste took
the medical box and walked over to him. She sat beside him and rence set aside hisptop. Ste
stared at his wound when she was changing the bandage. Thest two times she had changed the
bandages in the bedroom and the lighting was dim. Now at the sitting room, the lighting was bright and
she could take a good look at the wound. It was shocking.
On noticing, rence covered her eyes and said, “Don’t look.”
Ste replied, “How can I apply the ointment without looking?”
“Follow my instructions.” He said.
Ste was speechless. Why did he have toplicate something so simple?
rence picked up an ear bud and ced it in her hand. He then held her hand and guided it towards
the wound.
Ste followed his instructions and finally managed to apply the ointment and bandaged it. She started
to clear the rubbish and said, “It’s not the first time I’m doing this. What are you afraid of?”
“You didn’t stare at it that way in the past.” rence retorted.
Ste was dumbfounded and could not respond.
rence then said, “It’s my duty to protect you. Don’t me yourself.”
Ste immediately replied loudly, “I don’t me myself!”
rence grinned, “I can hear you fine, you need not raise your voice.”
Ste gritted her teeth and kicked him. What a scoundrel!
She indeed felt guilty but she hid it well from him. But why did he have to expose her? Why did he have
to emphasize it?
Ste stood up but rence grabbed her wrist and pulled her to sit down on hisp.
Ste struggled and yelled, “Release me!”
rence grunted and frowned in pain, “Stop hitting, it hurts.”
“Go on with your show!” Ste yelled.
“If the wound bleeds again, you’ll have to redress the bandages again. Aren’t I doing this in
consideration for you?”
rence grabbed tightly onto her waist as he asked, “Still angry?”
“Are you a broken record? Must you ask every day? Angry, angry, angry! You’re driving me to my
grave!”
Before Ste could finish, her lips had been pressed. Unexpectedly, rence seized the opportunity
when she was distracted and grabbed her head towards him and firmly kissed her.
