Chapter 645 I''m Wholeheartedly Willing


    "Forget it? You think that you aren''t a good match for me, so you''re treating my feelings this way,


    right?"


    Frank forced himself to swallow his anger as he growled, "Raque, do you know how deep my


    feelings are for you?"


    However, Raque did not wish to continue the conversation any longer.


    Now, her mind was in turmoil and she was unable to think of any answer.


    "All right, let''s save this conversation for next time."


    Frank could only let out a helpless sigh at the sight of her frantic expression.


    "Okay, I won''t ask you anything before you can ept the answer.I hope that you can really think about


    it carefully."


    She nodded, feeling a trace of guilt inexplicably well up in her heart as she looked at his look of


    disappointment.


    However, at this point in time, things would only continue to go further downhill the more they spoke


    about it.


    In the end, the two ended their talk in an awkward atmosphere.


    They weren''t particrly giving each other the cold shoulder, but as Frank''s enthusiasm seemed to


    have quelled, Raque didn''t go out of her way to spark a conversation with him either.


    Upon returning to her room, she suddenly began to feel an ache in her throat and a wave of nausea.


    Hence, she nned to take a short rest on the bed, but she unexpectedly drifted off to sleep instead.


    In her dreams, she felt a strange sensation, as if a ball of fire was burning in her chest.


    Wishing to put out this fire, she frantically ran all over the ce to look for a source of water, but her


    efforts were futile.


    In the end, just as she was frantically tearing at her clothes, a hand suddenly grabbed hers and pulled


    her into an embrace.


    "Don''t be scared."


    Raque shook her head as she desperately attempted to break free, but the hand held onto her so


    tightly that she was unable to put up a fight.


    Atst, she startled awake from her dream only to see Frank sitting next to her and holding her in his


    arms without budging an inch.


    "Frank..."


    She opened her mouth, only to find that her throat was achingly sore, making it arduous to utter even a


    single word.


    "If I''m not wrong, you''ve probably tested positive.Since you''re not feeling well, take a good rest and


    stop imagining things."


    He pulled out a sheet of tissue and began to wipe the cold sweat off her forehead.


    Instantly, Raque panicked, and she looked at him frantically as if silently reprimanding him for his


    recklessness.


    "It''s all right.You don''t have to worry about me."


    As Frank looked at her, his gaze gradually softened.


    "It''s fine if I get infected as long as I can take care of you."


    At his words, Raque squeezed the words out of her throat in a hoarse voice, saying, "I...I don''t want


    you to take care of me.Hurry up and leave before you get infected too..."


    Even so, Frank insisted obstinately, "What''s the problem with taking care of you? I already said that I


    don’t care about getting infected, so what are you worried about?"


    Raque immediately lost her temper and mustered all her strength to shove him away from her.


    "Do you think that getting infected with this is a joke?"


    He was infuriated by her actions, but as she was currently a patient, he couldn''t pick a fight with her


    either, nor could he simply leave her behind and abandon her.


    Hence, he softened his tone to the best of his abilities and said, "I know that you''re worried about my


    safety, but two people in your family have already been infected.novelebookIf I don''t take care of


    the two of you, who will? You don''t have to worry.I''ll be extremely careful.Besides, I''ve always been


    healthy, so it''s fine even if I get infected."


    Tears rolled down her face uncontrobly.


    She knew that Frank was doing this for her own good, but she just couldn''t bring herself to ept his


    kindness.


    In the end, she could only say helplessly, "Thank you."


    "No need to thank me."


    He pulled her into his embrace once more and caressed her hair.


    "If you really want to thank me, you can use your body to do so."


    Hearing that caused Raque''s face to instantly freeze.


    "All right, you''re a patient now, so I''ll stop joking around with you."


    With that, Frank rested his chin on her hair and mumbled, "I hope you''ll get better soon."


    On the other hand, Yelena had never expected that Federick would sessfully locate her.


    As she looked at him panting for breath yet sporting an icy expression before her, she turned silent


    from fear.


    "Why are you in a ce like this? What is this ce?"


    Her head lowered and afraid to speak, Yelena replied in a small voice, "Shouldn''t I be asking you how


    you found me?"


    "Yelena!"


    "Yes!"


    "Why on earth are you here?"


    Federick was nearly about to lose his mind from the senseless woman before him.


    Who would leave with a man they didn''t know without understanding the situation clearly and not even


    knowing where they were headed to? Yelena took a few steps back in her best attempt to keep a safe


    distance from him.


    "A stranger said that he wants to talk to me about something, so I followed him here."


    "Which stranger? What is his name? Where is he now?"


    She turned a little awkward at his onught of questions.


    "He''s called Slevin Damazio, but I don''t know where he is either."


    "Slevin Damazio?"


    At the sound of the familiar surname, Federick''s expression immediately darkened.


    "It''s rted to Hank, right?"


    Yelena, who failed to sense that something was amiss in his tone, bobbed her head.


    "Yeah.He said that he knows something about Hank, $0 I followed him here.In fact, he did tell me many


    things, and I''vee to understand quite a lot, too."


    Federick gritted out bluntly, "Why do you think that everything he says is definitely the truth?"


    She was caught off guard by the overwhelming hostility in his voice.


    "I think that he’s telling the truth.I don''t know why either; it’s just instinct."


    He scoffed derisively.


    "Let me guess.Did he tell you that Hank''s life is in danger and he doesn''t want to hold you back, so he


    came up with an excuse to deceive you?"


    Yelena jolted in surprise.


    "How did you know that?"


    "Isn''t this exactly what you want to hear right now?" She froze.


    "I..."

    "Yelena, can you wake up? He already abandoned you for another woman, so why are you still


    refusing to let go of him?thuy bao Is he really that much of a good man for you to be so hung up over


    him? Yelena, oh, Yelena.What should I say to you? Which part about him did you fall for? Do you have


    to hold onto him when there are so many good men in the world?"


    Yelena burst into tears at the spew of berating words.


    "I-I didn''t mean it like that..."


    "Why are you crying? What is there to cry for?"


    At first, she did not particrly have the urge to sob, but her tears began to flow down uncontrobly at


    his mocking tone.


    "Why are you so angry, Federick?"


    Federick took a deep breath.


    Atst, he couldn''t hold himself back anymore.


    "Because I like you.Can''t you tell?"
