Chapter 144 The Fall
Cam shot Kate a nce. Although she didn’t want to admit it, Kate seemed to have pointed out the
truth. Rather than being afraid of Ss, she was just nervous, her heart leaping to her throat whenever
he spoke to her.
Cam’s condition was fairly stable during her one-week stay at the hospital. Ss had stopped staying
overnight to take care of her, but he would pay her a visit every day. Meanwhile, Cam started doing
things she never thought she would do in the past. For example, she would stay in the hospital garden
for a while every day. To make it easier for her, Ss got her a wheelchair and would even help her with
getting in and out of the wheelchair. Cam found it awkward initially, but she got used to itter on.
Eventually, she came to the conclusion that she must have read too much into it. I guess that’s why I felt
that Ss was acting weird. Would she find it awkward if Landon hugged her? No! She would even make
him get into a morefortable position. So why would she reject it when it was Ss who did it?
Her embarrassment suggested that she had some unnecessary thoughts. Instead, she should be
forthright and treated him like how she treated Landon. Upon some convincing, she eventually epted
it. After being discharged from the hospital, she spent two days working at her studio and finally had
some free time. All of a sudden, she felt that she should treat Ss to a meal. Be it thanking him for
taking care of her during her hospitalization, or fulfilling her promise, she should prepare a meal for him.
On the same day, she put on some makeup to get ready to go to the supermarket. Just when she
entered the elevator, she bumped into Ss, who was going to work. shing a smile at him, she
greeted, “Hi, Mr. Nn. I wanted to call you and tell you that I’m going to treat you to a meal tonight.” A
hint of surprise shed across Ss’s gaze as his lips curved into a smile uncontrobly. I knew she’s
going to treat me to a meal! Smiling, he said, “Alright, where are you.” “I’m going to the supermarket.
What are your favorite dishes?” Cam inquired. Ss couldn’t help smiling and sized her up. She was
wearing a white coat and a pair of stilettos, while the makeup looked perfect on her beautiful face.
Eventually, he couldn’t help but tease, “Aren’t you worried that you might twist your ankle if you go to the
supermarket in this outfit?” Cam was rendered speechless. What is wrong with my outfit? I’m not goingN?velDrama.Org (C) content.
to a wet market anyway. After I’m done with grocery shopping at the supermarket, I don’t even need to
carry the groceries myself as I will tell the delivery guy to send them to my home. Why can’t I go to the
supermarket in this outfit? So, she snorted, “I’m not worried at all!” The elevator doors opened after she
finished her words. Once she stepped out of the elevator, her left foot stamped on her right foot as she
fell down directly. In that instant, she closed her eyes and waited for her imminent fall as she med
Ss for jinxing her. However, to her surprise, she fell into a pair of strong arms. Subconsciously opening
her eyes, what fell into her gaze was Ss’s shocked expression. He inquired, “Are you alright?”
At that moment, Cam’s heart pounded against her chest. Just like a soap opera, the male lead
managed to save the falling female lead. Seeing such scenes on television when she was younger, she
would urge the characters to hug and kiss.
However, when that happened to her in real life, she was utterly embarrassed as her face flushed. Apart
from her fall, she had also asserted that she would never fall down again. How embarrassing! She didn’t
even dare look at Ss, for he must beughing at her. Lowering her head, she replied in
embarrassment, “l-I’m fine.” Ss’s lips curved into a smile, not because he wasughing at her but
because he simply found her adorable.
Cam couldn’t be described as adorable as she never acted coquettishly, nor was her face the cute
type. In fact, she didn’t need all of those to get what she wanted.
