Chapter 484


    Fresh off the set, Sasha''s makeup was still camera-ready, and her lips were painted a vibrant shade


    of Marilyn red.


    The color had smeared all around the straw of her bubble tea, which Dr. Chase, a man typically


    obsessive about cleanliness, seemed to ignore as he identally kissed the crimson mark on the


    straw. Then he took several more sips, nodding with satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad at all. Behave,


    and I''ll treat you to another one next time."


    After hisment, he ruffled Sasha''s hair as if she were a mischievous kitten, causing her to bite


    her lip in silent frustration.

    "Chase, you drank my bubble tea!" she used.


    With a quirk on his brow, he shot back, "I bought it for you. Can''t I have a sip? You really are an


    ungrateful little thing."


    Sasha, exasperated by his feigned ignorance, grabbed a napkin and furiously wiped the straw. "Did


    you even brush your teeth before guzzling down my drink? Your breath must be foul. How am I


    supposed to enjoy it now?"


    Hearing herint, Chase, who had just straightened up, leaned in close again, his eyes—those


    damn seductive windows to his soul—fixating on her. "Brushed ''em right before I left. Want to


    check?"


    As he spoke, his lips inched closer to Sasha''s.


    She panicked and blocked his mouth with her hand. "Chase, if you dare kiss me, I swear I''ll end you


    right here!"


    His warm lips brushed against the palm of her hand; a low chuckle reached her ears.


    "I''m just trying to make a point. Who said anything about a kiss? Though, if you''re interested, bump


    up my sry, and I might consider it."


    "Get lost!"


    With a forceful p to the back of his hand, she felt a sting of sweet retaliation.


    Chase drew a sharp breath, a mischievous smile on his face. "With that fiery temper, a kiss would


    probably take years off my life. No thanks."


    Then, he settled back into his seat and started the car.


    Sasha red at him, fuming silently. "One of these days," she thought, "this infuriating man would


    be the death of her."


    Distracted, she sipped her bubble tea and opened WeChat on her phone, her irritation melting away


    as she saw ra''s message with her godson''s ultrasound photo.


    [Look, Sasha, here''s your godson''s pic. Handsome little guy, isn''t he?]


    Forgetting her earlier annoyance, Sasha smiled at Chase, holding up the phone. "ra''s having a


    boy. Look how cute he is!"


    Chase''s lips curved into a smile at her candid excitement. "You''ve got a godson now. How about


    treating me to dinner tonight to celebrate?"


    Without hesitation, Sasha agreed. "Where to? Pick anywhere you like. My treat, in honor of the


    happy news."


    "Alright," Chase said. "There''s this new amusement park with a Ferris wheel restaurant. They say


    the view is incredible, and the food''s top-notch. Shall we?"


    "Perfect. I''ll book us a spot."


    As they worked out the details, Chase''s phone rang with the hospital''s number. He answered


    immediately.


    "Chase, we''ve got a post-op patient in bed 28 with severe vomiting and a persistent fever. We need


    you here ASAP."


    He floored the elerator and sped towards the hospital. Once there, he ushered Sasha into his


    office, pressing her into a seat before donning his white coat. "Wait here for me. I''ll be back as soon


    as I can."


    Though Sasha was ufortable being sidelined, she understood the weight of his responsibilities.


    She had learned that such emergencies were part of the deal with Chase.


    For once, she nodded obediently. "Go on, then. I''ll use this chance to look over the script."


    Dressed for duty, Chase threw Sasha aplex look before heading out to save lives.
