Chapter 214
Dennis looked at Marie, feeling somewhat angry, but his eyes still showed a hint of affection. “Why did
you
Marie rolled her eyes and said, “The weather’s good. I came out for a walk.”
Dennis looked at her helplessly, “You made such a big detour from the clinic just to take a walk in the
shooting range?”
Marie smiled and looked pleased, like a cat that had gotten ahold of a treat. “No! I’m here to see
yton,” she
said as she pulled on Dennis’ shirt.
Dennis was shocked. “Why are you looking for him?” He asked.
yton looked at her in surprise. Marie chuckled and replied, “To tell him we’re leaving and that he’s
treating
us to dinner! Isn’t that right, yton?”
yton looked at Dennis awkwardly and nodded, “Well, yeah. We haven’t eaten together for a long
time. Why
not do so today?”
Dennis looked at Marie. She looked at him pleadingly, ying cute as she tugged on the corner of his
shirt
and swayed back and forth. It was as if she was about to throw herself into his arms.
Dennis looked at her helplessly and rubbed his temples before nodding. “Fine,” he agreed dryly.
Although it was a curt response, yton was overjoyed. His usual stern self eximed happily, “I’ll go
get
Gavin! Let’s all go together!”
Dennis nodded, still not looking at him. yton immediately left the shooting range and headed to the
clinic.
Flicking Marie’s forehead, Dennis asked, “Did youe here to y the peacemaker?”
Marie rubbed her forehead and walked closer to Dennis. “Who said I’m trying to mediate? I’m obviously
here
to show off my sharpshooting!” She retorted.
“Help me go back,” Dennis sighed helplessly.
“Okay!” She eagerly helped him walk back, nagging endlessly along the way. Cullen followed, watching
them from behind and thinking, Marie is probably the only person Dennis would dote on.
That evening. Marie helped Dennis go to dinner. They had nned to eat out, but Gavin insisted that
Dennis
couldn’t take any car rides, so they had the meal in yton’s room.
When they arrived, Marie helped Dennis sit down. Gavin sat next to Marie and whispered, “I heard you
were the one who encouraged them to make up?”
Marie shook her head solemnly, “No! My Dennis is so big-hearted. He doesn’t need anyone to
persuade him.”

Gavin was speechless.
Dennis is big-hearted? If he is, then no one in this world who holds grudges! He thought sarcastically.
Marie pursed her lips and asked, “What’s wrong? Is he not magnanimous?”
Gavin shook his head.
Marie leaned over to Dennis and immediatelyined, “Den-Den! Gavin thinks you’re petty!”
Gavin choked, “What the hell kind of nickname is that?”
With a proud look, Marie boasted, “We’re engaged. I can’t always call him by his full name. That’ll
seem too
distant!”
“Why not Den? Or just Dennis? Isn’t Den-Den too cheesy?”
Gavin stared at Dennis. Would this cold CEO ept a nickname like that?
Dennis took some food for Marie and said, “As long as she likes it.”
Gavin covered his face. It’s over, he thought. Dennis’ aloof image was gone.
Dennis wasn’t just a henpecked husband. He hadpletely given in to her.
If this was just their engagement, Gavin couldn’t imagine what it’d be like once they were married.
Even if Marie wanted to demolish Whitney Group, Dennis would probably hire a construction team to
assist
her.
“Gavin, why do you keep covering your face?” asked Marie.
Gavin shook his head, not wanting to talk. He just wanted to mourn for Dennis’ lost image.
Dennis quietly remarked, “He’s jealous of me.”
Marie nodded, “I think so too. After all, your fiancé is too sensible.”
“Ahem!” yton choked on his wine.
“yton, what’s wrong?” Marie asked.
yton waved his hand, “Nothing, nothing.”
“Eat. You wereining that you were hungry earlier, but now you’re not eating,” Dennis
interjected.
Marie frowned as she looked at the pile of food in her bowl. “Den-Den, I can’t eat that much…” She
whined.
“Give some to me. I’ll help you,” Dennis said, pushing his te over.
Marie happily put the food into his te, leaving only the meat for herself. She then began eating.
Gavin and yton stared as Dennis, who had always been a neat freak, ate the food Marie put on his
te. They silently nced at each other and lowered their head to eat.
It seemed more like a banquet for Dennis and Marle than a meal to celebrate yton’s reconciliation.
Gavin and yton were about to gag at the romance in the room. However, they couldn’t leave as they
were
the ones who arranged this dinner.

Therefore throughout the meal, all they could hear was Marie calling for “Den-Den” non-stop as Dennis
patiently talked to her. Gavin and yton pretended not to exist as they watched the couple eat.
Dennis nced at yton and asked, “Are you eating or not?”
yton was taken aback when Dennis suddenly spoke to him. Dennis added, “Don’t drink anymore.
There’s
nobody to drink with you.”
yton looked at his wine ss. Dennis and Marie were injured and couldn’t drink, and Gavin didn’t
drink
either. He was the only one with a ss of wine.

Dumbfounded, yton nodded, “Oh, okay. I won’t drink anymore.”
A
Looking at yton’s silly expression, Marie couldn’t help but chuckle.
Dennis was indeed a person who held grudges, but yton was his best buddy. He could never cut off
ties
with yton. It was just that Marie had been wronged, so he wanted to avenge her.
However, Marie didn’t feel as if she was wronged. She was happy to have Dennis protect her
wholeheartedly.
Therefore, she was willing to let go of those conflicts and help Dennis and yton make up over a
meal.
Although they didn’t drink, the atmosphere had be very lively by the end of the meal.
Dennis and yton chatted while Gavin and Marie bickered. It becamete before they knew it.
It was only after Gavin said that the two patients needed to rest that yton sent them back.
When they arrived at the clinic, Marie and Gavin headed in first. Dennisgged behind and only walked
in
after yton had said something to him.
Gavin leaned over and asked, “Talking behind our backs? What did yton say to you?”
Dennis looked at Marie affectionately as he replied, “yton said to send him a wedding invitation as
soon
as possible.”
Marie saw the look in Dennis’ eyes and blushed but didn’t say anything.
Gavin smacked his lips and walked over to pat Marie on the shoulder. “Impressive, you snagged
another one!”
He eximed.
-With a smug smile, Marie looked at Dennis and said, “I only want this one.”
Gavin covered his face and returned to the office silently, berating himself for being so big-mouthed as
to
chat with the couple.
Marie helped Dennis back to his ward. He stopped her before she could leave and asked, “Where are
you
going?”
Confused, Marie replied, “I’m going back to my room to sleep.”
Dennis raised his eyebrows, “You don’t sleepwalk anymore?”
Marie turned red and scratched her head awkwardly. “Well… sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t,” she
said.
Dennis pulled her back and closed the door. “Don’t sleepwalk tonight. Just sleep here,” he told her.
Marie lowered her head and smiled, following Dennis into the room as she muttered, “Gavin will be
angry
tomorrow…”
“Who cares,” Dennis said dismissively as he removed his jacket. However, his shoulder was injured, so
he
failed to do so even after two tries.
Marie removed his jacket and hung it at the side, saying, “Your wound hasn’t healed yet, so don’t
always try to
do everything yourself.”
