Chapter 51
"Dad,why did you-" "Shut up! I can't believe you stooped so low as to do such a thing! How is it that you're my daughter? Seems like I'll have to do a DNA test,cause there's no way I have such an evil minded person as a child! You two,take her away!" Two of the bodyguards held Chloe by either arm and dragged her out of the room while ignoring her frantic screams for them to let her go. William didn't even spare a glance at the others in the room before he left.
"Harper,are you okay?" "Me? I-I'm fine" "How about aunt? Where is she?" "Oh mom? She's at the hospital. But how did you-" "Ruby's the one who told me that Chloe had mom kidnapped,she also told William and brought him here" "You-" "It's okay, there's no need to thank me, you've already helped me out before so I just decided to repay the favour" "Oh well then-" Harper was about to say something when Ruby's phone rang. "Sorry, it's dad calling me. He probably wants me to come over" "So you're leaving now?" "Hmm" "Okay, have a safe trip" "Bye"
Harper watched as Ruby left before turning back to look at Harrison. The man was quite handsome but now there was a gash on his cheek. She felt heartbroken upon seeing it and immediately called for a waiter to bring something for her to clean the wound. Harrison saw her undisguised concern for him and furrowed his brows "There's no need for that, I'm fine" "But Chloe almost ruined your face!" Harper really wasn't exaggerating, one wrong step and Chloe could have stabbed Harrison in the eye.
"I don't rely on my face to make a living" "But I like looking at your face!" Harper's words stunned Harrison and he looked at her with a deep gaze, making her blush. She wasn't lying,he was a very good looking person even more so than the high ranking executives of the company. Several women liked sneaking glances at him at work and she hates admitting it but she was actually part of them. She also didn't know why but Harrison seemed awfully familiar like she'd seen him somewhere else before...
"So,you only like my face?" "No, I like every part of your body! That-" Harper looked up to meet Harrison's smiling eyes and she hit him slightly with her fist "You teased me!" He simply smiled and she was about to say something again but she saw the wound on his cheek again and suddenly felt low "You got hurt again because of me, I'm really the biggest trouble in your life-" Her words were cut off by a warm hand on her lips "Don't say that again okay? And this was all my fault,I was too slow to realize that someone was making things hard for you. You're not trouble at all. You're the person I like the most in my life" His words made her heart warm up. Who ever said quiet men can't speak words of love? Harrison was a man that doesn't talk much but every word he spoke just now was extremely heartwarming.
The waiter finally brought the alcohol and cotton. Harrison saw it and was about to leave when Harper suddenly grabbed him by the arm "Where do you think you're going?" "I already told you, I'm fine" "No you're not!" Harper suddenly had a burst of energy and pressed Harrison against the wall. He was quite surprised by this and leaned against the wall while raising a brow and looking at his wife. She actually just wall slammed him
Harper tiptoed and gently applied the medicine to Harrison's wounds. She saw his muscles tense up and immediately dropped the medicine to blow on it, alcohol on a wound was a pain like no other. She blew on his wound softly and looked up at him while asking "Does it hurt?" Harrison glanced at her before taking her hand in his and placing it on his chest where his heart lies. "It hurts here" "Uh?" Harper's mind went blank for a moment. He clearly wasn't injured there,was he?
"Anytime I think of you leaving me,it hurts here" His words made her look up at him. His beautiful grey eyes held only her reflection and there was a small smile on his lips. She almost couldn't bear his gaze on her and her cheeks turned red like a ripe tomato. "Miss, you're so stubborn, always threatening me with divorce. What can I do to make you stay by my side forever?" His voice was deep and mellow, like the bass of a piano. Harper's legs went weak as she stuttered "H-how about I give you a baby?"
