Chapter 103 Heartless
"Cecil, take a break from the computer. Go to bed early!"
Rosa said as she walked into his room and handed him a glass of water along with seven pills.
Every time Cecil had a meal, he had to take a bunch of pills.
It pained her to see him like this, but she had no other choice.
"Okay!" After sitting in front of the computer for a whole day, Cecil felt very tired as well.
At this moment, he was already quite sleepy.
Therefore, he didn't push on. He simply took the medicine and then lay down with Rosa's help.
"Sleep early. The doctor said that you should rest!" Rosa quickly reminded him.
Cecil lay on the bed and looked at her. He chuckled and said, "I know. It's hard for me to stay awake after taking these medicines anyway. These pills make me drowsy!"
"It's so that you can have a good rest!" Rosa said and turned off the computer.
Then, she tidied up his table.
"Good night. I'll make you some sandwich tomorrow morning." Rosa said with a chuckle.
"Okay!" Cecil liked the sandwiches she made very much, they were more delicious than the ones sold outside.
Rosa chuckled and turned off the lights.
Then, she closed the door and went back to her room.
The clock on the table showed that it was almost 10 o'clock.
She was a little sleepy, but she wasn't done with her homework yet.
So, she decided to finish writing the last section before sleeping.
It was so that she wouldn't overthink in bed.
However, she held her pen and stared at the paper for a while.
Her mind was filled with memories of the time she spent with Henry recently.
She frowned and knocked her own head.
"Ah, Rosa, what are you thinking?"
Could it be that she's falling for her uncle?
No way!
They didn't belong in the same world.
Just like what Paige said.
How long could his feelings for her last?
One month?
Or...
She didn't dare to think about it.
She took a deep breath and got up. Then, she went to the kitchen to get herself a glass of cold water.
After drinking the cold water, she calmed down a bit.
However, at this moment, someone knocked on the door.
Rosa was stunned. "Who could it be?"
She looked through the peephole.
She was stunned by what she saw.
Henry!
How was he here?
Rosa's heart was pounding out of her chest.
Her heartbeat was so fast that she didn't know what to do.
It wasn't excitement. She was afraid.
She blinked her eyes in disbelief.
Was she hallucinating?
She looked out again and her hands flew to her chest. She wasn't hallucinating.
"Thud, thud, thud!" The knocking sound became louder and louder.
Rosa was a little scared. Cecil had just fallen asleep.
If he woke up and saw him, he would start to overthink.
However, she didn't dare to open the door.
She had a feeling that if she opened the door, something terrible would happen.
"Thud, thud, thud!" The knocking sound got louder and louder.
Rosa began to pace around, not knowing what to do.
"No, I can't Cecil hear it, otherwise..."
After taking a deep breath, she gathered the courage to open the door.
It was late autumn, but he was only wearing a long-sleeved shirt.
His collars were unbuttoned, and his loose tie was crooked on one side.
Even his bangs were slightly messy because of the wind.
The man who had always looked clean and tidy appeared in front of her looking like a mess.
Rosa frowned in disbelief and said timidly, "Uncle... how did you find this place? And isn't it your mother's birthday today?"
Only after her phone was repaired that she saw Miranda's missed calls.
That was when she called her.
She found out that it was her grandmother's birthday.
A lot of guests were invited to their house.
But she didn't expect him to suddenly appear at her place.
She never told Miranda where she lived!
For a moment, she didn't know what to do.
The man was wearing a suit jacket, and his dark eyes were fixed on Rosa's surprised expression.
The corners of his lips lifted slightly, revealing an evil grin.
Then, he dropped himself into her arms.
Rosa let out a shocked gasp from the sudden weight.
His weight was too heavy for her.
Her legs trembled slightly and was about to fall down, but she managed to hold on.
"Uncle... Uncle..."
She called him a few more times, but there was still no response.
Helplessly, she stretched out her hand and leaned over to lift his head...
However, as soon as she saw his handsome features, she paused for a moment.
The distance between them was not more than a finger away.
They could even feel each other's breathing.
It was the first time she had looked at him so closely.
His fine features...
He was truly a sight to behold.
With such a perfect outline, paired with his high nose bridge and thin lips, he was like a Greek statue that came to life.
No wonder Grace said that he could make women go crazy for him.
Rosa didn't think much about it. She frowned and gritted her teeth as she helped him to her room.
Then, she closed the door.
Her actions were like a sneaky thief. She carefully shut the door.
After that, she closed the curtains.
She then turned on the lights and looked over.
Her bed was tiny. It was only one and a half meters wide.
If he lay on top of it, it would take up more than half of the space.
Rosa frowned and sat on the edge of the bed. She could smell the wine from him.
How much did he drink tonight?
"Uncle..."
She called out softly.
But the person on the bed didn't seem to have any reaction.
Had he passed out?
She reached out and patted his face gently. "Uncle, wake up."
There was still no reaction.
Rosa didn't say anything and pinched his nose in disbelief.
There was still no reaction.
"Uh..."
It seemed that he was really drunk.
But how did he find this place?
She couldn't figure it out, so she simply stared at him on the bed.
No one knew that she wasn't doing well these two days.
As long as she was free, she would miss him very much.
This kind of longing made her a little overwhelmed.
She felt that she wasn't a good girl.
But...
NOW PLAY YOUR
FAVOURITE GAMES ON
She really couldn't control herself.
The person who she had been missing for two days was lying unconsciously on her bed.
Rosa approached him and poked him, but there was no response.
Seeing this, she finally relaxed and said, "How do you look so gorgeous? No wonder Miss Baker is so worried about you!"
She pouted. This man could really make his woman worry.
Because she leaned close to him, she could see his tie hanging crookedly.
She didn't know if it was because of the wine or whatever reason, but his neck was stained red.
Rosa reached out and gently undid his tie.
Only then did she realize that his body was extremely red.
"What's going on?"
He was as red as a tomato, which made her worry.
Rosa reached out her hand and touched him gently, only to find that his body was a little hot.
"Does he have a fever?"
She quickly reached out and touched his forehead.
However, his forehead was cold.
Rosa was confused. "Could he be allergic to alcohol?"
She didn't think too much about it. She immediately opened the door, went to the bathroom and brought a basin of cold water.
She went back to her room and undressed him.
His body was overwhelmingly red. This was something she had never seen before.
She quickly wiped him with a wet towel.
She wiped his neck very carefully and kept going down.
When she reached his abdomen, she was completely stunned.
This figure...
She wondered if he often went to the gym.
Otherwise, how could he have such a good figure?
The man lay on the bed, seemingly unconscious.
His flawless face paired with his well-defined figure...
She remembered the times he forced her.
Even the time before he left, he warned her...
"Next time you get lost in thought, I'll kiss you until you beg for mercy!"
All of a sudden, Rosa was a little angry.
Why was he the one in charge every time?
She looked at the man in front of him who had fallen asleep and was defenceless.
Rosa didn't know what was going on either.
In an instant, she had an idea. She stretched out her finger and poked him hard in the chest.
She cleared her throat and said arrogantly, "Hey! Listen carefully. If you don't move, I'm taking off your clothes. Should I take off your shirt first or your pants?"
After that, she suddenly smiled.
No wonder he liked to take lead every time.
When she said those words, she felt really powerful.
"Maybe shirt first. One step at a time."
"Hmm? Good idea." Rosa grinned happily when she heard someone's comment.
However, before she finished smiling, it was immediately replaced with fear.
"Ah!"
She covered her mouth and yelled miserably.
Immediately, she distanced herself from him at the speed of light.
Her round eyes widened in fear and looked at him in disbelief...
The man's eyes were dark and bright. He didn't look like he was drunk at all!
Thinking of what she had done just now, she was overwhelmed with embarrassment.
She covered her burning cheeks and wanted to leave.
But the next second, she was pulled into his embrace with great force.
His arm seemed to be gently placed on her back, but she couldn't beat his strength at all.
His other hand gently held her shy little face and forced her to look into his eyes.
Rosa's face was red as the sun.
He enjoyed the look on her face and smiled faintly. "Where did your confidence go? Hm?"
With a loud bang, Rosa's head erupted like a volcano.
"You..." She said angrily. "You're not drunk at all!"
"Who said I'm not drunk?" The man chuckled.
Then, her surroundings went into a blur and she could hear the sounds of fabric shuffling.
When Rosa came back to her senses, she was pressed underneath him.
"You heartless thing, you ran away behind my back?" The man was very angry.
Rosa bit her lip. Looking at his angry expression, she tried to explain, "I... I..."
However, after a long time, she didn't know what to say.
"I already know," he said.
"Huh? What do you know?" Rosa still didn't understand.
"About Paige looking for you!"
Rosa froze all of a sudden. "How... how did you find out?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she covered her mouth immediately. Oh dear, how could she be so stupid?
Looking at her embarrassed and annoyed look, his mood finally lifted. "Dummy, what are you hiding for? You still have me!" He said helplessly.
