Chapter 1502

Penulis: Lean
Whitney wasn't very sleepy—after all, she had just been about to eat a late-night snack.

Seeing that his didn't look so good, and knowing how torturous allergies could be, she didn't say much.

But when he told her to sleep, she couldn't fall asleep—she only closed her eyes to rest.

Caleb watched her for a while, then closed his own eyes.

In the quiet room, with Whitney leaning against him, she could hear his strong and steady heartbeat.

Even her own heartbeat seemed to sync with his rhythm.

To be honest—Caleb was definitely someone who could make a person's heart flutter.

After marrying him, she had heard about some of his past stories.

There were even girls who asked for nothing—just wanting to date him for a single day.

Some had even been willing to risk their lives for him.

You could say it was quite the spectacle.

Whitney had emotions like anyone else.

But she was more clear-headed.

Caleb was someone she simply couldn't bring herself to love.

    Wasn't that the same as giving him no chance at all?Caleb wasn't very happy anymore.Whitney saw his hand start to move and held down the one with the IV drip."Don't move."Caleb gave in.So what if he looked pitiful?"You can sleep on the bed. I'll keep an eye on the IV myself."Whitney shook her head. "It's fine. I'll wait until your drip is done."He knew she rarely stayed up late—unless he had insisted on it."Then I'll have someone take you back. It's not a big deal. No need for you to stay here with me. I can still move."Whitney felt that he had changed.Last time he pretended to have alcohol poisoning just to make her take care of him. This time he was actually sick, yet he wouldn't let her stay."If you're not going back, then let's talk about it—about the fact that I like you."Whitney didn't really want to talk about it. She knew he only said that to make her leave."Alright then, let's talk."This trip to Galarwood was about facing the past.Since running

    "As long as there’s enough profit, there are no good people."Of course, Dianne already knew that.After all, she had lived to this age.If she hadn't been born into the Hilton family, she might have seen the ugliest sides of human nature.As for Whitney, it seemed she had already seen too much—that's why she said something like that.Her original intention was to help Whitney face the past, but now she just felt sorry for her."If you feel uncomfortable, you can let Caleb take you back."Whitney didn't know how the topic had suddenly shifted to Caleb.She quickly said, "I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me. This place... is very far."Dianne didn't explain that the development zone plan wasn't only in the outskirts.Later on, this development zone would also be connected to the "home" Whitney once had.It was part of a poverty alleviation project.Caleb couldn't sleep.As soon as he lay down, his whole body itched.Even taking a shower didn't help.In the end, he

    "Just the two of you came?"Dianne said, "And it’s still leaked."Caleb asked, "Want to come to my place?"Dianne gave him a sideways glance.Across from them, Whitney listened but didn't comment.After all, she had to follow her superior's lead.Under the table, Caleb kicked her.Whitney ended up choking. "Cough, cough!"Caleb handed her a glass of water.Dianne rubbed her forehead helplessly.She hadn't thought his EQ was lacking when he was younger.This kid had always been known for having both high IQ and EQ—and being a little wicked.It seemed Whitney really was his one and only, no doubt about it—his true love."We're not going to your place. I'm afraid we'll get reported."Caleb gave a short reply, "Alright, I'll stay at your place then.""You sure? It's not a comfortable stay where we are. If you can stay there, I can too."Dianne said, "I'm not like you. At least I grew up rough and self-reliant. You were pampered since childhood. You even get rashes from slig

    Her reaction had been within Caleb's expectations.He couldn't help but hold her hand and said gently, "If you don't want to go, I'll talk to Aunt Dianne."Whitney looked at their hands together, and after a moment, still pulled hers back."It's fine. This is my job."Caleb had always known that she didn't like him interfering too much in her work.Last time, he had deliberately taken her on leave to the islands, and although she wasn't happy, she hadn't lost her temper with him.Deep down, she still felt inferior compared to him. No matter how much she wanted to lash out at him, she held it in.But he wanted her to feel equal to him.He wanted her to express her anger.Only then could he guide her forward."Not all work has to be done. If it makes you unhappy, why do it? You don't need to force yourself anymore. You don't have to suffer."Whitney was in a terrible mood at that moment.Caleb confessing his feelings had already caused enough chaos.Now there was also the tr

    But after the meal, Dianne called Whitney into her office."You're not someone who gets distracted at work.""Are you in love, or is something going on? Tell me, and I'll see if I can help you solve the problem."When Whitney heard the word "love," she immediately denied it. "I'm not in love. I'm currently married."Dianne didn't continue talking about love. "What happened? It's rare to see you like this."Whitney couldn't say.After all, it was about Caleb and Dianne was part of the Hilton family."Sorry, I'll adjust myself. I'll definitely do my job well."Dianne asked, "Can you go on a business trip? An inspection in another city."Whitney nodded. "I can. How many days will it take?""A week. Go pack tonight. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning.""Okay.""Go ahead and get back to work."Whitney left the office, went to the restroom, splashed cold water on her face to wake herself up, then returned to her desk and worked seriously.A team member came to report and, seeing

    It seemed that Janet already knew about Caleb's confession to her.Otherwise, how could someone so busy suddenly remember to remind her to eat and take her medicine?That had always been Caleb's job."Also, remember to keep warm. If the pain gets too bad, call me — I'll take you to the hospital."Whitney replied politely, "Okay, thank you."Then she heard the doorbell ring.When she opened the door, it was the Hilton family's driver delivering her dinner."Thank you.""It's my duty. Madam said to make sure you eat well."Whitney nodded.After closing the door, she took her pre-meal medication first.Then she messaged Tanner to ask whether missing one dose at noon would have any impact.Tanner said it was fine but also reminded her not to forget regularly.The body was her own.Yes, the body was her own.She had fought so hard to live — not to destroy herself.And she couldn't let anyone else destroy her either.She opened the insulated bag. Inside, the dishes were made

    If someone was coming to hang out, she would definitely welcome them."I need some time to take things in.""Okay." Jane also thought she needed some time. "But don't overthink it. If you're stuck, just say something in the group chat — we're all here for you.""Alright."Whitney hung up the phone and felt an itch on her face.When she reached up to touch it, her hand came away wet.They were tears.She hadn't cried in a long time.Aside from the involuntary ones that came during certain moments in bed.She was moved.Deeply moved.Caleb didn't know where else to go, so he went back to his own company."Dad, I'm staying in your lounge for a while.""Huh?"Janet was also there and casually handed him a cup of coffee. "Got kicked out of the house?"Caleb took a sip and frowned at the bitterness.It was an espresso."What's this? Are you really my mom?"Janet said, "It's to perk you up. You look pretty down."Caleb was indeed feeling down, but he wasn't into bitterness.

    "It's not a confession..."Whitney didn't know how to explain it. "Did my brother say something to him?"Jane replied, "I understand, you don't believe that he could like you."Whitney fell silent.Should she believe it?She probably shouldn't."Tell me your reasons."Whitney scratched her head, unsure how to explain.She had considered many possibilities.But never once had she thought that Caleb might like her.It was completely unreasonable."I just think..."She thought for a moment, then decided to speak frankly. "How could I be worthy of his liking?""Why aren't you worthy?" Jane immediately retorted. "Do you have missing limbs? Even if you were missing these organs, why wouldn't someone like you? There's no need for a reason to like someone, liking someone is just liking them. You've known each other for a year now, he must have seen your strengths."Regarding the fact that Caleb had known Whitney long before, Jane didn't plan to mention it.That should be somethi
