Semua Bab Married a Secret Billionaire: Bab 691 - Bab 700

Fredric did not dare to make too huge of a movement and flipped the blanket open carefully for a look. His clothes were not changed, and his shirt was drenched in blood and sweat. It was unbelievably dirty already.His wound was already bandaged, but the dressing was incredibly unprofessional.He looked up at the girl and asked after some time, “You… saved me?”When the girl blinked and grinned, she looked like an angel on the church mural.“Why? Are you repaying me for saving you?”Fredric paused, still a little groggy due to his fever.He went through what happened despite his blank mind.He had come to Melorian for Trinity, only to get into a shady cab after getting off his flight. He had not been there too frequently before, so he was not familiar with the way. The car had made several turns into a quiet alley, and the driver had shown his menace, even calling an accomplice over.Then… he was stabbed. He passed out after that and was here when he opened his eyes again.“He

Someone yanked up Fredric before he could open his eyes. The searing pain of his wound caused him to shout in hysterics even when he was usually gentlemanly.“Oh, sorry, sorry!” Aurelia apologized hastily. “I found a good medicine and was so happy that I forgot you’re wounded…”Fredric sucked in a cold breath. The forgotten case of his wound had happened too often these days.If he were to be asked, he’d answer that he had never accepted any bribery as a lawyer. He had always upheld justice and fought for the people. He had never done anything to have a guilty conscience!Why did the heavens send someone like this to “heal” him?Fredric chuckled wryly and could only cave in when he saw the girl’s innocent look.“I’ve never taken care of anyone,” Aurelia said softly, passing him the water and medicine. “You’re my first man!”“Pft!” Fredric spat the water he had just drank.Aurelia quickly wiped it with a towel and blinked while she did so. “Did I say it wrong? You’re the first o

Trinity paused, and the cutlery in her hands fell to the plate with a clang.Would she be so anxious? She had not thought of it.She only knew that she had been restless these days, losing sleep and appetite without even changing her clothes. She had never cried so much in her entire life.All she did was clutch the lucky charm in her hand. That was what Fredric had given her, and it felt as if his warmth was still on it.He had told her that he hoped the lucky charm would bring her luck when he gave it to her, but now, she would rather use all her luck in exchange for his safety.Trinity’s thoughts were everywhere. She opened her mouth but could not utter a single word.“I…”“Okay, I know!” Neil’s grin was wide. “You’ll definitely be anxious. Who’s going to be your male lead if I go missing?”After a long time, Trinity hung her head and said, “Sorry.”Neil paused before he continued cutting the steak with a smile.“I’m not a petty person. No need to apologize to me. Besides,

Aurelia’s mind blanked. She had never encountered a situation like this.She lived like a sewer rat for her first 18 years of life. She had never harmed anyone of her own will, but she had had to turn her back on certain things for profits and self-preservation—things like a regular person’s awareness.Upon seeing the stabbed Fredric, a regular person’s first reaction would be to call the police and send him to the hospital.She could not do it. She could not leave him to die but was unwilling to implicate herself because of it.Dragging Fredric back to treat his wound to prevent him from dying on the street due to blood loss was already the best she could do.Aurelia’s heart thumped as she lost her bearing. An evil thought flashed in her mind. She could very well turn around, leave, and lock the door to allow the man to fend for himself in there. When the sun set, she could then drag him out and throw him somewhere. Nobody would know.She sucked in a cold breath. She slapped her

Aurelia held her breath. Her stiff limbs quivered, and she stared at the officer for a while before abruptly avoiding his gaze.He said that she looked familiar… He might frequently patrol the slums and have kept his eyes on the nomads.Aurelia’s face was hard to forget.She bit her lips and blinked her big eyes. She was usually bubbling with ideas, but she was now at a loss.The grip on her shoulders grew stronger as the man’s gentle and husky voice sounded.“Familiar?” Neil chuckled and hugged her tighter. “I told you, I’m an actor. My fiancee too. Both of us starred in the same film before!”The police officer raised a brow in doubt.“Some of our films get translated into Chaisene and played abroad. It’s not odd at all that you think she looks familiar, officer. She’s always on the screen. Everyone knows her!”“Really…”The police officer hesitated and returned Neil’s passport to him, taking a final glance at Aurelia. He was still skeptical, but his subordinate spoke next t
