Semua Bab Game Over, Mr. CEO: Your Wife Is Done: Bab 151 - Bab 160

She couldn’t exactly ask Zion about it either. If she did, he would know she had been trying to get Roy to teach her how to shoot behind his back.Winter sighed three times in a row.Great. He had already been cold enough. Now he had turned into a complete block of ice.She turned the wheel and merged onto the main road, leaving downtown behind.The roads were full of out-of-town workers riding motorcycles home for the holidays. Winter eased off the gas a little so she wouldn’t startle them.The sounds of motorcycle horns and engines rose and fell around her, sometimes near, sometimes farther off.Soft music played inside the car.But mixed in with the rest of the traffic were a few louder, harsher engine roars. They sounded completely different from the others, more like people chasing each other down the road.Winter’s first instinct was that it was probably just a bunch of reckless guys racing.Then she glanced into the rearview mirror.Several Harleys were weaving through

Besides, even though Roy had gotten mad at her for no reason, he still came to save her the second she was in danger.That alone was enough to make sure she couldn’t just leave him behind.Fortunately, Roy at least cooperated with Gavin’s examination.After the examination, Gavin said to Winter, “He’s not injured, ma’am. You can rest easy.”Gavin wasn’t the type to say things lightly, so Winter finally let out a breath of relief. Then she picked up the phone Roy had tossed onto the driver’s seat and handed it back to him.“Roy, thank you. Really.”Gavin looked up at that.Roy took the phone, gave Winter a quiet look, and typed something on the screen.“I’ll drive you home.”Winter had been about to turn him down. He had just fought off that many people and burned through so much energy. She didn’t want to take up more of his time.But then she thought better of it. This was the perfect chance to ask why he had been upset with her. If it really was her fault, she would apologi

They gradually relaxed.“You’ve got to admit, the Xander family’s hospital is really something.”“Yeah. I’m still kind of shocked they put us in a room this nice.”One of her coworkers took a bite of the breakfast Winter had brought and said, “The Xanders have always been generous. Remember that time we went with Winter to cover the charity auction at Windham Gardens, and we stopped Mr. Xander halfway through?”“Oh, right.” The other coworker slapped his hand against the bed. “You saying that just reminded me. I almost forgot to tell Winter.”He turned to her and said, “You have no idea how huge the bonus Mr. Gavin gave us that night. It was basically the size of my year-end bonus. Actually, you probably got one too, right?”Winter turned to pour them some water and gave a flat little “Mm.”She hadn’t gotten a bonus. Instead, she had been offered a sapphire brooch worth over a hundred million at auction, and she had turned it down.She didn’t say yes or no, so her coworkers ass

“Quit trying to scare me. If the elevator suddenly drops while you’re holding me like this, we’re both dead.”Maybe she imagined it, but after she said that, she thought she heard Chris laugh very softly.“Fine by me.”“What?”Her head was pressed against his chest. In one ear, all she could hear was his heartbeat. The hearing in the other still hadn’t fully recovered, so everything sounded slightly muffled.But before she could hear what he meant, the hand at the back of her head suddenly tightened.The elevator, which had paused at the fifteenth floor, suddenly dropped.Chris turned fast, bracing the back of his head and his back against the elevator wall.He lifted Winter off the floor and held her against his bent thigh, one strong arm protecting the back of her head and neck.“Chris Xander, you jinxed it!” Winter’s face went white with fear. In her panic, her body reacted on instinct, pressing tightly against him.Then she felt something warm and soft brush against her f

In the elevator, she had accidentally spotted her press badge sticking out of Chris’s coat pocket.She had clearly taken it while he wasn’t paying attention, and she was certain he hadn’t noticed a thing.So how had the badge she slipped into her own pocket disappeared again?“Ms. Scott, what are you looking for?” Zion asked, following beside her.Winter looked utterly defeated. She didn’t even need to think about it. Chris had obviously taken it back again.Whatever. She had already been planning to replace it anyway. She had only tried to grab it back because she happened to see it in the elevator.“Nothing. Let’s go.”Outside the ophthalmology department, Chris pulled a blue press badge from his coat pocket, the corner of his mouth lifting slightly.He went in for an eye exam every month.After the doctor finished checking his eyes, he asked, “Have you been working a lot of overtime lately?”Chris gave a quiet hum.“I’ve already told you to get more rest. Bloodshot eyes a
