Chapter 345
Adam glanced at Benjamin. “Get some rest for now. We’ll discuss everything tomorrow,”
Both Celine and Benjamin needed time to recover before any further discussions.
With Adam present, Benjamin felt a sense of reassurance. He nodded. “Alright.”
Adam carried Celine out Cassidy, who had been waiting outside, hurried forward “Adam, is your sister alright?”
“My sister has a high fever. Ms. Cassidy, could you help us by arranging a room?
Faced with Adam’s noble and striking appearance, Cassidy, who admired handsome men, couldn’t refuse. She immediately used her position as the village chief’s daughter to secure a clean room for him.
Adan gently laid Celine on the bed. Her entire body was cold, and sweat dampened her forehead, Soft strands of hair clung to her pale skin, emphasizing her fragility
Adam reached out and carefully brushed her bags aside,
“Adam?” Cassidy’s voice broke the silence.
Only then did Adam remember that she was still in the room. He straightened and asked, “Ms. Cassidy, do you have a brother?”
Cassidy nodded. “Yes, my brother is Wyatt Lawson. He’s of marriageable age. Any woman in the village would marry him in a heartbeat, but he has high standards and hasn’t found anyone he likes.”
Adam’s lips curved into a cold, faint smile. Wyatt’s standards were indeed high. After all, he had chosen Celine. But how many Celine were there in the
world?
Cassidy’s gaze softened as she looked at Adam. “I’m of marriageable age too, but I don’t like any of the men here. My father keeps pressuring me to marry, Adam, what do you think I should do?”
Her intentions were obvious. Ironically, both siblings, Wyatt and Cassidy, had set their sights on Celine and Adam, respectively.
“Ms. Cassidy, I’ll be meeting with the village chief tomorrow.
“Really?” Cassidy’s eyes lit up
She thought Adam had understood her hints and intended to propose to her father.
Adam knew exactly what she meant. Her intentions were transparent, but he didn’t expose her. Instead, he said, “My sister and I need to rest. Ms. Cassidy, could you please leave us for now?”
Cassidy left cheerfully and even closed the door behind her.
However, as soon
as soon as she stepped outside, a sudden thought struck her. There was only one bed in that room. How would they manage? Were they going to share it?
Inside the room, silence settled once more.
Celine shavered violently. “So cold. I’m so cold…
Adam raised his hand and unbuttoned his coat, slipping off the heavy black outer layer before sliding under the blanket.
Celine instinctively sensed the warmth approaching and shifted over, curling up against him like a small, trembling bird.
Adam reached out and wrapped his arms around her. Given the crude conditions, sharing body heat was the only way to keep warm,
Her fragile frame pressed against him, sending a wave of tension through his body. It had been so long since he had held her like this
Since their divorce, the distance between them ad grown. They had become strangers. But on sleepless nights, his mind had often drifted back to her.
Still stavering, Celine burrowed closer as her small hand slipped under his shirt through the open collar, seeking warmth.
uscular, his defined abs radiating heat like a furnace.
Adan lelt her hand moving across his skin. She was too hasty. A falist pop sounded as one of his shirt buttons snapped off.
His Adam’s apple Bobbed as he swallowed. He gently pressed down on her small hand. “Celine, slow down. I don’t have a spare shirt here,”
