James actually answered yes.
Since James had already answered, it would be inappropriate if she said that she wouldn't let James come over. After thinking for a while, Nell could only watch helplessly as James left his ward after agreeing.
After James left and Nell confirmed that James should have reached a long enough distance and could not hear her, Nell spoke to Audrey.
"I'm telling you. Audrey, in a while, just call Mr. Walker and tell him that I can take care of myself. He doesn't need to come over to take care."
Audrey looked at Nell suspiciously.
"You don't need him to take care of you? How can that be? Don't forget that your legs are covered with plaster and it's inconvenient for you to move. It's absolutely impossible if no one takes care of you."
"You can ask your brother to come over!" Nell smiled and said, "Now it is on holiday, and he must be free. Let him come and take care of me. I will not make things difficult for him, and I can double his salary."
Audrey was at a loss what to say.
It was so obvious that Nell wanted to get close to Harold.
In fact, this evening, Harold went to eat and called Audrey. He told her that he was in the Internet cafe in the afternoon and did not hear her phone call. Then, Audrey told Harold about Nell's hospitalization. She also mentioned that she called him in the afternoon to ask him to take care of Nell.
When Harold heard that Audrey had called him in the afternoon to ask him to take care of Nell, he rejoiced that he had not received her call in the afternoon.
Every time Nell saw him, she would show such an expression like a wolf seeing food, which made Harold afraid. Therefore, he did not want to take care of Nell alone, trying to avoid being bothered by her.
Although Harold's words were a little exaggerated, Nell's reaction every time she saw Harold was indeed... a little exaggerated as well.
Besides, Harold was afraid of Nell, even Audrey felt that if Harold went to take care of Nell, Nell would definitely have her own motives.
However, in front of Nell, it was impossible for Audrey to reveal her thoughts.
"Well, these two days, Quentin said that his school organized him and other students to go out to study. You also know that..." Audrey explained, "Now that Quentin has become the Minister of Research in their school's student union, he has to go as well. Therefore, it is impossible for him to come and take care of you."
Nell immediately got so disappointed.
Nell's parents would only be back in at least two days. Nataly and her friend would only be back on the last day of the holiday. Grady's phone call could not get through at all. Now, Audrey's teacher had come to Peace City. Therefore, only James could take care of her.
Nell really felt that she was the most unfortunate person in this world.
She hugged her head with both hands. "Oh my god, why am I so unlucky? Why did the car accident happen at this time?"
In the face of Nell's complaints, Audrey could only look at her with sympathy.
"Nell, just bear with it. My teacher will be leaving the city in two days."
"What?" Nell widened her eyes and looked at Audrey in horror. "You said that your teacher will leave Peace City in two days? Could it be... that I have to see James in the next two days?"
Audrey frowned. "In fact, I think Mr. Walker is polite and gentle. He is a good man. Besides, don't you like to see handsome men? Mr. Walker is also very handsome!"
After saying this, Audrey felt a cold air coming from her back.
At this time, Audrey finally realized that Bryson was still standing behind her, but she actually praised other men. Thinking of this, Audrey became so nervous.
She swallowed her saliva with difficulty and said, "Well, although he is quite handsome, he is not as handsome as my Bryson."
Nell rolled her eyes at Audrey.
She didn't expect Audrey to be actually so afraid of Bryson.
Audrey forced a smile, not looking into Nell's eyes.
She would never admit that she was afraid of Bryson.
"Yes, I admit that he is a little handsome, but so what? Every time I see James, I feel that his face is gloomy." Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
"How could it be? Mr. Walker is very friendly to people and always smiles gently. How could he be gloomy? Is it your illusion?"
Nell shook her head.
"He looked very gentle and kind. However, I always felt that his smile was a bit horrible. I couldn't describe it." Nell shivered as she spoke. "I don't like him anyway, and I don't want to be in the same room with him."
"Maybe you're just thinking too much."
"Maybe I'm thinking too much. However, my intuition is always very accurate. James is obviously a hypocrite who thinks in one way and behaves in another."
Just as Nell finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared at the door of the ward. The moment he appeared, it was precisely when Nell said that James was a hypocrite.
When James stood at the door, he paused in his steps and stared at Nell with his gentle eyes.
Nell's expression suddenly changed, and she almost instantly froze.
She hadn't expected that James would suddenly appear at the door of her ward again. Hadn't he already left? Why did he come back?
At this second, Nell was really too embarrassed to say anything.
Audrey noticed that Nell's expression had suddenly changed and looked so scared. This caused Audrey to turn around suspiciously.
When she turned around, she saw James. It was also at this moment that Audrey suddenly understood why Nell had this expression.
It turned out that James had returned. James had probably heard what Nell had just said.
Bryson saw James and asked, "Why are you back?"
James walked into the ward and picked up a pen from the sofa. "I forgot to take my pen, so I came back to take my pen."
Nell grabbed Audrey with both hands and used Audrey's body by her side to block James's gaze so that James would not be able to see her.
Nell thought that James would leave after he got his pen.
Nell then heard the footsteps of James leaving the ward.
She thought excitedly in her heart, perhaps... James had not heard her words just now. Now that he had left with a pen, she was out of danger.
However, James's footsteps suddenly stopped after he took a few steps.
Nell frowned.
Why did he stop again? Did he stop or had he already walked away?
As Nell thought this in her heart, James's gentle voice rang out in the ward. "I didn't expect that I would actually be such a bad man in Ms. Nell's heart."
