Chapter 77

Tom drove the car to the hospital as quickly as possible.

The director of the hospital led a group of experts to greet Valentin immediately. Then he saw Valentin anxiously getting out of the car with a woman in his arms.

Everyone recognized her at just one glance. The woman turned out to be Ashley, the female star who had been very popular on the Internet in the past two days.

Everyone was stunned for a second.

They thought, ‘How did Ashley, a female star, get involved with Mr. Kingsley? Moreover, the relationship between the two seems to be very close, and it looks like Mr. Kingsley cherishes Ashley very much.’

However, it only took them a second to recover from their initial shock. The director immediately stepped forward and said, “Mr. Kingsley, is this the lady who needs medical treatment? Mr. Shaw just told me about the general situation on the phone. Her condition is urgent. Let’s take this lady to the consultation room first.”

Valentin’s face was dark. “Okay.”

After entering the consultation room, Ashley was helped to lie on the hospital bed, and several experts conducted a joint consultation.

Tom wiped the sweat from his forehead and glanced at Valentin, who kept frowning. Obviously, Valentin was very worried about Ashley’s condition.

Those experts did not dare to delay and immediately checked Ashley’s condition.

After all, Valentin brought her there personally, so they didn’t dare to neglect her.

Observing red and swollen patches on Ashley’s exposed skin, several experts communicated in low voices, looked at Ashley, and asked, “Ms. Ramos, do you feel chest tightness or numbness in your limbs now?”

Ashley nodded. She felt tightness in her chest and even was short of breath.

The most senior expert said, “Ms. Ramos, you have a severe allergy. If it

it may lead to shock.”

gets worse, it may

Ashley thought, ‘Allergy? Shock?’

Ashley was startled. She was allergic to mangoes, but she didn’t touch them today.

The doctor immediately treated Ashley and checked her for allergens.

Hearing the word “shock”, Valentin frowned tighter, looking highly fearsome.

In the ward, Ashley sat on the hospital bed receiving an infusion. The sensation of chest tightness gradually lessened. “It turns out to be an allergy. I’ve inconvenienced so many experts by having them come to check on me…”

She felt quite embarrassed.

Tom’s heart was still fluttering with fear. “Ms. Ramos, the doctor just said that you might be in shock if your condition was more serious. Fortunately, we arrived in time.

“Moreover, Mr. Kingsley is very worried about your condition. Whether it is a serious or a minor illness, you cannot be careless!”

Tom finally figured out that even if Ashley just had an ordinary fever, Valentin would be highly nervous, let alone that she was severely allergic.

Hearing his words, Ashley glanced at Valentin beside her.

Just now, they didn’t know she was allergic. The skin on her b*dy was red and swollen, which looked so scary, but Valentin hugged her without any scruples and comforted her not to be afraid.

Ashley’s fingers curled up unconsciously, and her heart inexplicably throbbed.

Tom was very considerate and cleverly exited the ward, no longer being a third wheel there.

Ashley and Valentin were the only ones left in the ward.

Valentin sat down on the chair in front of the hospital bed and touched her head gently. “Are you still feeling terrible now?”

Ashley shook her head. The infusion had taken effect, and she wasn’t so uncomfortable anymore.

However, she still felt the red and swollen skin on her arms itchy and couldn’t help but want to scratch it.

Valentin held her down quickly, coaxing her, “Just endure and don’t touch it.”

Due to the illness, Ashley’s normally clear eyes were now moist, and a hint of redness appeared at the corners, giving her a somewhat delicate. appearance. “But it is really itchy. Let me scratch it just once. Please.”

Valentin pressed her hand and coaxed her patiently in a deep and gentle. voice, “Ashley, be good.”

Ashley really felt her arms itch and wanted to scratch them.

Valentin had no choice but to skillfully navigate around the infusion tube and gently pressed his fingers on the red and swollen patches on her arm. “Do you feel better?”

Ashley instantly felt less itchy and nodded comfortably.

Valentin pressed her arms gently and looked sideways at her. “Did you eat mangoes?”

Ashley immediately shook her head repeatedly. “No!”

She knew she was allergic to mangoes, so she couldn’t take the in ive to eat mangoes to court death.

Ashley was about to speak when she suddenly realized something asked curiously, “Do you still remember that I am allergic to mang thought you had forgotten it.”

Valentin glanced at her leisurely and said with indescribable emotions, “Of course, I remember everything related to you.”

Ashley was startled and blinked her eyes twice. “No wonder you still hold a grudge against me for biting you when I was a kid.”

Valentin was confused.

He thought, ‘Do I hold a grudge?”

Valentin almost laughed angrily and stared at her for a long time without saying a word.

Suddenly, he leaned over and moved closer to her face.

Ashley’s eyelids twitched, and she instinctively dodged backward.

However, she was sitting on the hospital bed, with the wall behind her head, unable to escape at all. She couldn’t help but hold her breath. “Why are you so close to me?”

Valentin stared at her, his gaze moving ambiguously down to her rosy l*ps.

Immediately afterward, he said in a deep and S**y voice, with a bit of teasing, “Since I hold a grudge against you, should I bite you as revenge?”

Ashley’s eyes widened in shock.

She thought, ‘Does he want to bite me?”

Suddenly, a cell phone ringtone interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere.

It was Ashley’s mobile phone ringing.

Ashley thought, ‘It is almost midnight. Who is calling me?’

Ashley took out her cell phone and looked at it. The caller ID was Kevin.

Valentin naturally saw that name. A sense of oppression overflowed from him, and his eyes showed a hint of coldness and gloominess.

Ashley took the opportunity to push him away. “I’ll answer a phone.”

After speaking, she swiped the screen to answer the call.

Kevin’s soothing voice came through the phone. “Ashley, I’m sorry to call you so late. I’d like to ask you a favor.”

Ashley asked in confusion, “What’s up? I’m in the hospital now, so I may be unable to help you.”

“Hospital?” Hearing that, Kevin quickly asked, “Are you sick? Why did you go to the hospital?”

Ashley said, “Allergy.”

Kevin said, “Allergy? What are you allergic to? Is it serious?”

Ashley glanced at the infusion bottle and answered briefly, “It’s not

serious. I feel much better.”

She felt more and more surprised that after so many years, Valentin still remembered that she was allergic to mangoes.

Kevin’s tone on the other end of the phone revealed a hint of “Which hospital are you in? I’ll visit you now.”

worry.

The ward was very quiet. Vaguely Hearing Kevin’s words, Valentin narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Ashley silently.

Ashley was so nervous when he looked at her that she couldn’t help but make eye contact to ask him, ‘What’s wrong?”

Valentin was sitting in front of the hospital bed. His hand was pressed. under her arm when he teased her just now.

He looked at his hand, which was pressed, and spoke without deliberately lowering his voice to ensure that the person on the other end of the phone could hear him.

“Baby, my hand is numb from your pressure.”

Ashley was stunned for a moment.
