Chapter 154: Chapter 154
Damian Quinn’s mesmerizing almond-shaped eyes were fixed intently on her, his tone tender. "Baby, he’s gone to Africa and won’t be back for a while."
Serena Everett blinked her eyes lightly; why did Assistant Sherman suddenly go to Africa?
Although puzzled, Serena didn’t press further and obediently nestled in his embrace, speaking casually.
"Ask Assistant Sherman to come back early; I’m still more used to him driving."
Hearing this reason, the coldness in Damian Quinn’s eyes dissipated instantly. His artistically defined hands landed on the girl’s abdomen, gently massaging it.
"Alright, I’ll have him come back tomorrow."
"Baby, how are you feeling now?"
Arthur Bowen’s medical skills were impressive, and the medicine he developed was beyond reproach. After Serena took the medicine, her stomach indeed hurt less, feeling much better than before.
"Much more comfortable, you can let Arthur Bowen go."
Serena guessed he had definitely caught Arthur Bowen to force him to make the medicine.
After all, Arthur Bowen was always proud and never willing to make such medicines except when showing humility to her.
"Heh." Damian Quinn chuckled hoarsely, his tone full of affection, "Kid, how did you know I caught Arthur Bowen and forced him to make the medicine?"
Serena glared at him with her extraordinarily beautiful fox-like eyes, "Don’t forget, you tried to do this to me before."
Before he knew she was The Phantom Hand, she refused his request, so he intended to catch her and lock her in The Black Vault, forcing her to accept his order.
Damian Quinn recalled this incident, knowing he was in the wrong, he massaged her abdomen even more gently.
"Brother will let him go in a bit."
"Mm." Serena nodded, although she hadn’t accepted Arthur Bowen as a disciple, he still called her master, naturally, she couldn’t just watch him locked up in The Black Vault.
"Kid, there’s half an hour left until we go to the restaurant, rest for a bit."
Damian Quinn’s voice was soft and soothing, as he looked at the girl whose sharp chin had become pointy due to her physiological cycle, the tenderness in his eyes was unmistakable.
It had been hard getting the girl to gain a bit of weight, and now it was all gone again.
Serena nodded obediently, but just as she was falling asleep in his embrace, an urgent phone ring sounded, abruptly waking her.
Seeing this, Damian Quinn frowned deeply and answered the call with displeasure, his deep magnetic voice full of impatience.
The Hidden Guard on the other end of the line was startled by Damian Quinn’s tone, paused for a moment before speaking.
"Master Damian, we’ve picked up Miss Crystal, but her condition isn’t good... We sent her to the hospital closest to the airport... but Miss Crystal’s situation is still not improving, could you come over?"
Damian Quinn’s brow furrowed tightly, "I understand."
Damian Quinn didn’t guard against her when answering the call, allowing Serena to hear the content clearly.
Serena curiously blinked her eyes; who was that? She had never heard of this name before.
After hanging up the phone, Damian Quinn’s expression was grim, yet remained gentle in front of her.
"Kid, brother needs to go to the hospital for a bit; shall I have Seth Sterling come over to accompany you for dinner?"
Thinking the little girl would be bored eating alone, Damian Quinn took out his phone intending to message Seth Sterling and ask him to come over.
But just as he took out his phone, Serena’s pale fingers grabbed his hand.
"No need to ask him to come; I’ll go with you." Serena tilted her head toward him, "I think you need me right now."
The person on the other end said her situation was very bad, and those doctors couldn’t treat her; therefore, only she could go.
Damian Quinn’s brows furrowed even more; his little friend’s medical skills were naturally the best, but he couldn’t bear for her to be unwell and still go to treat others.
Serena saw his thoughts, speaking gently, "Don’t worry, I’m alright."
Damian Quinn’s heart trembled, unable to control himself as he lowered his head and placed a kiss on the girl’s lips, "Baby, thank you." New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novel_fіre.net
Half an hour later, the car steadily stopped at the hospital entrance, the director had already been waiting at the door after receiving the news.
Seeing Damian Quinn get out of the car, the director immediately approached respectfully, but seeing a girl in his arms, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes in shock.
Rarely did anyone witness Master Damian, typically indifferent to women, act so intimately with a woman; the director couldn’t restrain his curiosity, leaning forward to see the girl’s appearance.
But before he could see clearly, Damian Quinn’s cold, piercing gaze swept over, startling the director into retracting his neck and without daring to glance around.
"Master Damian, Miss Crystal’s condition remains as it was before; it’s a chronic issue that we indeed can’t resolve..."
Damian Quinn’s voice was icy, carrying the girl in his arms as he strode into the hospital, attracting many glances.
Serena’s pale fingertips tugged at the man’s sleeve, disliking the attention.
She was just having her physiological cycle, not a broken leg.
Damian Quinn held her waist gently in reassurance, leaning down close to her, his warm breath brushing over her delicate earlobe, his deep magnetic voice teasingly provocative.
"Brother likes carrying my little friend."
