Chapter 141 Get out of my sight!

Elly understood why the bartender called her Mrs. Hargreaves. But she insisted on explaining it. "He made it himself."

The bartender watched Alex faint on the chair after drinking and guessed that the two love birds might be angry with each other, so Elly refused to admit the relationship. The bartender who nodded understood this. "If you're not his wife or a lover, should I ask for someone else to pick him up?"

"No, I can do it myself."

Elly refused the kindness of the bartender. She directly helped Alex to sit up, she put his hand on her shoulder, and let him lean on her.

'It's a good thing I'm not wearing high heels.' Elly muttered to herself and whispered that the food Alex ate was too heavy. They walked slowly out of the bar, the street lights outside were very dim, and what came into view was the alley in front of them.

She was able to get a taxi and asked the driver to park outside and wait for her to bring someone out. The bar was not on the main road. Alex was lying in the depths of the alley, as he thought about the next journey. Elly pulled Alex and went to the wrong way.

At the corner to the end of the road, they were blocked by two strangers.

"Beauty, can I help you?"

As she looked at those abominable smile and lewd eyes, Elly saw that Alex was about to throw up and bowed his head and did not pay attention. She helped Alex walked around them, but a quick man blocked them.

"Beauty, don't be so snub. It's not good at you to ignore a good man who wants to help". The guy was giggling as he deliberately said the tricks.

"No! No." Elly shouted impolitely and cursed coldly. "Go back! Don't come near me!"

She was a woman with unconscious yeast on her shoulder. In the face of two native-born men, she had no chance of winning at all. She was scared, she bit her teeth.

"Let me help you get rid of this drunk." The man touched Alex's hand and tried to pull him out for convenience.

Elly was like a fierce kitten. She held his hand and held Alex's back. As she retreated hurriedly, Alex's back slammed against the wall and he muttered a painful cursed.

"You don't have time to check if he's awake and feel his head hit on your shoulder." Said by the man and was still encouraging her.

With her hands behind his back, she shouted as she tried to stay calm." What are you going to do? I don't need your help. I can do it myself."

The tiny appearance of Elly protected a tall man, Elly's face was ferocious and her eyes were bright and strong, which was moving at the moment. The two thugs licked their mouths and were salivating.

"Well, I like strong girls like you. It's time to cry and beg, you're looking very sexy." A man laughed so hard that he reached out and made a joke.

Elly wriggled her head and shook off his hand. She moved abruptly and slid Alex off her body. Without time to think, she turned quickly and put her hand under his armpit to lifted him up. At that moment, Elly's hair was grabbed and pulled back, which resulted for Alex to fall on the ground. She shouted because of pain, the man bent down and held Alex instinctively.

"Bitch! Do you want to die?" The man was pulling her hair and was startled then he tried to grab her shoulder with the other hand, but he was locked in mid-air, only a few inches from Elly.

Elly didn't understand anything yet, but the grip on her hair was loosen, and her body stood upright and the man left her to one side.

Alex, who was so drunk, stood up straight that he had to walk near Elly. He stood upright, he was spraining the thug's hand with his one hand and the other was massaging his forehead. His image was both scary and charming.

Elly flushed so red that she bumped against the wall with pain in her shoulder and stood up straight.

The man interrupted Alex, he shouted in pain and was about to throw a punch with the other hand, but Alex's fist was faster. Alex's punch hit the man in the middle of his nose, he was still clenching his wrist, and he stealthily stepped on the rib of another arrow.

The man fell to the ground shortly after that. Alex did not care and continued to step on the knee with his broken hand, which caused his other knee to fall to the ground. Alex pinched the man's cheeks and dislocated his jaw. The man's scream of pain resounded through the street.

Elly witnessed for the first time of how Alex became bloodthirsty and ferocious, his teeth were colliding with each other. She was trembling as she watched the scene, it was like the standard and vicious movements in the film.

Alex stood up straight and knelt at his feet in front of the one who broke his wrist. The thug has just been kicked to the ground, he got up and pulled out his knife and pointed it to Alex. "Do you want to die, asshole?"

To answer the man's cruel question, Alex broke his wrist and made the man scream at the top of his lungs.

"You want to be like me, can you try it?"

The challenged thug was insulted. His eyes were red and his hands clenched the knife that tried to pierce his stomach. Alex turned slightly, loosened his wrist and elbowed the other man at the back. "No, no."

The knife fired far away and kicked by Elly's foot. She let out a panic-stricken cry.

Alex was distracted by her scream. He turned to look at her and wanted to know why they were there.

Elly pressed her back against the wall and did not know what to say in the eyes of the black hawk.

As he watched her for a few seconds, Alex went back to the heads of the two thugs. He kicked the head of the nearest thug that he saw, and let him roll his head on the ground. Alex broke the man's arm and hurried over to pull his partner's clothes back.

"Man, I'm sorry. We're sorry. You cut us some slack, and we experienced it helplessly. Boss, please spare us." The pale faced man was begging with his wrist still in pain, he bursted into tears, as he knelt on his head, and spoke wildly.

Alex looked down from above, he was gazing coldly word for word. "This woman is my fiance, and if you touch her finger again, you will pay more than an arm."

"Well, yes, I remember." In the face of Alex it was a reminder, the man dared to refuse.

Alex frowned and his face was covered with dirty snot and he shouted.

"You don't have to mention it again!" The two fractured man left. With the other partner who was holding the man soaked with his own blood and his weakened body. When they passed to Elly, they bowed their head and said their apology respectfully. "Sorry! I'm sorry, ma'am!"

It happened so fast that Elly was almost passive in the whole process. After the mob apologized, her fear disappeared.

She couldn't take her eyes off the approach; her mind was full of questions. She was stunned. Suddenly Alex asked her. "Did the waiter have to ask you to take me home? You don't have enough strength, but you did support me all the way from the bar to here?"

When Alex stood two steps away from her, all the questions became problems. "Aren't you drunk?" She asked.

"Who says I'm drunk?" The smell of his breath was the answer, it was smelled of wine and it made her frown.

His cold expression made her notice that she had been played, and her anger ignited, and she shouted in his face. "Bastard! You think this is funny? Its right to ask me to pick you up in the middle of the night, isn't it? You tricked me into coming here on purpose, didn't you? Have you ever thought about how I feel?"

A strange remark by Elly made him restless, not as depressed and upset as usual. He looked at her ferociously and pointed directly to the way. "All right, you can go now! I didn't asked you to pick me up. Who makes you feel responsible to leave home in the middle of the night? I don't need your pity. Get out of my sight!"

His cold words made her regret to fetch him. She stared at him breathlessly, turned around without saying a word.

After five steps, the anger in her heart had reached the top of her head, and she turned and walked covetously in front of him, she was pushing him violently so that Alex staggered back and turned his back against the wall.

Elly put her face same height on Alex nose, they were staring at each other, seconds later she turned away hesitantly.

However, as soon as she took a few steps, she heard a rumble behind her. Her heart suddenly began to beat faster, and Elly almost unconsciously turned around.

Alex sat on the ground while his back leaned against the wall. He looked up for a second, then he twisted his head that it made a crack sound. He felt sleepy, after a few second his head dropped.

Elly ran back in panic and shook him. "Hey! Alex! Wake up. Don't scare me. You're pretending to be drunk again, don't you? I give up okay. Will you stop pretending?" She asked him and her voice was trembling.

Alex body shook with Elly's push, her trembling hands lifted his face, and she twitched when she felt the heat in his face. She pressed her hand on his forehead and guessed that he had a fever.

"Hey, hey." Elly was still shaking Alex's body. She grabbed his collar and slapped Alex several times. "Are you awake? Don't scare me. Why does a drunken man have a fever?"

The side of Alex's face was flushed by her, and there was a breath in his mouth that abolished Elly's doubt that he was pretending to be unconscious. He was out of breath and drew a breath from his throat, that Elly no longer doubted whether he had fainted or not.

She stretched her arm over his shoulder, she bent down and held his armpit. She was holding him while she dragged Alex into the street. Fortunately, the kind-hearted taxi driver parked his car and waited for them. With the help of the driver, Alex was stuffed into the back row.

"Thank you, thank you!" Elly thanked the driver repeatedly for his kindness and has adjusted Alex's sitting position to make him sit up straight. "Sir, please take us to the hospital.."

On their way, after Alex was smashed to get into the car, Elly pressed Alex against her shoulder. As she looked at Alex who was still asleep, she couldn't help but think about the scene in the alley.

She didn't admit on hitting people, and it was brave of him to save her from those thugs just in time. Even if he had a fever and was in unstable state, he foolishly stood up to protect her, so it was worth being a hero.

Alex was quickly taken to hospital, and after examination, the doctor confirmed that he had no other symptoms except for a fever.

"What happened to your friend? How come that he has a fever and is still drinking. Do you know how dangerous it is?" The doctor scolded Elly carelessly.

Elly did not argue and nodded. "Well, he's fine. I'll pay him more attention the next days."

"Okay, we already moved him to the private room. Because he had alcohol intake, we didn't give him an infusion to treat his fever. Our hospital will be providing the patient with proper care, that there's no need for infusion." The doctor was satisfied with Elly's gentle attitude and told her in a low voice to come back for another examination the next morning.

Elly felt guilty and grateful, she did not call Secretary Gerald and took care of Alex herself all night.

As the doctor's instructions, she got him a cold towel on his forehead. She wiped his sweat and took his temperature. She also wiped his hands and feet, and she was afraid that he would be dehydrated, so she tried to put water into his mouth and soaked his lips with wet cotton wool. Elly did all those things subconsciously.

When Alex's fever relieved, she breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly found herself doing things she doesn't usually do.

Alex stroked her pink cheeks and he thanked her because she had taken such good care of him, in return for rescuing her from the two thugs. Elly was still frightened at the thought of the possible consequences of two thugs harassing her.

It was hard to sleep over all night. Elly was also exhausted. Over time, he laid directly in the hospital bed and fell asleep. In his dream, the scene of the hero saving the beauty kept coming into his view, it made him unable to sleep.

Alex woke up the next morning. The first picture that hit him in the eye was Elly, she was breathing sideways, and was sleeping next to him.

Her eyes were closed, her mouth slightly open, and there was clean water beside the bed. At the corner of the bed, Elly was asleep and her face made Alex wonder if it was a dream or not? 'Did Elly sleep next to him?' He asked through his mind.
