Chapter 399 Whatever You Want
Thomas left a phone number for Yuliana, which was a teacher in their unit. His name was Liam Evans.
Liam, who Yuliana met yesterday, was quite young and should have worked for only a few years. Thomas asked Yuliana to contact Liam if she needed anything.
After Thomas left. Yuliana sat in the cafe for a moment.
Several people were sitting at two or three tables away from her. They were two men and two women, wearing quick-drying windbreakers, sweatpants, and mountaineering shoes. They should be tourists that came to Lofbury.
At this time, the four of them were drinking coffee and chatting. They were talking about what had happened last night.
However, they didn’t dare to talk too loudly so their voice was low. Fortunately, Yuliana could vaguely hear them because there were only a few people in the cafe.
“It’s the first time in so many years of traveling that I’ve seen police all over the street,” said a man.
Yuliana glanced at him. He seemed to be in his thirties.
The woman next to him said, “I was woken up by the noise outside last night. When I looked outside the window, it made me wide awake. It was as if I’m watching a movie.”
The woman’s expression was vivid, which made the people next to her laugh.
Another handsome and gentle-looking man continued the topic. “I heard from the hostel owner this morning that the thieves’ leader had been arrested and lots of contraband had been seized. If it went to
the market, I don’t know how many people and families would be affected and harmed.”
The previous woman sighed. “Yeah! However, it’s not surprising because Lofbury is close to the border, and the drug dealers in this area are indeed more active than in other places. I’ve always heard that this town is like a land of idyllic beauty, but if the news of what happened last night is spread, I guess many people won’t come here in the future.”
The town was called Lofbury because it was a basin in the middle of Mount Lofbury. It was surrounded by mountains. To come over from Druobridge, one must go over a mountain. On the other side was a higher and more steep mountain range.
That mountain was Mount Lofbury, and the Southeast Region was behind it.
Yuliana finished her coffee before returning to the hotel.
Back in the room, Christopher was already awake. He was lying on the bed while holding his phone in his hand. He was also tapping on the phone screen repeatedly.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, he immediately looked at the door vigilantly. However, seeing that it was Yuliana, he slowly relaxed.
Yuliana said calmly, “You’re awake.”
Yuliana put the things she brought on the table.
Christopher nodded and stared at her. “Where have you been?”
Yuliana replied, “I went out to meet someone. Are you feeling better now?”
Christopher put down his phone and said in a pitiful tone, “No, my wound still hurts.”
Yuliana ignored him and took out the things she had brought.
She bought some drinking water and some emergency food, just in case.
.
Seeing that she ignored him, Christopher asked, “Who helped me to deal with my wound?”
He didn’t underestimate Yuliana’s ability, but he could feel that the wound on his back was treated professionally. Although it was not as professional as a doctor from a hospital, it was simple and effective like the person had dealt with such injuries many tirnes.
Yuliana paused and looked at Christopher She then pursed her lips and said, “Can’t you be quiet?”
Christopher supported his hand on the bed and tried to move his body, but when he moved a little, his wound hurt.
He snorted with anger. “Mmm
Seeing this, Yuliana immediately threw away the things in her hand. She walked to the bedside and looked at his wound Blood beads were oozing out.
Her face suddenly darkened. She pressed his other shoulder and said in anger, “What are you doing? Don’t you know how much you’re hurt?”
Christopher said innocently. “My body feels numb, so I just want to change my position.”
Yuliana looked at him silently for two seconds. “What position do you want to change into?”
Christopher thought for a while and said, “I want to sit up.”
He had been lying on his stomach all the time, so his whole body stiffened quickly. After waking up, he moved slightly to move his limbs, but this posture made his head tilt to one side. It made him quite troublesome to rotate his body.
“Slow down. I’ll help you get up. Don’t push hard on the area of your wound.”
Yuliana was afraid that Christopher’s wound would tear open, and it would bleed heavily like last night. She didn’t even want to recall the scene last night.
Yuliana carefully helped Christopher up. The blood on the sheet had dried up, which was particularly eye-catching. However, she couldn’t let the hotel staff change it.
She thought for a while and said to Christopher, “You can sit on the chair for a while.”
Christopher sat down obediently on the chair, while Yuliana opened the suitcase and took out a bag of things. After unpacking, she found that it was a disposable bedsheet cover.
Christopher watched as Yuliana quickly changed the blood-stained hotel bedsheet, put the disposable bedsheet cover on it, and then helped him back to the bed.
After sitting down, Yuliana breathed a sigh of relief. She couldn’t see the dazzling red color on the bed anymore, so she felt refreshed and comfortable.
She checked the time, and it was five o’clock.
When she was about to ask Christopher if he was hungry and what he wanted to eat, she saw Christopher staring at her.
She looked at him in a daze, as if she had been frozen for a moment.
When she came back to her senses, she turned around and picked up the dirty sheets on the ground and put- them on an unused chair.
“Ana.”
Christopher suddenly called her.
Yuliana froze again as her back was facing him. The emotions on her face changed several times before finally calming down.
She turned to look at Christopher and said, “I hope you don’t call me that again. It will make me uncomfortable and troublesome.”
Christopher smiled. Then, what do you want me to call you? Ms. Livingstone, Yuliana, or Liana?” Those were normal names, but when he said them, they felt different to Yuliana.
Yuliana frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, she gave up and didn’t want to argue with him.
“Whatever you want.” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
After saying that, Yuliana took out her phone to send a message to Blake. She wanted to ask him to go out and bring back some light meals.
Christopher looked at her slender profile and asked, “Ana, do you remember what I said to you that night?”
Yuliana, who was sending a message to Blake, suddenly stopped typing.
“I regret it now.”
Yuliana didn’t respond to him immediately. She continued to type the message and sent it out. After that, she went to the chair and sat down. She turned on the computer to check today’s mail. However, as soon as the computer was turned on, she stopped again.
She wanted to say something, but she couldn’t get over it
She looked at him with cold eyes and asked, “Christopher, do you think it’s ridiculous that I was so worried about you last night?”
She sneered and leaned back against the chair. “It doesn’t matter. Just laugh if you think it’s ridiculous. because I think it’s ridiculous myself However, I don’t want myself to keep being this way.”
In recent years, she had been trying to remove Christopher from her life and forced herself not to think about anything related to him. After a long time, she thought that she had forgotten about it.
It was only until last night that she realized it was not what she had thought.
It was ridiculous.
