Chapter 722 I'm Going to Push My Luck. Try to Bite Me

As it turned out, Young Master Wesley, who was a devil of creating chaos, was really good at irritating people.

When he finished his words, Gavin's face was more than gloomy, but also almost as black as charcoal.

"A passionate hug..."

These three words generated a flame, burning Gavin's eardrums fiercely, almost turning into a fury running from the bottom of his heart.

Connell and Wendy were not really in a relationship, and additionally, they had already "broken up". They were just ordinary friends and didn't need such an intimate hug.

Besides, it seemed that Wendy had taken the initiative!

"Bang, bang-"

Gavin seemed to casually throw the lunchbox on the table, but the sound of the collision of the lunchbox and the table revealed his unconcealable anger.

"Puff-"

Wendy couldn't help laughing.

This was the first time that she had felt Gavin's anger. He was really being angry.

Well, that's because he was jealous, right?

She should appreciate Gavin's current appearance. After all, it was rare to see that once every millennium!

Thinking of this, Wendy's eyes seemed to be glued to Gavin. She couldn't even bear to blink her eyes, let alone look away.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"

Connell coughed hard, trying to warn Wendy that her gaze was too hot.

However, Wendy did not understand Connell's good intention at all. Instead, she pushed him and said, "Be quiet."

While speaking, Wendy's eyes were still fixed on Gavin, and there was a bright smile (her infatuation for him) in her bright almond-shaped eyes. She wore a look of mischievousness and brightness that could attract men's attention.

Connell couldn't help stroking his forehead. Alas, he was not hopeful about Wendy.

His efforts and good intentions were in vain!

Young Master Wesley was distressed, and Gavin was not in a good mood.

From Gavin's point of view, Connell and Wendy seemed to have a very tacit understanding.

Their "love" might be fake, but their friendship was definitely not fake!

Connell appeared to be a playboy who was short of ambition, but as a member of the senior management of Clark Enterprise, it was impossible that he was as simple and harmless as he appeared.

In other words, Connell must be scheming. If he really liked Wendy and was bent on pursuing her, it would be hard to guarantee that she would not be tricked in the future.

Or probably, Wendy had already been tricked.

Wendy noticed that there was something wrong with Gavin's expression. She nudged Connell and said, "It's time for you to go, buddy." Her voice was so low that only herself and Connell could hear it.

Young Master Wesley was furious and scolded her unhappily, "Forget your friends when you're in love with a man!"

"Well," Wendy tilted her head and said with a smile at Connell, "I'll make it up to you next time."

"That sounds OK," Young Master Wesley said proudly before getting up to leave.

In fact, Young Master Wesley regretted it-why did he tell Wendy the truth? Why was he so kind?

"Sometimes bad things happen to such a good person as me!"

After Connell left, only Gavin and Wendy were left in the ward.

When Jack went through the transfer procedure, he specifically told the head nurse that Joanne's cousin would be moving in. The head nurse specially asked someone to place the white roses that Wendy liked in the ward.

A faint fragrance of flowers lingered in the ward, and Wendy's smile was more brilliant than the freshly picked roses.

Gavin narrowed his eyes. "Are you so happy when Connell comes to see you?"

"Yeah!" Wendy held her chin with one hand and looked at Gavin with a smile. "But I am happier when you come!"

Gavin was more or less pleased with her last sentence, and his face was not as gloomy as before.

Suddenly, Wendy asked, "Gavin, are you jealous?"

Gavin subconsciously wanted to deny it, but he was interrupted by Wendy before he could open his mouth. "If you're not jealous, why were you angry just now?"

"It's I who should ask you first," Gavin said in a cold voice, "since you and Connell are just fake lovers, is it necessary for you to be so intimate with each other?"

"Well, it was you who took the initiative to ask this question." Wendy lowered her hand calmly and put on a look of anger in a flash. "Aren't you more intimate with Blake?"

"..."

Gavin was speechless for a while, and it took a long time for him to realize that Wendy might have done it on purpose.

If he didn't deny it, Wendy would take this opportunity to insist that he was also in a fake relationship with Blake.

Gavin narrowed his eyes and emphasized, "We're in different situations. Is there anything wrong with me being more intimate with Blake?"

Wendy was slightly disappointed. Gavin's denial was equivalent to denying that his relationship with Blake was fake.

Was it because Gavin reacted too fast, or was it because Connell's news was false?

She weighed the pros and cons and chose to believe the latter.

First, Gavin was so smart. If she wanted to trap him, she might need to practice for a few lifetimes. On the contrary, it was not strange for Gavin to realize that there was a trap in her words.

Second, Connell heard the news from Freya. Even if she suspected Connell, she absolutely believed Freya.

"Humph!"

It didn't matter if Gavin denied it. There was still time, and she had enough time to prove that Gavin was lying!

After thinking about it positively, Wendy's answer was much more straightforward. "No!"

Gavin had thought that Wendy would pester him endlessly, but she did not seem to go on with this topic.

"Does she have other plans? Or... she doesn't care at all?"

Gavin found it unpleasant that no matter which one it was, he was not pleased.

"You haven't answered my question." Gavin warned her in a cold voice.

Wendy answered with an "oh" and then seemed to remember something. She smiled and said, "Connell brought me a piece of good news, so I was a little excited."

Gavin frowned and asked, "What's the good news?"

Wendy smiled even more brilliantly, but she did not answer. Instead, she asked, "What did you bring me?"

"Your lunch."

Gavin placed the small dining table in front of Wendy and put the rice, dishes, and soup he brought on the table, including meat and nutritious vegetables to help with the recovery of Wendy's fractures.

Before Wendy could say anything, Gavin ordered, "Eat it all up."

There were three dishes and one soup in sufficient quantity. He wanted Wendy to eat up all of it.

Wendy's joy was instantly and completely gone, and she said with a bitter look, "Too much..."

"You have to eat it all." Gavin handed a spoon to Wendy. "Take it."

Wendy thought about it, smiled, and said, "If you feed me, I'll eat all of it."

"Wendy..."

There was a hint of warning in Gavin's tone, but Wendy was not afraid at all. She snorted and said calmly and frankly, "I'm pushing my luck. What can you do to me?"

"..."

Gavin was at a loss for words.

Wendy's hands and feet were broken, so he indeed couldn't do anything to her.

Gavin found what was even more frightening was when he couldn't do anything to Wendy, he would habitually compromise with her.

For example, now, instead of forcefully giving the spoon to Wendy, he fed her half a spoonful of rice.

Because her shameless request was met, Wendy smiled like a flower. She opened her mouth, chewed the food hard, and swallowed, saying, "I want to drink the soup."

The pork chop soup was still scalding hot, and Gavin blew on it before carefully feeding it to Wendy.

Wendy deeply felt that this was the best soup she had ever had, even better than the soup that Joanne had personally cooked for her for half a day!

Perhaps because of her upbringing, Wendy was an easily satisfied girl.

At this moment, the light at the bottom of her eyes could almost shine into Gavin's heart, and her bright eyes were shining with a sparkling smile. There was nowhere to hide her satisfaction and happiness.

Gavin felt helpless, but at the same time, he couldn't help being softhearted.

If it weren't for the blood relationship, he was willing to let Wendy be satisfied and happy like this forever.

But among the billions of people on Earth, there were always some people who couldn't fulfill their dreams. Unfortunately, he was one of them.

The happiness right before her made Wendy have no time to care about the future. She asked while eating, "Gavin, who made all of this? Was it you? That's impossible! You can't even cook eggs, just like me. Well, did you specially ask someone to cook it?"

Gavin stuffed a piece of cabbage into her mouth. "Why can't you shut up when you're eating the food?"

Wendy chewed the food and swallowed the cabbage. "You did specially ask someone to cook it!"

Indeed, Gavin asked the chef from his favorite restaurant to cook these dishes according to Wendy's current injury.

However, there was no need for her to know that.

Gavin did not answer. He fed Wendy a slice of cuttlefish that she needed to chew hard, and finally made her be silent.

At the same time, Freya came back after lunch with some takeout in her hand for Wendy.

Young Master Wesley left in great anger and did not have time to close the door for Wendy. Freya happened to see Gavin through the crack in the door.

The main point was that Gavin was feeding Wendy.

Freya looked at the food in her own hand and felt that both she and the food were not needed. She immediately turned around and took the food to the nearby park to feed the wandering animals.

Wendy was very full. Looking at the leftovers in the lunch box, she shook her head. "Gavin, let alone that you're feeding me, even if you say you love me once every time you feed me a spoonful of food, I couldn't eat another bite."

"..." Gavin looked at Wendy speechlessly for a while, and then put away the lunchbox. "I'm going back to the company."

"Wait a minute." Wendy grabbed Gavin's hand. "Will you come tonight?"

Gavin replied without hesitation, "No."

Wendy chewed on her lip and looked at him innocently. "Are you willing to leave me here alone?"

Gavin knew that Wendy did it on purpose, so he ignored her and put down a brand new cell phone for her. "Your former cell phone doesn't work. You can use this now. Your number is the same as before, and I've also restored your contacts."

Wendy answered with an "oh" and said calmly, "If you don't come tonight, I will contact you."

Gavin said coldly, "My number is not in the contacts."

Wendy raised the corner of her mouth, and her smile was more brilliant than the sunlight. "I remember your number, 136 XXXX XXXX..."

"..." Gavin was expressionless and hopeless.

In a good mood, Wendy waved at Gavin and said, "Just go. See you tonight."

Gavin left in a bad mood.

Wendy turned on her new cell phone, logged in to her account, and restored some of the previous information. Then she leisurely entered Gavin's information in the contacts, but the system informed her that it had been already recorded there.

Gavin clearly put his number in the phone. Why did he lie to her?

What a tsundere he was!
