Chapter 393
Wanda gazed at Carlisle until her eyelids grew heavy. Soon, she fell asleep. The
medicine should have kicked in by now.
Carlisle took half an hour to suppress his desires, then he moved to sleep beside
Wanda.
Gareth was surfing the Internet in his suite and soon came across a post on the
Riverland forum.
The headline read, “Two Heroes of Riverland Engaged in a Gunfight“. He clicked into it and saw a few photos of entertainment venues being raided. A gang fight had
erupted between two factions.
Just then, Max came running from his bedroom with a cell phone in hand. “Mr. Spencer, something happened.”
“The matter between Titan and Jalen?”
“Yes, even your grandfather knows about it. This is the second large–scale fighting incident in Riverland this month. I think upper management might soon send someone over to rectify the order of Riverland.”
“Max, don’t you think something’s off? Jalen has washed his hands clean and is now working hard to clear his name. Won’t his efforts go down the drain after making such a big fuss this time?” Gareth leaned against the executive chair and pondered
in disbelief.
“It’s indeed strange, but that’s not our concern. We’d better focus on how to get back the money we lost in Scarlet Corporation,” Max said with a smile.
“You’re talking about an upward of 600 million dollars. It’s not easy to get back.”
Gareth laughed bitterly.
“We still have Carlisle. He seems to have some sort of magical power,” Max said.
“Let’s just go to bed. Make sure you check how Wanda is doing tomorrow. She needs
to get better if I’m to eat steak.
Wanda awoke at 4:00 am.
She wanted to go to the bathroom but didn’t dare go alone.
“Carlisle…” Wanda poked Carlisle’s nose.
“Are you having another nightmare?” Carlisle opened his eyes in a daze and held Wanda in his arms. He drawled sleepily, “Don’t worry, baby. I’m here with you…”
Wanda pouted and bit Carlisle’s nose.
Carlisle instantly woke up and looked at Wanda. “Wanda, you’re awake?”
He was very happy to see that Wanda looked healthy and was not as pale as yesterday. Max was truly an amazing doctor.
“Carlisle, go to the bathroom with me,” Wanda whispered.
“Okay. Wait, what?” Carlisle agreed without thought, but he came to his senses in the
next moment.
Did she want him to go to the bathroom with her? Was he going to watch her?
Wanda thought that Carlisle was disgusted with her. Her eyes instantly became teary as she pouted and was about to cry!
“Let’s go. Let’s go to the bathroom.” Carlisle immediately lifted the blanket, got up, and retrieved a pair of indoor slippers for Wanda.
Wanda put on the slippers and went to the bathroom with Carlisle.
However, the bathroom was locked and the light inside was switched on. Queenie was obviously already inside.
Carlisle knocked on the bathroom door and asked, “Are you done?”
Queenie was constipated. She gritted her teeth and replied, “Almost…”
Then she asked, “Is it you or Wanda who wants to use the bathroom?”
It it was Carlisle who had to go, she would ask him to wait. If It was Wanda, she could
hold it in.
“Wanda wants to use the bathroom,” Carlisle replied with his back facing the
bathroom door.
After another five minutes, Queenie flushed, turned on the ventilator, and left the
bathroom.
Looking displeased, Carlisle asked, “What took you so long? Are you suffering from
hemorrhoids?
Queenie glared at Carlisle and stuttered, “You… D–Don’t talk nonsense. You’re the one with hemorrhoids!” Then, she ran back to her room in embarrassment.
Carlisle smirked. “My guess was right.”
Wanda wordlessly entered the bathroom without closing the door.
Meanwhile, Carlisle stood at the door with his back to Wanda.
In the next moment, Carlisle heard a rustling sound behind him, followed by the sound of water flowing, sparking his imagination.
