Chapter 2320
“Understood.
Make sure to obtain the injury report,” Fletcher instructed before they parted ways.
“Sure.
” With Dulcie in his arms, Kyson walked away without looking back.
In the surveillance room, Phillis lingered, unable to tear her eyes away from the screen.
She watched Kyson’s actions unfold with a mixture of astonishment and trepidation.
From his forceful entrance to his gentle gesture of draping his coat over Dulcie and ultimately carrying her in his arms, Kyson’s behavior seemed to defy logic.
Phillis couldn’t shake the memory of his hand around her neck, the suffocating pressure still fresh in her mind.
Kyson’s apparent disinterest in Dulcie left Phillis questioning his motives.
He had stood idly by as Dulcie faced insults, only to intervene later out of fear that the situation would deteriorate further.
ALL of a sudden, he became her knight in shining armor, showing so much care and tenderness?
“He’s utterly deranged! I wonder what goes on inside that mind of his!” Phillis muttered to herself, her hand instinctively reaching for her neck, still aching from Kyson’s grip.
Despite her disdain for him, Phillis quickly realized the gravity of the situation and promptly reached out to her father for assistance.
“Dad, I’ve messed up again.
I… I need your help,” she confessed, her voice trembling with apprehension.
Late at night, as the luxury car drove down the road, Dulcie, who wore the suit jacket Kyson gave her, turned her head to look out the window at the night scenery.
She had given Kyson her address and he was driving her home.
But looking out of the window at the road signs, she realized that they weren’t on the road to her residence at all.
“Mr.
Shaw, where are you taking me?”
With one hand on the steering wheel, Kyson drove leisurely.
“To the hospital,” he said, staring expressionlessly at the road ahead.
“I’m really fine.
You don’t have to…” Dulcie began.
However, Kyson interrupted her almost immediately.
“You heard what Fletcher said.
You need to get a medical certificate for your injuries to bring the group of people who attacked you to justice.
How can you get that medical certificate if you don’t go to the hospital?”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“I just got very scared when they attacked me.
I really didn’t sustain any serious injury.
Since they gave the money, I think we should.
.
.
””
Before Dulcie could finish her words, Kyson interrupted her once again.
He said in a deep voice, “I wouldn’t let some scumbags hurt the woman I’m going to date.
Even if they failed in their attempt, I’ll still make them pay.
”
Dulcie stayed silent.
His deep and firm words moved her deeply and she felt a sense of warmth in her heart.
Having a boyfriend who protected her made her feel so good.
“Thank you,” Dulcie said after a while.
Still focused on the road ahead, Kyson said in a calm tone, “Anyway, I’ll take care of these things.
You don’t have to worry about them.
Sleep well after your return home and don’t forget our date tomorrow.
”
Dulcie nodded.
