CEO's Mysterious Fiancee

Chapter 504 Deepening Affections

Paige sensed the girl’s discomfort and asked in a soft voice, “Is it hurting again?”

“Um…” The girl covered her abdomen, gritting her teeth. She then tried to reassure Paige, “It’s okay, it’s not as bad as before.”

“Let me take a look.” Paige began to check the girl’s pulse again.

Curling up on the bed with her face turned to the wall, the girl peered through a small hole and could see Paige’s pretty chin and her slender, elegant fingers resting on her wrist.

For some reason, she suddenly thought of that person in her mind….

If she could, she wished she could go back to see him, even if she could only catch a glimpse of him from a distance.

“How long has this poison been torturing you?” Paige let go of the girl’s hand and took out a small bottle of medicine from her backpack.

“A year and a half.” The girl smiled bitterly, surprised that she had been able to endure it for so long.

Paige’s hand paused for a moment upon hearing “a year and a half.” She suddenly remembered that the poison inside her own body had been there for at least a year, maybe even a year and a half.

“Take some painkillers and get some rest,” Paige said as she poured out a small pill from the bottle. and handed it to the girl.

Having only seen Paige’s fingers before, the girl now saw her entire beautiful hand and found it pleasing to the eye.

She took the pill and swallowed it.

“I’m going to make a phone call.” Paige got up and went outside the room, closed the door, and dialed a familiar number.

Martin seemed to have been waiting for the call from Paige. When he saw the screen light up, he answered almost immediately.

“Are you safe?” Martin asked.

“I’m very safe now,” Paige replied.

They spoke in unison and then laughed together.

Martin said warmly. Glancing at the time, he asked, “It’s already three in the morning. When will you come back? Will he be driving you back or should I come to
