Chapter 1068 No Compromise

The moment Paul woke up, he started blabbering again. "We just got out of a dangerous situation together, Narissa. You should feel something for me now. I'd still do it again if I were given the choice. If you promise to date me, I'll train myself once I get out of the hospital. I promise I can protect you. Um, Narissa? Hello? Earth to Narissa?

Narissa grunted.

"Just a grunt?" Paul was miffed. "I'm a patient. Can't you at least be nicer to me?"

Narissa ignored Paul's howls and left the room, but then she bumped into Alicia who had come to see her brother. It was their first meeting after the resort, and both of them looked fidgety. Things were awkward for a moment.

He broke the silence. "Well, don't just stand there. Come in."

Alicia snapped out of it and went around Narissa to see her brother. "So, are you alright? Does it hurt?"

"I'm alright." Paul patted his wound like it was some symbol of pride. "This is a badge of honor. Proof that I defended the woman I love."
