Chapter 21
|| KIERA STEVENS’S POV||
“Is he okay now!“, 1 asked as soon as his man named David strode outside with a nurse aside. He smiled at me little then notified calmly, keeping his voice noticeably low,
dat
*He is but he doesn’t want to take any doctor’s help. As you know, he is one kind of stubborn man. I was wondering if you can convince him?”
*I will!” I replied immediately, knowing that it was only a favor that I owed him. Still it felt like a nightmare, thinking about the moment when he threw himself in front of us. He didn’t care about himself anymore. That guy with a gun aimed at Ryan. Then he came over to cover us even before the bullet could pass through us. He was injured and hurt.
Mom, is uncle hurt for me?“, Ryan asked, jerking my hands worryingly. Ever since he saw him hurt, Ryan remained quiet but the worry in his eyes didn’t dappear. He cared for a complete stranger who just met him.
Before I could give him my answer, David crunched down in front of him. He scooped him up in his arms with a smile, muttered in a promising voice before going in a different direction,
“Yes, hule guy! Your uncle is very strong. How about I show you something interesting?”
| sighed gratefully David’s action. He was considerable in comparison with his other men. He took back Ryan from here to divert his attention. Honestly, I didn’t want Ryan to stay here too. He wasn’t used to facing this kind of situation. This could break his little heart
I said that I don’t need it Fuck Off!“, his growing voice startled me as soon as the door was pushed open the doctors were coming out in fear. Their expressions said that they had been chased away, I looked coldly at the man in bed. A gauge wrapped around his left arm, he didn’t even look like he was in pain.
“What happened?“, I questioned at the doctor who just exhaled heavily. After sneaking a quick glance of him on the bed, he informed calmly. “That he doesn’t want to take an injection. He says that it’s useless.”
I gestured at him, trouting on my heels to go over to him,
Come with me!”
I spoke again, stopping by his bed side coldly,
“Luca! You need this. Let the doctor do their work.”
He growled at me, looking up grimly at my face,
– I said that I don’t need it, I know my body”
I scoffed back, glaring at his face,
– If you had known so well, you would have become a doctor instead of a gangster. Let them do whatever they want. If you are trying to get will call Ryan here and will see how you yell at him 100.
away. I
His face tell upon my words. Too stunned, he gave me a cold look before giving the doctor his hand. A sinte formed on my lips at his defense. I finally pulled the right trigger. No matter how he was to us, I understood that he couldn’t bear to yell at Ryan. If he was that resentful, he wouldn’t have agreed to follow has request without questioning in the fair.
Why don’t you go bark home with Ryan, Luca asked, raising his head up slightly. Finally, he wanted arguing with the doctors. They lud given him palls and injections before leaving. Thankfully, the bullet couldn’t pierce through his skin. It just slipped past his flesh slightly.
Closing the book in my hand, I replied i

Hayes flashed with surprise. His words stammered, looking into my eyes to search for his answer,

Chapter 21
He smirked cunningly and hummed, rolling on the other side of his bed. It seemed like no one had ever cared for him like that. Such a small rask made him happy.
Is he asleep?“, I asked my friend Jenny in a lower voice, sighing softly.
“Yes, he just fell asleep but he was telling me that he would go back to visit uncle Luca tomorrow morning“. Jenny spoke in a careful voice as she was next to Ryan probably who had fallen asleep. I exhaled in relief, smiled before answering.
Hmm! Thanks for today. Jenny. Take care of Ryan for me tonight!”
Jenny teased meaningfully.
Your son has a terrible taste. He went straight to liking the man, you hate.”
I rolled my eyes
frustratingly. I was surprised too but not anymore. He saved my son to prove that he cared for Ryan. We cut the call after a few more talks. I didn’t tell her that Luca was actually shot Ryan just told her that Luca had encountered some sort of accident. His affairs should be kept secret. That’s what I was doing according to his contract
Turning around, I found him, sleeping on the bed peacefully. It was hard to believe that this man was the head of the Mafias at this moment. He looked so hamless, innocent when he was sleeping
I walked back to his side. The doctor said that he might get light favours because of his medical effect. I was up to check on his condition from time to time. In the blink of an eye, one long hour had passed away, checking on his temperatures which began to rise slowly.
His forehead gathered sweat slowly, defining that his favor was coming. Having no choice. I began to use a towel to press at his forehead, forgetting the hatred that we had for tonight.
Late hours at night, I almost fell asleep when a pair of strong arms gripped me from falling, Jerking off back to reality, I saw his eyes were open and wide. He was awake and shocked to see me here.
Are you okay? Do you want me to call the doctor?”. I spoke naturally, trying to break free my hands from his grip. He didn’t talk for a second and slowly spoke in confusion.
“Why are you taking care of me?”
I was taken back by his question. He sounded like I was holding some motives behind his caring. Grinting my teeth together, I spat snatching back my arms from him,
Excuse me, I was grateful that you saved us, okay? Nothing else!”
His eyes looked lost. After he kept staring into my face for a while, he shoved my hands away, blurting out.
I don’t want your pity.
Get Lost!”
Awestruck, I stared at his face in absolute disbelief. His mood changed faster than Ipping a page. I was just being grateful to him for giving us protection although he was the sole reason behind that attack. I was controlling myself had to not brust at his face. Although, he wasn’t severly injured, doctor advised him to take rest for 2 days at least. I bet, he didn’t give a shit about that let alone taking rest. But thankfully, Ryan’s threat did work on him too fast. My little boy surely had charm to lure everyone including a maha boss
Jerking my hands off from him, I scoffed back, demanding my answer that had been crossing my mind,
“What are you.2) What’s wrong with me if I take care of you. Tell me then! Why did you throw yourself in front of ust Why did you save ust I am nothing but a mistress of yours, your new toy. Isn’t it? Tell me, why did you care for my son, Luca!”
