I Don't Want Anything, Except for You (5)

So Ye Sijue was right. There really had been people tailing them!2

However, she had never imagined that they were actually Chris's men.

Since she was young, Annie had never suspected Chris of anything. Thus, she was feeling really conflicted at the moment.

Chris looked up and met her gaze. "Yes, I did send people to tail you but never to hurt you. His injuries had nothing to do with me."

His words made Annie speechless.

Chris had indeed sent people to tail them, but he didn't hurt them. Ye Sijue's accident was unrelated.

"Then… Why did you send someone to tail us?" Annie asked gloomily.

Chris met her gaze. Instead of answering, he asked, "What do you think?"

"How am I supposed to…"

Annie didn't speak the last word, for she felt as though she had been exposed by his piercing gaze.

So, he must have been aware of her emotional entanglement with Ye Sijue, right?

Did he send someone to tail her because she was afraid that she would run off with Ye Sijue?

Suddenly, Annie felt really tired and fell on the bed. She felt her eyelids close as she held a hand to her head. "Why do I feel so tired suddenly…"

Chris's gaze didn't change as he bent over and touched her cheek. "Sleep if you're tired. Don't think about anything else."

Annie was so tired that she didn't even hear what he said but she nodded her head instinctively.

Chris helped her onto the bed and tucked her in.

Annie's eyelids closed over her eyes and she fell into a deep sleep.

Chris sat by the bed and looked at her sleeping visage for a long while before he left.

...

The next day.

Annie had never slept so deeply before.

Her mind was a little disoriented when she woke. She had to think for a while before she remembered what had happened the previous night.

She got off the bed in a hurry, wanting to check on Ye Sijue.

Just then, a domestic helper came in. Bowing, she said, "Miss, you're awake. His Royal Highness is waiting for you in the dining room."

"I'm not eating. I'm going to the hospital right now." Looking down, Annie realized that she was wearing her pajamas. She turned around hastily to change out of them.

The domestic helper followed behind her. "Miss, His Royal Highness wants you to look for him in the dining room after you wake."

"I already said that I won't be eating breakfast. Prepare a car for me. I'm going to the hospital." Annie wrapped a scarf around herself as she thudded down the stairs.

"But…"

Just as the domestic helper was agonizing over how she could persuade her, the butler appeared and stopped Annie.

"Miss, His Royal Highness is waiting for you in the dining room." The butler bowed and gestured towards the dining room.

"I…" Compared to the domestic helper, Annie was more respectful of the butler.

"Please." The butler smiled.

Annie could do nothing but go to Chris. She planned to tell him that she was heading to the hospital.

She entered the dining room and saw Chris eating breakfast.

Upon seeing Annie arrive, helpers immediately started to set her breakfast down.

Annie walked over and a helper pulled out a chair for her.

She said to Chris, "I don't feel like eating. Chris, prepare a car for me. I want to go to the hospital right now."

Chris put his utensils down and looked at her. "You have to eat breakfast. Everything else can wait after you've eaten. If you don't eat, then we don't have anything to discuss."
