Chapter 27 - FEELS GUILTY

....

When he came out if the bathroom, he saw that Marianne was already sound asleep.

He dressed up and got into the bed ,he covered himself with a quilt and pulled Marianne into his arms.

He was really happy that his little girl was starting to get comfortable with him.

...

Marianne woke up refreshed, she felt much better than yesterday ,she looked at the other side if the bed and saw that Raymond was still sleeping ,she looked at his handsome face and wondered how someone would be so handsome ,he did not even match with the boys she saw in high school, she couldn't help but touch his cool cold lips .

She realized what she was doing and was about to retreat but her hand was caught by Raymond who had already woken up.

Are You stealing glances at me ,he smiled playfully and asked.

Marianne pulled her hand and retreated to the other side and said. Who is stealing glances at you ,I was just looking at you openly.

So you are admitting that you were really looking at me, so tell me am I handsome Raymond said.

Well ,I won't lie to you , you are really handsome. Marianne said covering her face.

Haha , Raymond chuckled and got out of the bed , he kissed her forehead and said. I am going to take a shower now , I will be back soon he said and got into the bathroom.

After he left Marianne looked at her leg for a moment before slowly getting done from the bed.

Although it was a bit painful ,she still endured it and limped into the other bathroom in the room.

...

Raymond soon came out of the bathroom ,and didn't see Marianne anywhere.

Where did she go to ,she can't work , Raymond was still wondering , when the adjacent bathroom opened.

He turned and saw Marianne , limping out if the bathroom ,he quickly dropped the towel and rushed to help her.

Why did you get out of bed yiu know you can't walk , Raymond said lifting her off the ground.

Hey ,put me down if Yiu keep carrying me like this I may never work , don't You know that if I keep walking my leg will get better Marianne said protesting .

Raymond ignored her and carried her to the dressing room and kept her on the chair.

If you get dressed,call me to carry Yuu out ,I don't want to take any chances until Yiu are fully recover.

BANG!!!!.

Marianne didn't say anything and banged the door at Raymond.

Raymond who was almost hit on the nose ,looked confused . What did I do now he said and turned to enter his own dressing room.

.....

Marianne finished dressing and slowly walked out and was suprised to see that Raymond was standing on the door waiting for her.

Raymond saw that she had come out he reached out to carry her but before he could ,Marianne pushed him aside and sternly warned.

Raymond I am not a baby ,and if You try to carry me ,I will post your baby picture on WeChat.

But you are injured , Raymond unwilling to give up.

If You want to help me , You can help me walk but don't carry me ,I understand your concern but I feel uncomfortable being carried all the time, I know Yiu care but you should take it slow with me You know I am not yet that comfortable with this , Marianne held Raymond hand and gently explained.

Raymond understood what she said he knew that she was still adjusting ,so in other not to make her get annoyed with him ,he gave up the idea if carrying her, instead he held her hand and helped her to sit on the bed.

He quickly wore his suit and grabbed his work bag and said.

I am ready we can head downstairs now , Raymond said reaching out his hand.

Marianne grabbed her phone and headset ,and quickly placed her hand on Raymond's.

Raymond helped her up and the slowly left the room.

....

When they got downstairs, Marianne was surprised to see a familiar dog . When did it get here , Marianne tuned and asked Raymond.

I asked David to to bring it here to keep you company, mum and grandma went to visit a relative of theirs that gave birth, explained helping her walk down the stairs.

She called out to him. Kion.

Kion who heard it,s name saw Marianne coming down the stairs with the help of Raymond, excitedly ran towards Marianne but seemed but remember something stopped.

Huh ,kion why did you stop , Marianne muttered looking confused.

Well it still feels guilty about what happened the last time ,it feels that if you hadn't gone out to look for it , You wouldn't have been kidnapped , Raymond helped her sit done and explained.

Marianne sighed and beckoned it to come. Kion ,good boy come here.

Kion didn't want to go but when it received Raymond's threatening gaze it walked over but maintaining his distance.

Marianne pretended to be angry . Kion if you keep doing this I will go to the let store and get a new dog that loves me .

Upon hearing what Marianne said ,he quickly ran up to Marianne and rubbed against her sit .

Marianne ,smiled and picked it up and then said . Kion You don't have to blame Yourself ,u didn't look very well and went outside ,so it was my fault She gently said.

Kion did not say any but rubbed against Marianne feeling a familiar warmth.

Soon the maid came out with the flask and handed it to Marianne and hurriedly left.

Marianne handed the flask to Raymond and said. You can have your breakfast in the car or at the office ,I will bring you lunch in the afternoon.
