Crises in Love novel Chapter 270

He saw Gevena and Catherine present, giving them a nod in greeting. Then he turned to me, asking softly, "How are you feeling? Are you alright?"

He was dressed in a black shirt and trousers, exuding an air of masculinity. As our eyes met, I could feel a sudden flush on my face.

"I'm fine."

"You must be kidding! Fine? Do you have any idea what you did when you were brought here?" Catherine looked at me, her face full of curiosity, her expression overly dramatic, "You were delirious, feverish, screaming."

I stared at her in shock, "Are you talking about me?"

Catherine burst into laughter, "Mr. Richardson, listen to this. She's saying it wasn't her. Well, I wouldn't know then who could have done such a thing. If it wasn't you, was it me? Just like this..." As she spoke, she waved her hands around in the air, gesturing wildly at me, "Just like this. Don't tell me that you didn't know."

I was speechless at Catherine's exaggerated performance, then turned to Gevena for confirmation, "Is she talking about me? Did something like this really happen?"

Gevena, always serious, nodded, "Yes, indeed it did. You were probably just scared."

I felt speechless as I stole a glance at Ronan. He was watching me with a smirk on his face.

It made me embarrassed. I wished I didn't know anything about it.

It was Ronan who spoke up for me, "You were already unwell at that time. Plus, you were exposed to the cold wind on that dark rainy night, soaked in water for a long time, and faced all this alone. You did really well." As Ronan spoke, I could see a hint of concern in his eyes.

"You have no idea how worried Mr. Richardson was. You were in a terrible state when you were brought to the hospital. He stayed by your side until you calmed down." Hannah added.

I looked at Ronan and a question popped into my mind. I blurted out, "Mr. Richardson, I have a question. When Bald had a gun to my head, why did you try to provoke him? Weren't you afraid he would shoot me?"
