The night was so long.
Time passed by d*mn slowly!
Looking at Elizabeth's sleeping face, James felt at ease, but he was also suffering.
His back and butt were so itchy!
He couldn't lie down because of the injuries on his body, and could only lie on his side. Elizabeth's head pillowed on one of his arms. It seemed that she was really worried that he would scratch his back after she fell asleep. She grabbed the other hand of him tightly with both of his hands.
Therefore, it was impossible for him to scratch his back at the moment.
No! He was a real man and his words carried weight. How could he break his promise?
But... he felt really itchy and couldn't stand it!
He had been suffering like this for two hours, but he didn't feel sleepy at all, and his wounds became itchier and more uncomfortable.
Finally, he could only grit his teeth and gently break away from her hands. Then he put her head on the pillow softly before letting out a sigh of relief.
Anyway, he couldn't fall asleep, so there was no need for him to lie on the bed. He'd better get up!
He slowly walked to the study and smoked several cigarettes. Only then did he feel a little calmer.
Then he began to deal with the documents in the company. He looked at them word by word very carefully just to divert his attention.
In order not to keep standing like this, he took the documents to the small sofa in the study and lay on it. He hoped that he could fall asleep when he was so tired.
However, when he finished reading all the documents, he didn't feel sleepy at all and became more and more energetic.
D*mn it!
He still felt an unbearable itch on his back, and he couldn't help but want to reach out his hand to scratch it, but he stopped in an instant when his hand touched his back.
Alas! Why did he have to promise her such a thing?
It should be okay for him to scratch it secretly.
No! How could he be like this? He should keep his promise and be a real man!
Oh... He felt so sad and doleful! But he just couldn't shed any bitter tears.
He had finished reading the documents. What should he do?
He had never been so annoyed with his efficiency in doing things, really.
In the past, he was very proud of his efficiency. After all, he could save a lot of time and it could prove that he was very capable.
But he couldn't help but feel sad at this moment. Why was he so efficient? It was in the middle of the night and there was a long time before dawn.
He lit another cigarette and took out his mobile phone to play games. He liked to play the game in the past. However, he lost interest when he only got to the fifth round of the game.
He threw the phone aside and looked out of the window speechlessly, feeling that he was the loneliest and most miserable person in the world.
All he could do was to sigh.
After sighing so many times, he finally couldn't control himself and sat up. Then she slowly leaned on the back of the sofa and rubbed his back gently.
He didn't scratch his back but just rubbed it. He didn't break his promise, did he?
But he was just so greedy. While rubbing his back, he felt dissatisfied and still wanted to scratch it. He cursed gloomily, simply stood up and took his mobile phone by the way.
At this time, it was better to find something to do to divert his attention.
He thought of Benjamin at first, but Benjamin hung up the phone ruthlessly as soon as the phone was connected!
