Chapter 173 Feel the Jealousy
Damian carefully sat beside her, wiping the
reached for his hand, pulling it close against her chest and holding
Frowning, he kicked off his shoes and slipped under the covers with her, wrapping her in his arms.
Only then did he realize how cold she was beneath the blankets–shivering all over
He kissed her forehead, holding her even tighter.
“Goodnight, sweetheart,” he murmured.
Isabelle seemed to sense his warmth. Gradually, her body stopped shivering, and her breathing deepened into a more pea sleep
“Damian… answer your phone…” she whimpered softly.
Damfan’s brow creased with a deep frown.
“I’m sorry, Belie. I’m so sorry” The guilt inside him felt overwhelming
Even now, he was still afraid.
When she woke the next morning, Isabelle found herself lying on Damian’s chest.
This 6–foot–3 man squeezed into a 4–foot–11 hospital bed with her… he must be so uncomfortable.
When did he climb in? I didn’t even notice. Am I just used to his scent now? Have I really let my guard down this much?
Isabelle carefully tried to slide her arm out and get up, but Damian tightened his hold around her.
“Sleep a little longer,” he said.
His warm breath washed over the top of her head, carrying the faint scent of sandalwood from his skin. She noticed then that he d changed into completely fresh clothes.
Damian didn’t let her rise. Trapped in his embrace, she couldn’t move.
Isabelle didn’t fight it. It was still early anyway.
“How are you feeling?” he asked.
She wasn’t really injured, just sore and achy all over. “Fine.”
Damian rested his chin on the top of her head.
“Kiss…” He whispered the word near her ear, his warm breath curling around her.
“In your dreams,” Isabelle retorted, shooting him a look.
Just then, a knock sounded at the door

Isabelle flinched, startled.
If someone sees us like this…
“Get up,” she hissed, pushing against his chest with all her might.
Damian’s eyes darkened. After a moment, he finally got up.
His expression had turned somber, as if he already guessed who was outside.
He tugged the blankets up to cover her properly, then turned his back toward the door as it opened.
Collin walked in, taking in the sleepy scene.
Isabelle’s face was still flushed with sleep.
Then his eyes landed on the man beside her.
Well. That explains it.
“Morning,” Isabelle said awkwardly.
“Morning,” Collin replied calmly.
“Morning,” Damian added, sounding pleased with himself.
Collin set the breakfast he was carrying on the coffee table in front of the sofa. “Visiting my grandmother. Thought I’d bring you some chicken soup on the way.”
His tone was gentle, meant only for Isabelle.
“Thank you,” Isabelle said, forcing a small smile.
“Only brought one serving, though. Mr. Cross will have to find his own breakfast,” Collin added.
A smirk touched Damian’s lips. Collin’s presence didn’t seem to threaten him–it just annoyed him.
“No problem. I’ll finish whatever she leaves,” Damian said.
Collin smiled, “There’s not much. Doubt it’ll be enough for two.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure she’s full first,” Damian said, smiling.
Under the covers, Isabelle’s face burned.
If I could sink through the floor right now, I would.
Collin let out a soft snort. He understood the implication perfectly, but didn’t want to put Isabelle on the spot. He’d made his point -no need to push further.
“Belie, I’ll go see my grandmother now,” he said.
“Okay. Thanks again,” she smiled.

Collin returned the smile and left.
Damian sat back down beside her, leaning over to cage her between his arms. His voice dropped. “Hungry?”
Isabelle didn’t answer.
