Chapter 225

    Chapter 225 N added, Also, my grandfather has a medical book hes having trouble understanding, and hed love for you to help him with it.


    Andrew smiled warmly.


    Of course.


    If I have the time, Ill be happy to visit him


    Her pale cheeks flushed as two adorable dimples appeared, and she practically skipped away, beaming with excitement


    Christina sat to the side, watching the exchange with a bitter feeling


    Andrew, that nurse is from Jayrodales Goth family, isnt she? Andrew nced at her, puzzled.


    Im not really sure about her background.


    Christina let out a bitterugh.


    Come on, stop pretending.


    Its written all over her face.


    Shes one step away from throwing herself at you.


    She continued, Ever since you left me, your luck with women has skyrocketed.


    First, there was Ms.


    Rhodes, then Ms.


    Aicker, and now this little nurse.


    Andrew, maybe leaving me was the best decision you ever made.


    Andrews expression stayed calm as he met her eyes


    Whats your point in bringing this up? And lets not twist the story, I didnt leave you you and your ambitions pushed me away.


    I was nothing more than an inconvenience to you, someone you kicked aside without hesitation. You havent forgotten that, have you, Ms.


    Stevens ? Her face flushed red, her pale lips trembling as she tried to respond.


    Y You know thats not what I meant.


    Andrews voice turned colder


    Whatever you meant doesnt matter to me anymore.


    His bluntness and icy demeanor left Christina feeling a wave of sadness and helplessness.


    Tears welled up in her eyes as she bit her lip, trying to keep herposure.


    With a shaky voice, she asked, If you dont care about me anymore, then why are you even here ? Are


    you here to gloat? Tough my mom and brother after they were nearly beaten to death? Are you here


    to mock me for being such a blind, foolish woman? The fear, humiliation, regret, and exhaustion she had bottled up sincest night finially erupted, spilling out in her words and tears.


    Andrews expression faltered slightly as he looked at her.


    He had never seen Christina cry like this before.


    The Christina he knew was strong, stubborn, and fiercely independent someone who never let her pride crack in front of others


    But now, she sat curled up on the bed, clutching herself tightly as her body shook with quiet sobs.


    He knew that for her to break down like this, her walls must havepletely crumbled.


    Chapter 225 Francesca stepped in at that moment, ncing at Christina with a mix of concern and annoyance.


    Dr.


    Lloyd, why dont you take Ms.


    Stevens out for some fresh air ? She hasnt slept or eaten anything sincest night.


    If she keeps this up, her body wont hold up much longer


    Christina wiped her tears with trembling fingers her voice firm despite her tiredness.


    Thank you for your concern, Dr.


    Aicker, but Im fine.


    Andrews tone was cold as he retorted, Do you honestly think you know your condition better than a doctor? Come with me.


    Before Christina could protest further, Andrew grabbed her hand and pulled her toward his office. She struggled a few times, but when she caught his sharp, intimidating gaze, she stopped resisting. Andrew was no longer the amodating, gentle man she remembered.


    Now, he was unyielding and, at times, even harsh


    Yet, despite his domineering demeanor, Christina did not feel anger or resentment.


    If anything, hismanding presence sent a nervous flutter through her heart each time.


    Meanwhile, back in the intensive care unit.


    No sooner after Andrew and Christina left, the door swung open.


    A group of ten burly bodyguards, all wearing sunsses, filed in, escorting none other than Harvey himself.
