Noreen snapped at him.


    He knew she wouldn''t be particrly warm to him while she was sober.


    But Seth still sighed. "You''re much cuter when you''re drunk."


    She didn''t push him away or give him the cold shoulder then.


    She didn''t say hurtful things either.


    She even wanted to kiss him.


    Noreen was already feeling irritable. An inexplicable ball of anger burned in her chest with nowhere to go.


    Hearing him bring up that night made her bristle like a threatened cat. She shot him a furious re.


    "If you bring up that night again, I''m going to hire a hitman to take you out!"


    Seth raised an eyebrow. "Is Ms. Gilmore really going to use me and toss me aside?"


    Noreen was flustered, her face burning red. She immediately denied it. "When did I use you?"


    "So, you didn''t get what you wanted, and now you''re taking your frustration out on me?"


    "You''re the frustrated one!"


    "Yeah, I am. So when are you going to help me out with that?"


    He hadn''t been with a woman in five years; of course he was frustrated.


    Noreen was utterly speechless.


    When it came to being shameless, she was no match for Seth.


    Ultimately, all she could do was indignantly mutter, "You''re crazy."


    She then stomped off to the restroom.


    She lingered in the restroom for a while. Only when the heat in her cheeks subsided did she get up to leave.


    But the moment she stood up, a sharp, heavy cramp hit her lower abdomen.


    The familiar agony made her realize her period had arrived early.


    No wonder she had been so moody today-it was just the hormones.


    Fortunately, she always carried a tampon in her purse, so she wasn''t stranded in the stall needing a rescue.


    But she hadn''t expected the cramps to hit this hard.


    By the time Noreen came out, Leonardo had returned.


    They were preparing to head to the next site on their itinerary.


    Noreen barely took two steps before a violent cramp made her gasp.


    Seth stopped immediately and looked at her. "What''s wrong?"


    Leonardo, who was leading the way, also turned back to look at her in concern.


    Noreen quickly shook her head. "I''m fine."


    But her hand instinctively pressed against her stomach.


    Seth caught the gesture. He abruptly turned to Leonardo. "Mr.

    Leonardo looked confused. "Is everything alright?"


    "We need to go to the hospital. Excuse us."


    Without waiting for Noreen''s permission, he scooped her up into his arms.


    He moved so fast that Noreen didn''t even have time to react.


    By the time she processed what was happening, she was already pressed against his chest.


    Embarrassed and annoyed, Noreen lowered her voice and ordered him to put her down.


    Seth ignored her, holding her even tighter.


    She was already in too much pain to put up a real fight.


    Maybe because it had arrived early, the pain this time was excruciating.


    Seth carried her quickly out the doors and ordered the driver to head to the nearest hospital.


    Noreen curled up against Seth, her face practically translucent.


    The twisting agony in her lower stomach felt like a dull knife


    scraping against her nerves. Cold sweat stered her bangs to her


    ther


    forehead.


    She bit her lip hard.


    Seth slipped his hand under the hem of her shirt.


    Startled, Noreen flinched and tried to squirm away.

    It almost felt like the pain was actually easing.
