Waiting For a Girl Like You - Chapter 1009 Kick Down The Ladder Too Early

“…… Okay then. Now I have enough time to rest,”

Steven said with a satisfied smile on his face.

He was finally in a good mood and this would surely help him revitalize his health.

“Master, make sure you take the medicine when the water is a little cooler and then I’ll call the doctor to come and give you a checkup,”

Victor shook his head in resignation. Steven had taken the medicine a few days earlier, but it didn’t work.

Although he knew very well that it was because of the lack of proper rest.

“Okay, that sounds good to me,”

Steven answered with a smile. When he noticed that there was someone at the door, he said, “Victor, go and clean your room now. We might take some time here.”

“Yes, sir.”

Victor turned his attention towards Carla and looked at her carefully. He nodded approvingly at her before walking out of the room.

“I’m happy that you came,” Steven said, curving up his lips. He then slowly stood up and fetched a beautiful tea pot. “I haven’t yet managed to add any more furniture. This pot was just delivered. Let me brew some tea for you.”

Carla quietly looked around. She saw the medicine bottles and the pills placed neatly on the nearby table.

When she looked up, Steven was in front of her with a cup of tea in his hand.

She inhaled the fragrant tea that was just offered to her and looked at his neatly trimmed slender fingers. While taking the cup from his hand she accidentally touched them.

Steven was perplexed for a moment.

But he quickly regained his composure and smiled. His pale and handsome face was brightened by his charming smile. It made him so attractive that people often found it difficult to look away.

“Carla, are you still here?”

Carla almost snapped back to reality and quickly took the cup from Steven’s hand. After a thoughtful pause, she asked, “Steven, what makes you keep going?”

It usually took at least half a year for a professional painter to finish a scroll of that size if he or she worked on it every day.

He had been in Yu Sea City for only one month. How did h

t you see that?”

Steven stood with his back to Carla. He let a tear drop glitter in the corner of his eye as he spoke.

“Steven…”

“Carla, I have come this far and I have gone through so much. At least let me enjoy a moment of achievement, even if just for a second. Don’t kill the buzz like this please, okay?”

Steven said in an unpredictably bitter and agitated tone.

“If you really want me to leave, I will leave after you become the matriarch. Till then let me be near you, even if temporarily.”

After saying that, he poured all the pills on his hand, put them all at once into his mouth and swallowed them in one big gulp.

“Cough!”

Steven coughed hard and breathlessly. Then he took the glass and quickly drank some water.

Carla looked at his flushed face and sighed. She calmly poured a glass of water and handed it to him.

Steven emptied the glass quickly. He then looked up at Carla. Something overcame him and he pushed the glass away as he held her tightly.

He suddenly kissed her lips passionately, sending the bitter taste to her mouth.

Carla tried her best to resist, but failed.

Steven kissed Carla ferociously as if all his pent-up emotions found an outlet. He wanted to bite her lips but didn’t have the heart to do so.

At this very moment, he realized that besides loving Carla madly he also hated her with all his heart!

He hated her for being so ruthless and careless towards him.
