Mr George, Don't Be So Arrogant novel Chapter 44

In her heart, she wished badly that Hendrix would come here and take it on with Lydia, but then she remembered that she just had a fight with her, and if anything happened to Lydia now, it wouldn't do any good to anyone of them.

It wasn't that she felt sorry for Lydia, she just really wanted to have a peace for a while, so Riley made a decision.

She took out her phone, hesitated for a little, but then finally dialed Euan's number. She held her phone with the big screen in her hands, and used all of her strength, as if she wanted to meld this device in her hand.

It only rang three times before the line was connected, she didn't have the energy to wonder why it was so fast, and of course, she neither had the time for it.

After Euan picked the call, she heard his cold voice, "What is it?"

She was so looking forward to hear his voice, even if it was as simple as that, even if it was simply a few words that sounded like it was about work, in her ears, it was as if his voice carried his breath and heart beat, it wasn't simply his voice that she was hearing, it was a living Euan.

In just those few seconds, she had a lot of thoughts going on, the more she thought, the more she felt that she was useless, even at this time, she was still thinking about him.

In the presidential office of MBK, Euan was holding a file with his long fingers, and stopped flipping through it, he waited patiently for Riley to speak again.

It was quiet for a long time, and Riley thought that he hung up, she tilted her head and saw that the screen was still lit up, her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly picked up the topic from before, "Hendrix called me, he said that he saw the news, and want to come to the hospital to give Lydia a lecture, if you stop him now, it might still be in time."

Euan's brows were slightly knitted, his voice sounded like a cello as he spoke, and he flipped another page in his files again, "You are still in the hospital?"

He asked her in return, it had nothing to do with what she was talking about, but she was not immune to his tone, she had already offended him today, she couldn't allow it to happen again.

"Yes, I am still here..."

"Go home right now."

He was always like that, if he had made a decision, he wouldn't care about any other opinion, and exactly this dominant part of him made everyone listen to him.

"Are you even listening to what I am saying?" Hendrix is coming to the hospital looking for trouble with Lydia, if you don't want your child's mother to be hurt, you should try to stop him now."

Riley was getting anxious, after she finished her speech, she felt that she put too much power in it, she almost broke her phone, the screen that was on her cheek was hot enough to burn her.

Euan humphed coldly, "Are you worried about Lydia or about Hendrix? You better be worried about Lydia, if I find out that there is more to that, you know what I will do."

Riley's throat narrowed, she swallowed hard, "There is nothing between me and Hendrix."

"Have you rested well? Are you feeling better?"

Before she could hang up the phone, William suddenly came! He didn't notice that Riley was on the phone, so as soon as he entered the room, he asked her.

Euan already heard that the door was opened, and then there was a sound of keys rattling. Clearly, Riley was with a man, and that man opened the door himself!

She said she was in the hospital?

So this man, must be that doctor!

Riley was flurried, she pressed on her screen, and nodded towards William, then she lowered her head to look again, but Euan had already hung up.

Oh God, he must have heard that, this is going to bring her more trouble again.

She couldn't think about it, she will find a way when it happens.

William saw that she hurriedly hung up the phone, and knew that there was nobody who could make her so nervous apart from Euan.

William smiled at her gently, and pretended not to know anything, "How are you feeling? Is it better?"

Riley nodded her head, "I am alright, thank you for taking me in, but I gotta go now."

As she said so, she went to the bedroom to grab her jacket, then she threw it on her shoulders. She suddenly really wanted to leave this place, no matter if Euan misunderstood her, or if he didn't even bother about it. In her heart she just hoped that he won't feel more dislike towards her because of her actions.

William didn't try to keep her any longer, he laughed at himself, "I guess I am not attractive enough, I can't keep you here. I will send you back."

After Euan hung up the phone, he was furious, he threw himself into this chair, and his back crashed into the leather.

Then, he got up and took his jacket and car keys, and walked out of his office, Elijah wanted to come in to report some work to him, but before he could say anything, Euan said, "Tell me later."

Elijah stood there quite stunned as he watched him leave, this atmosphere was very familiar to him, only when he had problems with his wife, he would get so mad.

Euan quickly went to his car, turned the key, and at the same time, dialed Hendrix's number.

"No matter what you are trying to do, you have to stop right now."

Hendrix was on the way to the hospital in high speed, as he knitted his brows, "Euan, do you allow Lydia to mock your wife like that? She is your wife, who is Lydia? Why do you want to take her side?"

"And who do you think you are? The brother-in-law helps his sister-in-law? This excuse sounds very interesting!"

Hendrix paused for a little, he didn't even think that much, he just didn't want Lydia to keep mocking her, and he also couldn't stand that his brother was taking Lydia and not Riley's side.

"Euan..."

"Go home, right now!"

"But Euan, Riley, she must feel really bad inside."

He felt bad inside too, but still, he lowered his speed, bit his teeth, he wished he could beat Lydia to death without thinking about any consequences.

Euan's cold voice had a unique kind of strength, he slowly but strongly reminded him, "Hendrix, you are over the line, do I really need to explain it to you?"

Hendrix was speechless.

After hanging up the phone, Euan sped up.

At the hospital.

People were going back and forth, Riley didn't want anyone to see that er and William were together, so when she stepped on the elevator, she said, "I can go home by myself, the public transportation is very convenient."

She wouldn't allow William to send er home in his car, she didn't want William to get to know her more, her house, her family, her status, she felt that the less he knew about her, the better it was for both of them.

"I respect your decision, but you should allow me to have some face, you have already declined me so many times, now you don't even want to give me a chance to walk you for a little?"

She couldn't add anything to that anymore, so she allowed him to stay with her.

After they got out of the elevator, they went around the lobby, and she walked faster intentionally, William knew what she was thinking about, he wasn't in a rush, and kept a distance of almost 5 meters to her, it didn't look like the two of them were in any connection.

After they got out of the hospital gate, there was a bus stop on the right side, "I will go to wait for the bus, you can drive home already."

William couldn't help but to laugh, "I also want to take the bus today, you don't want to take over the bus stop all for yourself, do you?"

"Sir, we are adults, can we please not play such childish games? I have already made myself very clear, nothing would ever happen between us!"

William shrugged, "So I guess you have recovered fully, the cold Dr. Watson that I know is back, okay then, take care of yourself!"

In that moment, a black Rolls Royce stopped suddenly.

Euan saw that Riley walked out of the hospital with a man, he didn't expect that they would say goodbye for so long at the gate!

He felt so much anger in his heart, that it could have lit Riley on fire.

He unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door and got out.

Euan's long and light coat was twirled up because of his walking speed, his face showed indignation.

His tall body didn't take long before he reached the two of them, Riley saw him walking towards them, and she of course also noticed the storm in his eyes.

William was also anger in his heart.

Euan pulled Riley's little wrist, and pulled her so hard towards himself, that she fell into his arms.

His arms were like an unbreakable prison, holding her tiny body.

Riley was shocked, "What are you doing!"

Euan's thin lips showed anger, "You know what I am doing!"

William pretended as if he didn't know about the two of them, he grabbed Riley's other skinny arm as Euan had pulled her away, he was almost as tall as Euan, the two of them stared at each other, a sense of war covered the scene.

"Who are you? What are you doing?"

Euan said, "I should be asking you this question, what are you doing pulling my wife?"

Riley looked up at Euan, her mouth wide open because of her shock, did Euan just tell William that she was his wife?

This should be really exciting for her, but she told herself that she should think about this, since when had she gotten to such a low point, that she would feel like that just because of a tiny little sweetness he showed her?

Hasn't he always been so scornful?

But then again, she was Euan's puppet, he could do with her whatever he wanted, but he wouldn't allow anyone else to do so.

It had always been that way.

She was happy too early.

William didn't back off though, he smiled elegantly, "Wife? So she is your wife, but I don't see why you as her husband would leave her in front of the press and leave with another woman. It doesn't seem like something a husband would so, does it?"

Euan grabbed Riley's shoulders tightly, he didn't give her any space to struggle, he would control her completely, he would take her, and everyone else would have to give up!

"This only involves me and my wife, you don't need to worry about that." Euan used too much strength on her, she didn't even dare to move at all, maybe her shoulder was already crushed by him.

William let go of her, he said in all seriousness, "Dr. Watson is a good doctor at our institution, I have the responsibility to take care of her, including when it comes to home violence."

The two men were staring at each other as if it was a battle, the atmosphere was filled with fire.

Riley was very disappointed, she didn't expect that William would know about her identity, not only the fact that he knew, but also the way he found out.

She would never have the same status in his heart again.

"I see that you like to mind other's businesses, you like to judge others, I am here to pick up my wife from work, and you are accusing me of home violence, what are you trying to do? Do you want to make a complaint against me as well?"

His lips were slightly tilted as he spoke back.

Riley bit her lips, no matter what she wanted to say, it would be inappropriate, and it would cause even more trouble.

William still tried to help her without backing off, "Since you are her husband, I hope that you will take responsibility as a husband instead of letting your own wife get hurt and be wronged. If you are her husband, you should know that her knee can't get any worse again, and the wounds on her face are because of you."

William's heart trembled, then he looked at Riley, but she had already lowered her head, all he could see was her long hair that fell into her face.

"And, as a man, you shouldn't allow your woman to cry."

Cry?

Euan looked at Riley in disbelief, sadly, she looked down, so all he could see was the back of her head.

He grabbed her waist with his big hand, her body was trembling softly, was she really crying because of him?

The woman that never cried was now crying because of him?!
