Trapped with a Doctor novel Chapter 354

She opened her eyes when she heard Jeffery's voice. She rushed to him in spite of the pain on her feet and said, "Jeffery, I just want to go back to save the company. I don't want to be here and investigate anything any more."

Jeffery was confused by her words. He looked at the frightened woman and thought, 'What was she talking about? What did she want to investigate?

But is this place really terrifying?' He had been living there for a dozen years. Nobody but he and the butlers taking care of his life lived there, and sometimes some of his friends would crash his place for a couple of nights. He had never felt scared at all.

Cathy asked, "Oh my god! How could you live here all alone? I think you should go see a psychologist. Okay?"

Jeffery didn't know how to respond. He said, "I'm very well, I don't need any shrinks."

Cathy pushed him further, "Jeffery, could you stay with me tonight?"

"What?......"

"Don't get me wrong. I meant that you can sleep on the ground, and I will sleep on the bed."

Jeffery smiled and said, "Sorry, Your Majesty, but this is my house."

Cathy pouted and said, "But you're a man, and I'm a woman. Men are supposed to take care of women, and even spoil them."

Jeffery said, "That happens between lovers, and we're not lovers. I don't have to take care of you, got it?"

Cathy stood up and held her arms across her chest. She proudly looked at Jeffery and said, "Well, under this situation, I can pretend to be your girlfriend for a few hours. Come on, let's go rest, and as I've said, I sleep in the bed, while you on the ground."

Jeffery felt that it was ridiculous and asked, "Shouldn't you ask me if I agree or not?" Jeffery couldn't believe there was a woman who was more feisty than Angela.

Cathy then asked him if he agreed.

Jeffery said no, and then he walked toward his room.

Cathy caught up with him and stood in front of him with stretched out arms, then she said, "Jeffery, you will be responsible if I ever get hurt."

She behaved so strongly, just like whenever she was in her office.

Jeffery sneered, held his arms across his chest, and said, "How could you get hurt? And, are you not afraid of being with a man alone?"

"Nope, " Cathy answered with certainty.

"Why are you so sure? Do you think that you're not attractive to me at all?"

Cathy evilly smiled and said, "Because of Angela." She knew that Jeffery loved Angela, so he wouldn't touch any other women.

Cathy could sense the change of atmosphere when she mentioned Angela. Jeffery glanced at her and said, "Never say that name in front of me again." "You started it, okay?" Cathy said. Wasn't it he who wanted her to have a plastic surgery to look more like Angela before trying to catch his attention?

Jeffery had no choice, so he walked into her room.

With two people in the room, it relaxed Cathy. But when she was about to sleep, she suddenly remembered something.

She checked her watch. It was nearly 4 AM, the time when most people were sleeping.

She called out to Jeffery in a hushed voice.

But Jeffery didn't answer. He was obviously asleep. Perfect...

She quietly got out of her bed, walked over to Jeffery, and lay down beside him.

She once heard that people who were half asleep would tell the truth when asked, especially when they were having dreams... She wanted to give it a try.

She braced herself and asked slightly, "Jeffery..."

"Yes."

Jeffery answered, which cheered Cathy up, so she continued, "How long have you been called Purple Charm?"

"Many years."

Cathy calmed herself down and asked the most important question. If Jeffery would tell her the truth, she wouldn't have to get close to him anymore. She asked, "Who instigated you to break into Zhusong Group's defense system?"
