You're The Best Medicine For Me novel Chapter 85

Her body stiffened and saw Bryan standing behind her when she turned.

Shirley stunned seeing her behind and she turned to remove the safety belt on Emma's body.

She got down the car carrying two children, each with one hand.

But she lost balance because of the weights on her hands and her body leaned forward.

She screamed in shock and both the children made an "Ah" sound too.

At that critical moment, Bryan took a huge step forward and have all three of them in his arms.

Both the children lean against Bryan's chest.

The children were snatched away from Shirley within seconds.

She raised her head abruptly and saw Bryan with the two children in his arms while his hands were holding on her shoulders. He said gently, "Be careful."

Shirley blushed. She stepped backwards and complaint, "You stood outside the door just now, I tripped because I wanted to avoid you. Didn't I ask you to wait for me at Splendour Manor? You should tidy yourself before I go there, look at the time now."

She raised her mobile and pointed at the time. It was already half-past nine, if it wasn't for the party, he had already in bed.

It was also the first time Mildred saw Shirley being impatient with a patient.

She stood aside and laughed out.

Shirley turned and stared at her, "What are you laughing at?"

"Both of you look like an old couple."

There was a sight of happiness on Bryan's face when he heard that.

Jordan gave a thumb up discreetly too.

But Shirley was annoyed, she realized that her tone just now was improper. She should have addressed him as Mr Moore and spoke to him as a doctor instead of complaining.

Now that everyone was staring at her, even her children gloated her situation, Shirley's face was as red as an apple.

She clenched her fists and said angrily, "What are you joking about? Give me back my children, it's their bedtime."

She went towards Bryan and put her hands on the waists of the children.

Mildred saw it and rushed over to take Emma and Jacob. The children were with her now, she swept a glance at Bryan and Jordan.

"Mr Moore is here to fetch you, you don't need to worry about the children, go get busy."

"I need to go get change."

"Let me get it for you then, you don't have to go in, wait here." Mildred interrupted and brought the children inside.

Not long after, Cameron brought a dress with him, Shirley complaint inwardly when she took over the dress.

What was so good about Bryan Moore that Mildred kept acting like a cupid?

"Get on," Bryan said from behind.

Shirley frowned and froze for a moment before getting into the car.

A soft and gentle music rhythm was played in the car.

Bryan kept his eyes shut and lean against the seat since he got on the car but the interaction between Kevin and Shirley tonight kept flashing in his mind. Even though Kevin claimed he took Shirley as a sister, but he got more information from Jacob.

Kevin had stayed by Shirley's side since the children were born.

He acted like a big brother to Shirley in front of everyone, but who knew his intention behind it?

He opened his eyes, glanced at the woman beside him, sat up straight and put his arm on Shirley's shoulder.

Shirley's body stiffened. She turned to look at the arm on her shoulder and was pulled into his arms while she was still confused.

Her face fell into his chest, she felt the heat from his body on her face.

She put her hands on her chest immediately to push him away. "Bryan Moore, I told you not to hug me like this, we are not in that kind of relationship."

"It seems like Kevin treats you really well." The harder she pushed, the angrier he felt. He said angrily, "So he was the reason why you rejected me?"

"What are you talking about?" Shirley trembled, she never thought that Bryan would pay attention to Kevin.

Her relationship with Kevin was like he claimed during the dinner, a bother and sister, there was never romantic love between them.

If there was love, they would have been a couple a long time ago. Why wait until six years later?

However, Bryan's thought was different.

When a man addressed a woman as a sister without biological relation, it was not ordinary.

"Tell me what should I do for you to say yes." Bryan looked at the woman in his arms and felt defeated.

Shirley was soft, gentle and smiley when she was with Kevin, even her voice was softer. But when she was with him, she talked like a lioness, as if like they were enemies in their previous lives, they always ended up fighting.

He suspected that Shirley with Kevin and him were two different people.

Shirley knew she couldn't free herself from his arms, hence she brought up their promise made yesterday. "If you continue acting like this, I will reconsider about moving into the Moores' Manor."

Bryan stunned and was angry, there was nothing he could do but to let her loose in an instant.

Shirley escaped from his arms. She immediately picked up her purse and moved to the corner.

He sat on the left while she sat on the far right.

She looked at Bryan cautiously, she felt angry thinking about what he had done just now.

Was that a proper way to woo a girl?

Forcing someone to be your wife.

Try doing a street interview to find out if that was how the men wooed their wives.

She became angrier thinking about this.

"Mr Moore, please be cautious about your behaviour, we did sleep together but I didn't let you, if you think you've been taken advantage of, you can give me a price then."

Jordan's hand slipped from the steering wheel and almost lost control of the car.

Bryan swept a glance at him angrily, Jordan immediately held on tight onto the steering.

There was only Dr. Thomas who dared to speak to Bryan like that.

Bryan said coldly, "Dare to repeat what you said?"

"Of course." Shirley didn't care anymore, she threw her purse aside and said. "Yes, we had sex, but there's no law stating that I need to marry the guy I had a one night stand with!"

"You…"
