Master Blair's Fiery Pursuit

Mable slept until the next morning.

When she woke up, she saw Blair sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at her.

Blair had not rested all night. His usually dark eyes were slightly red, and he had heavy dark eye circles.

"You're awake." His voice was dry and hoarse.

Blair helped her sit up and handed her a cup of water.

"Thanks."

Mable drank half of the glass and had just put the cup down when Blair suddenly pulled her hard into his arms.

"W-what are you doing?"

The force Blair used left Mable breathless.

"Mabes."

He called her name hoarsely.

"I won't let anything happen to you-absolutely not!"

Mable thought he was still worried about the poison's attack yesterday and patted his shoulder. "I'm fine now."Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Blair nodded and gently stroked the back of her head.

"You haven't had anything all day. What do you want to eat?" He asked her.

"Anything, as long as it's something light."

"Okay. I'll have someone prepare it."

Mable watched him leave. She was unsure if she was overthinking it, but he looked hurt whenever he glanced at her.

Following that, Mable went to the bathroom and took a shower. She stood before the mirror and looked at the hickeys on her collarbone. It reminded her of yesterday's absurdity. Since it was so painful to stay by his side, she would leave.

She would have had to leave sooner or later anyway.

Mable smiled bitterly. After coming out of the bathroom, she called Hugh.

"Hey, Boss."

"Bring some men to Richworth. I want to transfer my grandpa to Ashdale's hospital."

Kyle was not in Richworth at the moment, and only a few bodyguards were guarding her grandpa in the nursing home. It should not be hard for Hugh to take her grandpa away.

Hugh froze before he asked, "Then you...?"

Mable said, "I'll be leaving Richworth too."

Hugh responded, "Okay, then I'll move now. I'll arrive at Richworth latest by tonight."

"Mm."

Mable hung up and went downstairs.

"Mabes, you're fine!" Tracey rushed up to help her.

Mable smiled and waved her hand. "Don't be so nervous. I'm fine now."

Tracey jokingly punched her shoulder with red eyes. "You scared me to death yesterday!"

With how much pain Mable was, Tracey was afraid she was going to die.

"I'm sorry for not telling you about it. It's an old illness I have, and it hurts from time to time. I have a low pain tolerance, so I reacted more strongly. I'm fine now."

"Why didn't you wear a jacket before coming down?" Blair walked over from behind and put a shawl on her.

Mable did not know to cry or laugh. "It's summer. I'm not cold."

Blair held her hands. "Your body was freezing yesterday, and you had a lot of cold sweat. You should watch it."

The smile on Mable's face froze.

Cold sweat from a drop in body temperature was a common phenomenon of the poison's attack.

"Come eat."

Blair brought Mable to the dining room.

She did not have much appetite, so she finished eating very soon.

"Are you done?" Blair asked with a frown.

"I'm full."

Mable was stunned. "I'm fine now. I don't need to go to the hospital."
