Need You Now
Chapter 275 I Just Want To Make Up For You

Kevin drove Heidy home. The car stopped slowly. When Kevin was about to say something, he found that Heidy had fallen asleep. Seeing this, Kevin smiled. "You actually can fall asleep in this way."

He got out of the driver's seat and went to the passenger seat. He unbuckled her seat belt, and then gently held her in his arms and walked towards the Hua family's villa.

When the Butler saw her, he asked in surprise, "What's wrong with Mrs. Heidy?"

"She is fine. I guess she fell asleep after drinking some wine," Kevin said in a low voice. "Where is Heidy'e bedroom?"

Hearing that, the Butler felt relieved. He smiled and said, "This way, please." Then the Butler walked ahead.

In the bedroom on the second floor, Kevin lifted the quilt and gently put Heidy on the bed. When he was about to pull his hand off, Heidy opened her eyes and looked at him.

In a daze, Heidy seemed to see Hearst's face. Without saying anything, she pulled Kevin's head and kissed him on the lips.

Kevin stiffened all of a sudden. He was taken aback by what happened and didn't dare to move a muscle. When he felt her warm lips on his, his rational self kept telling him that he should push her away since she had lost her mind after the drinks. But when he put his hands on her shoulders, he instantly lost all his strength. What was worse, he felt a strange electricity running through his body. When he came back to his senses, he was passionately kissing her back.

He pressed Heidy on the bed and deepened the kiss her and gently bite her soft lips. After kissing her for a while, he heard Heidy's steady breath. He slowly let go of her and looked at her sleeping like a log. He didn't know whether to cry or to laugh. "How could you sleep like this?"

He suddenly thought of what he had done, and immediately let go of her as if he had an electric shock. His heart was beating fast. As he turned to look at the woman on the bed, she was still sound asleep. Feeling somewhat helpless, Kevin said with a smile, "This woman..."

For a long time, Kevin seemed to had not noticed his feelings towards Heidy. It was not until Kevin kissed her back that he realized there was something wrong. Unconsciously, his affection for Heidy had already crossed the line. But he didn't notice and think about this change at all.

Seeing that she was sound asleep, Kevin bent over to tuck her in before leaving the room in a gentle way. He went downstairs. When he was about to leave the villa, he saw Hearst waiting there. When he saw Hearst, a dash of surprise flashed in his eyes. He walked up to Hearst and said calmly, "Since you are here, why don't you go up to see her?"

Hearst didn't say anything but looked at Kevin. After a short silence, Hearst asked coldly, "Do you fall in love with her, Kevin?"

Kevin didn't expect him to ask it suddenly. He stared at Hearst in a daze. Instead of answering his question, Kevin asked, "Then answer me first. Will you go back to her?"

Hearing this, there were mixed feelings in Hearst's heart. "No."

When Kevin remembered that he had come with Cathy in the club, he frowned and said in a low voice, "It seems that you really have abandoned Heidy. If you don't want her... She is mine."

Without saying a word, Hearst kept clenching his fists. Looking at the man in front of him, Hearst again coldly, "Do you like her?"

"Yes," Kevin replied honestly. "But I don't know since when."

Hearing the expected answer, Hearst had mixed feelings. He didn't know whether he should be happy or sad. With his hand on Kevin's shoulders, Hearst said in a solemn voice, "If you really like her, don't let her down. Otherwise, I will be the first one to beat you up." With that, Hearst strode away.

"Do you really have no feelings for Heidy? I can't believe it," Kevin blurted out. "As long as you still like her, I will never chase her."

In Kevin's eyes, friendship was of great importance. He didn't want his relationship with Hearst to be affected by a woman. It was because of this that he tried his best to restrain his feelings. Therefore, he didn't know for a long time that he had feelings for Heidy. Hearst turned back and saw the confused expression on Kevin's face. Instead of answering his question, Hearst tried to suppress his emotions and said, "I hope that you can make her happy. If it is you, I will also rest assured." Then, he turned around and strode away. Kevin felt that something was wrong, "I think he loves Heidy. Otherwise, he could just tell me that he didn't love her anymore."

On the expressway, Heidy sat in the back seat and looked at the file in her hand. Today, she just came back from a meeting in C City. She was on her way to A city because of a business.

"Boss, the Hua group is getting better and better. Our company's stock price has increased by twenty percent compared with last year," Warren said as he played with his phone.

Raising her head, Heidy chuckled. "Yes. But work has occupied most of my time. Now I'm going to have a big vocation and let Paul deal with the business in company. Otherwise, I will burn out." Hearing this, Warren smiled and said, "Yes, you are right. These days are the busiest time of year for company, but Mr. Paul's wife is in labor so he had to take a few days off and take care of her wife." Leaning against the chair, Heidy closed her eyes. "Yes, it's tiring. It's not easy to be a strong woman."

While they were talking, the driver suddenly said, "Boss, our car has broken down." When he was speaking, the car slowly stopped.

Heidy opened her eyes and asked worriedly, "What happened? Can it be fixed?"

"I don't know what happened. Let me get off the car first and check it," the driver said quickly.

Heidy and Warren got off the car and waited in the emergency lane. Ten minutes later, the car hadn't been fixed yet. Seeing this, Heidy asked anxiously, "What happened? How long will it take? If it go on like that, we will be late."

"Boss, we are running out of time. I've heard that the client values their time a lot. If we are late, I'm afraid we will lose this business," Warren said in a worried tone.

Of course, Heidy was well aware of it. She checked the time repeatedly. Biting her lips, she tried to come up with a solution. Standing there anxiously, she looked nervous. At this moment, a car stopped in front of them slowly. Slowly, window was rolled down and revealed Hearst's cold face. "What's wrong?"

When Heidy saw him, she was stunned for a few seconds before saying, "Our car has broken down. I have to rush back to A city for business."

Hearing her explanation, Hearst said in a low voice, "Get in the car. We are going in the same direction."

Heidy stood rooted on the ground with hesitation. "Boss, we should get in the car now. Otherwise, you will miss the meeting," Warren urged.

After thinking for a while, Heidy nodded and opened the back door. After all, business was the most important thing and Heidy didn't want to make any loss to the company due to her personal affairs.

The car continued to drive on the road. Heidy looked out of the window, and so did Hearst. There was no interaction between them. Assistant Liu took a glance at them and shook his head with resignation. He had no idea why they would end up like like. Just as they were in a stalemate, Assistant Liu suddenly said, "Watch out!"

Then a car in front of them slam the brakes on, and their driver also braked immediately. Seeing that Heidy's body was about to hit the front seat, Hearst put his hand on her forehead quickly.

She didn't get hurt since she touched his hand. "Are you okay?" said Hearst in a low voice.

"I'm fine," Heidy replied with fear in her eyes. She turned to look at the man next to her. When she was about to say something, Assistant Liu shouted again. Before Heidy could figure out what had happened, Hearst held her head in his arms and tried to protect her. He didn't let her go until the car became stable again. "It's okay," said Hearst in a low voice.

She raised her head and looked closely at the man in front of her. Thinking of all of his movements, she felt that he did it subconsciously without thinking. Thinking of this, she felt her heart jolt. "Thank you," Heidy said slowly. "You are used to protect me."

Holding onto the hem of his shirt carefully, Hearst felt a little nervous. He didn't dare to look at her direction, for he was afraid that his slightest changes would be captured by her acute senses. After calming down, Hearst looked at her and said calmly, "Well, I owe you too much. I protect you, because I want to make up for you."

His answer was like a knife stabbing into her heart. With a very faint smile around her lips, Heidy said with a twinge of sadness in her eyes, "I see. You don't owe me anything, and you don't need to make it up either." Then she looked out of the window and bit her lips. Looking at her side face, Hearst had mix feelings. Then he looked away and tried to restrain his emotions. After all, silence was the only choice. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
