Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother
Chapter 439

"Wait for me. I want to go with you. Since she saved you, it's no different than her saving me. I should appreciate her and take care of her with you."

I broke out of Colin's arms, got out of bed, and dashed to the bathroom. "Just wait a moment, Colin! I'll be there right away!"

Worried he wouldn't wait for me, I let him sit on the bed. Then, I hurriedly carried a change of clothes before running to the bathroom.

By the time I finished washing up and changing my clothes, Colin had already tidied the bed. He was standing by the window, waiting for me. He held a cigarette and stared into the distance, motionless, as if full of thoughts.

I suddenly became depressed. After the mudslide incident, Colin became a little different. What caused his sadness? Was his change due to that woman's injury?

"Let's go, Colin."

He turned his head when he heard my voice. The worry in his eyes instantly disappeared, leaving only tenderness.

"I can go there by myself. There are several nice attractions in Lagado. You can hang out with Felix and your friends."

I pouted and couldn't help but wonder whether he was serious. Didn't he realize Felix and I were currently incompatible?

Obviously, Colin didn't want me to go to the hospital. Whatever the reason, I must go along. He couldn't stop me.

"Colin, you're the most attractive. Nothing else can attract me. Just bring me along." I tried to flatter him as much as possible. All I wanted was for him to take me along. "Fine. Let's go together."

He held my hand without hesitation and put my phone in my bag. He then picked it up and brought me out.

When he opened the door, he saw three people standing outside. Felix was the one in front. His hand stopped in the air as if he intended to knock on the door but didn't expect it to open. His expression slightly darkened as he saw us walk out together.

"Colin, you are going out so early? You've been trapped for two days. You should rest more to avoid any illnesses."

Uncle Austin squeezed to the front. He didn't look surprised when I came out of the room. All his thoughts were on Colin's physical condition.

"I'm fine, Dad."

"Are you sure? Your mom just called. She wanted me to tell you to take good care of yourself. It's best to have a thorough body checkup. Don't think you're still young and can neglect your health. You'll suffer in the future."

"Yes, I understand, Dad. I know myself well. I'm heading to the hospital to visit a friend. I'll try to return to rest in the afternoon."

"Who are you going to visit? The woman you held yesterday?" Felix frowned and interrupted. He looked indifferent.

Colin glanced at him sideways, and his tone was unpleasant. "What do you want to say?"

Ever since the incident of Felix pretending to be disabled, their relationship had become much colder.

Felix snorted coldly and stepped aside to make a way. "I just wanted to remind you of the promise you made. Don't break it. What I said wasn't a joke."

I couldn't understand what they were talking about. It sounded like it was relevant to me.

"Dad, we'll go first." Colin ignored Felix, took my hand, and walked past him.

Winston took a step forward and looked at me, obviously having something to say.

"What's the matter, Winston?" I asked him.

He caught up with me and walked beside me. "Professor King mentioned there were some changes in the project. It's urgent. He had booked an afternoon flight and asked me to notify you to go back together. "Professor King didn't tell me that. Which project is it?"

"He said that you're aware of this. It appears to be design-related. The person in charge wishes to meet with you."

Professor King didn't come to me but conveyed his message through Winston. It was strange.

"Professor King said he had contacted you, but you didn't respond."

I checked my phone and found that Professor King had sent me a brief WhatsApp message half an hour earlier. He told me to return in the afternoon. "What time is the flight?"
