Chapter 86: Mark Him
Zach didn’t even know whether to laugh or cry at Keira’s expression after his grandmother’s words.
He quickly went inside the room and smiled at his grandmother and said in a jest, "Grandma, stop that. You’re scaring our guest."
Then, he added, "She’s also a patient you know. I will leave for a while and take her back to her room because I’m sure she’ll be scolded by the doctor if she’s found out roaming around like this."
Zach did not wait for his grandmother’s response and quickly pulled Keira outside the room.
"Grandma, don’t worry, I’ll be back," Keira said with a wink as she turned her head to Zach’s grandmother.
"Let’s go before she started to talk because that, for sure, will take forever. Trust me, you’ll be stuck inside the room with her." Zach whispered in her ear. He was pulling her outside by her hand, gently, to not touch her dextrose.
’I don’t mind staying as long as you’re there,’ Keira answered silently.
She pursed her lips and did not voice out her thoughts because she felt a bit nervous due to Zach’s nearness. Her breathing seemed to be not in sync with him.
That was Zach’s impact on her whenever he was near her. She had never felt anything like that to any other man. Even his simple touch was already sending jolts of electricity up her body.
It might sound exaggerated, but the beating of her heart was so loud at that moment, but she hoped that Zach couldn’t hear it.
Finally, they arrived inside her room which was only meters away from Grandpa Shen’s.
