NovelOnlineChapter 1595:
With Jacob's fiery temper, Lawrence could easily picture him tearing him apart—and then patching him up
afterward.
“He’s in the room on the third floor, far right,” Kristian said, leaving the decision to Lawrence. “Think it through.”
“Hold on,” Lawrence called out, his mind made up.
Kristian stopped and turned back.
Lawrence peeled off the bandages and slid out of bed. “Thanks for helpingout.”
“NO problem—just pay the bill,” Kristian replied with a shrug as he walked away.
Lawrence didn’t say another word.

Jacob was hunched over papers, carefully reviewing Lawrence's condition to ensure the surgery would go

A soft knock tapped on the door.
Thinking it was Kristian, Jacob didn’t look up. “Cin,” he said, his voice low.

caught in his throat.
Jacob, still absorbed in his work, asked, “Need something?”

“There was no car accident,” Lawrence said, pulling a chair close and sitting down. He grabbed Jacob’s hands,
fearing that he might get punched. “I just wanted you to see how you feel.”
Jacob's face turned to stone. The hands holding his were warm, real. This was Lawrence, no doubt about it.

“Was this a gto you?” Jacob’s voice was icy, his usually warm eyes now sharp and cold.
Lawrence's shoulders slumped. “No, it wasn’t fun at all,” he admitted.
Jacob shot to his feet.
