Chapter 113 Catching a cold because of you
Last night?
What had happened last night?
Nora looked at Asher warily and rubbed her temples as her consciousness gradually came back together.
She remembered that last night, she had met Nana for a drink at a bar where she had met Sam, the gangster, and had been drugged.
Later, Asher had unexpectedly appeared to take her away, and she remembered that it was at that time that she had lost consciousness after her body had burned badly.
In her fuzzy memory, she seemed to have done something inappropriate with Asher.
When Nora thought of this, she nervously checked herself.
Luckily, nothing was wrong.
Nora was still a bit uneasy and asked, "You didn't do anything to me last night, did you?"
Seeing the woman's nervous look, Asher raised an eyebrow as he said, "Why? Do you expect me to do something?"
"I didn't!" Nora glared at Asher.
Nora secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was glad that she had met Asher last night and that he was quite a decent man.
Otherwise, she would have been in real danger last night.
Just at this moment, Asher suddenly coughed.
"What's wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?" Nora asked with confusion.
Asher cleared her throat, "I have a cold."
"You have a cold?" Nora was a little worried, "Why did you catch a cold suddenly?"
As far as she knew, Asher had always been in great health. He had been fine yesterday, but how could he have caught a cold all of a sudden?
Asher gave Nora a deep look and said meaningfully, "It's all because of you."
If it wasn't for this woman being drugged and clinging to him last night, how would he have taken a cold shower and caught a cold?
"Because of me?" Nora was surprised.
Even if she was intelligent, she couldn't figure out what Asher's illness had to do with her.
While eating breakfast, Nora habitually read the news on her phone and was suddenly attracted by a piece of news.
[Special report: Last night, the police turned out in force and arrested a gang who threatened public safety.]
The picture showed a few of the people who had been pestering Nora at the bar last night, headed by Sam.
Nora put down her phone and her eyes fell on the man sitting across from her who was elegantly eating his breakfast, "Sam was arrested. Was it you who did it?"
"Or what?" Asher put down his chopsticks in his hands and asked rhetorically with a smile.
"Well done! Scum like him should have been arrested a long time ago before he wreaks havoc on more women." Nora nodded appreciatively.
Asher narrowed his eyes and said in a sullen tone, "I don't care if it was someone else, but he was risking his neck by trying to hurt my woman."
Asher's woman...
Nora was speechless. She was all by herself and belonged to no one.
After breakfast, the two went to the Hawn Group.
Along the way, Nora heard Asher cough a few times every now and then.
Although Nora did not understand why Asher said he had a cold because of her, she went to the drugstore to buy a bottle of cold medication during her break.
After all, it was Asher who had saved her last night.
The president's office.
Clark knocked on the door.
"Come in!" Asher said in a clear voice.
Clark pushed the door open, walked up to Asher, and respectfully reported to him, "Mr. Hawn, we found the person who sent the money to Ivan Ward."
"Who is it?" Asher put down the file in his hand and raised his eyes as he asked.
Clark handed the documents to Asher, "The money was transferred from an invalid account to Ivan Ward. We pursued it further and found that it was an Australian purse company called 'DAYANG' that had been written off."
"What about the legal representative?" Asher asked in a low voice.
Clark was somewhat helpless, "It was an Australian farmer who didn't know a thing about it."
"Keep checking." Asher said in a cold voice.
This matter seemed to be getting more and more complicated.
Who was the one behind Ivan Ward?
Was Ivan Ward's death really just an accident?
Just at this time, Nora came over with the cold medication. She saw that the door of the president's office was unlocked, so she reached out and knocked on the door.
"Come in." Seeing the beautiful figure at the door, Asher's voice, which was always cold, softened a bit.
Seeing Nora come over, Clark said perceptively, "Mr. Hawn, I'll go back to work."
Asher nodded lightly.
Clark turned around and walked out of the president's office and thoughtfully closed the door behind him.
"Nora, have you ever heard of 'DAYANG'?" Asher asked.
"'DAYANG'? What is it? The name of a person? The name of a place?" Nora was confused and searched around in her head to make sure she had never heard of any 'DAYANG'.
Asher gave Nora a rundown of what Clark had investigated, "I'll have him continue to pursue it."
Nora nodded. There was indeed something weird about this.
Who was behind this and what was the purpose of this person?
"Are you looking for me?" Asher's magnetic voice interrupted Nora's thoughts.
Nora came back to her senses and handed the cold medication to Asher, "This medicine works fairly well. You should try it."
"It does?" Asher took the medicine with his large and slender hands.
When his fingertips touched Nora's warm palm, he held his breath.
Nora's tantalizing looks in the car last night inexplicably popped up in his mind again.
Asher closed his eyes and said lightly, "The medicine is too bitter for me unless..."
"Unless what?" Nora felt puzzled. How could anyone be sick and refuse to take medicine?
Asher looked at the woman in front of him with a faint smile and said in a low and deep voice, "Unless you feed it to me."
"Asher, don't push your luck!" Nora glared at him unkindly.
She had been kind enough to buy him medicine. He could dream if he wanted her to feed him.
Asher pretended to be aggrieved, "Is this how you treat your savior? If it wasn't for me last night, you would have been taken away by Sam."
Nora was helpless. This man had always been aloof and proud but was now acting pitiful to her?
Well...
He had indeed saved her last night.
Nora took a pill and put it in Asher's mouth, "Today is a special case. I won't do it again."
Asher compressed his lips and gently nibbled on Nora's finger.
This action was extremely flirtatious.
Nora blushed and gasped. She pulled her finger out and said in annoyance, "Asher, are you a dog? How could you bite me?"
Asher stared at her with deep eyes and said in a husky voice, "Nora, there are still two months left."
Nora was stunned, "What are you talking about?"
"If I can make you fall in love with me in two months, can you stay?" Complex emotions surged in Asher's dark eyes.
