Chapter 614
Carrie shook her head, her heart beating out of her chest.
“I-I got it. I’ll only be like this with you. Don’t be mad, okay?”
Ryan had been nothing but nice to her for the past few days. He bought her lots of pretty clothes, which Bethany normally wore.
Carrie
did not own nice clothes before.
The food there was delicious. Although Bella’s cooking was better,
the food was still delicious.
Ryan would also blow her hair dry, feed her, and sleep in the same
bed as her.
They were just sharing a bed.
Ryan pampered and doted on her. She would be so ungrateful if she
made him angry.
“Good girl.”
Her bright, dewy eyes tempted Ryan to kiss her. Struck by a thought,
he wanted to slap himself in remorse.
He wondered if he was grooming her.
However, Ryan really hoped Carrie could stay by his side.
His heart dropped when he imagined her marrying someone else and
being in someone else’s arms.
He could not bear the thought of her kissing another man and bearing
his child.
“I need you here, Mr. Hoffman.” Yasmin took a call and called him
over.
“Alright.”
Ryan went to Yasmin. “What’s up?”
Yasmin glanced at Carrie before speaking in hushed tones, “I got a call from lan, Mr. Salvador’s secretary. He said Mr.
Salvador’s injury
has gotten worse.”
“What did you say?” Dismayed, Ryan did not watch his tone.
Carrie looked at them with a confused look.
“lan did not give me the specifics. He said that Mr. Salvador is focused on his recovery at his private villa, and no one knows
about it. lan couldn’t stand it and contacted me in secret. He hopes you can
visit him.”
“I got it. Bring the car around, Yasmin. We’ll leave now.”
Not wanting Carrie to worry, Ryan did not say a word about Justin’s injury to her. He simply told her that he had business to take
care of and might not be home tonight. Carrie should go ahead and go to bed.
at the usual time.
“I’ll wait for you to come home. I’ll sleep when you’re back.” Carrie
walked him to the door.
Though she did not make her feelings known, her reluctance was
written all over her face.

Feeling warm and cozy inside, Ryan smiled at her and instructed the helper, Fiona. “Take good care of Ms. Salvador.”
Minutes after Ryan’s ride left, the three fancy cars that were supposed to escort Zoe back to the Hoffmans’ residence showed up
at the gates.
“This is the place, Ms. Hoffman,” Adam muttered.
“My brother sure is generous to the dimwit bitch. Is that house supposed to be their marital home?” Zoe stared at the beautiful
white
walls and green roof while shaking in rage.
“Don’t be mad, Ms. Hoffman. It’s known across Savrow what type of
man Mr. Hoffman is.”
Adam consoled Zoe, “Mr. Hoffman will never be sincere with any woman. I have observed him in the last few years. It’s all
novelty with Ms. Carrie. He will be bored soon enough.”
“What do you know? It’s different this time. He’s my brother. I can tell
it’s different.”
Zoe’s face was flushed. “Carrie has my brother wrapped around her finger. He had been with too many pretty girls, and now he
finds the idiot refreshing. It’s like he’s been hexed. Isn’t he afraid that his child. with the dimwit will be handicapped too? It will
ruin the Hoffmans’
great genes.”
Adam dared not say a word.
