Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband ( Cora Lane ) - Season 9 Episode 69

Hearing Georgia’s words, Efren stopped in his tracks.

He turned around with a flicker of hope in his eyes.

Cora seized the opportunity to excuse herself with a laugh. “Oh, dear, I think I left the soup on the stove! I’ll let you two talk.”

Seeing Cora scurrying for the door, Georgia scoffed in exasperation.

“Really, Auntie? You can’t even make your excuses believable. Making soup? You?”

But no matter how Georgia grumbled, Cora was already long gone in a flash. Now it was just awkward for Georgia and Efren to be left alone together.

Georgia was far from grateful for this forced privacy.

When someone else was around, she felt that she could still argue with Efren to some extent.

But now, alone with her ex, she felt totally lost for words.

The silence stretched on until Efren finally broke it by gently asking “Georgia, how are you feeling? Are you in any pain?”

“Isn’t that obvious? My grandma specially put together a professional medical team for me because of this incident. They examine every mole on my b*dy repeatedly, not to mention Georgia wanted to speak calmly too but didn’t know why her tone came out so irritable.Yet no matter what she said, Efren remained very patient and good-tempered.

“Mm, they’re just being responsible for your health. Just cooperate with the checkups obediently.”

“Of course, I know to cooperate with checkups, isn’t that Captain Obvious?”

The more Georgia spoke, the more she felt she was being rude, annoying herself so much that she simply fl*pped off the blanket and burrowed into the bedding.

Thinking she was still angry at him, Efren didn’t make much of it.

Efren was just happy that Georgia was willing to be in the same space as him now. He didn’t need anything more than that.

So he just helped Georgia unwrap the chicken wings and asked her, “Didn’t you keep yelling about wanting chicken wings?

Hurry up and eat while they’re hot.”

But Georgia ignored him and curled up into a ball.

“Georgia?”

Efren called her name anxiously.

He lifted the covers and saw her crying quietly.

He reached out to hug her, but she pulled away from him.

Heartbroken, Efren sighed. “Okay, I’ll leave you alone. Please don’t cry…”His voice remained gentle and soothing as he spoke.

Georgia thought he must be joking.

Only when she heard the door opening did she realize he wasn’t kidding.

She hurriedly flung off the covers, but one of Efren’s legs was already stepping out of the room.

At this, her tears burst forth as her sobs grew louder and louder.

And once more her b*dy acted against reason, suddenly bolting from the bed and running towards Efren.

Hearing her increasingly hysterical cries, Efren worried something was wrong and quickly turned back to check on her.

But the moment he turned, she threw herself into his arms.

“Georgia?”

Efren looked at her in shock, then in joy and tenderness. But most of all, in delight at having her back in his embrace…
