Chapter 545 Only Seen and Touched You

Alex still hadn’t woken up in half an hour.

However, the uncontrollable shivering due to the poison had subsided.

Aletta glanced at him and furrowed her brows. She instructed Vincent solemnly, “Prepare hot water in the bathroom. Alex needs a medicinal bath for about fifteen minutes.”

Vincent immediately followed her orders and supported Alex

into the bathroom.

With these tasks completed, Aletta could finally catch her breath. She turned to Jason and said, “Let’s go downstairs and rest for a while. Once he has finished his bath, we can proceed with the next step of his treatment.”

“All right,” Jason nodded and took her hand as they left the

room.

They settled in the living room, taking a break.

Aletta rested her chin on her hand, continuously observing Jason’s expression.

Not avoiding the directness, Jason chuckled, “What kind of look is that?”

Aletta didn’t beat around the bush and replied directly, “I’m checking if you’re unhappy… but it seems you’re not.”

As she spoke, she leaned in closer, wanting to confirm.

In response to her words, Jason raised an eyebrow, almost imperceptibly, and said, “Am I that petty?” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Aletta murmured after a moment, “At least when it comes to Alex, you’re petty…”

Hearing her sincere response, Jason found himself at a loss for words.

Eventually, he admitted directly, “I used to think that you had to undress him when you were treating him…”

Aletta was taken aback by his words.

Then, a hint of amusement appeared on her face, and she burst into laughter.

“Not all treatments require undressing. It depends on the situation. Undressing is not necessary for Alex’s case.”

As she spoke, Aletta couldn’t help but tease him with a mocking gaze. “What kind of thoughts do you usually have?”

Taking the teasing in stride, Jason leaned closer and whispered, “I usually think about you… You are mine, so I want to possess your gaze, to have it focused solely on me. I don’t want you to exhaust yourself on other men. And I certainly don’t want you to have too much contact with anyone else.”

Caught off guard by this confession, Aletta’s heart skipped a beat.

Her ears turned slightly red, but she still replied honestly, “I am a doctor, there will inevitably be some contact when I was

conducting treatment. However, I always wear gloves during treatment–to avoid direct physical contact. So, I don’t think that counts, does it? As for Alex, I simply treat him as a friend and a patient… I don’t exhaust myself on other men. In this lifetime, I have only seen and touched one person, and that’s you.”

Satisfied with her response, Jason said, “From now on, you can only see and touch me.”

Aletta’s ears grew even redder, and she couldn’t help but smile. “All right, since you have a great figure…”

As they were teasing each other, the sound of footsteps gradually approached.

Aletta quickly composed herself and looked over.

To her surprise, she saw the same lady she had seen in Alex’s room last time!

The lady held a tray in her hands, with two cups of water on it. Her behaviour and demeanour resembled that of a refined young lady.

She swiftly approached Aletta and politely said, “Miss Aletta, Mr. Hill, please have some water…”

With a slight bend of her knees, she placed the cups of water on the coffee table in front of them. Aletta was surprised and she nearly couldn’t control her facial expression.

Wait a minute!

The matter with the Black family has been settled, and with Alex’s arrogant temperament, why is the lady still here?

Hasn’t she been driven away? Wasn’t she a spy?

Aletta was full of doubts, but she didn’t show it directly in front of the lady. Instead, she politely replied, “Thank you.”

The lady smiled friendly at Aletta and said, “You’re welcome.”

Without lingering for too long, she turned around and walked

away.

Aletta watched her figure until she was no longer visible before shifting her gaze back.

She sighed to Jason, “Seeing her up close, I realize that she is truly beautiful. Her delicate little face… She looks young too, probably two or three years younger than me.”

She paused for a moment. “She should be still studying at a university.”‘

Jason didn’t answer after hearing her words.

Aletta turned her head and unexpectedly found that Jason’s gaze was also fixed in the direction the lady had left, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Aletta felt a pang of jealousy.

She lifted Jason’s face with her hand, turning his head toward her, and asked unhappily, “Are you captivated by her?”

Her clear jealousy was evident on her face.

It was the first time that Jason had seen her express her jealousy so directly.

He felt a sense of satisfaction in being possessed by her dominance.

With a smile in his eyes, he replied, “No. The only person that can captivate me in this world is you!”

Seeing Aletta’s disbelief, he explained further, “However, she does indeed have some of your charms… No wonder the elders from the Black family decided to send her to Alex. They knew a lot about the people around him.”

As he spoke, he glanced meaningfully at Aletta…

Aletta paused for a moment, understanding the implication behind Jason’s words, and felt a chill down her spine.

“Are you saying that I, too, was targeted by the elders before?”

Jason’s tone turned slightly cold. “They probably know Alex’s affection for you… Perhaps they even considered using you to threaten Alex!”

Aletta felt a chill running down her back upon hearing this. “So, they gavnovelxo.com fast updatee up because they found out I was with you?”

“Most likely! They wouldn’t dare to provoke the Hill family, so they sent a girl who somewhat resembled you to Alex.“”

His voice turned cold, “They were wise enough not to touch you! Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been as simple as the massacre last night!”

Aletta felt a chill run down her spine as she listened, tightening her grip on Jason’s fingers.

She realized that an invisible danger had been lurking beside her without her knowledge.

Jason sensed her fear from his words and reached out to embrace her, comforting her in a gentle voice, “Don’t be afraid. From now on, I will protect you.”

“Okay!” Aletta found solace in his warmth, she barely managed to calm herself.
