Billionaire Defiant Wife

Chapter 849: Do You Want My Help?

Erin sensed the tension in the air. It was the first time she saw James looked so aggressive and ferocious. He looked as if he would tear her apart in any seconds.

"James..." Erin's voice was trembling. She knew Jessica's life was hanging by a thread because she was bitten by a poisonous snake. That was why James was furious.

But Erin knew she regretted nothing.

She wished Jessica would drop dead at the second!

With the thought in mind, Erin looked more vicious. But she let James see her tender side, "James, Ah..."

She was about to say something when James used more force. He almost forced her down on the ground.

James didn't want to give her any chance, saying harshly, "Your friend must enjoy being a military whore at the border. Would you like to keep her company?"

Erin looked at her with amazement, "How dare you! James, if you make you a military whore, I'll make you lose fortune and name!"

James sneered and looked at the bodyguard. Trained security knew what to do. They walked forward to take Erin out, leaving her screaming and swearing in the air.

After Erin was taken away, the bodyguard asked, "Sir, what should we do about Miss Caitan?'

James waved with hesitation, and the bodyguard left the room.

The cigarette was almost done lightening. James didn't realize the fire approached his fingers until he heard some noise.

"Mr. Moore."

James looked up, and it was a bald, middle-aged man.

"Fuck off!"

James would not give the man a second look.

The man said, "Sir, I'm here to deliver medicine."

"What medicine?" James lifted up his eyebrows.

The man said, "An old lady asked me to deliver a bunch of stuff. She asked us to boil them with high temperature for over three hours, and put them in buckets to be sent here."

James was still confused as to what the old lady was trying to do. Then he heard someone calling from the bedroom, "Move it in here!"

James turned around, and the old lady stood there, looking timid, explaining, "Miss Clifford needs those medicine."

Then James turned around and walked to the bedroom. He grabbed the old lady by her collar, asking, "How's she doing?"

The old lady couldn't help trembling, saying, "I am not sure yet. It depends on how the medicine works."

James didn't ask more and charged over in the bedroom.

He came to Jessica's bed and looked at her. Her face was pale, and her eyes were close. He had a bad feeling and felt his brain buzzing.

James reached out to Jessica with shaking hands. He tried to touch her face. But he didn't have the courage.

At last, James grabbed Jessica's shoulders, roaring, "Jessica, open your eyes! I have told you I do not allow you to die! I won't! Won't! Won't!"

Then James held Jessica in his arms and started roaring.

"Ahem...if you don't let me go, I'm gonna die."

James felt his stiff back, hearing Jessica's weak voice. He turned sullen and cold.

James pushed Jessica away and asked, "Are you trying to make a fool of me?"

Jessica was speechless.

She didn't have the time to mess with James. She was sleeping, and James came in and started yelling. He said, "won't" a lot of times and shook her so hard that her brain hurt.

But she didn't die, Jessica thought.

The old lady looked at James with amazement at the entrance of the door. She swallowed saliva so hard when James looked back at her. She felt James would kill her at any time.

The bald man came in asking others to carry the big wood buckets. Then they poured the medicine from the thermos and into the wood buckets.

Another four furnaces were carried in the bedroom with pots on each one.

Nobody seemed to understand what was going on.

The old lady mustered up the courage and looked back at James's murderous look and approached him and said, "Miss Clifford, please take a bath in the bucket."

James asked with uncertainty, "Are you sure it will work?"

The old lady was terrified James would kill her out of a fit of rage. She answered instantly, "I've eased her acupoints. But she needs to take a medical bath in case anything harmful still resides in her body. And soaking in the medical soup will be good for her wounds."

The old lady looked like a talent hidden among the general population. Her wisdom didn't seem to match her look.

Ease the acupoints?

James was impressed by the old lady. He didn't trust her at first because he had rounded the best doctors in B Country.

But seeing Jessica was still alive, James became slightly relaxed.

James picked up Jessica and entered the bathroom. What they smelt first was pungent medicine. They started sweating crazily.

Inside the room was a big wood bucket with medicine soup that has been boiling for almost five hours. On the surrounding four furnaces were also the medicine that was made according to the old woman's prescription. The most important of all was the old lady turned the temperature in the room above 40 degrees celsius.

The bathroom was like a sauna room closed uptight.

James closed the door and tried the temperature of the water in wooden buckets. Then he slowly put her inside it. Jessica hummed out of horror because she was suddenly put in hot water.

James said, "Don't worry. I'm here."

James's firm voice was of considerable comfort to Jessica.

Jessica looked at James, and his eyebrows were locked and looked serious.

Jessica wondered if James was worried about her.

Jessica felt warm in her heart. She thought about how James cried for her. She recalled she once heard the saying that does not miss the man who would cry for you.

James squatted in the wooden bucket, and the water was just above her neck. Her hair was floating in the water, making her skin more fresh and tender.

James moved his throat and took off her bathrobe. Soon Jessica's body turned red, and her cheek got burning hot. There was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.

After settling down, James bent over and said next to Jessica's ears, saying, "Do you want my help, or do you want to do it yourself?"

Jessica turned blushed and held her hands against James's chest, saying, "You get out of here. I'll take a shower on my own."

James smiled and approached her to kiss her cheek, saying, "You're about to marry me. Isn't it time to stop being so shy?"

Jessica turned more blushed. Her cheek was so red. She said, "I didn't say I was gonna marry you."

"Are you gonna take back your own words?" James picked up her hand, saying, "You've received my ring. Isn't it a bit late to regret?"

"I thought I was gonna die..." Jessica regretted her decision so much. What kind of proposal was this, she wondered. It was in such a hurry that she didn't have the time to feel it properly.

James stared at Jessica passionately, saying, "We can live every day like it was the last day of our life. I'll spoil you every day like it is the last day we ever live. Then, will you fall in love with me?"
