Chapter 882 I Didn't Protect You Well Enough
Jimmy brought Anna directly to his private apartment and carried her into his room, gently takingher into the bathroom.
Watching Jimmy, who was considerate enough to run a bath for her, Anna felt warm inside and aninexplicable sense of security instantly arose.
"I... I can do it myself."
Anna who had calmed down took the towel prepared by Jimmy and whispered that she was moreaware of her own disheveled appearance than anyone else.
"Really?" Jimmy asked with some unease.
Anna nodded earnestly.
"Don't worry. I'm fine now."
Upon hearing her assurance, Jimmy finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, he still kindly tendedto Anna's injured foot before turning and leaving the bathroom.
While Anna was taking a shower, Jimmy went to the study and dialed Randall's phone number.
The phone was quickly answered, and Randall's report rang clearly in his ear.
"Already sent someone to beat Gavyn."
Jimmy nodded in satisfaction at such a result.
"Send him to Urghgow to do labor immediately. I don't want to see him in the country." Jimmyordered again, still trying to retaliate against Gavyn.
"This..." Randall was a bit surprised. "Sir, he is Miss Miller's older brother after all. They are relatedby blood. Are you really going to send him to Urghgow? The environment there is very harsh and hemay not be able to handle it. If anything goes wrong, Miss Miller may blame you."
" Randall whispered.
A cold and chilling smirk appeared on Jimmy's devilishly handsome face, sending shivers downone's spine.
"It's already his fortune that I don't ask anyone to get him killed. Do as I say."
Hearing that, Randall dared not to have any further objections. After hanging up the phone, hebegan to handle the matter of sending Gavyn to Urghgow as a laborer.
Jimmy went to the kitchen and personally brewed a cup of ginger tea to warm up Anna. He alsocooked some plain porridge before returning to his room.
Half an hour later, Anna walked out of the bathroom with her soft hair still dripping water. Jimmyshook his head and took out a hair dryer.
"If you don't dry your hair, you'll get sick."
Jimmy gently helped Anna sit in the chair and carefully blew her hair, his serious expression fillingAnna's heart with a warm feeling.
She didn't have any sleepwear, so she was wearing Jimmy's white shirt, with her long, slender legsexuding an irresistible allure and sensuality. It constantly tested Jimmy's once-proud self-control.
He took a deep breath and placed the plain porridge and some small dishes he had cooked in frontof Anna.
"Eating a little bit more can warm the stomach."
Anna was deeply moved, she never thought that one day a man would personally cook for her, hersparkling eyes shining with stars.
"Thank you. If it weren't for you, I... I would really have fallen apart."
Anna lifted her head and looked at Jimmy with sincerity, a sweet smile playing on her lips.
Jimmy gently kissed her forehead and spoke in a deep, slow voice, "It's because I didn't protect youwell enough that the beast had the opportunity to harm you."
When mentioning Gavyn, there was a fierce gleam mixed with a hint of killing intent in Jimmy'seyes.
Though he almost did something that would have caused me unbearable pain, after all, he is myelder brother, the son that my mother loves dearly.
Anna let out a soft sigh and pursed her red lips. "What... what did you do to him?"
Jimmy served a bowl of plain porridge and placed it in front of Anna.
"I sent someone to beat him and sent him abroad to work as a laborer, and he had no chance toreturn home in a short period of time." Jimmy didn't hide what happened to Gavyn.
Anna had no objections to such punishment, and sincerely hoped that the beast could be reformedduring this time.
I just can't help but think about whether my mother would be able to handle such a result if sheknew, after all...
After all, in her heart, the eldest brother will always be her precious baby.
Jimmy didn't want to see Anna's sad face, and he curled his index finger slightly before stroking herslightly blushed face.
"This is my private apartment. Your mother needs to take care of your father in the hospital, and Iam worried about leaving you alone in your apartment. So, you will stay here for a while until yourfather recovers and is discharged from the hospital. Then, I will send you back home."
Anna was a bit surprised and couldn't help feeling a little shy at the thought of starting to "livetogether" with Jimmy in this way.novelbin
"If you need anything, you can tell me directly, and I'll buy them for you."
Anna nodded, a happy smile on her lips.
After dinner, Jimmy carried Anna to bed. As he went to wash up, Anna looked around the room.Though it was simple, it felt very comfortable.
Thinking about sharing a bed with Jimmy made her feel unsure and awkward. It wasn't their firstintimacy, but she still didn't know what she could do and felt like running away.
Jimmy quickly came out of the bathroom. Seeing his impeccable physique made Anna's face evenredder as she felt her heart beating faster.
With ease, Jimmy walked over to the bed and said, "It's getting late. Let's sleep."
Anna sat there, feeling restless and uncertain while holding onto the corner of the blanket tightly.Jimmy knew she was shy and smiled lovingly at her.
"Let's just chat under the covers," he said in a few short words that put Anna at ease.
She lay down next to him blushing with shyness while he held her tightly in his arms with theirfingers intertwined.
Anna could feel herself being completely enveloped by Jimmy's breaths as if they were surroundingher entirely. She thought that she wouldn't be able to sleep all night until dawn broke but foundherself sleeping soundly in his embrace instead.
Only when hearing Anna's steady breathing did Jimmy open his eyes gently before kissing Anna'scheek softly.

"My Anna, I promise you won't ever be hurt again – never."
