Female Novel
Chapter 791
James was now alone with Tiara in the living room.
He was unsure of what to say to a pure and innocent young lady like her.
Their previous sexual intercourse was a misunderstanding. Someone had set James up, but in theory,
he should be responsible for her as a man.
However, as there was too much burden on his shoulders, there was nothing he could do.
Any promise he made would be paying lip service. It would only break her heart further down the line.
“Umm… Tiara… Actually, I…”
James looked at Tiara apologetically and said, “I heard about your situation. Though I wish to take
responsibility for my actions, there’s simply too much I have to bear at the moment. Besides, my body’s
in terrible shape. I could die anytime. I also have Thea to consider…”
Hearing this, Tiara lifted her head and cut James short.
“I know, James. I didn’t want to come looking for you, but I can’t suppress my emotions. You’re a
national hero. There isn’t a single woman who doesn’t adore you. I’m not asking for much. I just want to
stay by your side and take care of you. At the very least, I’ll have no regrets.”
James never expected her to say such a thing.
“I feel at ease as long as I can watch you from afar.”
James rubbed his temples exasperatedly.
Silence permeated throughout the living room.
Quincy, who was standing by the door, kept glancing over at James and Tiara. Seeing that they were
now silent, she walked over to them and seated herself.
Looking at James, she asked, “How’s the talk?”
James sighed. “It was a blunder on my part. If I had been more cautious, I wouldn’t have fallen for
Jonathan’s tricks and all of this wouldn’t even have happened. It’s all my fault. Tiara is innocent. I feel
guilty about her.”
Tiara hurriedly waved her hands. “James, I’m not asking you to take responsibility. I-I just want…”
She tried to explain, but the more she explained, the more incoherent she sounded. In fact, she
sounded as if she was forcing James to make a choice.
In truth, she only wanted to stay by his side. Even if she was nothing to him, she would feel at ease asnovelbin
long as she could watch from afar.
That was all she wanted.
Quincy pitied Tiara. After all, she had been through a lot at such a young age. To Quincy, a man and a
woman having sexual intercourse did not mean they had to be together.
“Why don’t you let her stay by your side? After all, your wheelchair’s ready anyway, and you need
someone to push it,” Quincy suggested.
James rolled his eyes. ‘Another stupid idea of hers.’
Thea was now admitted to the hospital. James had promised her he would remarry her.
Since Thea knew who Tiara was, letting Tiara by his side would be a recipe for disaster.
“Th-That’s what I’ve been thinking as well.” Tiara looked at James pleadingly and said, “Please let me
take care of you, James.”
“A-Alright, then.”
James had no other choice but to accept her offer. He was worried that Tiara would do something
extreme if he turned her down.
“It’s time to eat.” Cynthia’s voice came from the dining room.
Hearing this, they got up and headed there.
After having his meal at Cynthia’s place, James went to the hospital. He had allowed Tiara to stay by
his side. Meanwhile, Tiara would be responsible for pushing his wheelchair.
He was currently in a wheelchair, but walking was an easy feat. Still, he planned to remain in the
wheelchair as long as he was outside. This would lull his enemies into a false sense of security. They
would assume that his life was hanging by a thread.
At the military hospital…
Thea stared at the ceiling and daydreamed while lying on her bed.
The moment the door opened and James entered in his wheelchair, her face brightened immediately.
With a delightful smile, she said sweetly, “You’re here, honey.”
“Mhm.” James nodded.
“Wh-who's she?”
Looking at Tiara who was pushing James’ wheelchair, Thea frowned.
Before James could speak, Tiara hurriedly explained, “H-Hello, Thea. My name’s Tiara. I was hired by
James to push his wheelchair.”
