A Crazy One-night Stand novel Chapter 80

It was already past eight o'clock in the evening after they finished their dinner at the restaurant.

Wilson held Alina's hand tightly as they walked back to the apartment.

After returning to the apartment, Alina said that she was a little tired and needed to rest. Wilson immediately brought her to the door of her bedroom. "Lie down for a while. A doctor will come over later to tend to your wounds."  

Alina immediately refused. "No, there's no need."

She was still feeling apprehensive. On the other hand, she didn't want to expose the wounds on her body. She was kicked on the chest, waist and thigh. Alina felt vulnerable to expose those areas to an unfamiliar person. 

She was slapped several times in the face. Although her cheek was swollen, it was the least serious injury. She would compress the swelling with a hot towel later. After a night's rest, she would feel much better.

Wilson frowned and said in an uncompromising tone, "No, you should let the doctor take a look. Don't worry, it's a female doctor!"

Alina bit her lower lip and finally nodded.

Wilson was satisfied. He reached out and caressed Alina's hair. "Go and rest for a while."

Then, he watched Alina enter the bedroom.

Alina took a shower and laid back on the bed. She stared at the chandelier on the ceiling, her eyes wide open.

She tried to close her eyes, but as soon as she closed them, York's crazed eyes would appear in her mind's eye. She was so frightened that goosebumps appeared on her arms and her forehead was covered with cold sweat. 

After Wilson returned to his room, he went to the study and made a phone call by the window.

First, he called Simon. "Simon, pick two bodyguards with good skills and protect Alina secretly."

When Simon agreed, he reminded him again, "You must ensure Alina's safety and prevent any incidents that may endanger her from happening."

Simon was surprised by his boss's attitude. Had Wilson fallen in love with this woman in less than a month? Didn't he marry her and announce the wedding news in such haste to obtain the shares of Scott Group? Wasn't it because he wanted to go up against Lucas and Colton? Wasn't that the reason why he married her? 

However, Simon did not ask anything.

After hanging up the call to Simon, Wilson called Jayden. "Mr. Jayden, starting tomorrow night, Alina will be learning self-defence from eight o'clock to ten o'clock every night. Free up that period of time for her. You can do whatever you want after that."

Jayden yelled on the phone, "D*mn it, shouldn't we settle the payment first? Eight to ten o'clock in the evening is my precious personal time!" 

"You decide! How much do you want?" Wilson was nonchalant. He knew that Jayden would ask for an exorbitant fee. 

As expected, Jayden didn't hold back. "50 million! I want 50 million dollars!"

"I'll get Simon to transfer the money to your account tomorrow!" Wilson hung up the phone with a smile.

He knew that Jayden was recently a little short on money. Jayden had employed more capable people to work for him, including Susie Morris, who was an intelligence agent working in Metro. 

Jayden yelled at his phone again, "Wilson, you a*shole, you forgot about bros over hoes? I'm your best friend, aren't I? How could you treat me like I'm someone disposable? You even agreed to pay me 50 million for this, how generous you are! F*ck, if I had known that you value your wife so highly, I would have licked her boots!" 

For the third call, Wilson contacted Mr. Bennett. "Mr. Bennett, please clear your schedule for me. Five days later, I would need your help to sort out the distribution of Scott Group's shares."

After calling three people, Wilson returned to the table and leaned back in his chair. He massaged his aching forehead. It would be Grandfather's birthday in a few days. This would be a good opportunity to let Lucas and Colton in on the news. 

After everything was planned, the doorbell rang.

In the monitor, a female doctor was waiting at the entrance of the apartment with a medical bag.

He reached for the remote control and unlocked the entrance for the doctor. After that, he strode out of the room and went downstairs.

When the doctor stepped out of the elevator and entered the living room, Wilson told her, "If she is seriously injured, don't let her know about it. Reassure her, be gentle and use the best medicine available. Let me know where are her injuries and how severe they are. She's in the fourth room on the second floor."

The doctor agreed and went upstairs with her medical bag. Half an hour later, she came down and reported the situation. "There are more than a dozen bruises on her body. I have applied some medication but it will hurt for a while."

"Okay," Wilson replied, indicating that he understood.

After the doctor left, he slowly went upstairs.

It was late at night. 

Alina finally became tired of staring at the chandelier. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

The next morning, Wilson washed up early and went downstairs as usual.

He glanced at the empty dining table and remembered that Linda had been fired. There was no breakfast prepared for them.

He couldn't help but look up to the second floor. Wasn't Alina up at this time? Didn't she get up very early yesterday?

As Wilson thought of this, he stood up and was about to go upstairs to have a look. Then he remembered that she had such a fright yesterday. She probably fell asleep late last night, so he decided to let her sleep for a little longer. Wilson sat down again.

Time trickled by.

It was already eight o'clock, but Alina didn't come downstairs. 

Wilson frowned. At this time, he was already busy working at the company. Today, he took leave because he was worried about Alina. 

He sat down and flipped through the financial magazine in his hand.

Another half an hour passed, but Alina still did not appear. Wilson furrowed his brows and put down the magazine in his hand. He stood up and went to the second floor.

Walking to the door of Alina's bedroom, he raised his hand to knock on the door. However, at the last second, he stopped himself. He couldn't bear to wake her up. 

He simply walked back to his study and called Simon, "Simon, send my documents to the apartment."
