Fatal Love:CEO, please let me go

Chapter 288 Does This Count As a Work-Related Injury?



That night, some people were affectionate, while others were sleepless at night.

Damon and Adele were placed separately in the bedroom and guest room. Because of the wounds on their bodies, they had to lie on the bed. After the family doctor treated the wounds, they could only maintain this posture for the most difficult night.

In the first half of the night, because of the wounds on her body, Adele was so painful that she almost could not sleep. She endured the torture of her body all the time. In the latter half of the night, she could not resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.

The other person who could not fall asleep like her was Clara. Her heart was occupied by worry and she could not fall asleep even after tossing and turning. She was afraid that Damon would investigate these things and she would really be finished.

Early the next morning, Clara woke up early and immediately got up to wash up. She ordered her subordinates to prepare a car and went to Yusuf Group’s old house.

Before arriving at the old house, she specially went to the nearby shopping mall to buy some valuable gifts, and then rushed over.

After ringing the doorbell, a servant quickly came over. Hearing that it was Miss Ye, he opened the door after reporting to the inside.

As soon as he entered the door, Adele first saw He Shuping sitting at the dining table and drinking tea. Breakfast had just been served and it seemed that she had not moved yet.

“Aunt He, long time no see!”

Clara looked pleasantly surprised. She quickly walked forward and greeted He Shuping.

When He Shuping heard this, she raised her eyes and glanced at her. When she stood up, the corners of her lips also curved up. She went up to greet her. “Clara, long time no see. You have become beautiful again!”

“How can you be as beautiful as Aunt He?” Clara smiled. “I haven’t seen you for a few years and you are even younger. Your skin is still so good. How did you maintain it? It makes me feel a sense of crisis!”

Clara’s few words made He Shuping smile and immediately pulled her to sit down next to him. She ordered the servants to serve tea.

“I haven’t seen you for so many years. I miss you very much. I must have a good reunion this time. By the way, how is your father now?”

He Shuping and Ye Fengpeng were old classmates. The two of them had known each other for many years. Since He Shuping entered the door of Yusuf family, Yusuf family and the Ye family often contacted each other. Because of this, Clara and Damon had known each other for many years and had a close relationship.

But later, Yusuf family developed better and better, and the Ye family was not as good as before. In addition, Yu Qingshan took He Shuping abroad, and the two families were not as close as before.

Now that Yu Qingshan and He Shuping came back, the Ye family had a feeling of climbing up a high branch, so Clara and Ye Fengpeng rushed up like this, afraid that their marriage would not be settled.

“My dad is in good health.”

“Auntie, why don’t I see Uncle and Damon?” Clara casually replied. Her gaze swept across the empty hall and she couldn’t help but ask, “Auntie, why don’t I see Uncle and Damon?”

The moment Damon was mentioned, He Shuping’s expression changed slightly. She moved her lips, wanting to say something but stopping. In the end, she awkwardly tugged at her lips. “Clara, you still don’t know. Damon was punished last night.”

“Ah?” “What’s going on?” Clara stood up and asked in surprise.

He Shuping pretended to be worried and sighed, “Because of a small matter at the company, he was punished by your uncle. He is still injured and probably can’t get out of bed for a while.”

“Where is Damon? I want to see him!” Clara’s eyes turned red.

He Shuping quickly patted her hand and said in a low voice, “He is in the bedroom on the second floor. I will get someone to take you to see him.”

“Okay, thank you, Auntie.”

Clara sobbed. She looked pitiful. It was as if she had just heard the news. The servant led her to the bedroom door on the second floor. She carefully pushed the door open and walked in.

The man was lying naked on the bed. The back of his broad back was completely wrapped in gauze. It could be seen how big the wound on his back was.

Clara’s expression changed and tears welled up in her eyes. She stepped forward and her body trembled slightly. “Damon, are you… alright?”

The person on the bed heard the voice and moved slightly. She turned her head and asked in a hoarse voice, “Why are you here?”

“I…” Clara walked forward with red eyes. “I thought that uncle and aunt were back, so I came over to take a look. I didn’t expect to hear aunt say that you were punished. Damon, it must be very painful…”

She sat down on the side of the bed and looked at the man who could barely move. Tears kept flowing out.

She also did not expect that Damon would suffer such a heavy punishment. The person who should be punished should be Adele!Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

“Alright, stop crying.”

Looking at her crying non-stop, Damon felt inexplicably annoyed. He had not slept for almost a night. There was already a light blue stubble on his chin and his face was tired.

He did not sleep much this night. He did not want to see others crying in front of him the moment he opened his eyes.

“Damon, my heart aches for you…” “If I had known that you were going to be punished, I would have definitely stayed by your side. Seeing the wounds on your body, I couldn’t wait to help you block them…”

Clara cried uncontrollably. Damon frowned and felt a little annoyed.

“Uncle, how can you be so ruthless? It hurts just looking at you…”

Just as she was crying non-stop, he frowned and raised his voice, “Clara, that’s enough!”

The sudden increase in volume startled Clara. She looked at Damon in surprise and whispered, “Damon…”

Damon took a deep breath and said coldly, “Clara, I want to have a good rest. Can you leave first?”

Clara was a little frightened and immediately nodded, “Okay, okay. You have a good rest. I will come back to see you another day.”

As she spoke, she stood up hesitantly, turning back three times with each step as she slowly walked out of the room.

The moment the door closed, Damon secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

He didn’t know what was going on. It was as if he had been punished last night. His patience had been overdrafted. Listening to Clara crying on the side, he was completely agitated.

Moreover, there was another person that appeared in his mind back and forth.

After thinking about it, he still took out his phone and made a call.

It rang a lot. Just when he thought that the other party would not answer it, someone picked it up. The woman’s weak voice came, “Hello?”

Damon’s heart tightened a little. He pretended to be calm and asked, “Are you okay?”

After hesitating for two seconds, Adele whispered, “I’m okay. What about you?”

Damon raised his eyebrows and deliberately said, “I’m not very good.”

This was the first time he was used as a family law. Although he was a man of eight feet, even if he had eight whips, he would not be able to speak.

There was a moment of silence on the other end, and soon a woman’s voice came again, “Then you have a good rest.”

Hearing this, Damon frowned with dissatisfaction, “Just like that?”

“What else can I do? Mr. Yusuf, this is my work injury, right?” Adele asked.

“It doesn’t count,” Damon said deliberately.

Adele, “…”

After a moment of silence, Damon opened his mouth and said in a low voice, “This injury, it’s mine. You should take good care of it.”

Adele was slightly startled and did not react. When she came back to her senses, she asked worriedly, “How are you?”

She had only been whipped twice, but it was already so painful that she almost could not bear it, let alone him.

“Concerned about me?” the man asked.

An unnatural look flashed across her face, and she denied it subconsciously, “No.”

The man seemed to have not heard her denial, and said in a strong tone, “If you care about me, then rest well and come to see me earlier.”

If he had come to see him earlier, perhaps he would not have felt so bad.
