Chapter 83 Endure for a While

The reason why he had done that was that he could bribe Miriam bit by bit to see what Macey wanted to do.

At Highland Hospital.

“Hello, I want to go in and visit Mr. Mullen. Can I?”

A woman wrapped tightly appeared in front of Rex’s ward.

The bodyguard did not dare to agree easily because of previous experience.

“Well, why don’t you go back first? Mr. Mullen is not in good health and can’t see anyone for the time being.”

“Just several minutes.”

“No, you’d better go back.”

“Come on.”

Just as the two were arguing outside, the door suddenly opened.

“Belen?”

Aaron placed the suit on his arm. He looked at the two in surprise.

“Mr. Mullen! Help me tell him that I want to go in and see Rex.” When she mentioned Rex, she paused unnaturally.

Aaron was stunned for a second and immediately thought of the entanglement between

the two.

“Alright,” He chuckled and patted the bodyguard on the shoulder, and said, “She’s a

friend of Rex. Let her in.”

“Yes, Mr. Mullen.” The bodyguard silently retreated to the side.

Belen snorted and rushed into the ward.

“Mr. Mullen, aren’t you going in?” The bodyguard asked timidly.

Aaron closed the door, lowered his head, and tugged at the wrinkles on his shirt. “No.

I’d better avoid the conversation between them.”

“You’re coming.”

Rex put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at Belen who was dressed in neat clothes with a smile.

He had just heard the subtle noise outside the door, so he asked Aaron to go to have a

look. It was Belen.

“How is it? Seeing that your former defeated opponent is stronger than you now, do you feel unbalanced?”

Belen didn’t fix her eyes on Rex.

“What are you talking about?”

Rex did not avoid it at all and stared straight at her side face.

There was no more talk…

Belen looked out of the window with some embarrassment and kept fiddling with a

ceramic decoration on the corner cabinet.

After a while, Rex opened his mouth to break the silence. “You… do you put on makeup

today?”

Hearing this, Belen immediately rushed to the bed in exasperation, like a child whose

lie had been exposed. “I don’t! It was just that I didn’t rest well last night. I put a thin

layer of powder on my face to improve my complexion. Why would I put on makeup for

you?”

Rex saw through her but didn’t go on.
