Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149

Josephine stiffened slightly.

No wonder Zachery said this would cancel out all his requests–the favor was indeed a big

one.

She could feel their bodies pressed together, slightly out of alignment.

The man’s belt was digging into her hip bone; if they stayed in this position for long, she’d be uncomfortable.

“Sorry, Dr. Harrison, I already have a girlfriend. And my daughter gets along well with her- she’s already started calling her Mom.”

Josephine gave a faint smile and nodded in agreement.

Dr. Harrison must have liked Zachery a lot. Just moments ago, she had been shy and gentle, but now she suddenly lost control of her emotions and her composure.

“I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it! You’re lying to me, you’re lying… Everyone in the hospital knows, Dr. Maynard, that you keep at least two meters away from any woman. How could you possibly have a girlfriend?”

Zachery replied calmly, “With Josie, I don’t keep two meters away.”

Zachery turned his head to look at Josephine.

They were so close that when Josephine moved just a little, the tip of his sharp nose brushed against the cartilage of her ear.

It was like an electric shock–she couldn’t help but shiver.

Zachery let out a low chuckle, his arm tightening even more around her waist.

Two male doctors joked, “Dr. Maynard isn’t just grabbing a random woman to pretend to be his girlfriend so Dr. Harrison will give up, is he?”

“Exactly, this kind of scene happens in almost every novel.‘

“Dr. Maynard, prove it–give her a kiss.”

The crowd started chanting again, “Kiss her, kiss her…”

Josephine’s brow furrowed ever so slightly. She glanced sideways at Zachery to see what he thought.

Zachery was also watching Josephine, trying to gauge her reaction.

Not only did he not mind being close to Josephine, he actually seemed to be looking forward to something happening.

“Looks like the two of them are a bit embarrassed… Could it be that we guessed right?”

“Dr. Maynard, this is a bit unfair, you know.”

Josephine still owed Zachery a favor, so she figured she might as well help him all the way. Her red lips parted softly: “Dr. Maynard, today, I’ll help you to the

With that, Josephine turned to face Zachery.

She cupped Zachery’s face in her hands.

very end.”

This man took good care of his skin–it felt smooth to the touch, except for his chin, which was a bit rough, as if stubble was just about to break through.

Josephine’s palms were slightly calloused, her fingertips carrying a faint roughness.

She pulled Zachery down, tilted her head up, and pressed her lips to his.

Warm breaths intertwined before their lips could meet.

Their lips drew closer and closer.

Just as they were about to touch, Josephine placed both her thumbs on Zachery’s thin lips.

She kissed her own fingers.

Zachery had hoped Josephine would do something like this, but he never expected she would actually dare to.

He looked incredulous, and as he truly felt Josephine’s breath, his whole body seemed to heat

For two seconds, the surroundings were silent, then erupted in cheers and blessings.

Josephine let go of Zachery and noticed his face was a little red, his eyes seemingly unable to meet hers.

With a laugh in her voice, she smoothed things over: “Your Dr. Maynard is a bit shy.”

In truth, she was forcing herself to stay calm too. After all, in front of so many people, her heart was beating so fast it hardly felt like her own.

Natalia’s hospital room.

After taking her medicine, Natalia wanted some candy and pleaded with Dalton to buy her

some.

At first, Dalton refused, so Natalia started to act cute.

“I’ll just have one, and I’ll split it into three times, only eating it after my medicine, isn’t that okay?”

“Uncle.”

Dalton didn’t respond.
