Chapter 1039 The Downfall of the Caregiver

Ella trailed his gaze and saw North lying on the sofa. She was wrapped in a quilt, but her face was

visible. It looked soft and tender.

On the other side of the sofa were North’s coat and sweater. Next to the North’s clothes was Raven’s

black coat and business vest.

Ella was startled. She could guess what had just happened here. She slowly looked at Raven. The

lights in the room were dimmed. The window was far away, making it even darker. Raven was standing

by the window. The cold wind was blowing in, making his shirt fly.

Raven did not seem to be bothered by the cold at all. He wiped his trousers pocket with his left hand

and stood on the window sill with a cigarette between his fingers. When he looked up, his Adam’s

apple and collarbone were very distinct. He frowned deeply. One couldn’t tell if he was satisfied or

not.

Ella was stagnant for a while. She never thought that she would see a man like this. He was lazy and

extravagant.

Her face instantly turned pale. Her face was white because she had just cried, and she was also

fascinated by Raven’s appearance.

While Ella was still stunned, Raven stared at her casually. “I’ve already made what I mean clear. Why

don’t you understand?”

He was probably afraid of waking North, so he kept his voice low. Even if such indifferent words came

out of his mouth, they were too warm and magnetic. Ella gritted her teeth and said, “I understand, but

Mr. Domino, you have to give me a reason to leave Los Angeles.”

Raven took a breath and gently exhaled. He slowly drew a line with his thin lips. “Then give me a

reason why you should stay in Los Angeles? What attracted you to me?”

Ella felt her face burning. She knew that he had already seen through her.

What good was Los Angeles? The Mitchell family was now a financial tycoon. She had always lived in

an international metropolis.

There was nothing special about Los Angeles. It was just because of Raven that she wanted to stay.

“Mr. Domino, I admit that I like you. If you let me leave because I like you, isn’t that too harsh? Do you

send all the girls who admire you away from the city?”

Raven was silent for a few seconds. After taking the last two puffs, he raised his legs and bent over to

snuff out the cigarette butt in the ashtray on the table.

“At least they don’t show up in front of my wife, and they don’t mess with her. There are many people

who like me, but they are not as disgusting as you are.

Ella’s pupils shrank. She looked at him in shock. Did e actually say that she was disgusting?

She was the eldest daughter of the Mitchell family and a top student from a prestigious university.

There were many boys who liked her and pursued her.

They were all chasing after her. Ella didn’t expect that Raven would humiliate her that way.

That was the first time he had called her disgusting.

Raven stared at Ella’s pale face and h ooked his lips in a funny way.

“Am I not right? Although you are a famous lady, you have a despicable and careful plan in your bones.

I always wear a wedding ring. Everyone knows me. I’m a married man, but you don’t mind.”

Raven scoffed, and then he continued,

“You think that the challenge of conquering a married man is more passionate and exciting, and it

satisfies your sense of vanity. It’s understandable, but what I don’t understand is that North has. always

regarded you as her sister, but you have taken a fancy to her husband, your brother-in-law.”

“Ella, you’re kinda like me, so there’s no need for you to disguise in front of me. I think you’re running

naked in front of me. It’s ridiculous and funny.”

Ella’s hands and feet were cold. This was the first time she had been humiliated that way.

Ella was at loss for words. She did not expect such a gentle and noble man to be so indifferent.

All of his gentleness and care was given to North alone.

Raven had already walked to North’s side, then he slowly squatted down. Ella did not know what he

was going to do or say next.

She took a deep breath and said, “Raven, in as much as you claim to love North, I know you’ve always

had other women. How about Liliana? Yeah, you see, there’ve been other women in your life.

Therefore, there’ll always be flaws between you and North, and you two will never be perfect.”

With that, Ella turned around and left.

Raven’s ears fell silent. He maintained his posture and did not move. He looked at North’s sleeping

face. He did not know if North had always minded Liliana’s existence.

He did not know what role he had played in North’s m ental illness.

North had been carefully and delicately taken care of, but Raven, who was taking care of her, soon.

couldn’t take it anymore and developed a high fever.

Raven was someone who would not get sick all year round, but when he was sick, his entire body often

collapsed.

North did not go to the crew. She stood beside the bed and touched his forehead with her hand. She

frowned and panicked. “It’s so hot. I’ll take you to the hospital.”

Raven reluctantly opened his eyelids. His throat was so dry that it hurt. He clasped her slender wrist

and said weakly, “Darling, you’re not allowed to go out today, otherwise I won’t be able to find you. I

don’t have to go to the hospital. I’ll just take the medicine and sleep for a while.”

Without him, she would probably be lost when she went out.

When North saw that he was uncomfortable, she felt uncomfortable too. “Okay, I won’t go out.”

She spoke softly. Then she lowered her body and laid her head on his chest gently.

Raven kissed her forehead. When she woke up in the morning, she realized that something was wrong

with his body. She did not expect the high fever to disappear so quickly.
