Dammit! But he did promise himself he wouldn't do anything with her tonight. Now? What was he thinking? But the sight of her body… it just made him lose his mind.

He returned his attention to the first aid kit as Chan picked up her phone.

"Hello?" she said, her eyes on Sam who now was wrapping a bandage around her ankle. He was firm and made sure the material was on tight.

"Chan! Where the heck are you?" This came from Soriya. "We're so worried; you've been gone so long. We're like a search party here, looking everywhere."

Chan felt guilty for not telling her sisters and friends where she was. "Ah, so sorry. I sprained my ankle."

"What?" Soriya shouted.

Chan grimaced at the loud voice in the phone, causing Sam to chuckle.

"Sister?"

She nodded. Then she wondered how he was able to guess. More importantly, how would he even know she had a sister at all?

Into the phone, she said, "It's okay. I'm okay. Sam's just treating me right now."

"Who the hell is Sam?" her sister demanded. "Oh my God! You're not being kidnapped, are you?"

Chan frowned. "Don't be stupid. I said I sprained my ankle, and Sam is treating me."

"Oh, right, just as long as you're okay. And where the heck are you? We're coming to get you."

Chan looked around her. "I'm in an office. It's on the fortieth floor."

"Fortieth floor?" Soriya repeated.

In the background, Dara said, "Fortieth floor? You can't get access up there. It's for hotel personnel only."

Chan blinked. "Huh? I don't know. I'm just here with Sam on the fortieth floor."

Sam hid a smile as he watched the confused look on Chan's face. God, she was beautiful. He had the sudden urge to pull her into his arms and onto his lap.

Good question, Chan thought and looked to Sam for help.

He smiled and motioned for her to give him the phone. "Hello?" he said. "It's Sam Harrington here."

Sam heard a loud gasp and then, "Holy shit! It's Mr. Harrington."

Sam chuckled. "You can ask either Jayden or Alec to bring you up. They have access."

"Oh my God! Oh my God! My sister is with you. Oh my God!" She squealed in delight.

"Chan is waiting. She's doing fine," he said, eyeing Chandra, who was watching him with large eyes.

Sam Harrington? The Harrington? Chan thought in shocked surprise. The billionaire elite her sisters were talking about only that morning?

"That will be all now," he said, his eyes twinkling as he watched Chan licking her lips.

"We'll be there in a jiffy. Please, Mr. Harrington, look after my sister," Soriya said. "Oh, and please tell her to hold on tight."

Sam laughed. "Sure."

Hold on tight indeed, he thought in amusement. He'd definitely tell her to hold on tight when he made love to her in the near future.

Clearing his throat, he said, "Your sister said they'd be here soon." He handed the phone back to her.

"Thanks," she said, blushing. "So you're Sam Harrington?"

"Is that a problem?" he teased.

Chan shook her head. "No, just that… Jeremy works for you?"

The moment she mentioned Jeremy's name, Sam felt a lump in his throat. He glanced away and paid attention to her sprained ankle instead of answering her question.

"You won't be able to do heavy work for a couple days. I think it's better to get it checked in case you have a bone broken."

The words bone broken got Chan's attention. "You're right," she said. "I'll get it checked Monday."

He nodded and then moved her leg off his lap, rotating her toward the sofa instead. Chan had to rearrange herself, following him. Once in that position, her legs along the full length of the couch and her back resting comfortably, Sam stood. Then he leaned over her and fussed about her as he made her comfortable.

Chan couldn't help but feel like she was someone dear to him under his care. His actions tugged something wonderful and warm in her heart, and she felt this buzz of deliciousness continuously caressing her throughout her body.

"Comfortable?" he asked, placing a cushion behind her back, his face so close to her Chan could feel his warm breath fanning her skin.

She licked her lips again as she nodded.

Her lips and tongue were surely inviting, and damn, it was hard to hold himself back. He was about to lean in farther and do the unthinkable—kiss her senseless—when furious knocks at the door drew his attention.

He sighed and stood up straight. "Must be your sisters and friends."

Chan nodded.

Sam chuckled as he headed over to the door. Upon opening it, he was greeted by a group of concerned females. The two in the lead were the most anxious.

"Where's Chan?" Dara demanded immediately.

Sam took a step back, allowing them to enter. "Inside."

Dara, Soriya, and the rest of Alex's friend filed in. Behind them were both Jayden and Alec.

"What a night, huh?" Jayden said, chuckling.

"Yeah," Sam responded.

It was about a half hour later when Chan found herself in Sam's arms once again in the elevator. With them were Dara and Soriya, while her friends had all gone back to their hotel rooms and retired for the night. They promised to come by her apartment and check up on her tomorrow afternoon.

Why the billionaire Mr. Sam Harrington had to carry her all the way to her car, she wasn't sure. Of course, he had insisted on taking responsibility. It didn't help matters either that both her sisters encouraged the very idea.

The elevator door dinged open at the ground floor, and Sam walked out with her in his arms. Dara and Soriya, both with their bags on their shoulders, walked a few paces behind them.

Chan turned her attention to Sam and said, "Honestly, I can walk, you know. I don't think it's that serious. It's not that swollen anymore. My ankle, I mean."

He flicked his gaze to her and said, "I know it's getting better, but I'm a cautious man, Chan." His expression demanded no argument from her, and Chan shut her mouth.

"He's right, you know," Dara said.

Soriya nodded her head furiously in agreement.

Chan turned her head and glared at her sisters. The two hid giggles and made thumbs-up at her. Chan groaned in vexation.

Sam heard and chuckled. "Are you in pain?" He was teasing, of course. He knew she was frustrated her sisters were going along with his idea gleefully.

They reached the car, and Dara rushed forward and unlocked it. Soriya opened the back door for them, to which Sam said, "Thanks."

Then he proceeded to gently lower Chan into the car and onto the seat within. As he was doing that, their faces were merely an inch apart, and Chan felt her heart pounding in her chest.

"Thanks," she said softly.

Sam gave her a smile and nodded. "Take care."

Chan nodded as Sam took a few steps back.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Harrington," Soriya said.

"Call me Sam."

Soriya giggled. "Sure thing."

Dara chimed in. "Thanks for saving my sister, Sam. You're totally awesome." She even flashed him a lovely smile.

Sam nodded and said, "Drive safely."

With that, the sisters jumped into the car and started driving away.

Sam stood there watching until the vehicle disappeared from sight.
