He pulled out a soft, dry towel and tried to dry my hair inside the car.

I thanked him politely and took the towel from him. I dried my clothes and hair the best I could.

However, I managed to wet his car seat.

I looked at the luxurious leather sofa and embarrassingly wiped it as well.

Ken shook his head helplessly. “Take care of yourself first. It’s really worrying.”

When he saw me during the day, he felt that I was like a noble and proud Persian cat.

However, I was homeless like a stray cat now. It was the huge contrast that made him unable to help and feel pity for me.

Although everyone at the party, including Chris, firmly believed that I was a crazy girl who spouted nonsense, he was still willing to lend me a helping hand.

“It’s very late. You have just been discharged from the hospital, and your mobility is limited. However, I’ll give you a sum of money and arrange another nurse for you.” For someone who do not have close relationships with people before, Ken’s arrangement was already very kind and considerate.

However, I was extremely uneasy.

I had nothing, and I could not implicate Uncle Tom who was still in the main residence and cause him to be chased out as well.

If Ken and I were separated, no one would be able to help me!

My eyes reddened at the thought of this, and I blinked my round watery eyes at Ken.

“No, I’m too tired today, and my legs don’t have the strength to stand up. Be a good person till the end and take me away, okay? I swear I will repay you later! Okay?”

Anyway, I knew the plot of this comic book very well, so it would not be a problem for Ken to help me a little.

Perhaps he did not expect me to act coquettishly to him, his ears felt a little hot.

He turned his head, held the steering wheel tightly, and replied in a low voice. “I could only take you to my home.”

I agreed immediately because I believed that Ken was a gentleman, and I did not have any ill intentions towards him, so there would not be any problems even if we lived under the same roof.

However, this optimism only lasted for a while.

Until one day, when I was lying in bed, angrily looking at the man who kept demanding from me, I could not regret it!

..

When I returned to my own home earlier, I was very excited.

The main house was really too luxurious. I was only a doctor in my previous life, so I did not have so much wealth. Hence, I have not seen such a beautiful villa.

However, when I came to Ken’s house, the main house was nothing compared to his home!

Ken’s home was like a castle and there were even large estates around!

It was one thing to know that he was rich in comic books, but it was another thing to see it with my own eyes!

Fountains, swimming pools, open-air balconies, gardens. His home could be said to have everything.

I had a new understanding of the power and wealth that Ken possessed.

It was no wonder that everyone said he was extremely wealthy, and they all flattered him. Proud people like Chris and Grace could not avoid it.

I sighed at Ken. “How could your home be so big? Did you think you are the king?”

Ken was amused by my stunned expression. He lifted me by the waist and carried me down from the car. “It’s alright. Since this is a castle, I will have to invite the princess to visit it.”

“I am not a Princess! How could there be such a wretched and miserable princess like me in this world?”

I felt that my legs seemed to have regained some of their senses. I struggled to jump onto the ground and staggered a few steps in order to not be looked down upon by him.

He caught up and extended his hand to support me.

I did not refuse. I limped along with his help.

Ken arched an eyebrow and wrapped his arm around my waist to take the load off my shoulders. “Not a princess? It looked like you wanted to be the Queen.”

There was a huge castle and a handsome man who could drive all the women in the world crazy. Who would not want to be his Queen?

I bit my lip shyly and tried to console myself that he was joking.
