Chapter 384 Love Sacrifice

• Imagining the pain he was in, she didn’t dare to touch him for fear of hurting him. “Does it hurt a lot?” The tears in her nasal voice made Griffon feel distressed, even more than his wounds did. “I took painkillers, and I’m not in pain anymore. Don’t worry, okay?” He suffered great pain on his way from the airport to the manor, but he now felt better after the doctors treated his wounds. Besides, he had suffered a lot of injuries since he was young, and he was able to withstand pain. However, it was exactly because he was too tough and careless with his own life that Taya felt bad for him. She held his hand tightly and cried as she said, “You’re so silly to have risked your life again and again for me.” Everyone said that Griffon loved her so much that he would offer his life to her, and it was indeed the case. However, she didn’t want him to love her so much because she feared that he would truly give up his life for her one day. Seeing her crying like this, Griffon was at a loss. He raised his fingers to wipe her tears off. “Don’t cry. My injuries have nothing to do with you. It’s just that something happened within S.” Taya looked at him with her teary eyes. “Wasn’t Casare the one who hurt you?” “How could he?” After letting out a disdainful snort, Griffon seemed to think of something terrible, and his eyes sparkled with ruthlessness. Seeing the murderous look in his eyes, Taya hurriedly asked who hurt him, but he didn’t tell her for her safety. As he didn’t want to tell her, Taya knew better than to ask any further. However, the shocking slash wounds still distressed her. “How could anyone cruelly slash his back over and over agair with a knife?” “No, Griffon is a tough fighter. How could anyone get near him unless he allowed it?” Stunned by her own thought, Taya felt she could be right, She then looked up at the tight-lipped man with her red-rimmed eyes. “Tell me. Are you in some kind of trouble?” Seeing her imagining things, Griffon quickly tried to soothe her. “There’s nothing I can’t solve. Don’t worry, okay? I’ll take care of everything.” Staring at him for a while, Taya felt he was not lying to her and held his hand to put on her heart. “Griffon, can you love yourself more in the future?” No matter who hurt him this time, she knew if he could love himself a little more, he wouldn’t end up dying for her. Hearing this, Griffon firmly rejected her, “No, you’ll always come first.” In other words, she was more important than himself. Taya was both moved and helpless, “How am I going to make up for this?” Not wanting to see her cry again, Griffon purposely tried to sound playful when he said, “When I get better, let’s have more s*x.” Very sad at first, Taya was dumbfounded to hear what he said. “You’re heavily injured. How could you still have the mood to think about S**?” It was only meant as a joke, but seeing her looking nonplussed as she cried, Griffon’ bloodshot eyes were tinged with lust. He suddenly remembered the time when she cried softly and frantically begged for his mercy when he pressed her on the carpet and made love to her. His Adam’s apple bobbed up and down, and his lower abdomen tightened, but he knew he couldn’t have S** with her now, “If I weren’t injured, you wouldn’t be able to get out of this manor for a few days.” Whenever he saw her, he felt the urge to make love to her day and night. He had no idea why, but he would only be gratified if she gave him her body and soul. Not knowing how to answer him, Taya stared blankly at him for a few seconds, then changed the subject, “Are you thirsty? Would you like some water?” Griffon stopped being playful and nodded, “I’ll ask Andre to bring you back to have a good rest. Don’t worry about me, okay?” Taya knew he didn’t want her to get tired, but she couldn’t leave him knowing that he needed to be taken care of. Taya raised her dainty hand and touched Griffon’ pale face, “I’ll stay here to take care of you so that I could be less worried.” Hearing that she wanted to take care of him, Griffon felt a surge of warmth in his heart. She had never taken care of him before, but… “The pup also needs your care.” “I’ve asked Harper to take care of her for one night, and I’ll bring Grace here tomorrow.” She had arranged everything before rushing here so that she needn’t worry about Grace. As Taya insisted on taking care of him, Griffon budged and called Andre despite feeling weak. “Help me to the bathroom.” Being a clean freak, he couldn’t stand the blood stains on his body. Therefore, not heeding Taya and Andre’s dissuasion, he pulled out the IV needle and insisted on going to clean himself up in the bathroom.
