Chapter 33 Eyes Filled with Burning Fire
When Mayra and a few others arrived in the town of Esmary, it was already 10 o’clock at night.
The local officials took them to a high–end guesthouse, where the architecture had a traditional style and looked very luxurious. They were told that it was specifically designed to accommodate VIPs.
Mayra and. Colten’s room was just across the hall.
Colten sat in his wheelchair, and as the person in charge spoke to him, their voice trembled. They were so overwhelmed by his presence that they couldn’t lift their head. Finally, summoning up the courage, they managed
to utter a sentence.
“I will take Mr. Colten around tomorrow morning.”
Colten nodded, and the leader wiped the sweat off his forehead before quickly leaving.
Jared’s room was a bit far from here, and he was a little unhappy when he found out that the two of them lived across the hall, but he didn’t dare say anything.
There were only Mayra and Colten left here, and Mayra opened the door for him.
“Mr. Colten, then you rested.”
Colten’s appearance, no matter when it was observed, was always stunning.
He nodded and closed the door of the room.

Mayra finished washing her hair and taking a shower in the room, only to realize that the hairdryer here was broken. It was already 11 o’clock now, and the VIP room was ten minutes away from the front desk. She was too lazy to go and find the front desk, so she had no choice but to knock on Colten’s door.
The door was opened, and Colten appeared to have just finished taking a shower, with wet hair.
When his hair hung down, his whole presence weakened significantly.
Mayra had seen him like this before, but her heart still skipped a beat.
He was wearing a black robe, looking very cold, with his lips slightly pale.
“Mr. Colten, the hairdryer in my room was broken. Can I borrow yours? Do you need it?”
He shook his head and coughed twice.
After Mayra got the hairdryer, she wanted to go back to her room, but she heard him cough a few times, so she asked, “Are you catching a cold? I brought some cold medicine; do you want to take some?”
I thought he would refuse, but he instead maneuvered the wheelchair and followed behind her, arriving at her room.
Mayra pointed to her bag and said, “The medicine is inside. I will go and pour you some water.”
She found a bottle of mineral water in the room and handed it to him after opening it.
Then she went to the bathroom to blow dry her hair.
Colten swallowed the white pill in his hand and glanced outside through
1443
Chapter 33 Eyes Filled with Burning Fire
the window.
This homestay was very beautiful, with antique designs everywhere. The view from each window was different, like an ancient courtyard.
Mayra finished blow–drying her hair and realized he was still there, so she quickly coiled up the cord of the hairdryer.
“Mr. Colten, were you also going to blow–dry your hair?”
But Colten didn’t say anything, his whole body was tense, as if he was trying hard to endure something.
Mayra walked quickly towards him and only then did she notice that his cheeks were red, sweat was dripping down his forehead, tracing a path along his sharp face.
She glanced at the pills on the bedsheet and her heart skipped a beat. Those were the ones Reese had given her that day. She had casually stuffed them into her bag, mixed up with cold medicine.
Mayra’s scalp felt a little numb, so she raised her hand and tentatively touched Colten’s forehead, which was burning hot.
He not only had a fever, but also took this medicine.
If Jared found out, she would never be able to clear her name!
“Mr. Colten, I went to find the doctor!”
Just as the words fell, there was suddenly a commotion outside the window, like the sound of footsteps, and the sound of people talking.
“Colten used to live here.”
“Let’s go, I heard he was staying alone tonight.”

“Hurry up, don’t let others find out.”
Mayra was surprised and almost instinctively pushed Colten into the
bathroom.
She turned the water in the bathroom showerhead to the maximum and saw Colten himself with his eyes closed, his long eyelashes trembling slightly.
“Mr. Colten, who are these people?”
Because she was afraid that people outside would hear, she spoke very close to him, with her breath spraying in his ear.
Colten’s eyelashes trembled, and he slowly pushed her away, “It should
have been the Mortons.”
After Colten became disabled in both legs, he had many people watching him, and his brothers were not to be underestimated.
Although his whereabouts were so well concealed this time, they were still discovered by someone.
Mayra saw the patience on his face and the sweat flowing down his collarbone, and she knew how powerful the medicine was.
She was really worried that she would be fired soon, so she actually made her immediate supervisor take this medicine while he had a cold.
She opened the new towel beside her, dipped it in cold water, and applied. it to Colten’s face.
“You endured.”
Just as he finished speaking, Colten slowly opened his eyes. The sharpness that was once present in him completely vanished. His eyelashes were wet, and there was a burning fire in his eyes, as if he
1443
Chapter 11 Eyes Filled with Burning Fire
wanted to ignite everything.
Mayra was caught by such a gaze, she averted her eyes and quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, this medicine was placed by someone else.”
I thought he would get angry and tell her to leave, but he just asked, “Who do you plan to use it on?”
Mayra’s mind didn’t turn for a moment, realizing that he hadn’t gotten angry, he immediately explained.
I didn’t intend to use it on anyone, let alone on Ronan. I just casually put it in my bag, never expecting that you would…”
She didn’t know if it was her imagination, but whenever Ronan was mentioned, the air became dead silent and tense.
The sound outside continued, as if someone was rummaging through boxes and cabinets, still muttering and grumbling.
Someone even knocked on the bathroom door.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
These several VIP rooms were far away from the hall, and although the environment was good, at this moment, no one could be called.
Mayra lowered her eyelashes and said, “Mr. Colten, I’m sorry.”
She gritted her teeth and started whimpering softly, feeling truly embarrassed in front of someone as proper and serious as Colten, but there was no other way at the moment.
The people outside heard the ambiguous sound and paused for a moment, so Mayra took the opportunity to ask.
“Who is it? I didn’t need room service now.
Chapter 33 Eyes Filled with Burning Fire
After saying that, she sniffled again and said, “I don’t want it anymore, it seems like someone is coming outside.”
The knocking sound paused, and the person outside probably didn’t expect to come across such a scene, and moreover, the man inside was definitely not Colten.
After all, Colten was disabled and couldn’t possibly play with women in the bathroom.
Several people couldn’t find any trace of Colten and left immediately.
Mayra listened carefully to the sounds outside and noticed that there was no more movement before slowly stopping.
She dared not look at Colten’s expression, only heard the wheelchair scraping on the ground, and then the faucet on the washbasin was turned
- on.
His hands soaked the towel again, and the veins on the back of his hands. bulged, showing the immense endurance he had used.
Mayra was too afraid to open the bathroom door, so she stood there awkwardly.
She watched as Colten tensed up, covering his face with a damp towel, his chest rising and falling slightly.
The ambiguous atmosphere filled the entire bedroom, and she could even hear his panting.
Very heavy, endured with great effort.
