    "Be, you''re finally awake!"


    Christopher tightly grasped her hand, rubbing and kissing it with an almost desperate tenderness. "You slept for an entire day and night, and I was terrified... I was so scared something might be wrong with you. While you were asleep, I had a doctore and give you glucose. You can''t keep starving yourself. Even if you hate me to the core, it''s not worth punishing yourself like this, is it?"


    Be was a doctor herself, and she knew her body was close to its limit. As much as she loathed him, Christopher was right. If she wanted to kill him, she needed to regain her strength first.


    "I want meat." Be spoke without looking at him.


    For the first time in five days, Christopher received a non-hostile response from Be. His eyes lit up. "Alright... I''ll have the kitchen prepare it right now! Be, it''ll be ready soon. Just wait!"


    Within an hour, the kitchen had prepared a table full of delicacies for her.


    Two maids helped her get ready while pushing her around in a wheelchair. By the time she emerged from the bathroom, her face regained a hint of color, but her cheeks remained sunken in.


    Christopher''s gaze darkened with desire as he strode forward and lifted her from the wheelchair, holding her tightly against his chest.


    Be was flooded with hatred, but she was too weak to resist.


    He carried her to the dining room. He kept her on hisp as he sat down, nestled within his


    arms.


    "You''re not well, so I''ll feed you, Be."


    He gazed at her with deep affection, cutting the steak into small pieces and patiently feeding her.


    It wasmon knowledge on Rose Ind that Christopher''s patience was reserved for Be alone.


    Be mechanically ate the steak, bite after bite, until the te was clean. Her once bright and lively eyes were now dull and lifeless.


    "Good girl."


    Christopher beamed with joy, as he gently stroked her cheek. "Eat well, gain some weight, and you''ll look beautiful in the wedding dress. Of course, my Be is already very beautiful now."


    The thought of the memory-erasing drug made Be tremble. She did not dare resist his intention to marry her too fiercely, but she also would not give in or try to please him. She simply remained silent.


    The once proud and unyielding youngdy was now at her limit, unable to fight any longer.


    "Rest for a while, andter I''ll take you to see the rose fields I''ve grown just for you. I''ve nned to have the ceremony there." Christopher picked up a napkin and gently wiped her mouth clean.


    Be remained silent and expressionless.


    Her silence filled Christopher''s heart with overwhelming joy. He believed that finally, after five days and nights of torment, she had epted her fate. Even if she still hated him, she was too exhausted to struggle any longer.


    Even so, he was still too cautious to skip her anesthetic injection, though he did allow himself to reduce the dosage slightly.


    Suddenly, a servant rushed in.


    "Mr. Iverson."


    "What is it?" Christopher asked coldly as he continued to feed Be.


    "There''s a guest on the ind."
