Chapter 155 A Token of Love?
Cora came to Byron. He looked down at her, and the cigarette butt on his fingertips flickered on and off.
“Why did you come here?” She asked the most curious thing she wanted to know, unable to bear her anticipation.
“I came to help deliver the supplies. Do you think I’m here to catch you with another man?” Byron blew smoke on her face as if deliberately teasing her.
The faint flames of expectations in Cora’s heart seemed to be extinguished a lot at this moment.
She turned her face away. “Did you need to come in person to
deliver the supplies? Didn’t you just need to give an order?”
Actually, she hoped Byron would admit that he came for
her. Although it didn’t mean their relationship would go
somewhere, she still hoped he would admit it.
But Byron was probably born against her. The more she looked forward to something, the more he made her upset.
“Doing it myself is better than giving orders.”

Not only did he not give her the answer she wanted, but he
was even better at exposing her thoughts. “Or do you think I’m here for you?”
“I… I didn’t.”
Although her inner voice had already admitted it for her, she
didn’t dare to admit it, nor could she admit it.
“That would be great.”
Byron snuffed out the cigarette butt and said, “Get some rest. We’ll be busy tomorrow.”
Cora silently put away the expectations she shouldn’t have.
“You too.”
She turned to leave, but in the end, she turned back and
handed the sachet to Byron.
“This is for you.”
Byron didn’t like mosquitoes buzzing around him. When he
spent the night in her apartment, he would have a restless sleep if there was a mosquito in the room.
Not to mention mosquitoes, all kinds of insects might be in this kind of temporary tent. So Cora brought Byron her sachet.

“What is it? A token of love?”
Byron took the sachet and looked at it. His eyes lit up, but Cora didn’t know if he was teasing her or looking forward to
something.
“Don’t think too much. There are some mosquito-repellent herbs in it. You can put it next to the sleeping bag so that no mosquitos will bother you.”
After Byron heard the answer, the light in his eyes quickly dimmed. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” No matter what, he was the hero who had
saved everyone here, and Cora felt this was what he should
do for him.
After she finished speaking, she turned and left.
Byron watched her back, and he returned to the tent when he
was sure she had entered her tent.
At the same late night, Jane, wearing a white suspender nightdress, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window,
was on a phone call.
“Miss Yoris.”
“How is it going out there??” She asked.

Just now, she learned from the news it had been raining
harder in Clamville, causing landslides to occur in a certain
section of the road, very likely forming a barrier lake, which
would threaten the rescuers.
So Jane made a call and asked about the situation of the rescue team of the First Hospital.
On the one hand, she wanted the rescue team to be safe. But
on the other hand, she hoped that something would happen
to Cora so that she would never come back.
That was why when Jane learned the hospital was going to support Clamville, she immediately notified Elwood to add
Cora’s name.
But the rescue team leader replied, “Just now, Mr. Hansen took the Hansen Group’s people and drove several bulldozers and excavators over there. They soon cleaned up the mud and
rocks.”
Jane never expected the Hansen Group to provide support enthusiastically this time, especially with Byron personally leading the team.
It made her suspect that Byron went there for Cora.
In this way, she didn’t want Cora to come back even more.

At this time, the rescue team leader said that Clamville
urgently needed medicine for treating heart diseases, and several patients with heart diseases were at risk of stopping the medication. The leader hoped Jane could arrange for
someone to send some over there.
But Jane said, “There must be this medicine in Autown. You can arrange for Cora to get it tomorrow.”
*Autown? It’s been raining heavily over there now, and mudslides may occur on the road from Clamville to Autown at any time. I think it’s better to transfer the medicines from the First Hospital…”
But before he finished speaking, Jane interrupted him, “It’s just a short distance. The hospital is short-handed right now, so we can’t send men there. Just arrange for Cora to go there, and don’t mention me. Otherwise, you will never be promoted
to be a director.”
The man finally sighed softly, “I see.”
The moment the phone was hung up, Jane fiddled with her long hair hanging down her shoulders. Then she fell asleep peacefully as usual, as if nothing had happened.
