Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 830

Noreen threw off the covers in a flash and shot him an angry glare.

But when she saw the blood-soaked bandage on his arm, she pressed her lips together.

Her gaze eventually softened.

She didn't need to be a genius to know the wound had reopened because he had carried her to the bed.

She got out of bed, gestured for Seth to lie back down, and went to the bathroom to quickly freshen up.

She used the makeup in her purse to do a quick touch-up.

After all, she was going to court today and might have to face reporters, so she needed to pay attention to her appearance.

She had a beautiful face, so even a light, casual application of makeup was enough to make her look elegant and lovely.

As soon as she stepped out of the bathroom, Seth's eyes followed her.

"What do you want for breakfast?" he started to say as he looked over.

But when he saw Noreen, he stopped, his voice trailing off.

He stared at her, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration.

The kind of admiration a man has for a woman.

His gaze made Noreen feel a bit uncomfortable. She instinctively tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "What do you want to eat?"

He said, "You."

A blush crept up Noreen's cheeks.

Realizing a moment too late that he'd said his thoughts out loud, Seth quickly cleared his throat. "I'll have whatever you're having."

His explanation made it seem like she was the one with her mind in the gutter.

Noreen struggled to remain calm. "I have things to do today, so I won't be having breakfast with you. You're on your own."

As she spoke, she gathered her things, not noticing how the light in the man's eyes behind her dimmed slightly.

Coincidentally, Dariel showed up just then, knocking on the door. "Miss Gilmore, Mr. Joyner is waiting for you in the car. He's asking how much longer you'll be."
