NovelEnglishMy baby’s daddy chapter 2512-Shirley lifted a shirt and helped Zacharias to put it on. Given his injuries, he
couldn't manage the buttons, so she stepped in to help. Naturally, this required
her to stand close to him while buttoning his shirt. As she worked, she sensed
his gaze lingering on her. Seizing a moment when her attention was diverted, he
lightly pressed his lips against her forehead.
“Quit fooling around,” she chided, looking annoyed. “I don’t fool around when I'm
with others, but | can’t help myself when I'm with you,” he replied playfully. He
seemed utterly shameless whenever he was around her.
After buttoning his shirt, she helped him put on his vest and coat. Before
leaving, she brought an extra jacket in case he got cold and needed it.
By the tthey left the hospital, Roy had already arranged for more than ten
bodyguards to be on standby. To maintain secrecy about Zacharias’
whereabouts, all the surrounding lights were turned off as a tall, slender figure
stepped out.
Shirley was about to get into Zacharias’ car when he stopped her. “You can take
the car behind mine.”
“Why?” she asked.
“No reason.” He gestured for Roy to sit beside him after that. She had just shut
the car door and was about to leave when Freddie spoke. “Don’t you know the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtreason, Miss Lloyd? Mr. Flintstone's trying to protect you.”
Shirley's heart skipped a beat as she understood what Freddie meant. If the
criminals managed to track Zacharias and targeted his car, it would be unsafe
for her to stay with him. He was genuinely trying to protect her by having her
take a different vehicle. She hurried to the next car, her chest tightening, hoping
nothing terrible would happen again.
Once Zacharias’ car drove out of the hospital grounds, another six cars trailed
behind him. The line of cars seemed especially grand as they all made their way
to his office. Eventually, they arrived safely at their destination.
She hopped out of her car and hurried over to Zacharias before entering the
lobby with the rest of his bodyguards. Once they got into the building, he
ordered her and a few other bodyguards to follow him while the rest of the men
stayed downstairs.
The filming crew was also on standby. Zacharias had to record a 15-minute-long
interview. Shirley watched as a staff member hurried over to fix his hair. He
didn’t need much more than that-his complexion seemed exceptionally healthy
and radiant because of his fever.
Meanwhile, Shirley, Roy, and other bodyguards stood behind the cameras. They
watched as Zacharias, who had just regained consciousness that morning,
spoke energetically. He answered the interviewer's questions and exuded his
usual charismatic aura.
Even though 15 minutes wasn’t a long time, Zacharias’ suit placed a lot of
pressure on his shoulder injury. Shirley knew how bad this was for his wound,
and she couldn't help but clench her fists when the interviewer bombarded him
with questions. Her gaze was filled with worry as she looked at the man.
He could sense her concerned gaze on him from the corner of his eyes. He
glanced over in her direction just for a few seconds. She noticed a slight frown
forming on the corner of his lips.
The interviewer didn’t know anything about what had happened to Zacharias.
She didn’t know that the man who had rushed for the interview was injured. She
only received orders. to do the interview at the very last minute, and she wanted
to get to know the man more, so she added a few extra questions that the public
was curious about.
When Shirley saw how the interviewer kept pestering the man, she strode over
to a spot where the interviewer could see her before she held her hand up and
gestured for the interviewer to stop. The interviewer froze for a moment before
she hastily asked a final question to wrap things up.
Zacharias pressed his brows together. The injury on his shoulder started hurting
as he had been in the sseated position for too long. Right then, he felt a
pair of slim but strong hands holding onto his left shoulder and helping him up.

Freddie immediately started to clear the space, and soon enough, Shirley and
Zacharias were the only two people left in the office. Once they were left alone,
he leaned most of his weight against her shoulder.
