It's the bottom of the ninth, he thought, and so far it's a shutout. What was going to happen when he couldn't pay the ten thousand dollars? Word would spread quickly around the hospital, and he would become known as a welcher, a sick joke.

He sat there, staring down at the table. "Kat…" He looked up. "There's something I have to tell you."
查看中文翻译
Kat was chatting about one of her patients, and Mallory was looking into her eyes, not hearing a word she said. He had more important things on his mind.
查看中文翻译
"Yes?"
查看中文翻译
"I have a confession to make." He took a deep breath. "This isn't easy for me."
查看中文翻译
Kat was staring at him. "You…"
查看中文翻译
Mallory was seated across from Kat at Schroeder's restaurant on Front Street.
查看中文翻译
Dinner was almost over, and the waiter was serving coffee. Kat looked at her watch. "I have an early call, Ken. I think we'd better go."
查看中文翻译
She watched him, puzzled. "What is it?"
查看中文翻译
"I'm embarrassed to tell you." He was fumbling for words. "I… I made a stupid bet with some of the doctors that… that I could take you to bed."
查看中文翻译
"Please don't say anything yet. I'm so ashamed of what I did. It started out as a kind of joke, but the joke is on me. Something happened that I didn't count on. I fell in love with you."
查看中文翻译
"I've never been in love before, Kat. I've known a lot of women, but never felt anything like this. I haven't been able to stop thinking about you." He took a shaky breath. "I want to marry you."
查看中文翻译
"Ken…"
查看中文翻译
Kat's mind was spinning. Everything was being turned topsy-turvy. "I… I don't know what to…"
查看中文翻译
"You're the only woman I've ever proposed to. Please say yes. Will you marry me, Kat?"
查看中文翻译
When Kat looked at him, her eyes were glowing. "Yes, Ken. Oh, yes!"
查看中文翻译
So he had really meant all the lovely things he had said to her! Her heart was pounding. It was like a wonderful dream suddenly come true. All she had wanted from him was honesty. And now he was being honest with her. All this time he had been feeling guilty about what he had done. He was not like other men. He was genuine, and sensitive.

His grin lit up the room. "Kat…" He leaned over and kissed her. "I'm so sorry about that stupid bet." He shook his head in self-derision. "Ten thousand dollars. We could have used that money for our honeymoon. But it's worth losing it to have you."
查看中文翻译
Kat was a tigress in bed.
查看中文翻译
"Promise me it will always be like this, Ken."
查看中文翻译
"I promise," Mallory said in his sincerest voice.
查看中文翻译
"Ken?"
查看中文翻译
"Let's go to your place." There was a mischievous glint in Kat's eyes. "You still have time to win your bet."
查看中文翻译
Kat looked at her watch. "I'd better get dressed."
查看中文翻译
"I was such a fool."
查看中文翻译
Mallory grinned. "So am I." Ten thousand dollars' worth! he thought. And great sex.
查看中文翻译
Kat was thinking, Ten thousand dollars.
查看中文翻译
She lifted herself up on her elbows and looked down at him. "So are you, darling. I'm so happy."
查看中文翻译
My God! This was worth waiting for, Mallory thought. All the feelings that Kat had kept bottled up over the years suddenly exploded. She was the most passionate woman Ken Mallory had ever known. At the end of two hours, he was exhausted. He held Kat in his arms. "You're incredible," he said.
查看中文翻译
"Yes, darling?"
查看中文翻译
"At midnight tonight, but that's not important anymore. The important thing is us. That we're going to be married. We --"
查看中文翻译
"Can't you spend the night here?"
查看中文翻译
"When is your deadline up?"
查看中文翻译
"I can't wait to collect on that bet. It will buy us a great honeymoon." He frowned. "But what if the boys don't believe me? They aren't going to take my word for it."
查看中文翻译
"No, I'm riding to the hospital with Paige in the morning." She gave him a warm kiss. "Don't worry. We'll have all our lives to spend together."
查看中文翻译
He watched her get dressed.
查看中文翻译
Kat was thoughtful for a moment. Finally, she said, "Don't worry. I'll let them know."
查看中文翻译
Mallory grinned. "Come on back to bed."
