After 666 Betrayals, I Chose His Billionaire Rival Chapter 133: Nathan Coughs Up Blood
Lily was admitted to the hospital.Tests confirmed seawater had gotten into her respiratory tract, causing some inflammation mild signs of aspiration pneumonia.Nothing serious.The doctor recommended three to five days of observation.With antibiotics and nebulizer treatment and no sign of further infection, she'd be cleared to go home.Eleanor insisted on staying overnight in the room with her.Robin pulled her aside instead. "We don't need you hovering. If you're here, we'll be looking after two patients instead of one. Just take care of yourself that's the best thing you can do for her right now. I'm taking you home to sleep."Eleanor was ushered out, grumbling. "What's that supposed to mean?"Robin laughed. "It means Adrian's already taking better care of her than either of us could."Eleanor's brow furrowed.Once they were in the carShe asked, "Are you trying to push something between Adrian and Lily?""I think he's genuinely serious about her," Robin said. "And of course I wa

Lily's ears were ringing.She slowly eased back from Adrian, staring at him, dazed.He was drenched head to toe.Water still dripping from the ends of his hair.He reached up, brushed a loose strand away from her face, and took her hand in his. "Were you scared? It's over now. You're safe."She nodded.The moment Hendricks had shoved her over the rail, water had rushed in from every direction, flooding her nose, her ears, her mouth.She'd sunk lower and lower.The pressure building with every foot.She couldn't breathe.She remembered being aware, with horrifying clarity, of her own life slipping away.In those final seconds.She'd known there was nothing left to do.But she'd wanted to live anyway.Faced with that desperate, useless will to survive, she'd felt herself drifting toward death regardless.Her mind had gone hazy.Her heart feeling ready to burst.In that moment, she'd known, with total certainty, that she was going to die.But fate had other plans.She hadn't died.She'd

It was Vanessa!Which meant whoever had taken Lily wasn't Nathan after all.So who was it?And why would Vanessa be kidnapped too?Vanessa lay on her side on the floor nearby, wrists bound behind her back, curled protectively around her stomach.Her hair hung tangled across half her face, her skin ghost-pale.She kept calling weakly for help.Pointless, though.In that instant, Lily's mind finally cleared completely."Lily!"Vanessa forced her head up, and the second she spotted Lily's open eyes, her expression turned venomous. "This is all your fault! You dragged me into this! Who the hell did you make an enemy of?"Lily didn't bother responding.No point wasting energy on pointless arguments right now.With nowhere else to direct her fury, Vanessa unloaded it all on Lily instead.She didn't hold back. "You're a curse, Lily. Everyone who gets near you ends up ruined.""And just so you know I'm carrying Nathan's child. If anything happens to me, or this baby, I will make you pay for i

"Wait!"Lily spoke fast.The driver slowly brought the car to a stop.Turned to look at her, something cold in his eyes. "What's wrong?"She forced her voice steady. "I left my wallet at the club. Can we turn back?"Home was still a ways off.The club was closer.The driver grunted something that might have been agreement.But the car didn't move.Lily's hand crept toward the door handle, careful.Snapped it open fast.But the next instantHe grabbed a fistful of her hair, yanked her back hard, slamming her against the seat.She gasped at the pain.He kept his grip tight, forcing her to face him.Held her gaze.His mouth curled, mocking. "Too green to outplay me, sweetheart.""Who are you?" she demanded.He sneered. "Doesn't matter who I am."Her eyes blazed, bloodshot with fury. "Did Nathan send you?"He laughed, cold.Before he could answerLily lunged forward, headbutting him square in the nose.A grunt of pain.His grip loosened.She seized the opening.Kicked the half-open door t

With thatAdrian got in the car.Drove off.Milo blinked, betrayed. "They didn't even mention me! Mom, let's go home right now."Lily, Milo's hand in hers, walked inside smiling.Once they were inEleanor's face lit up. "Milo's here! Great-grandma will fry you up some fish fillets!"Milo nodded eagerly. "Yes please!"Lily sighed, exasperated. "We just ate! And now more food? Can his stomach even handle that?""Just one bite," Eleanor said. "I made it myself, and he hasn't tried it yet.""Save it for breakfast," Lily said. "Not tonight."Eleanor considered that. "Fair enough. Don't want to give him indigestion."Milo stayed at Brookview Apartments for five days.Lily learned, eventually, that after spending the holidays here, Winston had gone back to Rivermouth to celebrate with his other two households.Robin, munching an apple, said with a grin, "Gotta hand it to that old man he's got real talent for playing favorites evenly. A master of time management, if nothing else."Lily smiled

She was somehow crying harder than Milo ever did.Lily laughed through her tears. "I'm just so happy. I thought I thought if you took him to Rivermouth, I'd never see him again.""You'll always be his mother," Adrian said.Lily knew, deep down, that wasn't really how it worked.As time went on.With less and less time together, with a whole new life filling up around him, the early years tended to fade even the people in them.But hearing Adrian say it anyway filled her with warmth all the same.They left the mall."Want to come see him?" Adrian asked.Lily smiled, hesitant. "I don't want to impose."Not exactly convenient timing."Dana just texted," Adrian said. "Milo's there too playing with Sophie, refusing to leave."Lily laughed. "She must be a sweet kid, then."A faint smile pulled at his mouth. "You really do love little girls, don't you. Want to come?"Heat rose in her cheeks.She made a small sound of agreement.He nodded.Smiled, settled on yes.They arrived at the apartment
