Chapter 481

Penulis: Love Berries
Maybe there was something mixed into the IV drip to help her sleep, because despite thinking she’d have trouble sleeping, Aurora drifted off surprisingly fast.

While she rested peacefully, things on Lucas’ end were far from calm.

He’d tried calling her, only to find her phone turned off.

The two messages he’d sent had gone unanswered, vanishing into silence.

He paced the room, tension written all over him. His anxiety was obvious.

Unable to sit still any longer, he called Desmond. He needed to know where Aurora was now.

Whatever was going on, he hoped it wasn’t what he feared.

Desmond had already gotten home for the night.

When he saw Lucas’ name lighting up his screen, he nearly blacked out on the spot.

He wanted the world end already.

Why did everything always have to go sideways the moment he lay down to rest?

He ran a hand through what little was left of his hair, sighed in surrender, and picked up. "Yes, sir? What’s going on? It’s late. What can I do for you?"

In real life, Desm

    When Lucas heard the update, the gloom in his eyes deepened.“Find her. If you can’t, pack your bags and go to Fortline tomorrow.”Desmond nearly blacked out. Before he could even protest, the call ended with a hard click.He threw a few punches into the air in sheer frustration.This was absolutely insane.Aurora was out of her mind, and Lucas? A full-blown maniac.What the hell were these two trying to do in the middle of the night?With a long breath, Desmond finally calmed himself, channeling his rage into a small act of rebellion.He changed Lucas’ contact name in his phone from “Boss” to “Madman.”Still, when it came to orders, he knew better than to ignore them. He got paid, and he lived by a simple rule—take the money, do the job.As crazy as Lucas could be, the man paid well. He never once shorted his wages. That alone was enough reason to stick around.But now he had a problem—he had absolutely no idea where to start looking for Aurora.Her assistant came to mind, but it w

    He had no idea how Aurora was doing these past couple of days.While he’d been away, Lucas thought about her more than once—about the warmth of her in his arms and the softness he’d gotten so used to.As for Wendy sitting in the backseat, all Lucas wanted now was to get in touch with Kenneth. He’d had enough of Kenneth’s beloved sister.He truly couldn’t deal with her any longer.Back at the house, Wendy followed him out of the car, sticking close behind, not daring to fall a step behind.The aura radiating off him was downright intimidating, and she didn’t have the nerve to speak up.In truth, she still didn’t know what had come over her when she’d taken his phone. Her body had moved faster than her brain.Biting her lip, she kept trying to build up the courage until she finally reached out and tugged lightly at his sleeve. “Lukey…”Lucas turned, his brows sharply furrowed, his expression icy. “This better be important.”He was waiting to charge his phone.He had no patience left fo

    He had meant to call Aurora back.But Wendy was clearly stalling.She was eating slowly on purpose, coming up with excuse after excuse to drag things out.Lucas’ patience wore thin. His expression grew darker with every passing minute.Wendy could sense his rising irritation, but she still forced herself to finish the meal. Even if he ended up resenting her, she was determined to have this dinner this time with him no matter what.And as for Aurora?That woman was just too greedy. Was it too much to ask for one evening? Couldn’t she handle things on her own for once?It was infuriating.Finally, the dinner ended—though clearly not on pleasant terms. As soon as Wendy set down her fork, Lucas reached out his hand, his face cold and unreadable.He didn’t need to say anything; the meaning was clear.Wendy let out a dry chuckle. “I knew I had to give it back. If I wasn’t going to, I wouldn’t have taken it in the first place. No need to be so dramatic.”Lucas didn’t respond. His hand remai

    Aurora glanced at the IV stand—there were still two or three more bags to go. Letting her assistant wait through all that wasn’t right; it would completely disrupt his rest."Go home. That’s an order. I’ll be fine on my own. I’m planning to get some sleep anyway. If anything comes up, I’ll call the nurse."Hearing that, Ian couldn’t insist any further. One look at the seriousness on Aurora’s face, and he knew she meant it."Alright then, Miss Walton. I’ll come by first thing tomorrow morning."Aurora nodded, agreeing at last.She knew if she didn’t, he would likely stay the whole night.She understood her people well, especially the kind of person he was.After he left, the hospital room fell into a heavy silence, leaving Aurora completely alone.She stared blankly at the television mounted on the white wall.Time passed without her noticing.The vibrant glow that usually lit up her features was gone now, leaving behind only weariness and fatigue.She picked up her phone and checked

    This also made it easier for the medical team to proceed with treatment.When Ian returned to the room with the medication, Aurora happened to open her eyes."Miss Walton, how are you feeling?"Aurora gave a faint shake of her head. She tried to push herself up using her arm, but Ian quickly stopped her. "Miss Walton, you're still on an IV drip. You should stay lying down."Following his gaze, Aurora noticed the IV bag hanging beside her. With no choice, she eased back onto the bed.She cleared her throat and was surprised by how dry and raspy her voice sounded. "Did you bring me to the hospital?"Ian nodded. "Yes, Miss Walton. The doctor said it’s acute gastroenteritis. It has to do with your eating habits. The meal I got you earlier... you didn’t eat it, did you?"Aurora's face rarely showed such embarrassment. "I got caught up with work and forgot."Hearing that, Ian nearly exploded. "Forgot? Miss Walton, you can't be careless with your health!"This is your own body. You’re going
