Chapter 247

Author: Luna Starling
Gillian bristled at Travis’s refusal to introduce himself, but her real target was still Nora.

She stepped forward, raising her voice. “Hmph. Whatever this is, it needs to be cleared up tonight. Eric, you can’t just walk off with her like that.”

Eric stopped and turned, his gaze cool. “I already told you. Nora and I are colleagues. My personal life is nobody for you to meddle in. Keep pushing this and I’ll make sure the Lawson family puts you in your place.”

Travis snorted from the side. “Colleagues? That’s a clumsy excuse. Eric, don’t pretend you don’t have feelings for her.”

For a heartbeat, Eric’s eyes flickered with something like unease, but he recovered immediately. “Travis, don’t try to stir trouble here. Nora and I have a clean, professional relationship. You, on the other hand, have been hung up on her for too long. What exactly are you playing at?”

Mr. Leedon finally stepped in, unable to stay silent. “Eric, what’s going on? We’re all a little confused. You owe everyone

    Eric let out a laugh at Travis’s words. “You feel bad? Have you ever thought about what you did to Nora?”He said it on purpose. He wanted Travis to know Nora could be fine without him.The bait worked. When Eric spoke, Travis’s eyes flashed cold with fury.“I’m talking to my child’s mother—what business is it of yours? Did Nora actually admit you’re her boyfriend?”“How dare he talk like he’s her boyfriend?” Travis thought angrily. And Nora—had she just accepted it? Quietly acknowledged it?She’d completely given up on their child and walked away? Even after he’d handed her Eric’s full background report, she’d acted like none of it mattered.Rage burned in Travis’s chest. In that moment he wanted to crush Nora and Eric both.Eric ignored the warning in Travis’s stare and kept going, slow and sharp. “I’m just speaking the truth. When you went off and licked another woman’s boots with your son in tow, did you ever stop to think about Nora’s feelings?”“Nora, you care about them,

    Nora trembled uncontrollably in Eric’s arms, sobbing so hard she could barely breathe.Eric held her close, one hand gently stroking her back while his eyes scanned the area, sharp and furious. His jaw tightened as he searched for whoever had pushed her.But there was no one, only a few shocked onlookers whispering among themselves, eyes wide from what they’d just witnessed. The attacker had vanished.Who did this?! Eric’s thoughts roared in fury.He knew without a doubt this hadn’t been an accident. Someone had meant to kill her.Meanwhile, down the corridor, Travis was walking absently beside Quinton, lost in his own thoughts.Suddenly, Quinton stopped, tugging on his father’s sleeve. “Dad, I think I heard Mom! It sounded like she was in trouble, can we go check?”Travis blinked, snapping out of his daze. For a moment he hesitated. Showing up again might not be right—but what if something really had happened to Nora?One look at his son’s worried little face decided it for h

    Quinton could feel the tension in the room. He ran over to Eric and tugged at his hand, looking up with wide, tearful eyes. “Uncle, I just want to see my mom. Please… I just miss her.”Eric froze. The anger in his chest dulled as he looked at the boy’s innocent face. He took a steadying breath before turning to Travis.“She’s still very weak,” Eric said quietly but firmly. “Any emotional shock could hurt her recovery. If you truly care about her, then leave for her sake.”Travis’s jaw tightened. Conflict flickered across his face, his eyes drifting toward the doorway as if he could somehow see through it to Nora. His lips parted, but no words came out.Beside him, Quinton clung to his father’s sleeve, voice trembling. “But I really miss Mom…”Eric’s heart clenched at the sight. For a split second, sympathy stirred but the thought of Nora’s fragile state forced him to harden again.Travis crouched down and gently wiped the tears from his son’s cheeks. “It’s okay, buddy,” he said h

    By the lakeside, Eric stopped by a wooden bench and sat down beside Nora. Together, they watched the sunlight ripple across the water.“It’s beautiful here,” Nora murmured softly.Eric was about to respond when, out of the corner of his eye, he spotted two familiar figures in the distance. They were Travis and little Quinton. They were carrying a bag of fruit, walking quickly toward the hospital building.A sharp pang of tension cut through Eric’s chest. The last thing Nora needed right now was to see Travis and be thrown into emotional turmoil. Her recovery was still fragile, and any shock could set her back.With practiced calm, he subtly turned the wheelchair, angling it away from the path where Travis was passing. Then he stood, his tall frame deliberately blocking Nora’s line of sight.Nora noticed the movement and blinked, puzzled. “What is it, Eric?”He smiled, his voice gentle. “Nothing. The sunlight’s just a little too bright from that direction. Let me block it for you.

    The delivery man scratched his head. “It was a black van. Looked a little old, but the windows were all covered with dark tint. You couldn’t see who was inside.”Eric jotted down every detail on his phone, his expression growing darker by the second. His pulse pounded with fury. There was no longer any doubt—this hadn’t been an accident. It was a calculated attempt on Nora’s life.He left the café in haste, his thoughts churning as he drove back to the hospital. Every face, every motive he could think of flashed through his mind, piecing together a web of possibilities.When he stepped through the hospital doors, he felt a sliver of relief seeing the bodyguards he’d stationed outside Room 302, alert and ready. At least she was safe—for now.Inside the room, Nora sat propped up on the bed, flipping through a magazine.When she heard the door open, her eyes lit up instantly. “You’re back. How did it go?”Eric walked quickly to her side and took her hand. “It was about the crash inv

    Nora smiled faintly. “If it weren’t for you cheering me on every day, I don’t think I’d have made this much progress.”“That’s all you,” Eric said, eyes warm with pride. “You’re stronger than I ever imagined.”“By the way,” Nora asked curiously, “has anything happened while I’ve been stuck in here?”Eric hesitated for a moment before answering, “Nothing major. You just focus on getting better. Leave everything else to me.”“Alright,” she said softly. “With you here, I feel safe.”Eric’s chest tightened at her words. He leaned down and brushed a gentle kiss against her forehead. “Get some rest. I need to step out for a bit, but I’ll be back soon.”Nora nodded obediently.The moment Eric stepped into the hallway, his phone rang. He answered quickly—it was his assistant, the one he’d assigned to investigate the crash.“Mr. Woods,” the assistant said, excitement in his tone, “we found an eyewitness to the accident.”“Who?” Eric’s voice sharpened instantly.“A delivery driver who
