Chapter 39

Auteur: Luna Starling
It was no surprise the restaurant was such a hit online—Nora and her friends ate to their hearts’ content.

By the end of the meal, the anger she’d felt that afternoon had been soothed away by good food.

After paying through the app, she told Jodi and Oliver to relax in the booth while she stepped out to the restroom.

She hadn’t expected to run into Lily right outside the door.

“I knew I wasn’t imagining it earlier,” Lily said, her voice dripping with mockery. “Nora, you really are something. You’ve already managed to cozy up to Stardust’s designer and even take her out for dinner. If only you’d put that kind of effort into Travis and Quinton, maybe you wouldn’t have been kicked out of their house.”

With Travis and his son no longer around, Lily didn’t bother keeping up her sweet act—every word came out sharp and mean.

But Nora had seen through her long ago. She didn’t so much as flinch.

“That’s right,” she said coolly. “I always manage to get there before you. No matter how hard

    “Nora, don’t panic,” Eric said firmly, gripping her shoulders. “I’m calling in every contact I have. We’ll find Quinton.”Her fingers clutched his sleeve, trembling. “Eric, this is all my fault. If I’d just paid more attention, none of this would’ve happened.”He pulled her into his arms, his voice low but steady. “It’s not your fault. Don’t blame yourself. What matters now is finding him fast.”While comforting her, Eric was already coordinating with Travis, who’d arrived moments later. The two men, despite their long-standing resentment, set aside their differences for the child’s sake.Eric activated his network of business and social contacts, mobilizing people to check every possible lead. Teams spread out across the city—at train stations, shopping malls, and parks—searching every corner for any trace of the boy.Meanwhile, Travis relied on what he knew best: Quinton’s habits and favorite spots. He led another team to search familiar places—the library corner the boy loved,

    Nora hadn’t expected that ever since losing her memory, Quinton had changed so much. He was calmer now, more obedient, even thoughtful in ways that surprised her.Still, she couldn’t eat greasy food yet, so when he eagerly offered her a French fry, she smiled and shook her head. “No, sweetheart. Mommy can’t eat that right now.”Quinton didn’t mind. He nodded, munching happily while she watched. Seeing his small hands clutching the fries, his cheeks puffed up as he chewed, she felt a flicker of warmth—and then, suddenly, a sharp cramp twisted in her stomach.Her expression tightened. “Quinton,” she said softly, pressing a hand to her abdomen, “Mommy’s stomach hurts a little. I’m going to the restroom. Stay here, okay?”With his mouth full, Quinton mumbled, “Don’t worry, Mom! I’ll still be right here eating when you get back.”She smiled helplessly. “Alright, I’ll be quick.”Clutching her bag, she hurried off toward the restroom. But once she got there, the pain didn’t subside quic

    Just as Travis began to realize he might have said too much and Nora sat there feeling quietly hurt, Quinton suddenly spoke up, his small voice breaking the tension.“Dad, it was my fault,” he said quickly. “I saw a commercial on TV where a little boy brought his grandma some warm water to wash her feet. She smiled and told him he was a good kid. I just wanted to do the same thing and make Mom happy. Don’t blame her.”Nora froze. Was this really her son? When had he become so sensible?Travis blinked, finally understanding what had happened. Guilt washed over his face as he exhaled. “So it was my mistake,” he admitted quietly. “I shouldn’t have jumped to conclusions. Nora… if something like this happens again, please just tell me right away. I don’t want to accuse you unfairly.”He lowered his head, clearly embarrassed. Nora, seeing his expression, let it go without saying more.Instead, she turned to Quinton. “Next time, sweetheart, only do what you can handle, okay? No one shoul

    Nora gestured for her son to set the basin down by the side of the bed instead of carrying it all the way to the balcony.Quinton nodded obediently—but the basin was too heavy for his small hands. It tilted, slipped, and with a loud splash, warm water spilled everywhere, soaking part of the floor and even the edge of Nora’s blanket.Startled, Nora sat up quickly. “Quinton! Are you okay? Did it burn you?”She knew the hospital’s utility room used a temperature-controlled water system—it shouldn’t have been hot enough to hurt him—but her heart still lurched in fear.Quinton blinked at her, drops of water clinging to his hair and sleeves. He made a small, awkward face—half laughing, half on the verge of tears.Just then, the door burst open.Travis stood in the doorway, eyes narrowing as he took in the scene—the overturned basin, the wet sheets, his son’s damp clothes.“What the hell is going on here?” he snapped, voice rising. “Nora, are you serious? He’s just a child! You’re maki

    “Goodbye, Eric,” Gillian said softly before turning away.She walked out of the hospital with her head down, her heels clicking against the floor in small, uneven steps. Even after everything she’d done to Nora, she hadn’t managed to win back Eric’s heart. How had it come to this?She was his fiancée. And yet, because of one terrible mistake, everything she’d worked for was slipping through her fingers. She had no one to blame but herself.But just as she stepped outside, before she could even reach the car Eric had arranged for her, a man in a dark mask appeared out of nowhere. He stopped right in front of her and tapped her shoulder.“I can help you,” he said in a low, almost silky voice. “If you want your Eric back, I can make that happen.”Gillian froze, staring at him in disbelief. How did he know what she wanted? A chill crept up her spine, but something about his tone… made her want to believe him.---Inside the hospital room, Nora finally let out a slow breath.She cou

    Eric turned his head sharply, his tone ice-cold.“Gillian Lawson, apologize!”“I won’t!”Typical Gillian. Proud, spoiled, defiant. Apologizing had never been in her vocabulary. When she’d plotted this mess, it had never once crossed her mind that she might one day have to bow her head to the woman she’d tried to destroy.Eric’s voice hardened, his restraint thinning.“If you won’t apologize, then get ready to go to the station. The car’s already waiting downstairs. And just so you know… Your family’s business will be hit hard once this gets out. You can forget about being the untouchable Miss Lawson. That life’s over.”He’d already expected her arrogance. She’d acted because she believed her family name could shield her. So he hit her where it hurt most—her pride and her privilege.That finally broke her. Gillian hesitated, her expression tightening before she forced herself to bow slightly toward Nora.“Nora,” she said, her voice small but still laced with bitterness, “I’m s
