Adrian's POV

"Sir, let me get that for you." A hospital security guard jogged ahead of Adrian toward the parking lot, pulling the back door of the car open before Adrian reached it.

"Thank you." Adrian eased Kira down into the seat carefully, buckling her in himself, one hand cupping the back of her head so it didn't knock against the frame.

"You need me to call you a driver, sir?"

"No, no, no. I've got it."

"Long night?"

"Longest of my life." Adrian straightened, glancing back at Kira through

    Adrian's POV"Mr. Westbrook?" The man crossed the lobby quickly, hand already extended, a slight bow following the handshake. "Sir, I'm so sorry, I didn't realize it was you.""It's fine.""No, sir, please, I'm truly sorry for the inconvenience. Had I known you were the one at the desk, this would never have happened." The manager's eyes flicked toward the clerk still frozen behind the desk, her face pale. "What's the issue, Mr. Westbrook?""I need a room, and—""Done. Done, sir." The manager cut him off before Adrian could finish, already turning toward the desk, snapping his fingers once at a nearby staff member who scrambled to attention. "Which of our suites or wings would you like?""No room available, sir, I already told him the wing is held for—" the clerk started.The manager rounded on her, voice dropping low enough that he clearly hadn't meant for Adrian to hear it. "Can you shut up before you lose your job?"Adrian heard it anyway. A faint smile pulled at the corner of his

I've got it.""Long night?""Longest of my life." Adrian straightened, glancing back at Kira through the open door, her head already tipping toward the window. "Thank you for the help.""Anytime, sir. Hope your family's okay.""So do I."He shut the door gently and rounded to the driver's side, sliding in behind the wheel. He pulled up a search on his phone, scanning for the nearest five star property, somewhere close enough that she wouldn't be in the car much longer than necessary. Twelve minutes out. He typed the address into the navigation and pulled out of the lot."We’ll get there in no t

    Adrian's POVAdrian watched Kira from across the lounge, her knees pulled up to her chest in the corner of the couch, his jacket still draped over her shoulders from hours ago. "You should eat something." Adrian sat a chair across from her, close enough to see how pale she'd gone. "You haven't touched anything since we got here.""I'm not hungry.""Not eating won't make Lily heal any faster, Kira."She turned her head slowly and gave him a look sharp enough to cut glass. "Did I ask for a lecture?""No.""Then keep it to yourself."He held her stare a moment longer, then stood without another word and walked out toward the vending area down the hall. When he came back he was carrying a paper cup, steam curling off the top, and he set it down in front of her without comment.She eyed it. "What's this?""Coffee. Black, no sugar. The way you like it." He set the cup on the table in front of her, careful not to let it spill."I didn't ask for coffee.""I know."She stared at the cup a lon

    Kira's POVThe doctor stopped outside a door marked with Lily's name on a small whiteboard, his hand resting on the handle without turning it yet."Before you go in, I need to tell you what we're dealing with.""Just say it." Adrian's grip tightened at Kira's back. "Whatever it is.""Your daughter suffered a skull fracture and significant internal bleeding. We had to operate to relieve pressure on her brain. The surgery went well, but she's in an induced coma to let the swelling go down."Kira's legs buckled and this time Adrian caught her fully, one arm wrapping around her waist, holding her upright against him."A coma." Her voice came out as barely a breath. "For how long?""That depends on how she responds. Could be days, could be longer. We won't know until we start bringing her out of it.""And if she doesn't respond?""Let's not go there yet." The doctor's tone gentled. "Right now, she's stable, and stable is good news.""Can we see her?""Two minutes. She needs quiet."The doc

    Kira's POV “I need a fucking answer right now.” Adrian's voice echoed through the hallway. "Sir, if you can just take a seat, someone will be out to update you shortly." "I've been sitting for two hours." Adrian's voice had dropped low, the kind of low that made people around him go still. "My daughter came in unresponsive and nobody has told us a single thing since." "I understand your frustration, but I don't have access to her chart, I'm front desk staff, I can only…." "Then get me someone who does have a freaking access, oh my goodness ." Kira sat frozen in the chair, her hands pressed together so tightly her fingers had gone numb. Every time the doors down the hall opened she looked up, and every time it wasn't for them, something in her chest cracked a little further. "Adrian." "What." "Sit down. Please." "I'm not sitting down, Kira. Our daughter is somewhere behind that door and nobody will tell us if she's breathing on her own." He turned back to the recept

  • Too Late To Love Me, Mr Billionaire    Chapter 219

    Kira's POV "How did you even get here before me." Kira sat down hard in the plastic chair, her legs finally giving out beneath her. "You live in the city." "They called me too." Adrian sat beside her, elbows on his knees, hands clasped so tight his knuckles had gone pale. "Same way as they called you. I was in a meeting, my assistant ran in with the message, I didn't even grab my jacket." "You drove." "I broke every speed limit between here and Manhattan." He glanced sideways at her. "You flew." "I panicked. I didn't know what else to do." "You didn't have to explain that to me." A nurse walked past and Kira half rose out of her seat before realizing the woman wasn't stopping for them. She sank back down, her hands twisting in her lap. "Why is she even here," Kira said. "Weslake is nowhere near her campus." "It's the closest trauma center to the interstate. If something happened on the road..." "On the road doing what?" "I don't know, Kira. Nobody's told us anythi
