FOR A MOMENT, Lyndon just stood there, frozen, unsure if he heard her right.“Ma’am… someone to take you home?” he repeated quietly, parang nagbabakasakaling mali ang narinig niya.Talia didn’t blink. Her pale face remained unreadable, voice steady and unnervingly calm.“Yes. Please.”Lyndon swallowed hard. “But, Ma’am, you’re injured. Hindi pa kayo stable. The doctor said—”“Take me back,” putol niya sa sinasabi nito, matipid, pero may bigat na hindi kayang salungatin. “Ngayon.”The tone left no room for negotiation.Lyndon hesitated one last time.“What about Sir Caden—”Talia slowly turned her head toward him, her eyes cold, exhausted, but unwavering.“If you don’t want anything else to happen to me,” she said softly, “and if you don’t want a bigger problem explaining this to him, then arrange a car. I need to leave now.”Hindi na nagtanong si Lyndon. There was nothing left to argue, not with that tone, not with those eyes.He bowed his head slightly.“Yes, Ma’am. I’ll arrange it.”
