Chapter 141: Traces of Him.

Lena stepped into the house slowly.The moment the door shut behind her, silence wrapped around her.Her chest tightened.Everything was exactly the same. Just like Theon said.Nothing had changed.She had left this place months ago without looking back. At that time, she had been too overwhelmed to carry anything with her. She only told the landlord to rent the place out.Turns out… Theon owned it now.Lena swallowed hard as her gaze moved around the familiar living room.There were traces of him everywhere.A black jacket hung lazily over the couch.A coffee mug sat near the television stand.Even the faint scent lingering in the air belonged to him.Without realizing it, Lena reached out and touched the jacket softly.A strange warmth spread through her chest.One that made her lips curve faintly.When she entered the bedroom, her steps slowed.Her floral bedsheets were still there.The wardrobe remained untouched.Some of Theon’s shirts even hung beside her hoodies as though they

Chapter 142: Right On Time.

“Mr. Kensington, we found a possible match.”Theon immediately looked up.The doctor across from him adjusted his glasses before continuing carefully. “But there’s a problem.”Theon’s gaze darkened."The donor's family is asking for an impossible amount. We tried negotiating, but they won't budge."Theon scoffed.“Where is the problem in that?”The doctor fell silent for a moment. “We assumed—”“Inform the family I’ll give them double whatever amount they requested.” Theon cut in coldly.The doctor’s eyes widened.“But…” Theon’s voice dropped lower. “On no account are they to withdraw consent last minute or delay the procedure.”He leaned back into the seat, exhaling through his nose as though a weight had finally lifted from his chest.“We’re leaving now.”—It had been three days.Lena stopped counting after the first forty-eight hours. After that, time blurred into one endless stretch of hospital corridors, sleepless nights, and silent prayers.She sat outside the ward, her fingers

Chapter 143: Too Late.

Without thinking, Lena rushed forward, ignoring the wobble in her legs.Thud!Rhys’ fist landed on Theon again.A deep groan escaped Theon as he stumbled backward and hit the floor.“Ahh!” one of the nurses screamed from the side. “What are you doing? This is a hospital!”Lena’s heart skipped. “Theon!”She dropped beside him.“Lena!” Rhys thundered.The anger in his voice made her turn.For a moment, Lena froze. Rhys looked nothing like himself.His usually neat appearance was gone. His eyes were bloodshot and wild, his chest rising heavily as if he could barely control his breathing.“Mmh…” Theon let out another strained groan, one hand clutching his jaw.Lena turned back fast.“Are you okay?” she asked anxiously. “Do you feel dizzy? Unwell?”Theon only winced, not answering.Lena’s temper snapped.“What is your problem?!” she yelled at Rhys. “He was already exhausted and you still came here to make things worse!”Rhys went still. Something twisted hard inside his chest.He watched L

Chapter 144: A Dangerous Kind of Comfort.

“Bastard.”Lena muttered under her breath as she kicked a pebble down the empty road.The pebble bounced twice before disappearing into the gutter.She had been walking for a while now, yet not a single decent taxi had passed by.Lena rubbed her forehead tiredly.She wanted to stay angry with Rhys. She had every right to be. But at the same time… she couldn’t blame him for anything either.He had tried to help her father. He had left the country, chased down leads, exhausted himself. Just because he took longer didn't mean he hadn't tried at all.What really upset her was the way he kept accusing her and Theon of having something inappropriate going on between them. The way he looked at her like she was already guilty.She pursed her lips tightly.A taxi finally appeared from the other side of the road.Lena immediately raised her hand.The vehicle slowed to a stop beside her.“Where to?” the driver asked.Lena froze with one hand on the door.Where exactly was she supposed to go?The

Chapter 145: What Does He Want?.

Lena held her breath for his answer.Theon’s gaze rested on her for a few seconds before he placed his phone down on the table. The teasing look on his face faded bit by bit.“How much time?” he asked at last.Lena lowered her eyes to her plate. “I… don’t know.”Silence settled between them. The only sound in the room was the faint hum of the air conditioner.Theon leaned back in his chair, studying her. “You’re reconsidering?” he asked.Lena raised her head at once. “No.” The answer came too fast.One of Theon’s brows lifted.Lena bit her lip and looked away.“It’s just…” She let out a breath. “Everything happened too fast.”The past few days felt like one long nightmare she hadn’t woken up from.Her father almost dying, the surgery, Rhys returning, the fight, the accusations. Everything came crashing one after another without giving her room to breathe.Lena tightened her fingers around the chopsticks.“I’m tired,” she admitted in a quiet tone. “I don’t even know what I’m thinking

Chapter 146: Still Here

Gazing into his sincere eyes, Lena felt her chest tighten.‘What will Rhys think if he finds out Theon wants me to pretend to be his girlfriend?’The thought made her stomach twist.‘Wouldn’t that only create problems between the cousins? Maybe even between both families?’Her fingers curled against her clothes.‘It’s just temporary. No need to make it a big deal.’ She tried convincing herself.“Lena?”She jerked from her thoughts.“Lena.” Rhys called again, worry filling his face. “What are you thinking about?”“Hmm?” She blinked fast before avoiding his eyes. “It’s nothing. Just… a small favor I’m repaying him for.”Rhys frowned. “What favor?”His grip tightened around her shoulders.Lena pushed him back against the bed before he could sit up more.“Can you stop moving around?” she complained. “You were critically ill and still didn’t think to tell me.”Her tone turned irritated. “But you let another woman feed you.”Rhys pressed his lips together. “I’m sorry.”Seeing him look so pi

Chapter 147: Enough Time

Rhys smiled at William.“Dad.”The smooth way he said it stunned Lena for a second.“Sorry I didn’t come with Lena earlier to visit you.”The nurse supported Rhys into the room while he spoke.Lena snapped out of her daze and hurried over. “Careful.”She held his arm and guided him toward the chair beside the bed before thanking the nurse.William frowned at Rhys. “What happened to you?”“Just a slight fever,” Rhys answered in a calm tone.William scoffed. “A slight fever wouldn’t leave you walking around like that.”“Dad.” Lena sighed, resting her hand on Rhys’ shoulder without noticing. “He already said he’s fine. You just woke up and you’re already worrying too much.”William opened his mouth to argue, but paused after seeing the concern on her face.He coughed into his fist and turned away.“Anyway…” His lips stretched into a grin. “I’m glad you two finally worked things out as husband and wife.”“Dad.” Lena glared at him.“You rushed away from my side the moment Rhys entered.” Wi

Chapter 148: Holding Up Her End.

Evelyn followed Roman down the quiet corridor.The further they walked, the quieter it became.Unlike the regular hospital floors bustling with nurses and visitors, this area felt secluded. Few medical staff moved in and out of the private wards, their footsteps muted against the polished floor.Evelyn frowned.This wasn’t the ward Alexander had been in when she visited before.“Roman…” she called softly.He glanced at her but said nothing.When they finally stopped in front of a private ward, Roman turned to her.“Wait here.”Before Evelyn could ask anything, he stepped inside.A few seconds later, he came back out holding a medical mask.“Wear this.”He fastened it over her face himself before taking her hand.“Come.”Evelyn’s confusion deepened.The moment she stepped in, she paused.The ward was dim.Soft blue lights glowed from several machines, accompanied by the quiet rhythm of beeping sounds.It took her eyes a moment to adjust to the lighting.Then she saw Alexander lying on

Chapter 149: What If I Make You Fall in Love With Me.

Lena had just stepped in front of the restaurant when she bumped hard into someone.“Ow—!”“I’m so sorry!” she apologized quickly, not sparing the stranger a glance before hurrying inside.“Hey—!” the person grumbled behind her.But Lena was already gone.Her stomach twisted harder the moment she stepped into the restaurant.The soft lighting,and the familiar atmosphere. Her eyes landed on him.Theon sat near the window. The moment he spotted her, his face brightened.He lifted a hand, gesturing towards her.That smile only made Lena feel worse.She tightened her grip on her purse before forcing herself to walk over.“I’m glad you came,” Theon said, sitting upright.His gaze swept over her.“I already ordered. The food should be here soon.”Lena sat stiffly. “T-thank you.”Theon frowned. “You okay?”“Yeah, I’m fi— what are you doing?” She flinched feeling his hand on her forehead.“Checking if you’re sick.”Lena swatted his hand away at once. “I’m fine. Just stomach cramps.”Theon le

Chapter 150: The Cracks Between Us

‘What if I make you fall in love with me within those six months?’Theon's voice echoed in Lena's head as she walked out of the restaurant.Her heart felt torn.The cold evening breeze brushed against her face, but it did nothing to cool the heat building behind her eyes.‘Why did it hurt so much?’Lena wiped at her tears with trembling fingers as she walked down the roadside.“Why do I feel like this…” she whispered shakily.Another tear rolled down before she could stop it.“I clearly don’t like him.”Her voice sounded weak, almost unconvinced. “He’s my husband’s cousin.”The words only made her chest ache harder.Before she knew it, her legs gave out.Lena crouched by the roadside, burying her face in her hands as tears poured out uncontrollably.‘What was wrong with me?’She had never been this emotional before, or this confused.Everything felt messy.Her thoughts tangled together until she couldn’t tell where one emotion ended and another began.After what felt like forever, Len
