All Chapters of Taming the Arrogant Billionaire: Chapter 41 - Chapter 49

Savannah’s POV“Savannah, look at me! Get up off the floor, baby, breathe!” my mother said, reaching for my shoulders, her voice cracking with panic. My father barked orders at a nearby nurse for a chair, but I barely registered any of it.The suffocating guilt was a weight crushing my whole body, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t forgive myself. While my mother tried to calm me, I heard footsteps and turned to finally see Richard and Eleanor Montgomery walking toward us.I felt a bit of relief seeing them. It meant they still cared enough to come themselves instead of sending someone else.“Where is he?” Richard demanded as he turned to the doctor. “Where is my son, and what is the status of his condition?”

Savannah's POVTwo full days had crawled past since I gave Julian my blood. We were told he was supposed to wake up at any moment after the procedure but till now, he still wasn’t awake.Although the transfusion had stabilized his vitals, his body remained trapped in a coma, which scared me for a different reason entirely.I refused to leave his bedside, which surprised our parents, since the last thing they knew, we couldn’t stand the sight of each other. But I didn’t care. I spent days and nights in the hospital chair, eyes fixed on the monitor, taking it upon myself to care for him.Every half hour, I pressed a cold, wet cloth against his pale forehead to keep his temperature down.“You need to wake up, Montgomery,&rdquo

Savannah’s POVThree days later, Julian was cleared for discharge. He was recovering faster than anyone expected, including me.As the nurse wheeled Julian out toward the waiting vehicle, the physician pulled me slightly to the side with his expression serious as he looked at his tablet before looking back at me.“Mrs. Montgomery, your husband’s lab results are looking excellent, and his blood counts have stabilized beautifully thanks to the transfusion,” the doctor stated in a low tone. “However, his internal organs are not fully recovered yet, and his immune system remains heavily compromised. He cannot push his limits under any circumstances, and I am instructing you to take thorough care of him over the next few weeks. He needs round-the-clock monitoring, steady meals, and strict rest to avoid complicati

Savannah’s POVMorning came earlier than I could have liked because opening my eyes, I blinked against the light streaming in from the window, then turned to find Julian only a few inches away.The rise and fall of his chest was the first thing I checked. Then I let myself breathe.He was still fast asleep.I quietly slid out of bed, checked that I hadn’t woken him, and headed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.“I can at least manage a basic breakfast,” I muttered to myself, pulling a carton of fresh eggs with more confidence than I had any right to, along with a package of bacon and a container of pancake mix from the fully stocked refrigerator.The problem was that while I w

Savannah’s POV“So tell me what you’ve been up to?” Fiona asked.Her smile was the same as yesterday. Perfectly easy. Perfectly warm.“We have been very busy, and a lot happened,” I said, trying to be as vague as I could. “I caught a cold too, so we’ve been keeping a low profile.”Fiona gave me a sympathetic look. “Oh, that sounds absolutely draining. No wonder you are jumping at shadows, Savannah. You see, you really are running on empty because last winter, before you guys even moved to the line, I woke up in the middle of the night terrified because I heard scratching right outside my own kitchen window. I was convinced it was a prowler and I was so terrified but when morning came, it was just an animal.”
