a storm.

Sadie gazed at Jim, her eyes brimming with gratitude, tears gleaming as though she had clung to a lifeline in the midst of

the tears,

“I won’t forget this–I’ll pay you back when the time comes,” she stated, her voice thick with emotion, each word laden

with a raw sincerity.

Jim caught the shimmer of genuine thanks in her eyes, feeling an unexpected warmth bloom in his chest.

He shifted his gaze away, an awkward gesture as he cleared his throat.

“We don’t have to talk about that yet,” he replied, his voice striving for calm. “How are you feeling right now?”

He paused, a concerned look crossing his face before continuing, “You need to focus on your health first.”

As he spoke, Jim gently began to check Sadie’s condition.

His hands were careful as he listened to her heartbeat and delicately touched her slightly swollen belly. His brow furrowed deeply with concern.

“The fetus is showing signs of distress,” he announced, withdrawing his hand with a grave tone. “If the situation worsens,

you might start bleeding, and that could be dangerous.”

At his words, a chill ran through Sadie, her complexion turning ghostly pale.

She gripped the bedsheet tightly, her knuckles whitening, a storm of fear and anxiety swirling in her heart.

Jim observed Sadie’s tense posture, his heart twinging with sympathy.

He considered her condition thoughtfully, then offered a gentle suggestion. “It’s a mild fever, nothing too concerning. Put

on a cooling patch, and I’ll prescribe something to help with the fever and keep your pregnancy stable. You have to take it,”

he advised, his voice calm and reassuring.

He hesitated briefly before adding, “Once you’re feeling better, I’ll help you get out of here safely.”

Sadie paused, absorbing his words, then gave a slow, determined nod.

The child growing inside her was her anchor in this vast, uncertain world. She couldn’t risk anything harming her unborn

baby.

She needed to forge a secure future for them both, a life far away from Noah’s destructive reach. That meant vanishing completely–no traces left behind.

However, there were things to settle first. She needed to ensure Laura’s well–being and advance the secretive project Roy had promised to orchestrate for her, sidestepping Noah completely.

Success in these tasks would mean a steady income, crucial for sustaining her and her child’s future.

As Jim began to pack his medical kit, signaling his departure, Sadie felt a surge of urgency.

She wanted to get in touch with Alex

Her plan to vanish–disappear without a trace–would stand a better chance with Alex’s help.

With everything hanging in the balance, he was the only one she dared to trust–sharp–minded and always in control.

Jim paused, his brow furrowed in thought as he seemed to grasp her intention.

From the inner pocket of his crisply tailored suit jacket, he pulled out a phone, his slender fingers gliding smoothly over its

screen to unlock it. He extended it toward Sadie with a steady hand, his voice even but imbued with a quiet resolve.
