Chapter 59

Aurora wasn’t sure how to respond to Lucas‘ concern, so she turned away slightly. “This whole thing blew up so much. That person probably wouldn’t dare show up again.”

Lucas sighed inwardly but didn’t press the issue. “Alright. Let’s go home.”

He had already instructed people to investigate the stalker. Until they had answers,

he saw what had caught her attention–the dessert aisle, specifically the shelves lined with various

So, she wants chocolate?

“Sir, your fish is ready.”

Lucas turned back for a moment to collect it.

When he looked again, Aurora’s body wavered.

She stumbled slightly, nearly collapsing.

Fortunately, she caught herself against the railing.

Her hand lifted to her forehead, checking for warmth.

She didn’t feel feverish

Probably just something minor. I’ll be fine after a nap.

“Fish is ready,” Lucas’s voice called out again.

Aurora quickly straightened, trying to compose herself. “Alright. You can pick up anything else you need–it’s your kitchen,

Lucas could tell she was eager to get home, so he made quick work of selecting ingredients.
