Escape From My Step Brother's Dangerous Obsession (Skylar and Callias) novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127 

Chapter 127 

Third POV 

Lukas felt a mix of anger and frustration. He turned his head sharply and refused to look at Skylar anymore. His heart sank to the lowest point. “No need. We’re almost at Hill Crest One Residence. The family doctor is already there.” He said. 

After he finished speaking, he tried to control his emotions, not wanting to lose his temper. The car sped up to over a hundred kilometers per hour and rushed towards Hill Crest One Residence. 

To be honest, Lukas was not only infuriated at being interrupted during such a moment of passion, but he was also frustrated by his wounded pride. 

However, what can he do? He can’t bear to watch Skylar suffering like this, but she doesn’t want to be taken care of. 

What kind of woman does Lukas really want? Why did he have to take advantage of her vulnerability? That would only make him lose face. 

Moreover, he had never been fixated on anyone. He simply just wanted to help her out. 

Skylar’s mind was muddled, but she deeply remembered that she must not have any improper thoughts about Lukas. She forgot the prenuptial agreement they had made before they got married, which required them to fulfill their marital obligations. 

However, even in such a state, she managed to come to her senses and realized that Lukas might not have any lingering thoughts 

about her. His touch, even under these circumstances, could awaken her. 

Perhaps, in this lifetime, she would never experience such affection from him again. 

The car soon arrived at Hill Crest One Residence. 

Although Lukas was infuriated, he still took the initiative to carry Skylar out of the car. 

But when Skylar’s arm wrapped around his neck, and her scorching breath sprayed against his neck and shoulders, his body suddenly stiffened. His breath became erratic, and he felt a sense of loss of control. 

Lukas closed his eyes, quickly carried her inside the medical center, and headed upstairs. 

The doctor examined Skylar, dressed her arms wound, gave her the medicine he brought, and administered a sedative before leaving. 

Lukas escorted the doctor out. 

“Is there anything wrong with her body?” Lukas’s expression was gloomy. 

The doctor replied, “There’s nothing major. The medicine Miss Lopez took is a slow–acting drug based on your description. It means the initial effects of the drug are not too noticeable. By the time it’s discovered, the drug has already spread through the bloodstream, the effect of gastric lavage won’t be that big anymore.” 

He paused for a moment before continuing, “That’s why I suggest that you, Mr. Strakovski, bring her home. Besides, the ingredients of this type of drug are generally the same. The medicine I brought is specially formulated by me, and as long as it’s not the latest development on the market, my antidote should be effective against these types of drugs.” 

The doctor had served many upper–class families as their personal physician, so he had encountered such situations frequently. He constantly improved the prescription based on the drugs he came across, and the antidote he brought would generally work against

such drugs. 

Lukas felt somewhat relieved upon hearing this and sighed. 

The doctor looked at him. “Lastly, Mr. Strakovski, pay attention. If Miss Lopez’s condition worsens, you’ll have to help her endure it, or she’ll have to endure it herself. Even if you take her to the hospital, the drug’s components will need to be analyzed, and it will take some time to find a solution.” 

Lukas nodded. “I understand.” 

He thought to himself that even if her condition worsened, Skylar would endure it herself. She had already shown that on the way 

here. 

After sending the doctor away, Lukas received a call from Elias. 

“Lukas, is Miss Lopez okay? I saw you carrying her when you left. Were you two together?” Elias’s tone was casual. 

His gaze had been focused on Ava, so he hadn’t paid much attention to Skylar. 

Only now did he remember what Lukas had said about Skylar having low blood sugar. 

Lukas’s face darkened considerably. “She drank something problematic at the birthday banquet.” 

Elias’s playful expression froze instantly. “Really? Who would dare to do such a thing on that kind of occasion? Weren’t you with her 

the whole time?” 

Lukas hesitantly said, “I still don’t know who made the move, but it’s best not to let me find out.‘ 

Although he and Skylar were only married by certificate, anyone who dared to scheme against him would have to pay the price. 

Moreover, after feeling so frustrated because of Skylar, Lukas was determined to take his anger out on the person who was 

responsible for this. 

After ending the call with Elias, Lukas immediately called Martins to investigate who had tampered with the drinks that night. 

Once he finished the call, he went back to the bedroom to check on Skylar. 

In the short time he was away, Skylar’s flushed face seemed to have faded slightly. 

Lukas could tell that the medicine brought by the family doctor had indeed worked. 

The next morning, Lukas was awakened by his phone’s ringing. 

He picked up the call, assuming it was Martins with the results of the investigation. 

To his surprise, it was his father, Cillian Van Eimeren, on the other end of the line.
