In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1723

Chapter 1723 Apology From Benson

That morning, John’s body temperature turned extremely high probably due to complications after the surgery. The medical staff panicked. They tried numerous methods and eventually used hormone injections to get the temperature under control.

Looking at John’s pale face, I felt my heart crushed by a heavy stone. After making sure John was asleep, I walked out of the ward to catch some air.

It was quieter over here compared to the general ward. There were a few family members of some patients around, all looking depressed just like me.

The news broadcast in the hall could be heard clearly.

“There have been many cases of missing and kidnapped children today. At present, the police are making every effort to investigate suspicious persons. Please get in touch with the task force immediately if you have relevant information…”

It seemed like the safety of the whole city was at risk. Somehow, I felt I was not suffering alone.

Fortunately, regardless of Ashton’s plan, it was clear to me now that he would not risk the kids. Or else, Nathaniel would have gone after Audrey and Gregory instead of John.

Deep down in my heart, I knew Nathaniel was trying to crush my spirit by going after John.

He figured he could manipulate me easily once my mental state was down. He was trying to control me like what he did to Ashton.

Is Ashton entirely controlled by him now?

I was too overwhelmed with emotions back in the operating theater. Now that I thought of it, Ashton did not need to show up, actually.

I realized that Ashton was trying to remind me to be careful. All his coldness might be a disguise of his care for me.
