His heart ached immensely every time the thought of not seeing her or hearing her voice in the future surfaced in his mind. He would even be fine with her daily nagging at him as long as she lived.
After resting in the lab for a long time, he slowly got up.
It was already midnight when Spencer came to fetch him.
The latter immediately went to support him as soon as he saw his fragile state. “How are you, Mr. Nolan?”
“I’m fine,” Lucas replied weakly. I need to leave quickly. I don’t want Ashlyn to see me like this.
Spencer nodded and he led him to the car and left.
A black Bentley whizzed through the highway in the middle of the night.
Spencer drove Lucas to the nearest private hospital.
The price was considerably high since the hospital practiced extreme confidentiality.
The doctor was shocked when he saw Lucas’ blood-stained chest.
“How did you get this wounded?”
Lucas refused to reply to him as his pale face remained expressionless.
“Please admit him here,” Spencer informed coolly.
After they completed all the procedures, Lucas laid in the VIP ward. He finally closed his eyes and fell into the endless darkness.
No matter how strong his body was, in the end, he was but a human.
Spencer stayed by his side as he stared at the usually strong man who had been reduced to such a weakened state.
He shook his head in frustration.
Mr. Nolan’s affection for Ms. Berry is unbeatable.
The next morning, Ashlyn fluttered her eyes open in the lounge area within the lab. Rubbing her eyes, she noticed that it was already eight o ‘clock.
The faint sunlight seeped in through the gaps between the curtains.
She sat up only to find the poison already spread to her neck.
If it continued spreading, it would undoubtedly reach her mouth, nose, and lastly, to her brain. Lucas would be infected if he kissed me.
It didn’t spread to the mouth and nose before.
