Her fifth daughter died, so she deleted his bloodline. novel Chapter 30

Chapter 11

Half a year earlier, after leaving New York, I had chosen London in the end.

The news industry there was thriving, and there were so many journalists I had admired

for years.

At first, I barely slept.

Night after night, I woke from nightmares drenched in sweat.

In every dream, Adrian’s face was cold and distant.

In every dream, I saw the mangled remains of the baby we had lost.

The only way I could survive it was by burying myself in work and study.

If I kept moving, I didn’t have to think.

If I kept learning, I didn’t have to feel.

Time really was medicine.

Slowly, the nightmares came less often.

Then one night, I slept all the way through.

By the end, whole stretches of time passed without me thinking of New York at all.

Once a month, I still went to the cemetery to see the child who had never gotten the

chance to be born.

One day, after another visit, I ran into Julian by accident on the road back.

That was when I learned the boy I had sponsored years ago had grown up.

Not only that he had built a career and a company of his own.

When he found out what I had been through, he was furious enough to book a flight

back on the spot and beat the hell out of the man responsible.

I stopped him.

After that, he kept showing up.

Sometimes with a new dish he wanted me to try.

Sometimes with a story he thought would make me laugh.

I knew he liked me.

But ten years of love was not something I could put down overnight.

So I pretended not to notice.

Everything changed during a terrorist attack.

When the gunfire started, Julian stepped in front of me without hesitation.

Later, he deliberately drew the attackers away from me even though it meant risking

his life.

I watched him get pushed into surgery covered in blood.
