“That little punk is going to get it,” Calvin muttered under his breath, still burning with humiliation over being forced to apologize and thank her earlier. Just wait, Arabella. Just wait.

Lucas and Arabella walked into the hospital together.

“Here to visit your brother again?” Lucas asked.

“He’s actually been discharged. I’m just picking up his prescription,” Arabella explained. Then, turning to him, she added, “And thank you for before. If you hadn’t shown up, I might’ve really gotten hurt.”

“Don’t mention it. I couldn’t just stand there and watch you get into trouble,” Lucas replied, feeling a surge of relief. He’d come to the hospital today to pick up medication for Kyle, and it was pure luck that he’d been able to step in before things got worse for Arabella.

“Let me treat you to a meal sometime,” Arabella offered, feeling she owed him a proper thank–you.

“I’ll get it,” Lucas insisted.

Arabella shook her head. “I’m thanking you for helping me. I should be the one paying.”

“I really don’t mind covering it,” he said.

Hearing that, Arabella responded, “If you’re paying, then never mind. I’ll just pick out a thank–you gift for you instead.”

She was the one expressing gratitude–she couldn’t let him foot the bill.

Seeing how firm she was, Lucas finally gave in. “Alright then, you can treat.”

Truth was, he wanted more chances to spend time with her, and he didn’t want to pass up this opportunity. If she insisted on paying, so be it.

Arabella smiled, satisfied. “It’s settled. I’m busy today, but I’ll text you later to figure out a time.”

“Sounds good,” Lucas agreed.

“I should head out now,” Arabella said, knowing Lucas had his own errands at the hospital.

As she walked away, Lucas couldn’t help a faint smile, already looking forward to their plans.

A little while later, Arabella collected the medication and returned to the car.

“Was it hard to find? You were gone a while,” Alfred asked, sounding concerned. He’d almost gotten out to look for her, worried something might have happened.

“Yeah, Arabella, everything okay?” Edward added, equally uneasy about how long she’d taken.

“Just ran into a friend and got talking,” Arabella offered simply, not wanting to worry them.

Hearing that, both of them relaxed. Having her back safe was enough.

Alfred started the engine and pulled out of the hospital lot.

Noticing they weren’t heading home, Edward asked curiously, “Aren’t we going back?”

“I found a place for you, Edward. You’ll be staying on your own from now on–it’ll be better for your recovery,” Arabella explained gently.

Edward was stunned. “You got me a place?!”

“Yeah, don’t worry. Everything’s taken care of. There’ll be someone checking in on you, and you won’t be disturbed. Just focus on resting. I’m sure if you take it easy there, your health will keep improving, and you’ll be able to live like everyone else soon.” No more constant doctor visits, no more being trapped at home.

After hearing her out, Edward swallowed back his refusal.

“Live like everyone else…” Could he really?

“Yes, you’re basically healed. Now it’s all about giving your body time to fully recover. Trust me, you’ll get there,” Arabella said with genuine warmth.

Helping Edward had taken so much from her, but now, finally, she was seeing real progress.

“As long as you rest properly, you’ll be fine. That’s exactly why I don’t want you going back home–that environment isn’t right for recovery right now,” Arabella reasoned.

‘But renting a place costs money, and having someone help out does too. The family’s situation…” Edward hesitated.

He was tempted by what she described, but reality held him back.

‘Don’t stress about money. My performance at work has been really strong, so they moved me to a full–time role early. The pay is good now, really. It’s covered,” Arabella reassured him.

Edward felt a pang of guilt. “You’re my little sister. I should be looking after you, not the other way around. All I’ve been is a burden.”
