Matthew’s gaze was cool and detached. “Didn’t your discharge instructions include getting more rest?”

“I know my own body best,” Lucas insisted stubbornly.

Matthew replied with a calm edge, “If I recall correctly, you just consumed a medicinal tonic specifically formulated for convalescence. Does that sound like someone in peak health?”

“That broth is restorative–it’s beneficial for anyone, not just the sick,” Lucas argued.

“But she only prepares it for those who are unwell,” Matthew countered pointedly.

Lucas was momentarily speechless, frustration bubbling up. So, Matthew was just determined to keep him in the “sick person” category, was he?

Damn it, this guy must have shown up specifically to sabotage things!

Matthew shifted his focus to Arabella. “As someone with medical training, you understand his current condition, correct?”

Arabella didn’t overthink it. She looked at Lucas and answered honestly, “You really do need proper rest to recover fully.” “But I genuinely feel fine,” Lucas protested, his heart sinking as he tried to persuade her to let him stay.

“Andy, arrange for a car,” Matthew said, offering no further opportunity for debate.

“Yes, sir,” Andy replied, promptly hailing a taxi for Lucas.

Arabella didn’t object further. She looked at Lucas and said, “Go home and rest properly. I won’t schedule any tutoring sessions for the next few days either. We can resume once you’ve regained your strength.”

“Arabella, I really am okay,” Lucas said, the thought of not seeing her for days making his chest ache. D

“Even if you feel okay, you still need to go home and rest,” Arabella said firmly, placing his bag in the taxi and waiting for him to get

Seeing there was no room for negotiation, Lucas could only get into the car with a sulky expression.

“Two days of rest and I’ll be good as new. I’ll call you then,” Lucas conceded.

Arabella agreed. “Alright.”

Somewhat mollified, Lucas decided two days was bearable,

He waved to Arabella from the window “I’m off, then ”

“Get plenty of rest,” Arabella reminded him.

As the taxi pulled away, Lucas slumped back against the seat with a heavy sigh, feeling thoroughly wronged and frustrated,

This is all Matthew’s fault. How utterly infuriating!

Once Lucas was gone, Arabella turned to Matthew. “Mr. Stewart, I have an urgent situation at my company. I need to leave immediately.”

With that, Arabella got into her car and drove swiftly away from the hospital.

“Mr. Stewart, shall we?” Andy said, opening the car door.

After settling into the back seat, Matthew leaned back, his expression icy.

After a long moment, he instructed, “Find out what’s happening at her company.”

Arabella had seemed genuinely pressed for time.

“Yes, sir,” Andy replied.

The car started and gradually merged into traffic, leaving the hospital behind.

Upon arriving, Arabella went straight to her office.

“Ms. Hamilton,” Chloe greeted her, her face pale. “It happened very suddenly. I’ve already initiated an internal inquiry, but we’re still waiting for initial findings.”

“When was this discovered?” Arabella asked.

About half an hour ago. I contacted you as soon as we confirmed the breach,” Chloe explained truthfully.

Arabella’s tone was cool and direct. “Walk me through the details.”

“Yes,” Chloe replied, immediately launching into the report. “Mr. Clement discovered it first. As he has the master access codes to the secure R&D vault, he went to retrieve some reference materials as usual this morning. He noticed anomalies with the security ogs right away. Upon a physical check, he confirmed that the finalized formula for our cardiac treatment drug–the one in the final stage of development–was missing”

Arabella’s eyes narrowed slightly, her demeanor turning frosty.

A leak of proprietary research was a critical incident. It represented months of intensive work by the entire development team

“So, from the time of the last verified access until discovery, only Mr. Clement had been to the vault?” Arabella frowned. She was confident Bruce wasn’t responsible, but the timeline was concerning

“That’s correct,” Chloe confirmed “Mr Clement performed a thorough inspection Although the intrusion was professionally done, there were clear signs that the vault’s electronic lock had been bypassed.

“So, the working theory is an external breach and theft,” Chloe summarized
