Broken to finding love Chapter 9: Leonard’s concern
Leonard sprang to his feet, rushing out of his office. I will be there soon. He hung up immediately not waiting for Lucy’s reply.Thirty minutes later, he was standing in front of the ICU room. He does not know what’s the matter with him. He was not an impulsive person, but since he met her, it’s like he had turned into a different person. “Hey Mr. Banks, you are here.” Dr Sophia’s voice brought him out of his reverie.“Why aren’t you entering already?” She questioned as he faced her.Leonard blinked, snapping back to reality. “Oh sorry, Dr Sophia, I was lost in my thoughts.”Dr Sophia’s eyes sparkled with curiosity. I presume it’s about Jane?”Leonard’s cheeks warmed slightly, but he nodded, confirming her suspicions.Dr Sophia’s eyes sparkled seeing the embarrassed Leonard. Who would have thought the ruthless billionaire also has a day when he feels embarrassed.“You care deeply about her, don’t you?” She said while smiling.Leonard was silent, unsure of how to respond to this. “Le

After the call with his assistant, Leonard didn’t bother telling Jane and Lucy goodbye before he left the hospital. He took a long stride towards his car in the parking lot. He couldn’t explain the turmoil brewing inside him.His driver, James, had already opened the car door as he saw him approaching.“Where to sir?” James asked Leonard after he slid into the backseat.“To the office.” Leonard replied curtly.As the car pulled out of the hospital parking lot, Leonard's phone buzzed.“Leonard, where are you?” Lucy called after noticing that Leonard had left the hospital.Leonard hesitated, unsure of how to respond. Would he tell her that he left just because he was angry hearing Jane say she loved someone other than him. That sounds crazy.“Something came up at the office. I had to rush back.” He finally said.Is everything okay? Lucy asked with concern. Leonard's gaze drifted out of the window. Everything is fine. Just a document that needed my signature urgently. “Okay then. Thank

“Hi Jane,” Dr. Sophia said with a warm smile. “How are you feeling today?”“Better, thanks to you.” Jane replied with a forced smile.Dr. Sophia nodded. “You are welcome Jane. I’m glad you are recovering well.”After another series of checkups, Dr. Sophia gave Jane instructions of what she shouldn’t do for the meantime before she left.Jane and Lucy didn’t continue their earlier discussion. They just sat quietly in the ward.Not long after, Lucy's phone rang. The caller ID indicated it was Dylan calling. She excused herself as she went to receive the call.Jane was deep in thought, her mind drifting to that night on that bridge, where the kind Leonard saved her from committing suicide. Her lips couldn’t help curling up remembering her arguments with him on the bridge that night. “How stupid Jane.” She whispered to herself.Her gaze drifted to the hospital window, watching the city bustle below. Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the door opening.She thought it was Lucy, bu

At Leonard’s office.After a long stressful day at the office, Leonard was prepared to work overnight as usual, but his mind keeps on drifting to Jane’s pictures that are displayed on his desk.Leonard’s face lingered on Jane's smiling face in the picture, his thoughts consumed by her. He couldn’t focus on the reports in front of him.A soft knock was heard as Rachel opened his office door. By now almost all the employees are off work. It’s late already. She was also preparing to leave the office after finishing her work. Knowing her boss would still be here working overtime as usual,she wanted to ask if he needed anything before she called it a day.Sir, did you need anything? She asked, closing the door behind her.Leonard shook his head. “No Rachel, you can leave.” As Rachel departed, Leonard's gaze returned to Jane’s pictures.He recalled their encounter on the bridge the day he saved her. Her desperation, and his instinctive response.“Why was he drawn to her? He stood, pacing a

Two months later.Jane sat in Leonard’s luxurious living room, sipping her coffee. She had been living with him since she was discharged from the hospital. This is because she doesn’t have anywhere to stay. She can’t even go back home, due to her misdeeds.And Lucy, who she should have stayed with, is living together with her boyfriend Dylan, so she had to go with the last option, which is to stay with Leonard.As the heiress of the Lockwood empire, she had properties at her disposal where she could stay, but she couldn’t go there for now, so as not to alert her family of her return. She is not ready to meet them yet.As Jane pondered her situation, Leonard entered the room, his presence commanding attention. "Good morning, Jane.""Morning, Leonard," she replied, her voice soft."I hope you slept well?" he asked, sitting beside her.Jane nodded, feeling a mix of emotions. Gratitude for Leonard's kindness, guilt for imposing on him, and anxiety about her uncertain future."Leonard, I..

Jason's mind wandered back to the fateful arguments they had a year ago, the memories still etched vividly in his mind. He recalled the determination in his daughter's eyes, the fiery passion in her voice, as she stood firmly against the arranged marriage he had planned for her."No, Father, I won't do it!" Jane exclaimed, her voice trembling with emotion. "I won't marry some man I've never met, just to secure the family's business interests. I won’t involve myself in any arranged marriage whether you like it or not. I won’t be involved in your business deals of using your daughter for your own selfish gain.”How dare you talk to me like that? If you don’t fulfil my wish, I will disown you as my daughter. You won’t be getting any of my properties as a Lockwood. The man shouted as his voice shook with anger.“If that’s the solution to me not getting married to someone you arranged for me, someone I don’t love, then I ceased being your daughter from today onward”. After saying this, sh

Not knowing about the commotion at home, Jane was busy dressing up for her reunion with her family after more than a year.Jane smoothed out her dress, checking herself in the mirror. It had been over a year since she'd last seen her family. She took a deep breath, preparing for the emotional reunion.Just as Jane finished adjusting her hair, Leonard badge into her room, his expression serious. "Jane, I don’t think it’s right to meet your family for now.”Jane's heart skipped a beat. "What do you mean by that?” Her voice trembled with emotions."It's about your return to your family," Leonard said, his voice measured. "I'm afraid it's not possible... at least, not yet."Jane's face fell, disappointment washing over her. "What happened?"Leonard hesitated before speaking. "Someone's been using your disappearance to taunt your family, demanding ransom in exchange for your safe return."Jane's eyes widened in shock. "That's impossible! I'm right here, safe and sound."Leonard nodded. "I

The designated time arrived, and right on cue, a figure emerged from the shadows.“Drop it there, and raise your hands up.” A lady voice sounded behind Desmond who was holding the bag of cash.
