His Bride: Between Billionaire and The Prince のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

"ARHHH…""What?" Lila was startled by her intern's sudden scream, making the pencil in her hand slip. The two of them were in the lab alone, doing their additional work. "What's wrong with you? If I didn't know your weirdness, I might think that you see a ghost here.""Not a ghost. It's the creepy man. He came again." Susan looked down, avoiding the window in case the creepy man caught her eyes. "Yesterday he came to me but I managed to escape. I don't know what he wanted from me."Fear was clouding Susan's mind, she forgot that the lab's window was a one-way mirror, people on the inside could see the outside but not the other way around. "Don't say nonsense, Susan. There's only the two of us here." Lila started to feel goosebumps.The horror on Susan's face didn't change. "The campus isn't safe anymore. How come they let suspicious men like him in?"Seeing Susan's trembling state, Lila sensed that fear slowly managed to creep i

Andrew held the car door for Lila. He waited for her to come out of the car."Do we really have to go inside?" Lila didn't move. "We can go to some food stall by the river, or ice cream. I still have money to buy you dinner, as long as it's not in Angela Barlow.""I can take you for dinner there, we'll go after the party. But first, since you look stunning in that dress, why don't we go inside and make them jealous of you?"Snorting, Lila got out of the car. "There's only you and I here. No need to tell a lie. And I don't want to go to Angela Barlow, because I can't afford it."Andrew furrowed. Why couldn't she afford it? She had the gold card. And even if she didn't use her gold card, she was with him though. What's the problem?Shrugging, he followed her inside the restaurant where her cousin held the party.As soon as they were inside, all eyes nearby turned to them. Making Lila uncomfortable."It's your fault. They'r

"Doctor Phillips hasn't come yet." Max reported as he saw Andrew walking out from his private elevator.Andrew hummed at his assistant's report. He came to his office near lunch time, bringing two cups of ice chocolate from Angela Barlow café. He knew Lila would love to have a good taste of it.A woman like Lila couldn't understand flowers. Their language was not flowers, it was something that they could taste, sometimes bitter and sometimes sweet. And sometimes, he could read her like an open book. All the things that he recognized about her had nothing to do with his experience with women, because he had none. It was based on observing her for thirteen years.In his other hand, he held a small sterile box. A bag of his blood was in it. The blood that he had promised Lila to give it to her.Speaking of promise, he also promised her to give that scumbag ex of hers a punishment."Give me all the National Bank's directors' names. The latest

"They want the exchange tomorrow." Told Andrew as soon as he ended the call."Becky!" President Preston held his wife. She fainted for the second time.The first time happened after President Preston and his wife watched the record of CCTV footage in Andrew's office.The mood then was so tense. Henry and his team lost track of the car that had Lila in it. While Evan's men managed to gather and inform of possible places to hide from all over the city and the borders. But without any trace, they couldn't determine the search point.Andrew knew he had to stay calm and rational to fix this situation. But, there was always but in any tense situation, which he couldn't take because it felt disturbingly like a dead end. And it scared him like hell.Things that neatly arranged on his fancy desk were broken and shattered on the floor. If Henry and Evan didn't hold him, he might break his desk or even his hand as well.A phone call on the

"It's been two days. When will she be awake?" Asked Andrew nicely but in an impatient tone.One of Andrew's attending doctors was assigned to take very good care of Lila in Andrew's mansion. She was placed in the largest room on the mansion's top floor which had direct access to the helipads on the rooftop.Since Andrew decided to protect the information about his rare blood type's condition, he needed a medical team to treat him or his cousin if they got hurt. That was why he created the top floor's room similar to a hospital. But the room remained unused until now."Her recovery is impressive. She should be awake anytime soon." Answered the doctor. True, all Lila's senses were back including her consciousness, but drowsiness still clouded over her nerve system.Slowly she tried to open her eyes, but only managed to make it half open. She could recognize the silhouette of whose face that was looking at her with a sad expression even tho
