CH. 51Andrianne paced back and forth in the living room, her eyes glued to the clock on the wall. It was already past 11p.m, and Lucas was nowhere in sight. She bit her lower lip nervously, wondering where he could be. Lucas had never stayed out this late before without letting her know. She tried calling his phone, but it went straight to voicemail.Her mind began to race, imagining all sorts of scenarios. Maybe he had gotten into an accident, or worse. She tried to calm herself down, telling herself that he was a responsible adult who could take care of himself. But the anxiety continued to gnaw at her.As the minutes turned into hours, Andrianne's worry turned to agitation. She began pacing more erratically, biting her nails and fidgeting with her hair. She wondered if he was with Emily, his girlfriend. A pang of jealousy shot through her, but she pushed it aside, reminding herself that they were not together anymore.She tried calling him again, but still no answer. Andrianne dec

CH 53.Once Jackie had left, Steve turned his attention back to Andrianne. "You know what, Andrianne? I really thought you were smarter than this. I didn't think I'd have to kidnap your husband…. Oops I mean contracted husband to get what I want from you."Andrianne's heart was pounding in her chest. She couldn't believe it was Steve who had done this. She had trusted him, confided in him, and now he had betrayed her in the worst possible way."Why? Why did you do this?" she managed to ask, her voice barely above a whisper."You know, Andrianne," Steve began, his voice shaky with emotion. "I've always loved you. Even when we were kids, I knew you were the one for me. And when we reconnected, it was like fate brought us together again."Andrianne tried to step back, but Steve took a step forward, keeping the gun trained on her. "You can't deny it, Andrianne. The way we were together, it was like nothing else mattered. I still feel that way, even after everything that's happened."Andri

CH 55.Andrianne sat in the hospital waiting room with her head in her hands, trying to keep her composure. She couldn't believe what had happened, and she was scared for Lucas. Suddenly, a doctor walked towards her and she looked up."Mrs. Ross?" the doctor asked kindly."Yes, that's me," Andrianne replied, standing up nervously."I'm Dr. Johnson. Lucas has just come out of surgery and is in recovery. He's stable now, but it was a close call."Andrianne felt a wave of relief wash over her. "Thank you, doctor. Can I see him?""Yes, of course. But you need to understand that he's still very weak and will need a lot of rest.""I understand. Thank you so much," Andrianne said gratefully.The doctor led her to Lucas's room and Andrianne couldn't believe how pale he looked. She took his hand in hers and felt tears prick at her eyes."Hey, you," she said softly.Lucas slowly opened his eyes and looked at her. "Hey," he said weakly.Andrianne squeezed his hand. "How are you feeling?""Like I

CH 57.Lucas slowly stirred and his eyelids fluttered open. He blinked a few times, trying to adjust to the bright light in the hospital room. He turned his head to the side and saw Andrianne asleep in the chair next to his bed, her head resting on the edge of the bed.He smiled softly, feeling a rush of warmth in his chest at the sight of her. Despite everything that had happened, he was grateful to have her by his side. He tried to move his arm to reach out to her, but a sharp pain shot through his body, reminding him of his injuries.He winced and closed his eyes for a moment, taking deep breaths to calm himself down. He opened his eyes again and looked back at Andrianne. She looked peaceful in her sleep, her breathing slow and steady.He cleared his throat, trying to get her attention without startling her. "Hey," he said in a low voice.Andrianne's eyes slowly opened, and she looked at him with a mix of surprise and relief. "Hey, you're awake," she said softly, sitting up straigh

CH 59.Just then, the door opened and the doctor walked in. He smiled when he saw Lucas up and about, and quickly got to work checking his vital signs and making sure he was ready to be discharged."Well, Mr. Smith, it looks like you're ready to go home," the doctor said with a smile. "I've written you a prescription for some medication to take at home, and I want you to come back for a follow-up appointment in a week."Lucas nodded his understanding as Andrianne packed up his belongings. He was relieved to be leaving the hospital, eager to get back to his own bed and start the process of healing.As they walked out of the hospital, Lucas took a deep breath of fresh air and let out a contented sigh. Andrianne looked over at him with concern, wondering if he was feeling okay."I'm just so glad to be out of there," Lucas explained. "I'm feeling much better, and I can't wait to get home."Andrianne smiled at him, happy to see him in better spirits. She knew that he had been through a lot
