All Chapters of Widowed Billionaire Looking For Love: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

The nurse looked taken aback but then smiled politely and stepped back. He helped Antony lift Claire's IV and placed it on the side hook of the new bed while Antony transferred Claire from the stretcher to the bed the nurse had brought.After Claire was moved, one of the nurses left, leaving Antony with the first nurse, and they both pushed Claire's bed out of the emergency department toward the elevator that would take Claire to her room. After positioning the bed, the nurse politely said goodbye and mentioned that he would return once the lab results were in.Antony surveyed the room he had requested. The VVIP room provided by the hospital seemed quite decent to him. No matter how luxurious a hospital with hotel-like facilities might be, it could never be fully enjoyed by the patients. Still, Antony wanted Claire to feel at least somewhat comfortable. He wanted Claire to feel calm and undisturbed by the cries, whines, and screams of other patients. What disturbed him even more were

Driving at a moderate speed, Antony made his way to his cousin's apartment. He already knew the password to enter, so he acted casually, as if visiting was a regular occurrence for him, even though the number of times he had actually been there could be counted on one hand.He entered the password for the door lock. Altezza was sitting at the bar table with her laptop open in front of her. She briefly lifted her head before returning her focus to the screen."What's so important that it made you come to Kansas, cousin?" Antony asked as he walked over to the fridge and grabbed a cold drink. Although the apartment was rarely occupied, he knew that his cousin had hired someone to manage it and stock the kitchen and fridge with food—at the very least, drinks and instant meals."If you're worried about me stealing Claire from you, you don't have to be. I won't do it," Altezza replied casually. She shut her laptop and turned in her chair to fully face Antony. "I've actually been planning to

Antony left Altezza after a tough conversation regarding his request for an extension of his stay in Kansas.Yes, he begged Altezza to give him a little more time. Whether or not Claire wanted him to, it was clear that he should not give up before trying.This wasn't about reputation.It's also not about Flavia's desire for Claire to be her stepmother.It's about Antony, who wants Claire by his side for the rest of his life.Antony doesn't care if Claire rejects him. At least, he should try first to convince her to accept him.Antony didn't care if what Gladwin said would come true. That Antony would have to confront Gladwin's mother and Claire. As long as Claire was by his side. As long as she said 'Yes'. He would fight-for her happiness-even if he had to be hated by his own mother-in-law.Love is blind. Antony knew that. But this was where the struggle was.He stepped on the gas deeper and drove faster. There was only one goal. Claire.Antony walked half-run towards Claire's room. T

In the early morning, when Claire woke up, she heard Antony asking for permission to go back to his house for a while to pick up a new stock of clothes and promising to bring Claire a home-made breakfast later. Claire just nodded her head and went back to sleep.But at around seven in the morning, she woke up again. At first he thought the noises in the room were because Antony had returned. But she was quite surprised because it was not Antony, but her eldest brother, Richard."Brother?" Claire asked hoarsely. Her brother who was standing beside her bed turned his head. "When did you come?" She asked again after clearing her throat."Just now." Richard replied casually. Her eldest brother helped Claire to sit down. "Where's Gladwin?" He asked again."Gladwin?" Claire frowned. Richard nodded his head towards the sofa where Antony's old pillow lay. "Be back in a minute." Claire replied ambiguously. "Who told you that I was here?" Claire asked again."Abigail." Richard replied briefly.

In the afternoon, the commotion Gladwin had predicted really happened. Claire's mother came along with Claire's second brother and also her sister-in-law. Luckily, Antony wasn't there because Claire had sent him off to work shortly after Richard's resignation.Claire tried to act natural, as if she had no idea what her mother was planning when she walked in without knocking."Why didn't you tell me you were sick?" Asked her mother who immediately came over and took a look at Claire's condition."I'm fine, the doctor said that I can go home tomorrow." Claire replied flatly. Her second brother also came closer and touched her forehead."Are you really okay now?" He asked with concern.Claire nodded her head in response. "I know I'm the prettiest and most adorable child so when I got sick you guys were really worried about me. But there's really no need for you to fly for hours to see my condition." She said deliberately joking. Her sister-in-law just gave her typical soft smile."Your s
