These past few days, every time someone mentioned her growing belly, Liliana couldn''t help but think about the unresolved situation with Hogan.
She picked up the phone to call the caregiver who was staying at the hospital with Hogan, asking about his condition.
The caregiver''s voice wasced with cheer, "The treatment is showing some results. Although the young master hasn''t woken up yet, he did move his finger this morning. The doctor says it''s a good sign, and he might wake up in a couple of days."
Liliana''s heart sank at this news, though she didn''t let it show. She uttered a few cheerful words and hung up.
Finnian, who seemed to be already aware of the situation, didn''t ask any questions. Liliana pretended to pour herself a cup of tea, her fingers gripping the cup so tightly, fear was washing over her in waves.
As if things couldn''t get worse, Liliana received another call. Whatever was said on the other end startled her so much that she identally dropped the cup.
With a loud crash, the porcin shattered on the floor, the sound echoing through the quiet lounge. Finnian stood up and asked, "What happened?"
Liliana''s arms were trembling, but she tried to keep herposure. She hung up the phone and turned to Finnian, saying, "It''s something with my mom. Nothing serious. I just lost my grip on the cup. I''ll go check on her."
"Alright, I''ll take you."
"No need, I can go by myself," Liliana insisted. "Don''t you have work to do, Finn? You should go take care of that."
It was rare for Liliana to refuse Finnian''spany, and with other matters on his mind, he didn''t think much of it. He nodded, got up, and left.
After leaving the lounge, Finnian didn''t immediately return to the office. Instead, he lingered around the set.
As the primary investor in the film, it was perfectly normal for him to be there, and no one questioned his presence.
From where he stood, Finnian had a clear view of Amara''s dressing room. The door was shut tight, and he had no idea when it might open.
Despite trying to convince himself otherwise, he knew he was hoping to see that door open.
Even if he saw Amara, he wouldn''t go and talk to her. Just a glimpse from afar was enough for him.
Two crew members passed by,
speaking in hushed tones. "I''ve had a
stomachache all day, and no
medicine seems to work But it''s so
busy here, I can''t afford to take a day off It''s driving me nuts." s
The other replied, "Isn''t Amara also having stomach issues? I heard she was in
pain all morning. You both got a rough deal."
"Amara''s not feeling well?" Finnian didn''t hesitate to stop the two crew members, his expression concerned.
Caught off guard by being
addressed by the investor himself, the two crew members were a bit nervous but nodded, "Yeah, I heard Amara''s stomach is bothering her. She hasn''t eaten anything..." s
Before they could finish, Finnian''s brow furrowed, and he strode purposefully towards Amara''s dressing room.
The two crew members exchanged puzzled nces.
What was going on? Mr. Everly seemed quite worried about his ex-wife. Wasn''t he supposed to be into Liliana now?<fnc> Official source is f?ndnovel</fnc>
Amara had been suffering from stomach pain all morning, so much so that she couldn''t work and had to lie down to ease the difort.
Suddenly, the door swung open, and someone hurried inside, startling her. She opened her eyes.
In the blink of an eye, Finnian was at her bedside pulling her into his
arms viesn''t
Is your stomach hurting he asked, concern evident in his voice. s
