<b>The </b>drug <b>would </b><b>only </b>be effective for three to four days at <b>most</b><b>, </b><b>and </b><b>it </b>had <b>to </b>be administered continuously to keep <b>Aurora </b><b>under</b>.
But that man <b>was </b>watching too closely there was no way he could stay by her side all the time.
Gary had <b>been </b>waiting for the right moment to act..
Now that the man had finally stepped out, Gary seized the chance.
He hid in a corner, then slipped through the window into the hospital room.
Staring at Aurora’s stunning face, he couldn’t help but feel it was a waste.
<b>She </b>was so beautiful, yet all he could do was look.
He’d been craving her for a long time.
But that man had been watching too closely.
He hadn’t gotten even the slightest opportunity.
With no other choice, he quickly prepared the injection.
He had to finish what Tessa had ordered<b>, </b>only then could he report back.
As long as his involvement stayed hidden, he could keep his position at the hospital.
Looking down at her face, he muttered quietly,
“Don’t me me for this. <b>If </b>you must me someone, me your heartless sister. I’m just following orders.
“If you wake up, it’ll be bad for all of us. Just stay here and rest. Honestly, it’s better to be asleep than to wake up and face everything waiting for you.”
With that, Gary didn’t hesitate.
He plunged the needle into Aurora’s body.
But as he was leaving, he ran straight into Lucas returning to the room.
The man’s heavy footsteps echoed like a war drum<b>, </b>crashing against Gary’s chest.
He panicked instantly.
Looking around, he pulled on a cap and mask, lowered his head, and slipped out, avoiding the surveince cameras as best he.
could.
As Lucas entered, he caught a glimpse of someone’s back disappearing down the hallway.
He frowned. Was someone here doing rounds at this hour?
And if so, why hadn’t they stayed in the room?
When he had been there, no one ever came to check in.
The more he thought about it, the more suspicious, it all felt.
It was like a thick fog had settled over everything, surrounding him from all sides.
This First Light Hospital had always enjoyed a good reputation, but now, Lucas couldn’t help but feel something was <b>off</b>.
How could a case of acute gastroenteritis leave someone unconscious for two or three days?
<b>He </b><b>began </b><b>to </b><b>suspect there </b><b>was </b>something shady going on in this hospital.
<b>Was </b><b>there </b><b>a </b><b>hidden </b><b>agenda </b><b>at </b>y<b>? </b>Or was this deliberately targeted at Aurora?
His <b>lips </b>remained pressed into a tight line.
His distrust toward the hospital only deepened as time went on.
<b>He </b>had decided–once his own medical team arrived, they would get to the bottom of this.
Until then, <b>he </b>wouldn’t trust a single word from anyone in this ce.
Meanwhile<b>, </b>Gary was trying to calm his nerves as he left, patting his chest again and again just to catch his breath.
That man’s aura was downright terrifying.
<b>He </b>had never met a family member of a patient like that before.
This <b>was </b>the first time.
Everyone he’d dealt with before had just been regr people.
But this time, not only was the patient someone special, even her family member wasn’t ordinary.
At the very least<b>, </b>Gary had never encountered someone like him before, especially those eyes–calm<b>, </b>cold,manding.
One nce was enough to make anyone instinctively lower their gaze.
Just hearing his footsteps earlier had made Gary’s heart feel like it was about to explode.
