Dead at Heart novel

Chapter 748 2/3 Chapter 749 +25 BONUS Chapter 749 Shane looked toward the ICU. His expression hardened. "What's wrong with Jayson? Did something happen to him?" Frowning, he stepped forward for a closer look. "How did he end up in the ICU?" It seemed like Shane had run into them by coincidence. The surprise on his face appeared genuine. Ariel, now composed, didn't look flustered. She glanced at Arthur before turning to Shane. "He sustained some injuries. Fortunately, nothing too serious. You don't need to worry, Shane." Shane responded with mild disapproval. "Jayson's condition looks serious.

Patients aren't admitted to the ICU unless it's critical. Ari, we're family. We're here to help carry the burden. You don't have to face this alone." Arthur stepped forward, subtly blocking Shane's view of Jayson. His tone remained polite. "Mr. Jayson has turned in for the night since it's quite late. Don't worry, Mr. Shane. I'll remind him to call you tomorrow and update you when he's available." Shane studied Arthur closely. He knew of Arthur, of course. Jayson had entrusted him with many important responsibilities.

Assistants and secretaries varied in rank, and Arthur's competence was clearly above average. "What brings you here to the hospital at this hour, Shane?" Staring at Shane intently, Ariel changed the topic. She sounded as though she had only asked the question out of curiosity. Shane replied, "My mom couldn't sleep. She's been suffering from migraines. I brought her here to see a doctor. I didn't expect to run into you." Ariel couldn't refute that. It would be inappropriate to accuse Shane of surveillance after such a statement. "Then stay with your mom and keep her company.

You don't need to worry about Jayson. He's fine." Ariel kept her tone calm and neutral. She had no intention to elaborate more. Shane's gaze lingered on her. "I feel reassured now that you've said that. Just make sure Jayson calls me tomorrow." Ariel nodded. Shane finally turned and walked away. Ariel's expression darkened as she watched him leave. Recalling what Arthur had told her about Bluum Corp's current situation, Ariel was convinced Shane's appearance wasn't a coincidence. He was likely keeping close tabs on Jayson's movements. "Arthur, I'll stay with Jayson.

You should head to the company and monitor the situation. Contact me if anything comes up," Ariel instructed decisively. Arthur understood the urgency. He nodded. "Understood. Leave it to me." After Arthur left, Ariel remained outside Jayson's ward for a long time. Seeing him unconscious, surrounded by silence, made her heart ache. She sniffled quietly.

She'd been terrified when she fell from the building.

Her heart nearly stopped when she saw Jayson rushing forward to catch her. If she could, she would've asked him if he had a death wish. He could've lost his life if things hadn't gone exactly right. She was a grown woman. Though thin, she still had considerable body mass. As the doctor had said, falling from that height could've been fatal. At best, she might have ended up paralyzed. Ariel placed her hand against the glass window, her eyes glazed. She whispered, "Jayson, you're truly impossible ... 11 Outside the hospital, Shane got into his car and stared back at the building.

He hadn't come because of Jayda's migraine. He had ordered his men to monitor Jayson around the clock. Normally, he kept his knowledge of Jayson's movements hidden. But today was different. His men had discovered that Jayson was severely injured. With Jayson temporarily out of commission, Shane felt as if fate had handed him a golden opportunity. His eyes narrowed. As he drove away, he made a phone call. It took a moment for the line to connect. "Is something the matter, Mr. Larkin?" Samson's voice lacked its usual warmth. There was something unsettling about it. Still, Shane chuckled. "Mr.

Pryce, I've stumbled upon a great opportunity. Would you consider working with me again?" Samson snickered. "Do you need me to remind you again? You did a pretty lousy job the last time we worked together." 2/3
