Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO Novel

Chapter 651 Chapter 652 He looked a little less cold and defiant, and a little more gentle and obedient. Everyone had noticed it. His phone lay quietly at the side. Whenever Lucas was resting, his phone was always on silent-it was impossible to hear any notifications. Ever since he started staying in this hospital room, he tried to make no noise when entering. He didn't want to disturb Aurora. Even though she'd been unconscious all this time, Lucas never treated her like she was a patient. He always regarded her as if she were completely normal.

+25 BONUS Now, lying beside her bed and watching as she received glucose infusions to keep her vital signs stable, how could he not feel miserable? But right now, the only thing he could do was stay by her side. He honestly hadn't figured out what else he could do. He noticed the room was getting a bit dim, so he opened the curtains and cracked the window for some fresh air. What he didn't realize was that this simple act gave Julian much more freedom of movement. Lucas hadn't even considered that. He'd only wanted to improve the air flow in the room.

He didn't expect that his good intentions would lead to unintended consequences. Just as Lucas was about to climb into bed and hold Aurora, someone knocked on the door. He picked up his phone and finally saw all the missed calls from Grace. But the truth was, he hadn't blocked her. He really had just been resting. There was so much noise from the outside world, and frankly, he didn't want to deal with any of it. It was all too exhausting. Instead of wasting time, those doctors ought to be putting their heads together and figuring out when they're finally going to develop that medication.

They couldn't just let things drag on like this-it wasn't a solution. Lucas could already sense that Aurora's bodily functions were slowly deteriorating. She used to be perfectly healthy, and now she was reduced to this state because of some baseless illness. Honestly, even if it weren't happening to Aurora herself, even as an outsider, Lucas couldn't accept it. But aside from pressuring the doctors, he really had no other options. It was laughable. The knocking outside grew more urgent. 1/3 Chapter 652 Lucas didn't return Grace's calls. Instead, he went to the door and opened it directly.

The moment he saw Tessa, his expression turned cold. "You?" This woman clung like a leech-wherever he went, there she was. Back in Ravenshore, she'd already been acting strange. Now she'd even followed him here. It was getting harder for Lucas not to be suspicious. Tessa simply smiled and held up her phone. "I'm not the one looking for you. Mom is. "My dear brother-in-law, since you won't answer her calls, she had no choice but to ring me instead." Lucas froze slightly at that. He'd been planning to call Grace back in a bit.

He hadn't expected her to contact Tessa so quickly, or for Tessa to bring her phone straight to him. Why did all of this feel so planned? He narrowed his eyes and stared silently at Tessa, trying to figure out what she was really up to. But before he could speak, Grace's voice came through the phone in Tessa's hand.
