The Heartbreak prescription novel

Chapter 298 Chapter 298 Dwight was truly unlike any man Halsey had ever interacted with. Stanley, her father, Gilbert... None of them could cook, because they had plenty of servants to do it for them. But Dwight? He could cook, and by the smell wafting through the house, he seemed quite skilled at it. Soon, the delicious aroma of braised ribs filled the room. Halsey smiled to herself-just like Madeline, she loved braised ribs. It was one of her favorite dishes.

Before long, Dwight brought the braised ribs to the table. They looked as good as they smelled, and on the side, he had prepared a plate of light stir-fried greens. Halsey wasn't even hungry at first, but now, the sight of the food made her stomach growl. Just as she was about to take a seat, a cold, harsh voice cut through the moment. "Why are you still here?" Halsey froze. She looked up in surprise, her innocent, almond-shaped eyes locking with Dwight's.

He had quietly appeared next to her, his gaze sharp and indifferent. Halsey felt a bit embarrassed. She quickly stammered, "Mrs. Garner, Madeline, my dad just called. I need to get going." Tina and Madeline exchanged glances and didn't try to stop her. "Alright, dear. Come visit us again sometime." 'Halsey stood up and waved sweetly. "Okay, goodbye." As she left, Halsey retraced her steps through the muddy alley.

The path was so slippery, and she had to carefully step over the puddles to avoid getting her dress dirty. Suddenly, a burly man appeared in front of her, clearly intoxicated, his heavy scent of alcohol filling the air. The man's eyes lit up when he saw her. "Hey, little lady. Where did you come from? Come on. Let's have a drink together." Halsey's heart skipped a beat.

After the terrifying encounter with the Stormborn Devil the night before, 'she couldn't believe she was now being chased by a drunk. Instinctively, she turned and ran. "Don't run!" the man shouted, chasing after her. "You're asking for it, huh? Let's see how I handle you!" Halsey screamed in panic, "Help! Help-ah!" Out of nowhere, she collided with someone's chest. Looking up, she saw Dwight's sharp, buzzed head looming above her. He had arrived just in time.

It was like she had found her lifeline. "Dwight, help me!" she gasped. The drunk man had caught up by now, but when he saw Dwight, he froze for a moment. "Oh, hey, Dwight." The man and Dwight were neighbors and seemed to know each other. 0 Dwight's face remained unreadable as he raised his hand and placed it around Halsey's shoulders, pulling her into his arms. Halsey tensed at the sudden closeness.

Though she had been engaged to Gilbert, she had never even held his hand, let alone had moments like this. Now, Dwight's arm was firmly around her, and she could feel his strength through the thin fabric of her dress. Her heart Chapter 298 raced in an instant. The drunk man chuckled and looked at Dwight. "Is this your girlfriend?" Girlfriend? Halsey's eyes widened in shock as she turned her gaze toward Dwight. Without meeting her eyes, Dwight muttered coldly, "Yeah.

He actually called her his girlfriend? Halsey was stunned-she stared up at him, but Dwight wasn't looking at her. His attention remained on the drunk man, and all she could see was the cold, sharp lines of his profile. The drunk man laughed loudly. "Ah, I see. Sorry, Dwight. I had no idea. Well, it's good to know you found someone. About time you have a girlfriend, now that you're in college." Dwight gave him a chilling look but didn't respond.

"Well, see you around." The man, sensing the tension, quickly turned to leave. As he walked away, he spat and muttered under his breath, "A drug dealer's bastard, acting all high and mighty. Bah!"
