Chapter 10 

Hurried footsteps echoed down the hospital corridor

Adrian Graham had just seen Liana Langston off on a shuttle to the hospital 

when the nurse’s station calledZoe Young was acting up again

Ever since the miscarriage scare, she’d clung to him like a barnacle, breaking into sobs the moment he left her side

Once, he’d stepped into the bathroom for just five minutes and returned to find her with a bloodied forehead, blood covering half her face

The memory made him almost break into

run

In the room, Zoe Young was yanking at her IV line, blood beading from where the needle tore at her skin, staining the white bedsheet

Landon!she screamed hoarsely. Were you with her again?!” 

I’m right here.” Adrian grabbed her thrashing hands, wincing as her nails scraped over the stillhealing burns beneath the gauze

She clung to him like a drowning woman, tears mixing with foundation to leave dark, muddy streaks across his uniform. They’re sayingyou and Liana Langston are running away together” 

She knew this feeling too wellthe terror of abandonment. At twelve, she’d watched her mother jump from the top floor, clutching her father’s love letters to another woman

Don’t talk nonsense.” Adrian patted her back stiffly, his eyes, however, drifted out the window- 

A shuttle to the hospital was disappearing into the morning mist

Landon Graham had always treated her well -pulling her out of the hellhole that was the Young family, buying her the trendiest shirts. Even the hospital nurses envied the brand watch on her wrist

And since he’d returned from the front lines, he couldn’t keep his hands off her, as if trying to make up for lost time in every feverish night

She’d grown used to being spoiled. She couldn’t live without him now

So when the nurse said, Captain Graham escorted Dr. Langston to the station, she had smashed the medicine bowl in rage

Three hours

Plenty of time for those two to do God knows what in the inn

Until the door burst open, her pounding heart finally settled

The car broke down.” Adrian panted, soaked to the bone, his uniform dripping with sweat. I didn’t want you to worry, so I ran two kilometers” 

Zoe Young reached up to wipe his sweat with tenderness, though her nails unconsciously dug into his arm. But Liana is there all aloneand lately, there’s been those gangs-”

Her voice grew lower, curling like a frightened rabbit into his arms, even as she listened intently for his reaction

Adrian Graham visibly stiffened

Outside, a long, low car horn suddenly echoed through the mist like a final farewell

Zoe’s lips spoke of worry, but her eyes gleamed with something darker

If only something happened to that bitchif only she never came back

Adrian’s muscles clearly tensedthen slowly eased again. He gently patted her back to comfort her. She’s in her twenties. What could possibly happen?” 

He thought about the past three years-

how Liana Langston had taken care of the household on her own, looked after his 

parents, even carried heavy things up to the third floor by herself

She was just heading to the hospital dorms. Nothing would happen

Besides, he’d already called the Langston family to pick her up at the station
