F1 Champion's Perfect Crash: When Love Takes The Final Turn novel Chapter 119

Third POV

Aurelia was experiencing symptoms of fever, panting heavily, and her consciousness was hazy.

It didn't seem like a regular fever; rather...

It suddenly occurred to Lukas that Aurelia was inexperienced in such matters and, being only 20 years old, she probably didn't even understand what was happening to her. That's why she kept saying she felt unwell.

But with so many people at the banquet, who would dare to openly harm Aurelia? Besides, she wasn't a fool; would she simply drink anything given to her?

Various thoughts flashed through Lukas's mind, but before he could act, Aurelia was already clinging to him.

Lukas knew that if Aurelia found out tomorrow that she had made a fool of herself in public, she would definitely be devastated and punish herself.

Seizing the opportunity while others weren't paying attention, he put his arms around her, and with a swift move, knocked her unconscious.

Then, he quickly lifted Aurelia in his arms and headed outside.

Ella Rhodes had been discreetly keeping an eye on Aurelia's condition. She never imagined that Aurelia had been with Lukas all this time.

But as long as the man she was with wasn't Anthony, Ella didn't really care.

She didn't mind, but Lukas's actions caught Anthony's attention.

He almost ran over and stopped Lukas. "Mr. Strakovski, what are you doing? What happened to Aurelia?"

Hearing Anthony address her so intimately, Lukas felt uncomfortable.

He looked at Anthony and calmly said, "She has low blood sugar and fainted. I'm taking her to the hospital. Why is Director Rivers also coming along?"

Anthony was taken aback. Today was his mother's birthday banquet, and if he left midway, it would surely cause gossip.

But before he could say anything, Ava approached them. "Director Rivers, I'll stay with Aurelia. You can go back."

Anthony sighed in relief. "All right then, please take care of her in the hospital. Let me know when she wakes up."

Ava nodded.

Lukas carried Aurelia out and placed her in the passenger seat.

As he was about to get into the driver's seat, Ava stopped him.

With a cold expression, Ava asked, "Mr. Strakovski, what happened to Aurelia?"

Lukas didn't want others to know that Aurelia had consumed something she shouldn't have.

Knowing that Ava was probably aware of their relationship, he decided to be straightforward. "Why are you afraid that I'll hurt her? If I really wanted to do something to her, do you think she would be unharmed until now?"

Ava was taken aback and instinctively stepped back.
