“Mmm…” Lenora closed her eyes, her hands instinctively reaching up to wrap around Zachary’s neck, responding to him with fervor.
The two were intertwined in a passionate exchange. Zachary slowly pulled away from her lips. A delicate thread of clear ambiguity stretched between them, finally snapping in the middle.
His face bore a look of restrained patience, and his brows furrowed deeply. His eyes were intently fixed on her expression, and he adjusted the rhythm of his hand movements.
Lenora’s eyes narrowed slightly, her gaze hazy. Her face was flushed, and her lips, both red and moist, parted slightly to let out a soft, coquettish moan.
Zachary quickly placed his other hand over Lenora’s lips, silencing her soft hum before it could escape.
Lenora’s elegant eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Her eyes were closed, her breathing becoming more and more frantic. A low, unbearable moan escaped from her throat.
Suddenly, she stiffened, her eyes tightly shut. Her face was as radiant as a blooming flower, her body limp and uncoordinated. Her arms, weak and powerless, slid from around Zachary’s neck, and she almost fell to the floor.
Zachary caught her just in time. Withdrawing his fingers, he casually wiped the liquid on her dress. His voice was hoarse when he asked, “Nora, are you feeling any better now?”
וד
Lenora leaned against his chest, her eyes closed, offering no response as if she had fallen asleep.
It seemed she was feeling a lot better.
Zachary gently supported Lenora’s waist, making her sleep a little more comfortably.
The helicopter touched down on the rooftop near Gerton Hospital. Zachary straightened out Lenora’s clothes and immediately carried her into the hospital.
When Lenora woke up, it was already early the next morning.
The sunlight spilled onto her pillow.
She naturally opened her eyes, and what greeted her sight was a pristine white ceiling.
The crisp chirping of birds echoed from outside the window, brimming with vitality.
Lenora surveyed the room’s furnishings and wondered what had happened. Could this be a hospital? Wasn’t I vacationing on Oceanic Road? Why am I at the hospital?
Lenora closed her eyes, striving to recall everything that had transpired the previous night.
With a creak, the door swung open, and the sound of footsteps entered the room.
Instinctively, Lenora opened her eyes only to find herself locking gazes with Zachary

Zachary quickly moved to the bedside. “You’re awake. How do you feel?”
“I feel fine…” Lenora found her throat feeling dry and uncomfortable.

Immediately, Zachary poured a glass of water, gently lifted Lenora’s head, and held it up to Lenora’s lips.
After taking a couple of sips, Lenora turned her face away and asked, “Why are you here?”
Why am I here? Do you remember what happened last night?”
Lenora closed his eyes, taking a few seconds to recall. All she could vaguely remember was that she seemed to have been drugged.
She was in a daze, unable to clearly remember many things.
A moment later, she said softly, “I can only remember some things.”
She then opened her eyes, gazing at Zachary with a detached expression. “You were still following me, weren’t you? Zachary, what will it take for you to let me go?”
As he met her icy gaze, Zachary suddenly stiffened.
As it turned out, he was the only one who cherished the tender moment they shared the previous night.
Since the effects of the medicine had worn off, she had become indifferent again.
His eyes held a somber depth as he asked in a low voice. “Do you have any idea what would have happened last night if I hadn’t been with you?”
Lenora gazed into Zachary’s eyes, her lips parting gently. “I know.”
Zachary paused. “Do you?”
Lenora averted her gaze, casually looking out the window. “I would’ve slept with Maxton, right? Isn’t that it? To be honest, I quite like him. What’s wrong with a one–night encounter? Isn’t this quite common among adults these days?”
Lenora turned her head, meeting Zachary’s gaze without flinching. “I really quite like him. He’s young. handsome, and full of life. He addresses me affectionately, makes me laugh, and brings color back into my otherwise dull life. He makes me feel young again.”
A surge of emotion welled up in Zachary’s chest when he heard her say that she would look for Maxton again.
In her desperation to stop him from following her, she even resorted to begging him.
Once Lenora’s words fell, there was a fleeting moment when he truly wondered if the child was a result of some reckless behavior during her time abroad. He even wondered if the number of miscarriages had caused Lenora to have a delicate uterus.
