Secret Admiration Finding True Love After Prison (Meryl) novel Chapter 342

Chapter 342 Burden 

Seeing Chandler return with a grim expression, Meryl couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong? Where did you disappear to?” 

“Nothing,” Chandler replied, sliding into the car and shutting the door behind him. “I’ll have a few bodyguards look out for you, just in case.” 

Meryl’s eyes widened in surprise. 

Bianca, sitting in the back seat, immediately chimed in, “Did something happen?” 

Just days had passed since Meryl’s kidnapping, and the thought sent a chill down her spine. 

She had only recently learned that the kidnappers had even used explosives. 

Chandler said as he buckled his seatbelt, “I might have ticked. someone off during a mission back at the academy. It’s better to be safe than sorry.” 

He didn’t elaborate on the details of the mission, but Meryl understood that it was likely classified information. 

She thought, “Wait a minute… they use codenames during missions to protect themselves and their families. 

Does that mean they know who he is?”

“Burden?” Chandler frowned. “What are you talking about?” 

It struck him then–how many times had Meryl been dragged into trouble because of him? The thought darkened his expression.

Clearly, the adversaries were aware of his vulnerabilities, which was why they kept targeting Meryl. 

They had crossed a line. 

As they drove, they passed a pharmacy. 

Bianca suddenly said, “Why don’t you drop me off here? I overindulged at dinner and could use a little walk. I’ll grab a cab 

home later.” 

Meryl raised an eyebrow. 

She thought, “Overindulged? With that tiny portion?” 

As soon as the car halted, Bianca opened the door, but as she stepped out, she stumbled slightly. 

Meryl caught the movement in the rearview mirror and immediately focused on Bianca’s feet. 

“Did you twist your ankle?” 

Earlier, when the ice fell, Bianca had been so focused on pushing Meryl out of harm’s way that she hadn’t considered her own safety.

Bianca replied, a bit sheepish, “It’s nothing serious. I’ll just rest for a couple of days, and I’ll be fine.” 

Meryl shook her head and settled back into the car. 

As the door closed, Bianca felt a wave of disappointment wash over her. 

Just as she turned to leave, the car window rolled down. 

Meryl leaned out, resting her chin on her hands. “Why are you still standing there? Get in!” 

Bianca blinked in surprise, turning back to meet Meryl’s gaze. Her voice trembled slightly, “Meryl…” 

Meryl tilted her head and turned to Chandler. “Mr. Aniston, could you please take my mom to the hospital? I think she needs. to get checked out.” 

Chandler nodded without hesitation.
