Billionaire’s Runaway Bride

Chapter 88



“I suddenly opened my eyes. If Penn really intends to investigate, the origins of those two children can’t be hidden! In this situation, I will never allow Aviva and Cyrus to leave me! I opened my mouth to say something, but I only felt a sharp pain in my head, making it impossible for me to speak.”

“I know, I was careless and my emotions fluctuated too much. My illness was not completely cured, and once my emotions fluctuated too much, it would cause severe headaches. But I couldn’t say it. A big hand firmly gripped my shoulder, making me feel relieved inexplicably. Instinctively, I grabbed the hand on my shoulder and vented all the pain brought by the pain, holding it tight. ‘I’ve called the doctor, hold on a bit longer, don’t sleep, you must not fall asleep again!’

I held onto his hand in pain and instinctively nestled into his arms, feeling like I was about to be torn apart. ‘If you don’t want me to investigate, then I won’t! Just as long as you’re okay!’

Nestled in the man’s arms, smelling the scent on his body, I felt that the symptoms of my headache seemed to ease a bit, but I still couldn’t speak because of the pain.”

“Vaguely, I heard the door of the ward suddenly being pushed open. A disordered footsteps approached me from far to near. Immediately, Penn loosened his grip on my arm, as if he was going to leave me. Sensing the person next to me was going to leave, I instinctively reached out and grabbed his arm. ‘Aimee, let the doctor examine you, you’ll feel better soon.’ Penn’s voice was unusually gentle, ‘I’m right next to you, I won’t go far, the doctor can’t examine you like this.’ Only then did I slowly let go of his hand, but my gaze followed him all the way.”

Penn’s POV:

I stood in the corner of the ward and instructed several experts, “Please start the examination.” “This is due to excessive emotional fluctuations, and the patient is consciously controlling her emotions.”

After a while, the examination ended and the experts looked at me with a serious expression. “But the physiological reaction of a headache won’t improve quickly.

My suggestion is to give her a painkiller injection.” Hearing this, my eyes darkened. Emotional fluctuations. Was it because I said I wanted to find the biological father of those two children? So, just now, she didn’t actually fall asleep. Does that man mean that much to her? “Mr. Carter?” The expert’s words snapped me out of my thoughts.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

I came back to my senses and nodded slightly, “Go ahead.”

After getting my permission, the experts started to arrange the injection. After the injection, Aimee’s headache symptoms improved noticeably. The experts gave me a few reminders and then carefully retreated.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t expect you to react so strongly to that matter.” I said softly. She slowly opened her eyes, “Since Mr. Carter already knows, there’s no need to talk about it anymore.” I obediently changed the topic, “It’s my fault for not thinking it through.” She frowned uncomfortably, “I’m tired and want to rest. Mr. Carter, you can leave now.” After speaking, she closed her eyes.

I looked at her face with a heavy gaze. The injection contained a sedative, and Aimee quickly fell asleep. I sat by her bed and guarded her.

I was just starting to feel drowsy when the commotion at the door woke me up. I got up and opened the ward door, “What’s going on?”

I saw Bill and Dave pulling at each other at the door. Seeing the newcomer, my displeasure turned into disgust, “Mr. Black, what brings you here so late?”

I walked out of the ward directly, closed the door in front of Dave’s face, and used my body to block the door. Dave looked at me with a piercing gaze, “Where is Miss Miller? How is she now?” I replied coldly, “She’s much better now, you don’t need to worry.”

“I want to go in and see her!” he insisted. As he took a step forward, Bill had already blocked him before I could even move.

“If Miss Miller knew that I came to see her and was blocked by Mr. Carter, I wonder how she would feel,” Dave said. But I wasn’t moved at all.

“She won’t know,” I replied. Dave’s expression changed slightly. “Even if she knew, it wouldn’t matter,” he said. “I just want to go in and check on her. Besides, I have something I want to ask her.” “There are only three people involved in this experiment at the research institute,” I said directly.

“Another person has worked with Miss Miller for many years, and I don’t think he would do something stupid like this. That leaves only you!” My eyes were filled with coldness. He looked shocked. “Mr. Carter may have forgotten that this is a project led by our family. Why would I do something like this?”

He furrowed his brows and looked puzzled.

“What are you talking about?” he asked. “I’ve had someone investigate the experiment, and there are only three people involved at the research institute,”

I said, my eyes filled with coldness.

“Another person has worked with Miss Miller for many years, and I don’t think he would do something stupid like this. That leaves only you!” He looked shocked. “Mr. Carter may have forgotten that this is a project led by our family. Why would I do something like this?”

I furrowed my brows. I had thought about this question too. Dave had no reason to do this. But there were only three people involved in the experiment, and the only possible culprit was Dave!

“Even if Mr. Carter suspects me, he should provide evidence that it was me who did it. Otherwise, if he concludes that I am the culprit based solely on speculations, it will only make people laugh!” said Dave coldly. “I will provide evidence,”

I firmly looked at him. He was not to be outdone, “Before that, please allow me to visit my partner, Miss Miller. I have the right to do so!”

I was unmoved.

“Similarly, don’t expect to see her before you can prove your innocence.” Just as we were at a stalemate, the elevator door slowly opened. Clayton and three little guys came out of the elevator. Dave saw the situation and left without further argument.
