"Wait here. The police will be here soon." Alicia looked at Lucas gently. The look in her eyes was so different from before.Lucas, who had been trapped in this situation, moved his shoulders a little and then improved his posture again. "I don't need to wait. This is your problem." Lucas moved to get out of there. Alicia held his hand. "Are you really okay? I'm really sorry about before."Lucas immediately put his hand away, with no change of expression at all. He still showed calmness because the problem here was not a problem. "Stop changing your attitude. We're not friends."This time Lucas really left her, he didn't have time for that. Even the sooner he left Alicia, the less he would have to get involved in the unpleasant matter later.Meanwhile, Alicia, standing where she was, continued to watch Lucas. Her heart was beating so high that she squeezed his right hand. "I think I like it." She smiled faintly. At that moment, Alicia found something new even though the chaos was
Lucas was surprised to see his friend among the other victims without more intensive help. He stepped closer to Ryan, who had lost consciousness.Several people were there to give him a little help. "Ryan."Lucas spoke again, and the people helping Ryan heard his voice. They looked at each other for a few seconds and then looked back at Lucas. "You know him?"Lucas nodded immediately. This man who was his first friend was, of course, very much remembered. He continued to look at Ryan. The man seemed quite messy, but there was no visible blood because of the severe injuries he had suffered. But that still didn't make Lucas feel relieved."It's good that someone recognized him." The man who helped Ryan exhaled from his mouth. "The paramedics are giving aid to the more seriously injured victims. Your friend was hit but doesn't look too bad."The surroundings were chaotic, with ambulance and police sirens blaring. People were still curious about what happened here. Many of them use their
Lucas could sense the great fear of his friend. He was so agitated that he could not think clearly.Lucas looked further and looked at both of them straight on. "Why your grandmother?"It may seem annoying, but missing a bit of information can lead to bad things and not being able to know what's really going on. This was tough for Ryan, but the man knew the consequences.Ryan tried to calm himself down, he looked back at his friend and his eyes at that moment were glazed over. "My grandmother is sick, Lucas. I need to find a lot of money to give her good treatment."She exhaled and inhaled once more, she felt really uncomfortable, but she had talked about her problem. "I need to raise money. Did you know that I've been living with my grandmother?" He saw Lucas nod. At this moment, Ryan looked so miserable. "I don't want her to leave this world without me being able to do anything, Lucas."Suddenly, Lucas saw that Ryan's eyes were wet with fresh tears. The man was showing his weakness
The Doctors immediately dealt with Ryan's grandmother, who was too busy to provide the best care, which confused Ryan about the situation that was happening now. He kept watching, and he finally spoke when the nurses were getting ready to take his grandmother."Where do you want to take my grandmother? I will pay for the treatment." He felt so anxious at this point for fear that his grandmother would be forced out because she was a little late in paying the hospital fees. "And soon, my grandmother will be applying for surgery."Ryan said what he was thinking as he was now a little relieved that someone would help him with the payment. He was aware of Lucas's presence beside him, confident his friend would help him. The doctor who was there looked at Ryan. He smiled. "Sir, Mrs. Brown will receive the best and most intensive care so the surgery will go smoothly."Ryan was confused because he had not even said this to the information center. He immediately looked at Lucas, who was besi
A spoonful of the hot soup went into his mouth. The two of them had skipped dinner, and they hadn't even felt hungry before. But after the food entered their mouths, they only felt hungry."Aaa, so delicious. My stomach is getting more comfortable." Ryan leaned his back against the chair while being able to feel something that made him relieved.Perhaps because the big problem weighing on his mind was over, he was able to think more clearly and could now focus a little on his condition. Ryan immediately glanced at Lucas. He just realized that his friend had always been with him since yesterday, and of course, he had also missed dinner. "Lucas, sorry for troubling you. And now you'd better eat well. I'm sure you're also in desperate need of food since you missed dinner." He leaned in again. Lucas nodded, and he stuffed food into his mouth. They both ate well, and it also evoked memories in Ryan's mind until he smiled. "Lucas, this reminds me of the cafeteria in college. Although the
"Are you home?" Louis looked at Lucas coming up the stairs. A man who looked the same as him had a good body and looked healthy was quite jealous. But he could handle his envy well and didn't take any wrong action. Lucas was still walking when he approached Louis, who was sitting in a wheelchair. "Yeah, sorry for not coming home yesterday." He took a good look at Louis. Although he looked neat and well cared for, Louis seemed pale. Lucas knew that his brother had a disease that was so deadly and rare that they were also struggling to find a cure, even though the percentage was tiny. Lucas felt sorry for his brother, who had survived all this time. "Yes, we can talk now." They were in Louis' room, looking very serious and flat, just like the man. They had a severe conversation there, and with Chirs's help, the tense dialogue between the two brothers became more manageable. Louis, with his pale face, spoke heavily. "You should know what I'm saying. The enemy our family has is a dif
"Louis isn't up yet, or is he having breakfast in his room?" Lucas, who had swallowed the meat, asked quietly. He watched Chris, who poured himself a drink of water.Chris looked at him, a friendly smile as he usually did. "Lord Louis will have breakfast in his room."Lucas was silent for a moment. He stopped the movement of his hand that would make the fork pierce the meat. "He's getting worse. Is there a time prediction?"Chris looked surprised by that, but then he shook his head slowly. Lucas knew that if he was hiding the truth from himself, he knew that Chris would always be on Louis' side. Once he was gone, all his loyalty oaths would be for him.Lucas finished his breakfast, grabbed his bag and the car keys he often used, and went to his campus to take care of something. The people on campus were very busy looking for jobs and getting recommendations from their lecturers. Some of them were going to further their education and some of them were going to work immediately. They a
Elena really didn't like the idea that what she left behind could get her something that could be the center of attention. In fact, she knew that Lora was one of the primadonnas on their campus. Even compared to her, Lora was top-tier.Lora is a gentle woman, she is not easily conquered by others even by wealthy men. Because Lora came from a second-rate business family in the Troson region. So, in addition to the men wanting Lora's beauty, they also wanted to benefit by being able to get good things for their families.Lora Sallou was the woman they really wanted.Elena squeezed her hand. "What she got should be for me." She felt so envious of what Lora had.In terms of beauty, she could compete with Lora, but she did not have as much family, wealth, and access to the society of the rich as Lora."That guy is the guy who once claimed to be your lover, right?" Zayn, who had been following her, pointed at Lucas.She quickly held Zayn's hand, not wanting Lucas to see that. "Yes, he used
