The air was thick with anticipation as Shaun eagerly observed Lucy's grandfather after administering his supposed antidote. Confident in the effectiveness of his concoction, Shaun's eyes sparkled with hope. However, within moments, the atmosphere shifted drastically as the old man's condition took a horrifying turn.Foam formed at his mouth, and he convulsed violently, blood emerging from his ears and nose. Panic gripped Shaun and Lucy as they witnessed the unexpected and alarming reaction. The room filled with desperate cries, and the weight of uncertainty pressed upon them.Despite the chaos, Shaun attempted to mask his concern. Sweating with anxiety, he insisted to Lucy that such extreme symptoms might be a natural reaction to the antidote. He urged her to wait and observe, assuring her that the situation would improve. Lucy, torn between hope and fear, hesitated but clung to the possibility that Shaun's concoction might still prove effective.Amidst the turmoil, Michael swiftly to
A little hope flickered like a distant flame as Lucy's grandfather showed signs of improvement after Michael's medicine. The old man's weakened state seemed to be gradually turning around, offering a glimmer of hope to the worried faces surrounding him. However, amidst the tentative relief, an undercurrent of tension lingered.Shaun, unwilling to admit his mistake, insisted to Lucy that even without Michael's intervention, the old man would have recovered in seconds. He painted Michael as an opportunist, claiming credit for a success that was supposedly inevitable. Lucy, torn between the conflicting claims, observed her grandfather with cautious optimism.Amused by Shaun's attempts to deflect blame, Michael couldn't let the charade continue. With a knowing smile, he challenged Shaun, questioning if he truly believed in the efficacy of his own "antidote." Michael proposed a dare, asking Shaun to demonstrate his confidence by taking the concoction himself. Shaun hesitated, stuttering an
“Hi, Michael, about the other day, I am really sorry, I didn't mean…” “Hello Michael, so I didn't mean to speak the way I did I was just worried about my grandfather and….. No that is too cheerful” “Michael can I have a word, I shouldn’t have spoken to you the way I did and now I feel really bad and…Nop, Lucy… too serious” “Michael, I just want to say thank you and I am sorry for the way …Argh!…” Lucy grunted pacing around her room, with her phone in her hands, contemplating in how to apologize about what she did to Michael. She pulled a chair and sit “God, pull your shit together, Lucy, he is your ex husband so what? He saved your grandfather and you want to do is express the way you feel, apologize for doubting him and.. And., and” she whined, cozied up in her couch, staring at his number without having the courage to call him.

Chapter 83 “Let go of me!” “Let me go you monster!” “Let me go!” Lucy screeched as she tried to break free from Hunter. Hunter turned to Liam and Liam gestured for him to let her go. Lucy rushed toward Louisa, her hands trembling seeing her covered in blood, she turned her over, pulling her closer to her chest “Please open your eyes, please” she begged but Louisa was gone. There was nothing left. Lucy hugged her cold body in tears as she remembered the few moments they shared together, Louisa did everything within her power to help Lucy realize the kind of man Liam was and also protected her and guided her through her struggles. It’s hurt Lucy because she didn’t remember her mother but Louisa filled the void in some ways and Iess felt loved by her. She raised her head glaring at Liam “You’re a monster!” “You are a beast!” “How could you kill her?” “How could you do this!” She screeched.

Michael pulled out two guns and rushed downstairs. “Alpha, we are surrounded the garage is also attacked, what do we do?” Hunter blurted, panicking with Lucyin his hands. Bullets continued to rain and the sounds of men breaking every glass, trying to break into his house. There was only one place left, “Get Lucyto my office, keep her in the storage till I get there, and guard her with your life, I do not want to see even a scratch on her!” he sneered.
