A Perfect Lie Hides Behind My Billionaire Marriage (reese and hudson)

Luther finally let out a long-awaited sigh of relief, his voice carrying a mix of gratitude and exhaustion: "Thank you, doctor."

Mariel's gaze shifted toward him, a hint of determination in her eyes: "While you navigate the hospitalization procedures, I'll stay here with her."

Luther gave a subtle nod.

Reese's time in a comatose state turned out to be relatively brief; she emerged from her unconsciousness shortly after being brought out of the emergency room. Her eyes blinked open, only to find Mariel perched beside her hospital bed, engrossed in her mobile phone.

The discomfort from the wounds on her body prompted a soft, involuntary hiss from Reese's lips: "Miss Chase."

Mariel swiftly abandoned her phone, concern evident in her expression as she looked at Reese: "Are you awake? How are you feeling? Any pain or discomfort?"

Reese noticed her nervous tone, she shook her head slightly: "It's bearable. Why are you here?"

Rolling her eyes playfully, Mariel retorted: "Well, when I was driving, I happened upon quite the dramatic car accident scene. You were being cradled by some guy, and I swear I almost had a heart attack. Both he and I rushed you to the hospital immediately. Thankfully, you're okay. Otherwise, I'd be carrying a massive load of guilt right now."

Reese's smile persisted, though she remained silent, feeling a trace of weariness settle in.
