Seeing Sutton standing here waiting for him hadn’t surprised him. If it had been his sister Rose, he would be demanding answers as well. He had expected this conversation. He exhaled slowly, bracing himself.
“What is it?” he asked, keeping his voice even.
Sutton studied him for a moment before speaking. “I need to know something, and I need you to be honest with me, Roman. Is there any reason, any at all, that Blair would be in danger because of you?”

Roman’s jaw tightened. “No. Well… I’m not one hundred percent sure, but it wouldn’t be business. Everything I do within business is legitimate. I have my men on it. They will not leave one stone unturned, and neither will I, Sutton. You have my word.”
Sutton didn’t back down. “Are you sure you didn’t make an enemy in business? Someone with a grudge? Someone that lost out in a deal? Something from your past? Because I swear to God, if you have knowingly put her in danger—”
Roman cut her off, his voice firm but calm. “I would never put Blair in harm’s way. And if I had any suspicion that this was because of me, I would have told you. Sutton. All I care about is that someone is targeting her. I don’t know who yet, but I will find out.”
Sutton watched him carefully, as if trying to detect a lie. When she found none, she exhaled sharply, rubbing her temples. “I had to ask. You know that.”
“I get it,” Roman said, his voice softer now. “You’re protecting her. I respect that. But I need you to understand something… I am, too.”
Sutton nodded slowly. “Then you better figure this out. Fast.”
Roman’s expression darkened. “I will.”
Satisfied, Sutton turned, leading the way back toward Blair’s room. When they entered, Keira was sitting beside the bed, scrolling through her phone. Blair was asleep, her breathing even, her body relaxed for the first time in hours.
Keira glanced up at them. “We good? Or did you two have a dramatic hallway standoff?”
Telling Roman, Keira had been very aware of what had been going on in the hallway.
Sutton shot her a look before sighing. “We’re good. For now.”
Keira smirked. “Good. Because I need sleep, and I doubt the nurses will appreciate me snoring in this chair, waking up their whole ward.”
Sutton leaned down, pressing a gentle kiss to Blair’s forehead. “We’ll be back tomorrow,” she whispered.
