Chapter 289:

The four of them sat in silence for what felt like an eternity. Around noon, Tristan received a call informing him that he was needed for an urgent operation. Before leaving in a hurry, he told Emily to contact him immediately if Stella woke up.

RK remained in place, showing no intention of moving. Meanwhile, the company was likely in chaos, with employees waiting for their president’s return. Aden, worried that RK might starve, went downstairs to buy lunch. Remembering Emily, he grabbed an extra meal for her as well.

When Aden returned, he placed the food in front of RK, who ignored it. He then set Emily’s lunch in front of her, but she, too, didn’t touch it.

“Hey, what’s wrong with the two of you? If you don’t eat, you’re going to faint. If that happens, how will you be there when Stella wakes up? She’s not waking up right away—she needs rest. When she does wake up, she’s going to scold you for not taking care of yourselves,” Aden said, trying to lighten the mood.

Still, neither of them responded. The heavy silence persisted.

“Come on, will this help wake her up? Both of you are being childish. Stella wouldn’t want to see you like this. You’re making it harder for everyone,” Aden added, his frustration evident.
