Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother

Chapter 173: Get Lost!

’Before she used to reply me in a moment.’

Leaning back in his chair, he let out a slow exhale. It’s my fault. But back then, I had no other choice. His gaze drifted as memories resurfaced. Maybe I saw myself in her and I just wanted to be her strength, to keep her from giving up. And she did—better than I ever expected.

The moment was cut short by the sharp, urgent beep of a device on his desk. His expression turned cold, and he stood abruptly, rushing out of the study.

Eric and two other servants, alerted by the same device, followed closely behind him as they hurried down the stairs toward a specific room. Inside, a woman lay on the bed, her chest heaving as she struggled to breathe.

"Aiden! The injection," Eric called, already dialing the doctor.

Aiden was ahead of him, retrieving a small box from the bedside table. The two servants moved quickly, holding the woman steady as her body convulsed.

With practiced efficiency, Aiden inserted the needle and administered the injection. Slowly, the woman’s breathing eased, her body relaxing as the immediate danger passed.

One of the servants placed an oxygen mask over her face and let out a relieved breath. "Her pulse is stabilizing."

"The doctor is on his way," Eric reported, closing his phone.

Aiden gave a curt nod, his gaze never leaving the woman’s pale face. "One of you stays with her at all times," he ordered, his voice low but firm.

"Yes, Mr. Shaw," one of the servants responded immediately.

Aiden stood silently by the bedside, watching the rhythmic rise and fall of the woman’s chest beneath the oxygen mask. His features remained calm, but there was a flicker of something deeper in his eyes—something that lingered just beneath the surface.
