Chapter 255: Justin’s Speculations

Aiden remained calm, like an unshakable mountain. He pulled out another set of medicines, and she did the same again—knocking them out of his hand. He repeated the action, and once more, she repeated it. This went on for four to five rounds. Aiden didn’t give up, but eventually, she did, clenching her fists in frustration.

Aiden’s calmness and unaffected behavior always angered her more.

He looked at her angry face and said, "If you get angry, your immunity will lower, and it will only prolong your stay here. Take a deep breath and calm down."

Vincent, who was watching all this through the glass wall, was stunned at the unbelievable patience Aiden showed and thought, Not just my sweetheart—even her mother is the same. It reminds me of the time with Natalie after I saved her from the traffickers. These mother-daughter duos are truly a handful.

Caryn closed her eyes, finding Aiden’s calmness unbearable.

Every day, Aiden had to come up with something new to make her take her medicine. "If you’re that bored, why don’t you watch some interesting news from this city instead of waiting for me to show up, just so you can vent your anger and stave off boredom?"

Caryn’s brows furrowed further in annoyance, clearly uninterested.

"Hmm, where shall I start?" Not waiting for her reply, he continued, "The latest interesting event would be better. Yesterday, a perfumer was accused of plagiarism during a launch event. In front of the entire world, that brave perfumer proved herself innocent, and I must say, she was truly impressive." He paused, as if trying to remember something. "What was her name again? Right—Natalie Ford."

The moment he said the name, Caryn opened her eyes.

"If you take this medicine, I will arrange for you to watch it directly. You’ll find it more interesting than a movie," he said, offering her the medicine as if he were certain she would agree now.

She took the tiny cup of tablets from his hand and had her medicine.
