Chapter 335 Sorry to Bother


Stellan closed her eyes and kissed Alaric. Even though she stayed by his side every day, she felt an overwhelming joy as if they were reunited after a long separation. Alaric, still weak, let her kiss him for a long time before she finally let go.

Stellan asked, "Why did you take those strong painkillers? Do you know that taking too many in your condition could be fatal?"

Alaric smiled faintly and said, "Knowing you were in danger, I couldn't think rationally. Now both of us are fine. Isn't this a happy ending?"

This outcome was indeed fortunate.

"Alright, you just woke up. Don't talk too much." Stellan lay in Alaric's arms. "I'll stay here with you."

Alaric raised his hand to hold Stellan close and then closed his eyes. He needed more rest, and having Stellan in his arms made him feel much more at ease.

They held each other tightly for a while until Mia knocked on the door from outside. "Mr. Knight, Stellan, there's an officer named Neil Jackson here to see you about the case." Alaric had just woken up, and Neil was already here. What timing.

"The police?" Alaric was surprised to hear that the police had come to them, not knowing what had happened.

"Yes, the officer in charge of the kidnapping case." As soon as Stellan finished speaking, Neil appeared at the bedroom door with a man in his forties, dressed in a suit.
