Chapter 255

Eric took a deep breath. “It’s okay. You passed out, and I was bringing you home when we got targeted. That was my oversight.”

I felt like Eric had more to say, but he held back.

What did I do? When I woke up, there were traces of blood under my nails.

“We should head to the hospital for a full check–up; you’re pregnant,” Robin and Stella were

concerned about me.

“I want to see Colin…” I whispered.

“The hospital first,” Stella shook her head. “Search and rescue are on Colin’s case. You showing up will just cause chaos, especially with the baby.”

Tears welled in my eyes as I reluctantly got into the car.

“He’ll be alright because you’re waiting for him.” Just before I got in, Eric said something out of the blue, assuring me Colin would be fine.

Tears pooled in my eyes, and my chest ached fiercely.
