Chapter 55

“I like you… I don’t deserve you… I’m not good enough for you.” Liam frowned at her words.

His concern deepened. “Is she dreaming about someone else?‘ He couldn’t help but wonder.

“Who do you like?” he asked gently.

Emma’s expression tightened. “Elijah.”

‘Elijah?‘ That name brought a surge of anger to Liam. The thought that she harbored feelings for that deceitful doctor was almost too much to bear.

But then, in a barely audible whisper, Emma clutched at his shirt. “Elijah… if you killed Liam, I won’t let you get away with it…”

With those words, Liam’s heart, which had been lost in a sea of turmoil, found its way back. He looked down at Emma with a gaze filled with deep, unwavering love. “You are mine,” he whispered.

In the stillness of the night, after ensuring Emma was resting comfortably, Liam retreated to his study to reflect on the day’s grim events at the cemetery.

Meanwhile, news from the hospital confirmed that Nora had sustained permanent injuries, her arm irreparably damaged.

“This afternoon’s events at the cemetery must remain confidential.” Liam’s voice carried a calm, authoritative tone as he addressed Levi in the dimly lit room.

Levi, his expression solemn, nodded in agreement. “Mr. Hall, rest assured, I’ve taken care of everything according to your instructions.”

The next morning, Emma woke up with a lingering hangover, her memory of the previous night’s confessions foggy.

Liam, maintaining his usual composure, suggested a day out. “Today, I’m taking you somewhere special.”
