After speaking for a while, I was winded, my worn out condition deeply concerned Laura as she placed her hand on my forehead, checking my temperature.

“Oh, my gosh!

Bright, you are burning with fever. Let me take you to the hospital. Your hunger strike has left adverse effects on your health.”

But I refused, regulating my breathing. I wished to discuss everything in my mind before anything else.

“It’s just a fever, Laura. Don’t bother!

Let me end this suspense for once. I won’t be able to rest without clear communication.”

From my early years of business, I had one principle to adhere to: Solve everything through dialogue!

No matter how difficult or unpleasant the situation was, I never left anything resolved, avoiding miscommunication. Only my heart knew how I had suffered in the loneliness of my room in the past weeks. The lack of connection was suffocating me.

Thankfully, Laura understood my point and nodded.

“Ok, fine. As you wish.

Then how did your protest end in that engagement, Bright? Did your mom threaten you?”

Laura’s words pushed a serious matter into my consideration, I was unaware of why she was calling Sienna my fiancé.

“I am not engaged to the Lockwood’s heiress, Laura. It’s just that I fell ill because of my hunger strike, so my dad forced me to surrender. He took me to meet Sienna to a gathering at our farm house.

I just walked with her to that party and left after ten minutes.”
