Chapter 92 The Outside World

Lewis remained silent.

The argument exhausted Sierra, but because her drink had been spiked, she couldn’t help wriggling around and moaning.

Any man would have given in to their sexual urges upon seeing her in that state. However, Lewis didn’t waver, his expression still stoic as he drove to the hospital. Once there, he opened the door and carried Sierra out.

“I’m unhappy too…” She wrapped her arms around his neck, deliberately brushing her lips against his while snuggling closer to his chest. “Don’t you love me-no, it doesn’t matter; I don’t need you to take responsibility for me. All I want is you. I don’t want anything else, just you.”

Lewis frowned, abruptly turned to put her into his car, then took off his necktie to bind her wrists.

Sierra was stunned momentarily, not realizing Lewis had picked her up again and brought her into the hospital. When she finally snapped to reality, she kicked her legs around but to no avail. Left without a choice, she lowered her head to bite Lewis’ arm hard.

Lewis’ face grew stormy as he held back his rage, snarling, “Sierra, I’ll dump you on the ground here and now if you keep up with this tantrum.”

Blinking, Sierra fell into another daze. Although she didn’t let go of him, her jaw had loosened significantly.

The next day, Josephine awoke, her dull eyes greeting the white ceiling. It took her some time to clear up her brain fog, which still heavily impeded her consciousness. She couldn’t differentiate between dream and reality. Eventually, what happened the day before seeped into her mind, causing her to tense up.

“Mrs. Alvarez, you’re awake!” the doctor exclaimed with relief, causing Josephine to look toward him. He whipped out a thermometer, handing it to her. “Let’s take your temperature and see if your fever has gone.”
