Chapter 66
No one knew how long it took, but it seemed as if a century had passed. The closed door was knocked
open from the outside, and Pete rushed into the room immediately. “Mr. Atlas
Dr. Leah followed Pete in.
“Check on how Lianne is doing first.” Zane’s voice was hoarse as if his throat had been burned.
Dr. Leah quickly took out two pills from the medicine box. “Here, take this medicine first”
Since Dr. Leah was Zane’s personal doctor, her medicine box was full of rare medication.
She also carried the antidote to this aphrodisiac with her, just to prevent Zane from falling into
someone’s trap.
Dr. Leah quickly walked toward Lianne. When she saw the scratches on Lianne’s body, her heart.
skipped a beat. “Lianne, why are you so cruel to yourself?”
“Dr. Leah, you’re finally here!” After saying that with a smile, Lianne fell into Dr. Leah’s arms and lost all
consciousness.
-They did not know that Lianne could only harm herself to regain a little sanity and prevent herself
from making a mistake she could not recover from.
Lianne had a long nightmare. In that nightmare, she was grilled over a fire while the surrounding people
pointed at her and sl*t-shamed her.
“I didn’t…….. I didn’t…” Lianne shouted, but no one paid attention to her.
In an instant, the fire under her feet turned into a cliff.
A few familiar faces threw stones at her. “B*tch, go to hell!” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Lianne dodged the stones, but she slipped and once again fell into the abyss.
“Lianne, wake up! You’re having a nightmare…” Amidst the many insults, a gentle female voice
seemed to be calling her name.
An unfamiliar and gentle voice pulled Lianne out of her nightmare. She was still in shock as she
called out in a daze, “Mom?”
Dr. Leah touched her head and said softly, “Silly girl… If you miss your mother, ask your boss for some
time off and go home to see her. Don’t suppress your feelings too much.”
“Dr. Leah, it’s you.” Lianne immediately calmed down and showed a classic smile. She did not
want to mention the nightmare or her mother.
Since Lianne did not want to talk about it, Dr. Leah did not ask further questions and took out an oral
glucose solution from the medicine box. “You haven’t eaten all day, so drink this first.”
Lianne only remembered that she was locked in a small room with Zane. After that, she did not
remember anything. “Have I slept for so long?”
Dr. Leah watched her drink the glucose, then reached out to rub her head. “You’ve been asleep for a
long time. How do you feel now?”
“I don’t have much energy now, probably because I haven’t eaten for so long. Everything else feels
fine.” Lianne thought of Zane. “Where is Mr. Atlas? Is he okay?”
“He’s fine.” Dr. Leah comforted her before thinking to herself, “It’ll be a wonder if he’s fine after taking
that nasty drug!”
However, Zane told her not to tell Lianne about his condition.
The mastermind who drugged them was ruthless. The dosage of the drug was ten times the usual
amount. Dr. Leah’s self-made antidote could not completely cancel out the effects of the drug unless
Zane ate the antidote and slept for a full day with the aid of a sedative, like Lianne
However, Zane would rather take an ice-water bath repeatedly than take a sedative. He said he was
busy with work and could not sleep for very long.
With countless subordinates working for him, Zane did not have to do everything himself. Even if he
slept for a full day, it would not delay anything. Thus, Dr. Leah did not know why Zane was so stubborn.
It was not until Zane asked about Lianne’s condition for the hundredth time that Dr. Leah figured out
why Zane wanted to stay awake. It seemed it was because of Lianne.
Zane was worried about Lianne, but he did not want to come to Lianne’s room to have a look.
