CHAPTER 926
"Henry..." Clara panted heavily, looking up at him through tears of pain, her eyes filled with deep understanding. "Go... do your duty. Protect the city...""I can't leave you, Clara!" Henry pleaded, tears streaming down his face as he held her hand. "Not right now!""Go..." Clara squeezed his hand with incredible force as another contraction hit. "Just promise me... you'll come right back to carry your child."Henry swallowed hard, his throat tight, his heart tearing into a million pieces. He leaned down, kissed her forehead with fierce, desperate devotion, and looked into her eyes. "I promise you, Clara. I will be back before you even finish pushing. I love you.""I love you too," Clara sobbed as the nurses pushed her through the double doors into the delivery room.Henry watched the doors swing shut. He wiped his tears, pulled his General's cap tight over his head, his eyes turning cold as ice. He turned on his heel and strode out of the hospital toward his armored vehicle.Inside
CHAPTER 925
The hospital discharged Clara later that evening with a clean bill of health. From that exact moment, Henry’s protective instincts almost turned into obsession.The second they arrived back at the estate, Henry carried her over the threshold in his arms. He refused to let her walk. He carried her up the grand staircase, laid her gently on the bed, and immediately set to work."Henry, seriously, stop!" Clara laughed, swatting his hands away as he tried to unlace her shoes for her. "I'm pregnant, not disabled, you know! I can take off my own boots!""Nope. Absolutely not," Henry declared sternly, removing her shoes with delicate care and wrapping a plush blanket around her legs. "You are carrying my daughter. You will not lift a finger, you will not strain a single muscle, and you will not walk anywhere if I can carry you.""You are ridiculous," Clara giggled, her heart melting as she watched fearsome Regional Police General fuss over her like a worried mother hen.True to his word, Hen
CHAPTER 924
"I... I don't know..." Clara wheezed, clutching her stomach as cold sweat beaded on her forehead. "I feel... so lightheaded..."Without wasting a single second, the driver helped her up, called for the golden escort convoy, and rushed her straight to the private wing of the city's top medical center.Within twenty minutes, Henry's armored SUV screeched to a violent halt outside the emergency entrance. Henry didn't even wait for his guards to open the door. He threw it open himself and sprinted through the sliding glass doors like a madman, his General's cap nearly falling off his head, his face pale with sheer terror."WHERE IS MY WIFE?!" Henry roared at the central nurses' station, his voice echoing across the pristine white marble lobby. "WHERE IS CLARA LANCASTER?!""S-Sir! General!" a head nurse stammered, pointing frantically down the VIP corridor. "Ward 402! She’s in Ward 402!"Henry didn't listen to the rest. He kicked open the double doors of the corridor and stormed into Ward
CHAPTER 923
The heavy leather seats of the luxury stretch limousine felt almost unreal under Clara’s fingertips as the escort convoy glided effortlessly through the grand wrought-iron gates of their new estate.When the car finally came to a smooth halt in front of the main entrance, Clara stepped out and stood there, her mouth slightly open in awe.The house was not just a residence; it was a sprawling, breathtaking architectural masterpiece nestled high on a lush hillside overlooking the entire glowing skyline.Sunlight reflected on floor-to-ceiling glass walls, cascading infinity pools, and pristine white marble pillars. Beautiful gardens stretched out as far as the eye could see, making it look like an enchanted castle dropped right into the modern world."Henry..." Clara whispered, leaning her head against her husband's shoulder as the cool breeze rustled her hair. "Is this... really our home?"Henry wrapped a strong arm around her waist, pulling her close, his own gaze sweeping across the
CHAPTER 923
The couple scrambled in chaos, grabbing their pre-packed luggage, rushing out the front door, and speeding off toward the international airport in a sedan.Thanks to Henry's new high-ranking status as a Regional Police General, they bypassed the massive TSA lines entirely, escorted straight through a private VIP terminal. They boarded their luxurious, private first-class cabin just minutes before the jet lifted off the tarmac.For the entire flight, Clara couldn't stop talking. She leaned over her wide leather seat, her eyes sparkling like a little kid in a candy store as she gestured wildly with her hands."—and then, Henry, I am not even kidding you, I looked up at the sky and saw a REAL, massive dragon flying through the clouds!" Clara giggled excitedly. "It was giant! Its scales were glowing like rubies!"Henry chuckled softly, leaning over to kiss her forehead, utterly captivated by her radiant energy. "Alright, alright, I believe you! You definitely have to take me there with yo
CHAPTER 921
Adrian watched as Clara raised her glass in a toast with Sophia."She will always look up to you as her big brother," Elder Ronin continued quietly. "Life happens. Paths diverge, and responsibilities as the Dragon Heir may take you miles or dimensions apart. But no matter where she goes, she will never, ever forget what you have done for her."Adrian felt a profound, emotional weight lift off his chest. The bitter regret that had been silently gnawing at his soul dissolved into a deep sense of peace. He looked at the old man and offered a sincere, grateful nod."Thank you, Elder," Adrian said softly. "I needed to hear that."The next morning arrived all too quickly. The crisp, cool mountain air blew softly across the courtyard as Clara stood near the grand archway, packed and fully prepared to leave.She looked around at the breathtaking scenery one last time. Honestly, she had enjoyed last night so much that a small part of her had genuinely considered asking if she could stay for an
