Alexa was a little surprised, because it was the same disease that her brother had lost, but she tried to stay calm as she said, “It seems like you really love your brother. I can see how anxious you get whenever you think of him.”

“My parents passed away a year ago.” Shane smiled bitterly. “So, I only have him as my family. I love him very much. When I asked for a little brother, God in his kindness brought him into our family life. A three-year-old boy I found in the forest.”

“What? So you found him when he was 3 years old? That means he's not your biological brother?” asked Alexa, looking probing.

“That's right. He is not my biological brother. But my parents and I love him very much. So what?” Shane looked confused.

“What's your brother's name?” asked Alexa, who was increasingly curious about Shane's younger brother.

Before Alexa's question could be answered, a nurse approached. “I finally found you here, Mr. Morgan. I've been looking for you. Dr. Gerard has been waiting for you.

    The atmosphere in the room changed instantly. Shane raised his eyebrows, while Alexa held her breath. "What's going on, Jordan?" asked Shane, his voice remaining calm even though his heart was ready for anything.Jordan hung up the phone and looked at Shane with a look that was hard to interpret. "The car didn't take another road to avoid you. They were just outwitting you. Now they're near this building, as if waiting for an opportunity."A chill ran down Alexa's spine. Shane fixed Jordan with a piercing stare, like a hawk locking its gaze on prey. "Increase security throughout the building. Make sure no one can enter without authorization."Jordan nodded and immediately gave the order to the security team. Meanwhile, Julian remained standing where he was, staring coldly at Shane. Inside the room, the tension was palpable, as if time had stopped and only uncertainty ruled them.Shane knew that whatever happened next, this was no coincidence. This was a warning, a real threat, and he

    Alexa felt the anxiety rolling in her chest like waves relentlessly crashing on the shore. She felt fear. She remembered the incident with her fiancé, Chris Raleigh, who died in an accident. The car they were traveling in was chased by several black sedans.Shane looked at Alexa with a gentle yet firm gaze. "Alexa, calm down. I'm right here. There's nothing to worry about," he said, his voice like a soothing breeze in the desert of Alexa's heart."How can I be calm, Shane? I'm afraid of a repeat of what happened a few months ago." Alexa's face turned pale."Are you referring to the accident that happened to you and your fiancé?" Shane asked.Alexa just nodded her head. Her eyes glanced into the rearview mirror, seeing the shadow of a black sedan that kept looming over them like a ghostly figure unwilling to let go of its prey. The car followed them at the same distance, like a wolf stalking its prey in the dark.The driver sitting in the front felt something was wrong. "Mr. Morgan,

    At the door of Drew's ward, a female nurse who was paid twice his salary was waiting for Drew with an attentive face.When the door opened, Drew's bright eyes immediately lit up at the sight of Shane. Without hesitation, the eight-year-old boy held out both hands. Alexa smiled, then she stepped closer, but her steps were halted when Drew suddenly shook his head just seconds before Alexa touched the boy."Shane, hold me," Drew said hoarsely.Alexa's hand was still frozen in the air. Shane who saw that immediately felt bad, although in the end he still gave Drew a hug.The boy hugged Shane tightly. Alexa, who had lowered her arms, looked a little disappointed when she saw Drew's reaction. She held back, hiding the feelings etched on her face.Shane felt the tension. "Be patient, Alexa," he said softly, patting Drew's shoulder gently. "Drew just needs time to accept you as his brother."Alexa nodded slowly, though her heart was a little pricked. "I understand, Shane."Drew's small eyes

    Shane and Alexa made their way to Drew's hospital room. Alexa deliberately wore a mask so that no one would recognize her as actress Lexy Court. While Shane continued to walk casually beside Alexa, with Alexa holding Shane's hand.They continued to talk, especially about Drew.The rows of hospital corridors that were pure white and smelled of antiseptic seemed to separate them from the outside world full of intrigue and lies.A luxurious and sexy looking woman seemed to walk from the direction of the corridor opposite to the direction Alexa and Shane were headed. Alexa, who was focused on talking to Shane, did not notice the woman's appearance.As they crossed paths, the fancy and sexy-looking woman squealed, trying to stop Alexa."Hey, you! Wait!"Shane turned to the woman with a furrowed brow, while Alexa who had glanced at the woman, immediately looked down.Alexa said to herself, 'She? Why did I have to meet this rotten woman?'The woman was Scarlett Hayes, a movie actress who had

    Shane was dumbfounded by Alexa's request. He could only remain silent without being able to give any answer. By now Alexa had returned to her room.It looks like Alexa followed him to the washroom and Shane didn't notice Alexa's presence. It looks like Alexa also saw when Shane kissed Ciara. Because of this, Shane had trouble sleeping and kept wondering."What does that mean? Is she really jealous or just wants me to be professional?’ asked Shane to himself who was currently walking back and forth. "There's no way Alexa likes me, right? She just wants me to play the role well. Yes, she does.’ muttered Shane.Shane tried to convince himself that Alexa wanted him to be professional, acting as her husband. Shane would continue to believe that. He only went to bed at 2am because he kept thinking about Alexa's words.The next day Shane woke up a little late. He quickly ran to the bathroom and cleaned herself up in a hurry.“Shit!” cursed Shane as he ran from the bathroom towards the walk-in

    Catherine feels like vomiting blood when she hears a stranger refer to her as an old woman. While Steven, her boyfriend, always called her the most beautiful woman in Riverdale City."How dare you-""Enough!" Alexa interrupted Catherine. "From now on, my husband will rule this castle.""No way! I'm still Viktor Kingsley's legal wife, even though he's dead!" screeched an angry Catherine.Alexa chuckled and shook her head. "Did you forget or pretend to forget the contents of my dad's will? You only have a 15% interest in my dad's estate. 85% will belong to me and my brother after we each turn 25 or get married."Catherine was silent with anger exploding in her chest.Alexa continued her speech. "This main pavilion will be our domain as well as the west and east pavilions." Alexa's eyes stared intently at Catherine. "Because I am still being kind to you. From now on, pack your things and move to the south pavilion at the back of the palace!"Catherine's face was getting redder and so wer
