Chapter 8

Elena’s POV

I parked my car in the hospital lot, I fixed my transparen’t eye glasses as I stepped out. This wasn’t where I expected to be today, but something in Lucas’s voice—desperation mixed with guilt—had pushed me here. I had to uncover Aurora’s dirty secret.

I walked briskly into the hospital lobby, forcing myself to remain calm and focused.

I walked to one of the nurses in the outpatient department “Hi, where is Miss Aurora’s room?” I asked politely.

The nurse glanced at her computer. “Room 100.”

“Thank you,” I nodded and headed down the hallway, keeping my steps purposeful. When I reached Room 100, I took a deep breath before pushing the door open.

Inside, Lucas was sitting at Aurora’s bedside, his hand wrapped around hers. As usual! His shoulders were hunched, his face filled with happiness as he saw me. Dr. Young was standing beside him, noting some things down on Aurora’s hospital folder with a professionally detached expression.
