Read You’r Gonna Miss Me When I’M Gone Novel Chapter 121
Chapter 121 Are You in Love With Me, Lucian? Lucian looked down to watch Calista. The woman was frowning. Despite being forced to lean in his embrace, her eyes were fixed on Hector. It looked to him like she was focused solely on the man across from her. His hand slid from her shoulder to her waist. He tightened his grip to forcefully direct her attention back to him. His eyes were dark. “Let’s go.” Jonathan had already parked the car next to the pair. All they needed to do was reach for the door to get in. “No…” Before she could refuse, Lucian forcefully led her into the car. Hector’s expression darkened. He wanted to stop the man but was stopped by the two bodyguards. In a blink of an eye, Lucian had ushered Calista into the vehicle and locked the doors. The car whirred to life and sped away from the hospital. Jonathan wasn’t the only person in the car. David was also there. Hector’s voice could be heard through the roar of the engine and reached the two people in the backseat who wore vastly different expressions. “Lucian Northwood, if you force yourself on Calista, I’ll fucking kill you!” He emphasized how Lucian was forcing himself on her because he knew he had no right to meddle in their affairs as an outsider. Even if they shared a strained relationship and agreed to a divorce, it was logical for them to be together as long as they remained legally wedded. He could only intervene if Calista didn’t want this to happen. Men understood one another very well. The man had displayed clear signs of possessiveness. Hector knew best what would happen in such situations. But nothing happened per Hector’s imagination. Lucian didn’t do anything to her. He immediately released her once the door closed. The two sat next to one another with a large gap between them. Not a soul in the car spoke up. Even their breaths were barely audible. Calista turned to Lucian who had his eyes closed and leaning back against his seat. His long lashes cast shadows on his cheeks. His lips welted. The shadows outlined his +15 BONUS David glanced at the rearview mirror to see the pair ignoring one another as if they were feuding. He couldn’t help but speak up, “Mrs. Northwood, there’s a drugstore right ahead. Please buy some medicine that can help with treating Mr. Northwood. He’s also heavily injured. He’s been occupied by meetings today and had no time to visit the hospital. Mr. Calloway has been with the army for years and is part of the special forces where he endured the harshest training. His skill cannot be underestimated.” Lucian’s eyes remained closed. He didn’t stop David from giving the suggestion. But neither did he agree to it. Jonathan had already pulled up in front of the drugstore. He got out of the car and considerately opened the door for her. Calista said nothing. Eyes fixed onto her. David especially looked ready to get down on his knees to pray for mercy with his hands clasped together. He was afraid she would say no and loudly recited the names of the medications he needed her to get. With the car window opened, his voice carried far enough that those near the pharmacy could hear him. Now, even more eyes looked their way. Jonathan also wore a pleading expression Calista couldn’t bear seeing an elder looking at her like that. She knew if she refused, he might keep the door open and remain where he was until Lucian spoke up. She wasn’t about to let David off the hook now that she had been put on the spot. She said sarcastically, “You’re certainly doing your job, David. You’re receiving the salary of an assistant while doing a mother’s job.” She wondered what assistant would care for their employer this much. A grown man was begging a young woman like her. Where was his dignity? David smiled. He didn’t mention a word about Lucian’s bad mood. The only ones who had to suffer were people like him who had to go to and fro the CEO’s office more than a dozen times a day. -With how nerve–wracking it was, the job wasn’t one an ordinary person could handle. Would he end up dying of a heart attack before he could retire? Calista went to get the supplies. Apart from the iodine and gauze, she didn’t know what else was needed to treat wounds. But, she had taken a look at Hector’s pile of medications Ghe remembered a few Once she got back to the car, she tossed the supplies at Lucian. She couldn’t be bothered to do anything with it. +15 BONUS Twenty minutes later, the car pulled up at the apartment. She got out of the car, only for Lucian to follow her. She frowned and turned to speak, highly displeased. […]
