Lily Gray responded with a simple “hmm” and abruptly changed the topic, “You must have just arrived there, right? If you’re coming back tomorrow night, doesn’t that mean you’ll have to rush from the company to the airport?”
Lily Gray thought that Aidan Lucas wouldn’t mix up his personal and professional life.
However, this man had been a little abnormal lately, and she was really worried that he would neglect his work and rush back to see her.
Well, even though thinking like that made her feel warm inside.
But if it really affected his work, she would feel bad about it.
“Don’t worry, I’ve taken care of everything here. Be good and wait for me at home, I’ll be back tomorrow night to spoil my wife,” Aidan said, his voice playful and seductive.
Hearing the man’s seductive voice, Lily Gray couldn’t help but blush.
“Stop it, I’m going to sleep, I’m not waiting for you!”
The two talked on the phone for a while longer.
It wasn’t until Lily Gray started yawning that Aidan urged her to get into bed and go to sleep.
On his end of the phone, daybreak had arrived in M Country.
Aidan hung up the call, his eyes gazing deep into the horizon as the sun began to rise.
The cold and handsome face no longer showed the gentleness he displayed during the phone call.

M Country.
After breakfast, Aidan Lucas sat in the reception room, listening to a report from his personal doctor.
“Sir, Miss Ford is weak, but thankfully, her heart is not showing any signs of rejection. The hospital has given her the best drugs available in the medical field, and with proper rest, she will recover quickly.”
This personal doctor was temporarily responsible for taking care of Hannah Ford.
The two authoritative medical professors in M Country who specialized in heart recovery were on their way to the Manor.
Once they arrived, they would form a new medical team dedicated to serving Hannah Ford.
“Alright, I understand,” Aidan nodded and stood up.
He planned to go to Hannah’s room to say goodbye to her.
“By the way, sir,” the personal doctor stopped him as he prepared to leave.
“Although Miss Ford’s heart is not rejecting the transplant, she’s only recently had a new heart, and she cannot handle too much stimulation, physically or mentally. You should instruct the people taking care of her to be cautious and avoid saying anything that might upset her.”
The personal doctor had been charmed by Hannah Ford’s frail and pitiful appearance.
He didn’t know the specifics of the situation between Aidan and Hannah.
However, before his arrival, the elegant and graceful Madam Ford had pleaded bitterly for him to speak in favor of her daughter. Thus, he ended up unconsciously delivering this message.
Aidan halted in his steps, his sharp gaze landing on the doctor’s face.
The doctor felt a chill under his stare, his legs growing weak.
As he tried to say something to make amends, Aidan abruptly looked away.
Without a word, he left the reception room.

Aidan arrived at Hannah’s room.
The curtains had been drawn back, sunlight streamed through the windows, bringing vitality to the entire room.
Bella Scott wasn’t there, Mrs. Holbrook, the senior butler of the Manor, was pouring water for Hannah, who had just finished her breakfast.
“Mrs. Holbrook, please step out, I have something to talk to Hannah about.”
“Yes, young master.” Mrs. Holbrook left the room, carrying the tray obediently.
As she was leaving, she glanced at Hannah and gave her an encouraging look when Aidan’s back was turned.
She mouthed silently, “Miss Hannah, good luck!”
Hannah Ford received Mrs. Holbrook’s encouragement and nodded imperceptibly.
Her gaze at Aidan was even gentler and softer than before.
