Sloane walked to the bedside, her gaze landing on Lucas’ face. His features looked as though they had been
carved from fine marble-his brows sharp and noble, nose straight and high, lips full and well-shaped, the corners
of his mouth slightly raised. Just based on appearance, he was undoubtedly a sleeping prince.
She couldn't help but stare, slightly entranced. With looks like that, it was no wonder Stonebridge’s heiresses
flocked to him.
A moment later, she snapped out of it and reached out, placing her fingers on Lucas’ pulse, checking it carefully.
Slowly, her brows furrowed. His pulse was weak and chaotic, fading in and out. The condition was indeed
strange. It didn’t resemble any ordinary illness.
Sloane thought to herself. Tonight, she had cto find a chance to stop the engagement between the
Hawthorne family and the Rivers family.
She had returned this tto take revenge on the Rivers family. Of course, she didn’t want to see them grow
stronger.
Sloane began to consider the possibility of working with Lucas. His illness was unusual, and the Hawthorne
family’s situation was complicated. Getting involved might bring a lot of trouble for herself.
Her fingertips touched between Lucas’ brows. She hesitated, ultimately unable to bear letting such a beautiful
man die just like that.
She raised her hand and bit her own finger, drawing blood. Then she leaned down, her red lips pressing against
his, pried open his teeth, and passed the blood into his mouth.

Those deep eyes burst with a sharp, lethal aura-like a fierce tiger roused from slumber-his entire body exuding a
dangerous and overpowering presence.
Sloane didn’t have tto dodge. Their eyes met directly, and she immediately felt her hairs stand on end.

Her heart sounded an alarm, and she instinctively pulled away.
Pop!
In the tense silence of the room, that sound was magnified infinitely.
Both Sloane and Lucas froze. For a moment, the air felt frozen in place.
Right then, a faint sound cfrom outside the door.

Sloane reacted quickly, rolling to the side to lie down next to Lucas. She lifted the blanket and covered herself.
Fortunately, she had just cout of the asylum and was thin. Otherwise, she really wouldn't have fit.
At the stime, Lucas closed his eyes again, going along with her act.
The door was gently pushed open, and a few footsteps echoed in.
Someone walked over and stopped by the bed. Sloane's heart tightened.
“Andrew, how is Mr. Hawthorne today?” The voice belonged to an older woman.
“Sas always. No one knows when he'll wake up,” a younger man answered, his tone thick with worry.
“Sigh... Madam Tessa is nearly going mad with anxiety. If Mr. Hawthorne doesn’t wake up soon, what are we
going to do?” the woman said with a sigh.
Andrew Hawthorne comforted her with a few words, then escorted her out.
Once they left, Sloane threw off the blanket and sat up, breathing heavily.
“Who are you?” Lucas asked, still lying down, studying the girl in front of him- more accurately, the teenage girl.
There was a trace of caution and scrutiny in his eyes. Despite his weakened body, he maintained a natural calm
