Chapter 44
Luciano
Luciano saw Anika wearing thin pajamas. She was curled up in the corner, completely soaked, with fresh red scratches on her hands and legs.
Luciano quickly turned off the shower. He grabbed a bathrobe and covered Anika's body, hiding her beautiful figure.
*Are you okay?"
Luciano's voice was not small, but Anika felt it was very weak.
It took Anika a long time to come to her senses. She looked up at him, her lips pale."I'm fine."Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
"I took you to the hospital."
Luciano bent down to hug her, but she dodged away.
Anika bit her lip hard."No."
All the hospitals in Oasisville relied on the Arellano family.Valentin already knew that I had come back. If he found out that I had taken medicine, he would definitely tell Joshua."
"If Joshua knew that I drugged his drink, it would be difficult for me to get close to him in the future..."
She managed to finish speaking, despite her strength More than four years ago, she faked her death.
If it weren't for Trent's tactics, she wouldn't have been able to deceive Valentin at all.
Trent is not here now.If she went to the hospital, the hospital staff would definitely inform Valentin about her condition as soon as possible.
This is also why Anika chose to solve the problem herself.
Luciano saw the spilled wine in the living room before entering. At that moment, he already understood most of it.
His brows furrowed slightly."But what about your health..."
"Go and get me some ice cubes."
"Yes."
Luciano turned around and went to the kitchen to get some ice cubes from the refrigerator.
Luciano dumped a bag of ice into the bathtub. The chilling coldness made Anika feel a little better.
Luciano brought the medicine box over again.
"Thank you,Anika said sincerely.
Luciano didn't say anything. He walked to the door and quietly waited for Anika.
Because Anika hung up Evan's call, Evan got worried that something happened to her, so he called Trent to
inform him.
Trent called Anika but no one answered, so he asked Luciano to come over and see what had happened. An hour had passed.
The effect of the medicine finally subsided.
Anika applied medicine. She changed her clothes and walked out of the bathroom.
Luciano was still waiting outside the bathroom.
"Tonight,I'll trouble you. You go rest, she said weakly.
"Okay."
Luciano glanced at her and turned around, leaving the room.
After he left, Anika realized that it was already late. So she sent a voice message to Clare and the others to let them know she was safe.
On the other side.
After Joshua returned to Rafter Villa, he couldn't fall asleep.
Joshua stood on the balcony, smoking a cigarette, with every movement of Anika replaying in his mind.Anika's graceful figure seemed to appear before his eyes. Joshua's throat suddenly became dry. Unbeknownst to him, the cigarette had burned down and reached his fingertips. It was only then that he snapped out of his daze.
Joshua didn't sleep all night. The next morning, Joshua arrived at the company
Payton reported his work as usual.
Joshua was listening absentmindedly. He suddenly asked, "Has Anika arrived?"
Payton paused for a moment and then shook his head.
"I heard that she seemed to have taken sick leave."
Was she sick?
"Keep an eye on her. Remember, we must not let her escape," Joshua said.
"Yes."
When Payton left, he bumped into Violet, who was wearing custom designer clothes and looked exquisite. "Mr. Burke, who did you let escape?"
