Chapter 772
The Rewritten Love: A Second Beginning
âCan you help him? Iâll do anything,â she said.
Lana searched everywhere for a treatment for Andrew, but no hospital could diagnose his condition.
Surprisingly, Kai, better known for his playful nature, was highly respected in the medical community.
Most doctors recommended her to consult him. She eventually found a hospital that tried to help Andrew, but his condition worsened. Having no other option, Lana came back home.
Kai headed to the parking garage. As he got into his car, Lana quickly slid into the passenger seat.
Kai said, âGet out.â
Lana replied, âNot until you agree.â
She thought she was being straightforward and assertive, but Kai assumed she was trying to seduce him. âAre you that eager to get intimate with me?â
Lana shot him a sharp look. âIf it werenât for Andrew, Iâd never even go near you.â Their relationship had been a mistake from the very beginning.
Kai smirked, unfazed. He started the car and drove out of the parking garage. As the city disappeared in the distance, Lana became more and more anxious. They reached a cliff with a stunning view of Ventropolis, surrounded by endless mountains. It was a scene Lana had never experienced. After parking, Kai reclined his seat and dozed off.
Lana nudged him. âKai, wake up! Andrewâs in bad shape, and heâs your brother. How can you be so indifferent? Do you want to see him suffer?â
Kaiâs eyes, bloodshot from exhaustion, opened wide. Realizing he had unbuckled his seatbelt, he suddenly moved, pinning Lana beneath him.
âAndrewâs going to be fine. Iâm not in the mood now, so give me some space,â he murmured.
Lana pushed against him. âWhatâs going on? Give me some room.â
âThis is on you, Lana,â he said, sounding drained. He leaned in, his head close to her neck, inhaling the subtle scent of her perfume.
âCome on, get up. Donât lean on me.â
Kai slid her car seat back, making a bit more space. Lana tried to find a comfortable spot, but it was a tight fit.
âIâm a little cramped here. Can you move over?â she pleaded.
After a few moments, Kaiâs steady breathing told Lana he was asleep.
Suddenly, Kaiâs phone rang loudly. He blinked awake and quickly grabbed it. Lana, startled, tried to sit up, but Kaiâs arm kept her steady. He glanced at her before answering, âHello, Agustin?â
âYou were at Portsmouth Fishing Village yesterday, right?â Agustin asked.
Kai focused on Lana, his expression turning serious. âYes, I was.â
âThereâs been some news. Sheâs⦠sheâs gone. Was that your doing?â
