Chapter 52
“She’s had a fever, I’ve treated her, James perched on the coffee table, “Who’s this chick, weren’t you supposed to be at Penelope’s birthday bash today? How come you’re here with a woman..
“Now that she’s fine, you can leave, Lucian picked up his coffee cup
Really, you’re so cold I came to help this little beauty, and now that she’s been treated, you’re kicking me out?” Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Lucian smiled dismissively. “Am I supposed to invite you to dine here?”
111 pass. I’m out,” James walked out of the bedroom, stretching out his arm to pat Shawn’s shoulder, “Mr. Brummett, who’s that woman?”
Even Shawn had no clue.
“She’s just a regular girl, and I’m not sure either.”
“Really?”
Really Mr. Lindberg just got off the plane. He’s been working non stop these days just to make it to today’s party. But on the way to Sunset Hotel, I almost hit this lady, and she passed out, so Mr. Lindberg suggested we come back here”
“Have to say, Lucian’s taste hasn’t changed a bit,” James said, “He still likes innocent young girls, just like Yuliana Crane back in the day” Hearing that name, Shawn’s heart almost jumped out of his chest.
He quickly said, “Dr. Burke, please don’t mention that name casually if Mr. Lindberg hears it…”
James raised an eyebrow, “I gotcha.”

As dawn approached, the rain gradually lessened.
Allison opened her eyes. Because of the sickness, her vision was a bit blurry, and she felt completely worn out. She looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings.
Where was this
The decor was in cold tones.
The silver–grey cashmere carpet was the same as the one at Juniper Ridge.
The furniture and the interior design style here were similar to Juniper Ridge but not exactly the same
She seemed to have seen Lucian in her dream.
Could it be that it wasn’t a dream?
Allison sat up, noticed an IV in her hand, quickly pulled out the needle, and staggered out.
She was sure this was Lucian’s place
She had been to Juniper Ridge as Penelope, the interior design style here was too similar to Juniper Ridge, it was totally his style.
Allison ran down the stairs as if chased by a wild beast.
In the living room, Lucian was reading a book. He looked up to see the panic–stricken woman.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and asked
“Are you awake?”
Then he saw the woman’s eyes filled with fear, and her face turned pale at once.
Allison was trembling involuntarily, this was truly Lucian’s home….
Wasn’t he supposed to be on a business trip? Why was he here?
How did she run into him?
Shouldn’t he be at Penelope’s birthday party even if he returned early?
“You fainted before my car, and I saved you.” Lucian closed his book, casually placed it on the sofa, then stood up and walked towards her
And Allison, she was stepping back.
“I’m sorry. Mr Lindberg, I have to go”
This is the suburbs, there’s no transportation at night, where do you plan to go?” Lucian’s gaze suddenly fell on the woman’s bare feet, her toes were polished and stuny, stepping on the ash colored carpet. They looked even more like top–grade jade, delicate and exquisite
Allison said. “That’s none of your concern
Even if it meant walking, she wanted to go home. Here, she felt even more terrified.
She forced herself to walk out.
Lucian’s face turned even more somber, she kept appearing in his line of sight, deliberately drawing has attention. There’s no denying that even while he was on business, her face kept popping up in his mind, even repeatedly mistaking her for Penelope.
