Chapter 2901 Melissa cast her gaze downward and uttered, “There are still six days until next Friday." Suddenly, a sense of bewilderment swept over Melissa.

Should Marcus truly venture abroad, would he remain within her sight? Could a new romance blossom in a year or two? Such scenarios were plausible.

In fact, Melissa was well aware of Marcus’ privileged background and handsome allure. Given his willingness, he could easily attract any woman, but Melissa believed she fell short.

(Eagles) Regardless of how Marcus treated her, Melissa was prepared to endure it; all she sought was an opportunity.

Sylvia showed kindness to Melissa.

Placing a tray before Melissa, Sylvia spoke with gentleness. “Indulge in some light fare for now; richer delights can grace your palate in a couple of days. The doctor noted your malnourished state.” Being a mother herself and exhibiting maternal concern, Sylvia remarked, “Even if you harbor aspirations for Mr. Fowler, prioritize self-care. A well-nurtured woman is universally appealing.” Gratefully, Melissa accepted the tray and nodded, expressing her thanks to Sylvia.

Observing Melissa partake in her meal, Sylvia sighed in relief. “Take as much time as you need. There's a caregiver stationed outside; summon her for any requirements. I have pressing matters at the company, but I'l visit you tomorrow.” As Melissa rose, intending to escort Sylvia out, Sylvia intervened, “No need.

precedence. Focus on recuperating. I'm taking my leave now.” Once more, Melissa expressed her gratitude to Sylvia in a hushed tone.

Following Sylvia's departure, Melissa bowed her head, savoring the five-star hotel's culinary creation. Despite the discomfort in her stomach, she consumed a substantial portion of the food.

After eating, Melissa entered a brief reverie.

Reflecting, she recalled Marcus as the one who transported her to the hospital. Despite his anger, he lingered by her side.

Did this suggest a lingering soft spot for her? Following a moment of contemplation, Melissa grabbed the phone and dialed Marcus’ number.

A beep emitted from her phone, momentarily leaving her bewildered.

After an extended pause, she dialed him once more. Upon answering, he adopted an icy tone. “What's the matter? If it's not urgent, spare me further calls.” A pang of pain gripped Melissa's heart.

She bit her lip and uttered, “I appreciate you bringing me to the hospital.” His response was devoid of emotion. He stated, “Il would do the same for even a stranger. No gratitude is necessary.

Chapter 2902 Having spoken, he lapsed into silence for a few moments, as if anticipating her response.

Desiring his presence and aware of his reluctance, Melissa humbly implored, “Could you come visit me, please?” A moment of astonishment gripped Marcus.

Melissa's tone betrayed both hurt and a touch of coquetry, a rare occurrence even during their time together. Despite her influence on him, Marcus, a highly disciplined individual, maintained self- control.

Melissa was his addiction, yet he possessed the will to break free.

Regaining composure, his tone turned even more stern. “I won't come over. Stop calling” With that, he promptly ended the call.

Clutching the phone, Melissa seated herself on the bed, lost in contemplation.

With a cheerful smile, the nurse wheeled in the trolley and remarked, “Miss Brown, another IV bottle is in order.” Melissa extended her arm wearily as the nurse secured it with a tourniquet. The slender needle penetrated her skin, releasing a small stream of deep red blood from her vein.

Approaching, the nurse offered gentle words of comfort to Melissa.

Despite everything appearing fine, Melissa struggled to find calm within herself.

An intense desire to see Marcus overwhelmed Melissa. She recognized the shame in persistently seeking him out, yet her yearning to reclaim him prevailed.

“Sorry, but I wish to leave the hospital.” Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated for All Books Updates...

(Eagles) ‘s (Eagles) Without waiting for the nurse's response, Melissa swiftly removed the needle.

Neglecting a change of attire, Melissa hastily exited, clutching her phone and sporting only indoor slippers.

“Miss Brown!” Startled, the nurse and nursing worker pursued Melissa, but the elevator doors shut before they could reach her. Observing the diminishing number on the elevator display, the nursing worker urgently dialed Sylvia.

“Miss Ramos, Miss Brown has left.

She was still connected to the drip when she removed the needle and fled.” As a seasoned professional in the workplace, Sylvia adeptly handled the situation.

She promptly reassured, “Stay at the hospital. I'l coordinate efforts to locate her.” The nursing worker expressed gratitude to Sylvia before ending the call.

Sylvia sighed, and then entered the conference room by pushing the door open.

Chapter 2903 Marcus presided over a general shareholder's meeting, with top Fowler Group executives such as Korbyn and Waylen present, alongside Rena, a five percent shareholder in the Fowler Group.

Amidst the intense quarrels among shareholders over the Livebop project, unanimous disagreement persisted regarding Marcus relocating for over a year.

The concern stemmed from the anticipated chaos within the Fowler Group during that period in his absence.

Undeterred, Marcus had firmly resolved to personally pursue the Livebop project. His task mow was to garner support from all shareholders, though the Fowler family, in particular, voiced the strongest opposition.

(Eagles) Approaching the age of 30, Marcus remained unmarried, prompting speculation about his intentions regarding marriage.

Despite external inquiries about his son's marital status, Waylen refrained from openly challenging Marcus’ stance. Outwardly, Waylen maintained a neutral demeanor, revealing his true sentiments only to Rena, who was privy to his thoughts.

In the midst of the meeting, Sylvia discreetly approached Marcus, whispering, “Mr. Fowler, Melissa left the hospital. Shall we dispatch someone to locate her, or would you prefer me to handle it?" Marcus was taken aback.

Clearing his throat, he inquired sotto voce, “Why did she leave the hospital?” Sylvia, instead of responding, maintained eye contact with him.

A realization dawned on Marcus.

His unwillingness to face Melissa prompted her to venture out in search of him. His emotions were complex, but ultimately, he declared coldly, “If she chose to leave, let her be." Sylvia blinked, sensing Marcus’ waning patience.

“You may leave,” he instructed tersely.

Sylvia acknowledged it with a nod as she departed at a measured pace.
