Chapter 33
Lucien didn’t even slow down as he walked straight out of the restaurant and got into the car.
Galen asked, “Mr. Fenwick, shall we head to Paradise Club or go home?”
Lucien chose the first option.
Soon, they arrived at Paradise Club. Jason hadn’t expected Lucien to show up, and he quickly greeted his uncle with a smile. “Uncle Lucien, it’s already late. If you stay here, Calista’s definitely going to storm in and cause a scene later.
“These are all my guests. I can’t afford to be embarrassed. Uncle Lucien, can you do me a favor this once?”
The lounge was packed. But the moment Lucien walked in with his overpowering presence, everyone stood up and made way for him.
Indeed, Jason had a point.
In the past, if Lucien weren’t home by 10:30 pm, Calista would either bombard his phone with calls or flood him with messages. If she got lucky and saw his location on social media, she would immediately rush over.
But not this time. Lucien hadn’t received a single message from Calista all day.
Meanwhile, Calista had just been woken up by the sound of nurses chatting nearby.
“Did you see the trending news today? Lucien Fenwick, the CEO of Fenwick Group, got caught in a scandal. He was on a date with Julia! Ugh, I’m so jealous!”
“Seriously, no matter how you look at the photos, they just look so perfect together.”
“Right? I totally agree.”
“If I ever got to sit with Lucien and drink that 30–thousand–dollar wine, I’d die happy.”
“Do you think that Julia might actually be the hidden Mrs. Fenwick? I came across a post a while back that said that Lucien was already married.”
“You know what? That might actually be true.”
In less than two hours, Julia’s social media account was flooded with comments. Her profile had become completely inaccessible.
After all, Julia was a top–tier celebrity in the entertainment industry. Even the slightest incident involving her could cause a media
storm.
“The patient just woke up, and you’ve got time to chat?” Alexander remarked.
“Dr. Lester, we were just about to make our rounds. We’ll leave now.”
The noisy chatter faded, and a second later, Alexander stepped into the room. When he saw that Calista was awake, he switched on all the lights in the room.
He walked up to her and said gently, “If there’s no one at home with you, I recommend staying in the hospital for three more days to prevent something like this from happening again.”
