30 Days of Passion and Revenge-Chapter 66: My Woman

If not for the fear of retribution, she would have left the perverted man without looking back.

Ethan Blackwood was extremely close to her, his breath enveloping her, his fingertips playing with her ear, and his deep eyes staring at her with keen interest as if he would do something to her the next second.

Lily felt uncomfortable with his closeness and abruptly picked up the large glass to drink the apple juice.

The glass immediately blocked Ethan, who had his brows furrowed in annoyance. "Lily, can you eat a bit better?!"

Sure, but in front of him, she was too lazy to show any of her good side.

Lily held the large glass by herself, and Ethan looked disgusted, lost interest, and withdrew his hand from her.

Lily breathed a sigh of relief.

"Knock, knock——"

The ward door was knocked twice, and Ethan looked up coldly. "Come in."

Two bodyguards walked in step, closed the ward door, and one of them stepped forward to report, "It has been found out that it was the chairman of Carter Group, Mr. Bill Carter, who had a sudden heart attack and is still in emergency treatment."

"Bang——"

The glass fell completely, shattering into pieces.

The chairman of Carter Group, Bill Carter, Alex’s father, Uncle Bill, how could he...

Lily looked at the bodyguard in a daze and blurted, "Why? Have you found out?"

Ethan glanced at the broken glass on the ground and turned his eyes to her. His gaze was gloomy, revealing neither joy nor anger.

"I talked with reporters still waiting outside the hospital, and there are all kinds of answers. Some say that Carter Group has suffered an unprecedented public relations crisis this time, and Bill Carter couldn’t bear the burden and fell down."

Another bodyguard suddenly picked up the "EYL" magazine that Nanny had arranged on the bedside table, pointing to the photo of Alice Johnson and the foreign man on it. "Some also say that Bill Carter saw such news, which was a blow, and he was so angry that he fell ill."

...

Lily’s hands and feet turned cold.

She was too arrogant, thinking the news would divert attention, but she didn’t expect to implicate Uncle Bill in falling ill.

"Bring the magazine here." Ethan suddenly said.

The bodyguard immediately handed over the "EYL" magazine, and Ethan directly flipped to the page reporting "Alice Johnson’s affair," his voice somewhat cold. "When did you write the manuscript?"

Before she was hospitalized, he asked her, and she said it wasn’t finished. How could it be that the "EYL" magazine was published in just two days?

Faced with Ethan’s question, Lily held her breath nervously and said cautiously, "I sent the photos to the magazine; maybe it was written by another reporter." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Ethan stared at her, neither believing her nor not believing her, and continued to flip through two pages, his face somewhat displeased. "Your magazine’s point of view is very protective of Carter Group, huh? There is not a single photo of Alex."

His eyes are so sharp.

Lily’s eyes flickered slightly. She stepped forward and snatched the "EYL" magazine from his hand, saying casually, "Maybe it’s a little reporter who has a crush on Alex, so he is reluctant to attack him. Forget it; it’s just gossip news anyway."

"Is that so?" Ethan asked coldly.

"What else." Lily forced a smile. "You said I’m not kind? You don’t think I wrote the news, do you? I have no reason to support Carter Group, right?"

"Better be."

Ethan didn’t ask persistently but looked up at the two bodyguards. "Are the reporters still outside the hospital?"

"Yes, all reporters are at the hospital entrance now." The bodyguard nodded. "Mr. Blackwood, should we transfer to the hospital? There are so many reporters here, you may be exposed."

"But this is the best private hospital in the country." Another bodyguard glanced at Lily and said.

Lily hoped Ethan would nod. Living in the same private hospital as Uncle Bill, he would run into Alex sooner or later. The risk was too great.

Suddenly, she felt she had suffered a loss eating the spicy meal made by Ethan... How could it be so coincidental?

I don’t know how Uncle Bill is now; I hope he is safe and sound. Otherwise, she will never be at ease in her life.

Ethan stood up from the bedside and said coldly, "Call the secretariat and let them contact the Charité Hospital in Europe. Let them prepare the best ward and doctor within three days."

"Yes, Mr. Blackwood." The two bodyguards received the instruction and left immediately.

Contact the Charité Hospital in Europe?

He won’t want to...

"You won’t want me to be hospitalized in Europe, will you?" Lily was a bit silly, still holding a thin hope, and asked, hoping Ethan would say it was not for her to live... He just happened to order the Charité Hospital in Europe...

This is getting further and further away from her expectations. If she goes to Europe to be hospitalized, it’s a fuss.

"Charité Hospital is the best hospital in the world for treating stomach diseases." Ethan glanced at her, his eyes dark. "Lily, don’t tell me you have objections."

Of course, she has objections...

Suddenly sending her to Europe, she has become a bird with broken wings and feet. In the country, she can still try to find a way to leave Ethan’s imprisonment. Europe is the Blackwood family’s territory; front and back will be his people once there. How can she escape then?

"I..." Lily hesitated and said tactfully, "Now, many people have stomach diseases; it’s not a big deal as long as you pay attention to the diet."

"I don’t care about others." Ethan stood by her bed, leaned over to approach her, and lifted her chin with one hand. "My woman cannot have any illness."

I really don’t understand what he is thinking. Sometimes, he doesn’t treat her like a person and loses his temper whenever he wants. Other times, he seems to care about her, cooks for her, skips work to be with her, and accompanies her to the hospital.

She is becoming more and more unfamiliar with Ethan.

Ethan approached her face, and just as his lips were about to kiss her, Lily suddenly said, "I want to watch TV."

"Lily!" Ethan gritted his teeth; the fire in his eyes was apparent.

She dared to find reasons to avoid his touch every time?!

"I really want to watch TV," Lily said innocently, crawled to the other end of the bed, and took the remote control from the bedside table.

The large TV was turned on, and there was overwhelming live news. Some TV stations even made it into a special. The door of this private hospital appeared on more than a dozen screens.

Lily casually set a TV station to pay attention and went on. Uncle Bill had an accident; I don’t know if it’s serious or not...

"Ah——"

Suddenly, an excited scream came out of the TV, followed by more screams from the reporters.

The camera was immediately turned to several high-end cars entering the hospital, with dozens of bodyguards clearing the way for the reporters.
