30 Days of Passion and Revenge-Chapter 67: Unwelcome Encounter

The camera immediately switched to several high-end vans entering the hospital, with dozens of bodyguards paving the way and blocking the reporters.

"After the chairman of Carter Group, Bill Carter, was admitted to the hospital for a sudden heart attack, all the directors of Carter Group have arrived... Ah! The only son of the Carter family and his fiancée are here too!"

The reporter from the leading TV station excitedly spoke to the camera, followed the crowd, and rushed toward the vans.

Lily watched the TV screen and couldn’t help but clench her fists. Her heart pounded as she saw the familiar faces on the screen.

Ethan followed and sat on the bed without covering the quilt. The two of them sat cross-legged on the quilt. Ethan pulled her into his arms, noticing her tense body. "What’s wrong?"

"Nothing." Lily shook her head, her body still stiff. This was a live broadcast, which meant Alex and Alice were outside the hospital building...

On TV, in front of the van, the black bodyguards stood in two rows, desperately blocking the reporters. Alex was the first to come out of the car, wearing oversized sunglasses. His face was worn and tired, and his tie was slightly skewed. Alice followed, wearing a white round-necked long dress, a beautiful face wearing a pair of white-framed sunglasses, and red lips tightly pursed.

Reporters still desperately took photos and rushed forward despite being intercepted by bodyguards.

"Miss Johnson, is the report in ’EYL’ true? Do you have an affair?"

"Are Mr. Carter and Miss Johnson appearing in the hospital simultaneously to illustrate that the news in the magazine is false?"

"Miss Johnson, do you think you have betrayed Mr. Carter now? Will the Carter family still want you as a daughter-in-law?"

"Mr. Carter, did your father see the report about Miss Johnson and have a sudden heart attack?"

"Mr. Carter, after the ’tax evasion gate,’ now there is news about your fiancée’s affair, and your father has been admitted to the hospital. Do you have anything to say?!"

Reporters threw out one sharp question after another. Alex and Alice did not speak, so they walked into the hospital under the escort of bodyguards.

The camera suddenly gave a close-up—

When the reporters asked Alice many questions, she kept shrinking to Alex’s side, and Alex reached out and gently held her waist. A gentle and considerate action made Alice smile with relief.

The flash followed them into the hospital before it stopped...

Watching the TV screen, Lily bit her lips white.

"What do you mean?" Lily pretended not to understand and asked.

"Can you not understand?" Ethan messed up her long hair. "I don’t know which idiot in your magazine wrote such an article."

She was the idiot.

Lily pursed her lips and didn’t speak.

The news anchor on TV was analyzing the series of events that the Carter Group had suffered, and the screen gave Alex a big close-up. The affairs of the Carter family are now more lively and concerned than the gossip of celebrities.

"The company has a public relations crisis, Alex’s father is in the hospital, and his fiancée has a scandal; Alex has suddenly become a complete victim." Ethan stared at the TV screen and said coldly. "As long as he performs well at this critical moment, public opinion will praise him overwhelmingly."

Lily echoed in her heart; she also thought so.

She believed in Alex’s ability to respond; besides, she had told him to think in his fiancée. As long as he insisted on believing in Alice, the public would instantly elevate him to the image of a perfectly good man.

"I’m not watching anymore. It’s noisy."

Ethan picked up the remote control and turned off the TV.

The ward was no longer noisy with the voices of the anchor and reporters, and suddenly, it became quiet. Ethan hugged Lily, her head leaning on his shoulder, her mind full of the TV screen.

Alex held Alice when the reporters attacked her. He performed very well. Apart from Uncle Bill being hospitalized, everything else was as she imagined, but why, the heart is still painful...

The place in her heart that belongs to Alex has been rooted and entirely occupied by him.

"Knock, knock——"

The door was knocked again, and Ethan impatiently responded, "Come in!"

A bodyguard came in with a broom and cleaned the place where Lily had smashed the glass and then mopped it clean. Lily watched in amazement. Ethan’s bodyguard also works as a cleaner.

Before leaving, the bodyguard remembered and said, "Mr. Blackwood, just now, there was news from the hospital that Bill Carter has been rescued."

The door was slammed shut.

Lily’s whole body, which was tense, suddenly relaxed. Fortunately, Uncle Bill is okay; otherwise, she doesn’t know what to do. If something happened to him, she would think she harmed him.

Now it’s good; everything is slowly developing as she initially thought. When the ’Hottopic’ press release comes out, the public who attack Carter Group will become fewer and fewer...

"Lily."

"Hmm?"

"It’s still early; since you don’t want to sleep, how about I accompany you to do something?" Ethan suddenly leaned close to her ear and made a sexy, deep voice.

... Lily looked at him speechless. Her desire to escape was too late, and Ethan instantly pressed her on the big bed.

He used the remote control to close the curtains. Ethan grabbed her hands with one hand and pressed them over her head, kneeling on both sides of her body.

At the moment when he was about to kiss her, Lily hurriedly frowned and said, "My stomach is uncomfortable, very uncomfortable; you will press the pain on me like this."

She has no mood to do anything with him at this time. No, she is not in the mood to do anything with Ethan at any time.

"Okay."

Ethan didn’t talk nonsense. Lily wondered why Ethan was so easy to talk to when he suddenly picked her up. After a spin, she was already lying on his chest.

Ethan leaned against the head of the bed, holding her with both hands. His eyes were deep, deliberately separating her legs to straddle himself, lifting her chin with one hand, and the corner of his lips hooked up. "Now it’s not pressing."

That was an excuse; she didn’t want him to touch her. What’s the difference in this position where the woman is on top, and the man is on the bottom?

Lily tried to get off him; Ethan held her waist with one hand to prevent her from struggling and pressed down on the back of her neck with the other hand. Looking up, he quickly captured her lips and kissed her. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

This posture made Lily feel embarrassed. She was still wearing a patient’s gown, straddling him like this, her hands forced to climb onto his shoulders, enduring his passionate kiss.

Ethan kissed her fervently yet gently. His hand slid down her body, creeping under her hospital gown and tenderly massaging her lower abdomen, sliding up slowly under the thin fabric of her hospital gown. He stopped at her belly button, circling it with his thumb before moving higher to cup her breast.

His kiss was fiery, grabbing her lips and tongue as if devouring everything—a silver thread outlined from the corners of their mouths, outlining a lascivious taste.
