In that moment of being tackled again, her head hit the ground.
A dull thud!
Her vision turned black.
Her brain buzzed.
Zane quickly got up, “I’m sorry, I just wanted to hug you, didn’t expect my foot to slip. Did you hit your head?”
Luna squinted her eyes, the person in front of her becoming more and more blurry, gradually losing all consciousness!
“Luna, Luna.” Zane called her, patting her, but she didn’t respond.
He panicked and immediately went to make a phone call.
In his flustered state, he took out his phone and it dropped to the ground. He hurriedly went to pick it up.
“Mm…”
Luna had a splitting headache.
Hearing the noise, Zane quickly came to her and tried calling her, “Luna.”
“Help me up,” she said, furrowing her brows.
Zane helped her up onto the couch.
Concerned, he asked, “Did you hit your head? Should we go to the hospital for a check-up?”
Luna looked at him and shook her head, “No need.”
“But just now…”
“Zane, take that couple back home,” Luna interrupted him.
“Why?” Zane didn’t understand. “If we take them back, Orion will definitely capture them and use them to threaten you. It’s better to keep them hidden.”
Luna said, “No, Orion won’t capture them again, and they can’t be hidden forever. They also need a normal life.”
“Orion told you he won’t capture them again? Do you believe him?” Zane held Luna’s hand. “You must not be fooled by Orion. He’s definitely scheming something behind the scenes. Don’t fall for it.”
“He won’t,” Luna said.
Zane finally sensed something, “You… trust him so much?”
Luna pulled her hand away, stood up, and walked towards the window, her back facing Zane. “Zane, thank you for always taking care of me. I’m sorry for dragging you into this.”
Zane stared at his empty hand, “The two of us, why should we be so distant.”
He turned to look at Luna, feeling that something was off.
“Luna, you…” he started.
“I seem to remember something from the past,” Luna said without turning around. “I owe you the most.”
Zane smiled, “Everything I’ve done for you, I did willingly.”
“Zane, you should go back first. I want to be alone,” Luna said.
Zane fell silent for a moment. “Alright, if you need anything, contact me anytime.”
Luna softly murmured an agreement.
Once Zane left, she turned around and walked to the table, picking up her phone and dialing a number.
The call connected quickly.
“I have something I need your help with,” Luna said.
The voice on the other end responded, “Sure, go ahead.”
…
While Freya was drinking water, someone unknown to her had put sulfuric acid in her cup.
Though the amount was small and the smell was faint, as a doctor, she immediately sensed it.
She could understand and tolerate when someone played tricks on her in the past.
But putting sulfuric acid in her drink?
If she actually drank it, it could cost her not just her life, but also her well-being.
In the past, she might have let it go, but this time, she was determined not to!
Instead of immediately going to the dean, she went to check the surveillance footage.
There were cameras in every corner of the hospital.
She went to the central control room and reviewed the footage.
She recalled the time she last drank water and pinpointed a specific time frame.
This way, the search would be faster.
As she watched the footage, many people came and went, but she could clearly see that no one approached her location.
At ten o’clock this morning, there was a routine discussion meeting.
So the research lab was empty.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in the footage!
