Five Years Wasted Now They Beg Her Back novel Chapter 109

Even now, Lucian’s first instinct was to dismiss Grace.

It was all for show.

Why would someone in biopharmaceuticals be reading ancient medical texts?

He was about to shove the book back when his eyes were drawn to a stack of papers tucked beside it.

It was a sheaf of yellowed research manuscripts.

The edges of the paper were brittle.

They looked old.

The pages were covered in complex molecular structure diagrams and long strings of analytical data he couldn't comprehend.

However, a title at the top of the first page caught his attention.

Purple Blood Grass…

The name was like a rusty key, violently prying open a memory he had deliberately buried.

Five years ago.

He had been in a vicious street racing accident that caused massive internal bleeding. Doctors had declared him to be in critical condition several times.

They said he was missing a rare clotting factor in his blood, and conventional drugs were useless.

His only hope was a special medicine derived from something called “Purple Blood Grass.”

But that medicine was impossible to find on the market.

Just when everyone thought he was going to die, Lilian had appeared in his hospital room like an angel, holding the life-saving drug.

When he woke up, he asked her where she got it.

She was vague, saying only that she had begged many people and pulled a lot of strings to get it from a reclusive old professor.

At the time, he was moved beyond words, thinking of his sister as his lucky star.

And Grace?

She had only visited him once, from beginning to end.

And that was after he was already out of danger.

That day, she had looked utterly exhausted, with dark circles under her eyes, as if she hadn’t slept in days.

And how had he treated her?

Oh, right.

He had looked at her with disgust and told her to get out.
