Chapter 861: Skilled Hands
Luna closed her eyes, feeling drained of energy.
Freya tucked her in, saying, “Rest well.”
She couldn’t leave Luna here, not knowing or caring about her well-being.
She was determined to help Luna get better, no matter how difficult it may be.
She stayed in the hospital room for a long time.
She thought a lot about many things.
If Luna stayed here, she would never move past what Tyler did to her.
Starting fresh in a new place was the only way for her to overcome the darkness she was currently in.
To find a new life.
She went to negotiate with the team.
Considering Luna’s condition, the team agreed to Freya’s request.
But one thing was clear, Luna had to agree to it herself.
Freya would convince Luna.
The team said, “If you can persuade Luna to accept treatment and live well in the future, feel free to ask for any help you need.”
Freya had no requests, just saying, “I need a car arranged for when I take her away.”
“We will take care of it, don’t worry.”
In Luna’s current state, she would be taken care of for whatever reason.
If the team had no objections, then Freya just needed to carefully plan Luna’s future.
She wouldn’t try to persuade Luna with words.
She knew Luna needed time.
So she stayed by her side, waiting for her to figure things out.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
These days Luna didn’t speak much.
Freya set up a small bed in the hospital room, almost living and eating together with Luna.
She was worried Luna might do something drastic, and could only find peace by being with her constantly.
Eagle noticed that Freya hadn’t been resting well these days and suggested, “Madam, why don’t you rest at the hotel? I’ll watch over here.”
Freya shook her head. She couldn’t trust anyone but herself to be by Luna’s side.
She called Elijah.
Elijah understood her and assured her he would take care of things at home.
With no worries, she could stay here peacefully.
Eagle remarked, “Madam, you have dark circles under your eyes.”
Freya nonchalantly replied, “Just lack of sleep, it’s nothing.”
During her time at the hospital, Eagle kept her company, acting as a bodyguard but mostly running errands.
He had a bed of his own, resting on a bench in the hallway.
At noon, Eagle brought lunch.
He bought more than usual today.
“You bought so much, the three of us can’t finish it.”
Seeing Freya’s slender face, Eagle remained silent.
In the afternoon, the doctor came to examine Luna’s injuries.
“The surgery on your face needs to be done as soon as possible,” the doctor remarked.
The injuries were already severe, and any delay would lower the chances of full recovery.
The doctor urged Freya to persuade Luna quickly.
Freya was anxious, but Luna remained stubborn and silent.
Back in the hospital room, Freya closed the door.
“Freya,” Luna called out.
It was the first time Luna initiated a conversation with her during these days.
Freya walked over quickly to her bedside.
“Come with me! Please?” she said.
Instead of responding, Luna asked, “Who did you bring with you?”
Freya replied, “Elijah arranged a bodyguard for me. He has been with me for a while now, and he is very skilled.”
Luna only responded with an acknowledgment, not saying anything more.
Freya asked her, “Why do you ask?”
“I just feel that he cares about you.”
Freya realized that Eagle had always been like this.
Perhaps it was because she was his employer that he treated her well.
After all, Eagle was just doing his job for money.
She looked at Luna, “Let’s not talk about him. Let’s talk about you. If you don’t want to come with me, then I’ll stay here with you.”
