My Funreal 35

Suddenly, a phone ring broke the silence in the ward. 

Kael frowned, pulled his phone out of his suit pocket, and glanced at it–his eyes darkened instantly. 

He ruffled the top of Nova’s hair, handed her the food container, and told her to eat well. “I need to take this call. Wait for me.” 

Nova gave a faint “hmm.” 

Kael left the ward and found an empty corner to answer. 

“Mr. Voss, we found something.” 

Kael paused his hand–he’d been rubbing his temples–and narrowed his eyes, his voice cold. “Spit it out.” 

Sam’s voice was cautious. “Today… it was indeed Corin Thorne who brought Mrs. Voss to the hospital. The surveillance footage shows him carrying her to the ward. I asked the on–duty doctor, and they said that he and Mrs. Voss…” 

Kael’s expression turned menacing. “Say it!” 

“The doctor said Corin and Mrs. Voss were alone in the ward for over twenty minutes…” 

Alone. 

For over twenty minutes. 

Those words made Kael’s eyes redden with anger. 

A man and a woman, alone in a room–anything could happen… 

Also, about Sloane–there’s something fishy about her abduction. The two men who attacked her? They really aren’t from New York…” 

Kael let out a cold laugh. His grip on the phone tightened so hard, it was almost crushed–proof of his rage. 

Last time at Jasmine Manor, Nova and Corin’s behavior had been suspicious. 

Now they were together again. 

And Sloane’s attack? Chances were Corin had done it for Nova! 

He thought back to Nova’s firm denial earlier, then frowned deeply. He couldn’t tell how much of what Nova said was true anymore. 

low could there be so many coincidences? 

lang! 

Cael’s eyes went hard–he socked the cold wall with his fist. 

On the other end of the line, Sam’s heart raced–this was a sign Kael was about to explode… Nova and Corin were in big trouble this time. 

‘Reinvestigate what happened at Jasmine Manor. Use any means necessary–make those servants talk. I want the truth.” Kael spoke each word slowly, his eyes is dark as a deep pool, suppressing his anger. 

Sam wiped the sweat from his brow and quickly agreed. 

Kael’s mood remained turbulent even after hanging up, with rage boiling in his chest. 

Just the thought of Nova being with Corin–or of them hiding something from him… or of Nova betraying him… Any of those possibilities made him unbearable.

Kael’s handsome face was twisted with fury, his jawline cold and sharp. 

Corin Thorne! 

I need to meet this man! 

Sloane. I’m so sorry. You didn’t deserve this.” 

It’s okay. Mom. I’ll take it 

Familiar voices made Kael stop in his tracks, and he frowned and followed the sound. 

There, Sloane was huddled on the floor, small and thin, hugging herself–looking so vulnerable it made one’s heart ache. 

Lael’s gaze darkened. 

feather’s brows were furrowed in anger. She ground her teeth and said, “You gave Kael your whole heart, but he didn’t care about you at all! He left you alone in the street, and those two bastards took advantage of you! 

Now he’s turning it all around on you! He won’t even believe your words, and he wants to throw you in jail and ruin your career! Your agency will never let his go! 

Does Kael even have a heart? 

You’re too naive. From now on, snap out of it! That man isn’t worth it!” 

Mom. please stop. Someone might hear you–it’ll be bad for him.” Sloane’s eyes were filled with tears. She sniffled. “Mr. Voss must have his reasons. He 

rouldn’t be this ruthless…” 

leather looked at her in disappointment, so angry she could barely see straight. She pointed at Sloane, yelled something, and walked away. 

rom a distance, Kael watched Sloane with deep eyes–the girl wiped her tears, curling into herself, her face buried in her knees. 

he bruises on her arms, face, and calves were plain to see. 

he looked like a wounded little animal, hiding away to lick her wounds. 

ll of this was Corin’s doing–he’d ordered those two thugs to hurt her… 

ael’s eyes turned menacing, his hands clenched into fists at his sides, as he stared at her–no one could tell what he was thinking–before he finally walked way after about thirty seconds. 

learing the footsteps, Sloane looked up. She watched Kael leave–he didn’t even leave a single kind word… 

he felt like a discarded down, waiting eagerly for his pity… 

ler eyes turned red with grievance as she slowly looked away, leaned against the wall, and struggled to her feet to walk back to her ward. 

uddenly, someone lifted her off the ground, and she fell into a warm embrace. 

loane was startled at first, but when she smelled the familiar scent of the man, her heart skipped a beat. 

the wrapped her arms around him, burying her face in his chest, dinging tightly. 

Her sob was filled with endless grievance. 

‘Woo… Kael, I thought you didn’t want me anymore…” 

Kael’s gaze swept over her red eyes, his lips pressed into a thin line. He patted her shoulder in comfort, his voice cold. “If you’re not feeling well, don’t wander around. Stay in your ward.” 

Tears glistened in Sloane’s eyes as she snuggled against him like a cat. “But I wanted to see you… I just needed to see you… Kael, I’m not lying. Every word I said is true… Please don’t stop believing me… I’d never lie to you…”

After all, Sloane didn’t lie to me, and she was hurt because of Corin. 

Steane pressed her cheek to his shoulder and spoke softly. “Kael, my mom is getting old. Can you let her go? Ill take her place in jail–I’m begging you And about the agency… I’ll take all the blame. My mom can’t handle this all at once. I’m scared she’ll do something stupid. Please don’t announce anything online. okay* 

Sloane’s pale fingers twisted the hem of his shirt. She looked up at him, her throat tight with sobs, tears hanging from her lashes–it was impossible not to feel sorry for her. 

Kael sighed and cupped her face in his hands, wiping her tears, his touch gentle and tender. 

He thought for a moment, then said. “It’s my fault too–I didn’t think this through. You’re innocent in all this. Tomorrow, I’ll have Sam go to the police station. This matter ends here. 

“As for the contract termination–Nova already knows about it. There’s no going back. I’ll take care of your agency. No one will bully you anymore. In a few 

days, I’ll find you a new endorsement somewhere else.” 

Sloane’s my woman. How dare those fools at her agency bully her?

Lael stroked her back. His deep voice was incredibly reassuring. “It’s okay. I’ll handle Nova.” 

to anyone watching, the scene was tender–the man held the woman in his arms, comforting her, his tall, strong body shielding her as if she were a precious 

reasure. 

I was such a loving sight, enough to make others envious. 

Hurt Nova felt her eyes flush red, the stinging almost too much to bear.
