Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 278

“Shh, go back to sleep. I’ve got something to take care of.”

Harrison still needed to deal with the medical records. He’d meant to do it earlier, but Anastasia had insisted he stay with her, so he’d reluctantly put it off. Now, though, it was time.

As for sleep, he could go two nights without it and still be sharp. Missing half a night was nothing.

But Anastasia was not having it. After all the trouble she’d gone through to light the scented candles, if he didn’t sleep, wouldn’t all her effort go to waste?

She clung to him even more tightly, her voice soft and wheedling. “No, stay with me a little longer, please? Can’t you let Logan handle it?”

Harrison could never resist her when she acted like this. With a resigned sigh, he lay back down, letting her wrap herself around him like an octopus, as if she was afraid he’d vanish the moment she let go. The indulgence and helplessness in his dark eyes said it all.

Fine. Let Logan take care of it. The outcome would be the same.

He didn’t care about Alice’s fate. Now that the kidnappers had lost their leverage, silencing them and cleaning up the leaked records would be no trouble at all.

Twenty minutes later.

Anastasia cracked one eye open.

She was sprawled across Harrison’s chest, and she whispered, “Honey?”

Just to be sure, she poked his handsome, chiseled face.

Normally, with Harrison’s keen senses, he would’ve noticed the moment she moved. But this time, nothing—no reaction at all.

Success!

Relieved, Anastasia slipped out of bed, rushed to get dressed, and hurried downstairs.

Logan was already waiting for her, pacing anxiously. The moment he saw her, he asked, “Where’s Mr. Lancaster? He didn’t notice, did he?”

“Don’t worry, he won’t find out. Let’s go!”

Anastasia was confident in her blend of sleep-inducing aromatics.

Two hours later.

Outskirts of the city.

“Alice, run!”

Thomas was covered in blood, barely holding onto consciousness as he shoved Alice forward.

He glanced back. For some reason, the kidnappers had suddenly turned back instead of chasing after them.
