Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 788

Chapter 788: I want to help her

The doctor came to them with a nurse in tow, his expression grave. Denzel immediately stood up, stepping back to let him examine Juniper.

Once the examination was over, the doctor turned to Juniper. "Please, try not to take on any unnecessary stress. And make sure to visit a psychiatrist soon for a full consultation."

Denzel gave a firm nod, thanking him, while the nurse moved quickly to remove the IV drip from Juniper’s arm. She placed a tiny bandage over the site and handed over the discharge documents for Juniper to sign.

Throughout their return ride, there was heavy silence between them. He found Juniper had her gaze outside the window. He chose to stay quiet until they would reach her house.

Denzel helped her inside and straight to the bedroom, ensuring she was settled comfortably before he finally spoke.

"So, what exactly happened?" Denzel asked, pouring a glass of water and handing it to her. "The doctor was adamant about that psychiatrist consultation. What is that about?"

Juniper took the glass, and stared at the water.

"Seeing Cillian after so many months gave me a panic attack," Juniper replied. "Then he took me to the hospital. My adoptive father is sick and won’t make it; he wants to see me, and Cillian was here to fetch me. I refused, and things escalated. By then, you were there and saved me."

She paused, gazing at him with a confused expression. "Why did you come? How did you even find out where I was?"

"I called you repeatedly and you didn’t answer," Denzel explained, his voice still tight with the remnants of his worry. "I told you to call me as soon as you reached home, but you didn’t. I thought something had happened to you, so I decided to come here. When you weren’t home, I did some basic checks on the security footage and tracked the car."

He sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her. "You scared me, Juniper. I didn’t know if the people who attacked you with the silver knife had come back for more."

Juniper looked down at her hands. "I’m sorry. Everything just happened so fast once I walked through the door. I didn’t even have a chance to look at my phone. I promise I won’t bother you anymore."

Denzel looked at her. "I don’t think that will happen. You won’t be able to protect yourself, so you’ll need me," he affirmed.

"Denzel, why are you so good to me? It’s not like I’ve ever done anything for you," Juniper said, looking at him with a softened expression.

"You don’t help thinking the person you’re helping will give you something in return. There is a difference between help and favor," he affirmed. "Also, I am somehow associated with you, so I can’t just walk away from you without helping you."

"Thank you, Denzel. I mean it from the bottom of my heart," Juniper said, her voice trembling. "Honestly, I’ve never met anyone like you. You’re too good to me. I don’t deserve anyone’s kindness."

The heat that had been suppressed by the medication began to resurface, and with it came an intense emotional outburst. She began to weep, the memories of the palace and the family that had discarded her flooding back despite her best efforts to leave them behind.

Denzel watched her for a moment, his heart aching at her vulnerability. Realizing she needed space to process the shock, he quietly stepped out of the room.
