Filed To Story: Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband Book (Cora & Byron)
“Send a few more people around her, and find someone to watch over Mrs. Flora Lane.”
That time he went with Cora to Moonware Games’s team building gathering, and the fact that he fervently supported Cora at the Calligraphy Association’s event created quite a stir, and Mark must have heard the news.
“You need to move faster in Kinton.”
At first glance, Byron’s expression was the same as usual, but when Carter looked carefully, he could find a thin layer of hostility.
Since Byron couldn’t hide from what was coming, all he could do was to roll with the punches.
After lunch, Byron took the box of snacks to visit Flora.
Chose this time for a visit because Cora would be there to accompany Flora at about the same time, and the two could meet each other.
It was the same today. Cora was peeling an apple for Flora in her ward when he arrived.
“Byron, it’s good that you come. You don’t need to bring me something every time.”
Flora greeted him very warmly.
“They don’t cost much. I thought you would like them, so I brought them here. Today is a pineapple shortcake. Try and see if you like it.”
Flora ate one.
“It’s delicious, full of fruity flavor.”
When the two were chatting about snacks, Cora glanced at Byron and then continued to calmly peel the apple for Flora.
After peeling the apple for Flora, she peeled another one and handed it to him.
Byron’s expression showed a little surprise.
Cora had been ignoring him recently, and today she suddenly peeled an apple for him. Was she planning to start again?
He took the apple and didn’t eat it. He just looked at Cora with a half-smile, which turned her face red hot.
“If you don’t want to eat it, give it back to me.”
“Eat. Why wouldn’t I?”
In front of Cora, he took a bite of the apple and chewed it crunchy.
And he fixed his eyes on Cora all this time. The slightly scorching gaze made Cora wonder if he thought that apple was her…
But just as the two of them were interacting with each other, Byron’s cell phone rang suddenly.
After he looked at the caller ID, he frowned slightly.
For some reason, his expression gave Cora an inexplicable bad feeling…
After Byron answered the phone, the person on the phone said something, then Byron replied immediately,
“I’ll be there right away.”
Soon he hung up the phone and stuffed the apple into Cora’s hand.
“It seems that this apple can’t be eaten for now.”
Cora didn’t care about these small details but asked Byron,
“Is something wrong?”
“Well, something happened.”
But he didn’t say what happened clearly. He just said goodbye to Flora quickly and then left in a hurry.
Cora felt restless all afternoon. She didn’t know whether it was because Byron left so hurriedly.
For this reason, she added Byron as her friend on WhatsApp and asked him what happened.
But what was puzzling was that Byron, who had been responsive to her during this period, seemed to have disappeared from the world today, and the messages she sent were not replied to.
This feeling was similar to that on the first day of the new year. Cora once wondered if he was planning to go back and inherit his tens of billions of property, so he was going to continue to leave her alone.
But just as various thoughts popped up, Sally brought amazing news.
“Cora, have you heard that?”
Sally had just returned from the andrology department and approached Cora when Cora was examining the abdominal cavity of a patient with acute gastroenteritis.
“What?”
“Eason’s grandfather is critically ill.”
Cora was dumbfounded.
Wasn’t Eason’s grandfather Byron’s father?
No wonder Byron left in such a hurry today and didn’t even say a few more words to her.
Sally didn’t notice Cora was being strange and continued talking about the first-hand information she had collected.
“I just heard those who care much about the wealthy people in New York say Old Mr. Hansen’s critical illness will definitely change the future structure of the Hansen family. It is said that Mr. Hansen will bear the brunt. Once his dad died, he might be unable to take over the Hansen family.
The Patton family would also be seriously impacted. I heard that in the Hansen family, only Old Mr.Hansen treats them as their family, so the Patton family has benefited from the Hansen Group over the years. If there is something wrong with Old Mr. Hansen, the Patton family will not be as wealthy as before.
I think Eason’s family deserves that. They were so arrogant before, and now that once Old Mr. Hansen died, their family will become the one that is despised by others…”
Sally was in a good mood to share her opinion with Cora, but she didn’t know that Cora’s brain could no longer receive any information after hearing about Osborn’s accident.
At this moment, she only had one thought. That was to make sure whether Byron was okay.
“Sally, help me take care of this patient. I’ll go upstairs to take a look.”
Osborn had been recuperating in the First Hospital before, which was also the closest hospital to the
Hansen Mansion. Cora deduced that they should be upstairs now.
“Why do you go upstairs? Visit Eason’s grandfather? Isn’t it because you still loved him? If so, I will look down on you.”
Sally cursed Eason’s family before because Eason cheated on Cora.
Now that the curse finally took effect, Cora began to worry about their family again. Sally was naturally worried that she would be involved again.
And the most important thing was that the characters of Eason’s family members were all very bad.
Even if Cora helped them in a critical moment, they would definitely not be grateful after they got through the difficulties.
So Sally was very worried that Cora was really in love.
But Cora said,
“Don’t think too much.”
Then, she left without looking back.
What else could Sally do? Nothing except helping Cora with her patients.

When Cora rushed to area A of the emergency room, she saw many people at the gate.
Lydia cried so loudly, looking like she was about to faint, and was supported by Eason.
In addition, many people were waiting there.
Byron was in the innermost position among those people, with his back against the wall and his eyes closed, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.
Although Byron hid his emotions well, Cora could still sense his depression and worry.
She was not sure whether she should step forward.
But at this moment, Eason suddenly noticed her.
“Cora?”
As soon as Eason made a sound, almost everyone at the emergency room door looked at her.
Byron also suddenly opened his eyes and looked at her, and their eyes suddenly met…
“Cora, why are you here?”
Eason was gloomy throughout the afternoon, thinking of the impacts of Osborn’s critical illness and the future of the Patton family.
But the appearance of Cora undoubtedly lightened his gloomy mood.
He let go of Lydia almost immediately, regardless of whether Lydia would fall and wanted to walk towards Cora.
But someone passed him and headed towards Cora before him.
When Eason saw who that person was, his whole body froze.
It was Byron, his uncle.
After Cora broke up with him, she was in a relationship with his uncle.
He had been trying to avoid this fact, but the reality seemed to refuse to let him go.
“What’s the matter with this bitch? Want attention at such a moment?”
When Lydia saw Cora, she immediately remembered the pain of being swindled of seven thousand ounces of gold bars by her. She felt at ease when she heard Byron and bitch didn’t have contact.
Now that Cora had reappeared, so it was hard for her not to imagine that Cora was taking the opportunity to return to Byron’s side.
And Mark, who was sitting on the bench in the aisle, also heard Lydia’s complaint. He glanced over the back of Byron, running towards Cora, and then narrowed his eyes slightly.
Meanwhile, Byron had already walked in front of Cora.
“Why are you here?”
His voice was hoarse and sounded exhausted.
“I heard about Osborn, so I come here.”
Cora looked at his face and then his big palm.
She wanted to hold Byron’s hand and ask if he was okay.
But she wasn’t sure if Byron still wanted to be with her as firmly as before, so firmly that he would not hesitate to disclose his relationship with her in front of his family.
But she didn’t expect Byron to help her do what she hesitated.
