Chapter 64

• Lewis stood by the window of his mother's room, gazing out as Lauren slept peacefully. He pulled out his phone to call his assistant about taking a few days' leave, but his eyes widened as he saw the screen. Three missed calls from Lily. He had completely forgotten to call her back. With a sense of urgency, he quickly dialed her number. After a few rings, a familiar voice picked up—Mia, Lily's best friend.
• "Hello?" Mia's voice was tinged with worry.
• "Lily?" Lewis asked, his tone direct.
