The atmosphere in the VIP ward was a strange mix of clinical coldness and warm, scheming tension.
Jessica couldn't wait to hear what Lucas had planned next to completely destroy Evie. Moreover, whatever the plot was, she could tell it would be a brilliant one because Lucas had deliberately left her hanging in absolute anticipation for the past few minutes.
Lucas thoroughly enjoyed watching her anxiety over getting a response from him, silently savoring the thick tension that had been hanging in the air.
Feeling completely frustrated by Lucas's intentional delay in revealing his next step in Evie's downfall, Jessica snapped impatiently,
"Speak...!"
Lucas abruptly broke his silence, speaking in a soft, soothing tone. "Fine, just calm down. I am going to tell you what my next plan is all about."
