Mason Nightshade didn’t expose her poor lie; he just narrowed his eyes and coldly warned, "If Balthazar Shaw finds out about this, you know the consequences."
Jovana Shaw was stunned, feeling a chill creeping up her spine, making her scalp tingle, "No, no, I won’t tell Dad."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mason Nightshade closed the door.
Jovana Shaw stood dumbfounded in front of the door, unable to react. Had she been neglected and ignored? No one had ever ignored her before, but recently, anything involving Aurelia Shaw made her feel dissatisfied.
Including the last ti when Aurelia locked her in the cetery.
A thick hatred emanated from Jovana Shaw’s heart.

The next day.
Aurelia received a call from Amanda Fuller. Because her brother had returned to the country, Amanda hadn’t visited her for several days.
"Aurelia, have you checked Weibo?" Amanda Fuller asked.
Upon hearing this, Aurelia had a vague suspicion. After all, she was quite prone to attracting negativity. She asked weakly, "Is there another scandal about ?"
"This ti it’s not sothing bad," Amanda Fuller said. "Soone exposed your hospitalization. Didn’t Mason Nightshade do a good job of blocking this news? How could soone still leak it? Although it won’t affect you much, if the public speculates recklessly, it’ll still be bad. I’m also worried reporters might co to the hospital to corner you."
Hearing this, Aurelia was taken aback. At that mont, she sat on a bench in the hospital yard, with many people walking by. Her gaze swept over the crowd, locking onto two people approaching her.
Reporters are most adept at disguise, but having dealt with them for years, she’s also adept at seeing through their disguises.
These two people were clearly neither patients nor patient’s family.
Aurelia suddenly had a bad premonition. Her abdon still throbbed with pain, the mory of being stabbed a few days ago fresh in her mind.
She stood up and walked towards the ward, hurrying as she felt for the small knife at her leg.
"Hey! You..." A man’s rough voice ca, followed by the sound of pursuing footsteps growing closer...
Aurelia quickened her pace, not noticing what was ahead, and ran into a solid chest—warm, broad, exuding the calming scent of lemon.
Seeing Mason Nightshade, Aurelia breathed a sigh of relief.
"What’s wrong?" Mason Nightshade’s hand gently caressed Aurelia’s back, patting twice, his hawk-like sharp gaze sweeping over the two people.
Their faces changed, and in a panic, they turned and left!
Mason Nightshade gave Gustavo Yates a look, "Go after them and see."
"Yes, boss."
Mason Nightshade then looked down at her, who had unintentionally run into his embrace, resembling a little rabbit, his deep voice unintentionally carrying a hint of amusent, "It’s okay now, Aurelia."
Aurelia’s body stiffened and quickly backed out from Mason Nightshade’s embrace, looking behind.
"They’ve already left." Mason Nightshade understood her thoughts, "Were they reporters?" He had seen the news of Aurelia’s hospitalization being published online.
"Probably," Aurelia said.
"I’ll have people stationed at the hospital entrance from now on; I won’t let them disturb you again," Mason Nightshade said.
He knew she lacked a sense of security, so he did everything within his power to provide it for her.
Mason Nightshade escorted Aurelia back to her ward. On the way out, he saw Gustavo Yates had returned.
"Those people were reporters from Donghua Daily, coming over to interview the Young Madam," Gustavo Yates said.
