Chapter 559
After dinner, Liam returned to the hospital for his night shift.
In a daze, a figure caught his eye.
He froze mid-step, his gaze locking onto Aria and another woman as they entered the hospital.
Her serene face flashed through his mind.
A whirlwind of emotions twisted inside him, making his chest ache.
Liam clenched his phone, just as he was about to move when a man in a black suit walked in, his gaze locked intently on
Aria.
Liam thought, ‘Is she being followed?,
“This feels just like last time. Aria told me the bullet was meant for her.
‘Has Aria made that many enemies?”
Liam shook off his jumbled thoughts and followed after them.
Inside the hospital room, the caregiver was pouring water for Rebecca Gilen, Ella’s mother, when she saw Ella come in. With a warm smile, she immediately went over to greet her. “Ella, you’re here?”
Ella nodded gently and said, “Ma’am, I’ll stay at the hospital to look after my mom these next few days. You should go home and rest.”
The caregiver nodded repeatedly in agreement. Before leaving, she couldn’t help stealing a few more glances at Aria.
‘What a stunning young lady. I wonder if she’s seeing anyone,’ she thought.
The question lingered in her mind, but she didn’t dare ask-after all, it was clear this girl belonged to a different world.
The door clicked shut.

Rebecca struggled to sit up, and Ella immediately moved to support her. “Mom, take it slow,” she said gently.
Rebecca looked at Aria, her pale face full of gratitude. She said softly, “Are you Ms. Saxon? Ella talks about you all the time. Our whole family owes you so much…”
Rebecca had decided to give up treatment, not wanting to burden Ella. But then her daughter came up with a large sum of money for the surgery and even showed her the contract.
She’d assumed the “Ms. Saxon” Ella kept mentioning would be around her own age, never expecting the teacher to be as young as Ella.
Aria smiled gently. “Ella is exceptional-she’s helped me tremendously, so paying her is only fair.”
Rebecca’s eyes glistened as she gave her daughter’s hand a gentle squeeze. She had worried that accepting such a generous tutoring fee might put her daughter in an awkward position, but after meeting Aria, her worries finally melted away.
Aria didn’t linger. After a few brief words, she got up and left.
The moment she pushed open the hospital room door, she locked eyes with a pair of somber eyes.
Liam stood rigid by the doorway, his gaze fixed intently on her.

Aria didn’t spare him a glance, walking straight past him toward the elevator.
Liam hurried after her and said in a low voice, “You’re being followed. That guy trailed you all the way to the hospital.”
“None of your business,” Aria said coldly.
Liam caught up with her, his voice thick with emotion. “Aria, we were married once… I still wish you happiness.”
