The Heartbreak Prescription Chapter 923

Shaun walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window, trying to get himself under control.

Halsey glanced at him and saw that his hands were tucked into his pockets, like he was trying to hide something. His head was slightly lowered, and those sharp, handsome features still looked both refined and indulgent. Just looking at him made her face

flush with heat.

She quickly looked away.

Once Shaun had composed himself, he called out, “Come in.’

Martin stepped inside. “Mr. Lane, the meeting is about to begin. Mr. Bowman from Magnus Corporation has already arrived.”

Shaun nodded. “Alright, I’ll be there.”

Martin left.

Shaun walked over to Halsey. “Stay here and don’t go anywhere. If I come back and you’re gone, you’re dead. Got it?”

Halsey didn’t dare talk back. She simply nodded. “Got it.”

Then Shaun left.

Halsey could tell this meeting was a big deal, yet he still kissed her right before it.

She didn’t even understand how she had ended up in his office again-it all started because she refused to take the pill.

Her hand instinctively went to her flat belly, and a warm sweetness filled her heart.

She whispered softly, “Baby, that’s your daddy…”

The baby was still too small to respond.

Just then, there was another knock at the door. Martin walked in again. “Ms. Mallin, Mr. Lane asked me to bring you some

snacks.”

Two female staff members followed him in, placing a variety of sweet and sour candies on the coffee table.

Martin smiled. “See if you like any of these. Mr. Lane said you’ve been craving sour flavors lately.”

He even had snacks prepared for her. She had to admit that she was touched.

Halsey’s mouth was already watering at the sight of the snacks. She smiled and said, “Thank you, Martin.” “No need to thank me. These were all instructions from Mr. Lane. I haven’t seen you around here for a while.”

She and Shaun had broken up. Technically, they still were.

Halsey nodded. “Yeah.”

“Even though you were gone for a while, I had a feeling you’d be back,” Martin said.

Halsey blinked in surprise. “Why?”

Martin answered sincerely, “Because Mr. Lane clearly favors you.”

It was easy to fall for someone-because of their looks, intelligence, or wealth-but the rarest thing in the world was true favoritism.

“I’ll be outside,” Martin continued. “Just call me if you need anything.”

“Okay.”

After Martin left, Halsey sat back on the sofa and popped a sour candy into her mouth. The sour and sweet burst of flavor danced across her tongue.

She took out her sketchbook and began working on her designs.

By lunchtime, Shaun still hadn’t returned. Martin came in again, this time with food. He presented the spread, saying, “Our company chef made this especially for you. Let me know if it suits your taste.”

“Is Mr. Lane’s meeting not over yet?”

Martin shook his head. “Mr. Lane and Mr. Bowman went out for a business lunch. He’ll probably be back this afternoon.”

Halsey nodded. “Got it.”

It was obvious Shaun had a lot on his plate. He had been taking care of Madeline for the past few days, and now his work was piling up.

Halsey ate a little; today, her appetite was decent. She finished a few more sketches before she started to feel drowsy.

E

ver since getting pregnant, she had been extra sleepy all the time. Halsey lay down on the sofa, closed her eyes, and quickly drifted off into a peaceful nap.
