Chapter 193: Chapter 193: The Taste That Makes One Unable to Walk the Path

Group leader of the third research team at Clearview University.

Representing Horizon Group in cooperation with the Clearview University research team.

And that thick stack of certificates... everything points to the extraordinary identity of Serena Summers.

Lucas Shaw’s dark eyes were slightly lowered, his thumb gently caressing her cheek with utmost tenderness, as if he feared disturbing the person in her dreams.

What else about you don’t I know?

Holding Serena Summers in one arm, Lucas Shaw continuously scrolled down the screen with his other hand, speed-reading the comments on his phone.

When he saw a certain comment, his gaze abruptly halted.

"Doesn’t anyone notice the lady’s peerless beauty? So talented and gorgeous, she struck right at my heart."

"Boohoo, the lady is so beautiful it makes me cry, do you still need a husband? I think I could boohoo..."

Husband?

Ha!

I am her husband!

Lucas Shaw scoffed coldly, typing on his phone screen with one hand and pressing send.

Shaw Group’s Lucas Shaw: "My wife, don’t even think about it."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and upon seeing Lucas Shaw’s account name, they couldn’t help but pause, then, as if possessed, they clicked on his avatar and discovered with surprise...

This is actually the legitimate husband!

"This must be jealousy, right? I’m ’shipping’ this for real!"

"President Shaw’s words are so domineering, I love it!"

"Boohoo... I’ve been noticed by President Shaw! I’m so happy! President Shaw, I used to be a fan of your looks, but now I’ve fallen for someone else, your wife is so beautiful!"

"I wonder if the sisters still remember that someone used to attack Serena Summers, saying she’s not good enough for President Shaw! Now I’m asking... who is really not good enough for whom?"

"Both of them stand side by side like gods, so perfect for each other! I’m willing to bring the civil affairs office to you so you can get married on the spot, oh, I forgot, you’re already married... then lock it down and never part for a lifetime!"

While Lucas Shaw maintained his expressionless facade, showing no discernible emotion, he felt secretly relieved inside.

Relieved that he acted decisively and abducted her home early.

The little guy really attracts when her charm radiates.

There are so many comments online, all praising Serena Summers.

There are even those who call her wife!

So what? The only one who can truly have her is him alone.

As for those on the internet, they can only watch.

Serena Summers was so tired, after a busy day, she fell asleep, utterly exhausted.

Asleep, she suddenly felt breathless and nearly suffocated; she abruptly opened her eyes, only to meet a pair of dark, deep eyes.

Those profound phoenix eyes were filled with intense desire, stupefying her for a moment, unable to tell if it was reality or a dream.

Lucas Shaw noticed Serena Summers waking up and slowly let go of her lips, his face carrying the embarrassment of being caught.

"What are you doing?"

"Kissing you," Lucas Shaw said with a low, husky voice thick with desire.

His clothes had been ripped open at some point, and the top two buttons of the shirt were undone, revealing a delicate collarbone and a sensual chest.

Serena Summers eyes dropped to his chest, as if burned, and quickly averted her gaze.

Although they had been married for so long, they hadn’t yet consummated their relationship.

Before, it was because of Lucas Shaw’s poor health, and he was constantly taking medicinal baths.

Now, the poison in her body has not been completely cleared, and she’s worried that if she accidentally becomes pregnant, the poison could be transferred to the child.

Even as a doctor, Serena Summers couldn’t fully guarantee that such an incident wouldn’t occur.

Lucas Shaw had always been very restrained, as if he had never lost control before.

There had been a few times, but very few.

Serena Summers silently added in her heart.

Lucas Shaw was taken aback by the question, then coughed lightly and slowly lowered his eyes, not daring to look into Serena Summers’ eyes.

"Did I wake you? Sorry." He just couldn’t hold back completely.

For the past twenty-some years, due to the prediction that he wouldn’t live past twenty-five, Lucas Shaw had been too cautious to lightly engage in any romance.

Moreover, he had absolutely no interest in other women.

So, he had never even thought about that sort of thing.

But as Serena Summers matured, he began unsatisfied with just holding her in sleep.

He wanted to kiss her; he wanted to lie under the covers with her, not thinking about anything else, with only each other in their eyes and bodies.

Serena Summers, still groggy, hadn’t completely awoken from her dream. She yawned, slowly shook her head, "It’s all right, is it already dawn? I should get up."

"Sleep a little longer, you only slept for three hours last night."

When they got back to the hotel, it was already four in the morning, the roads here were extremely secluded, and also quite rugged.

Fortunately, the car performed well, and the drive did not wake Serena Summers.

The fatigue on Serena Summers’ face had not yet faded, and Lucas Shaw extended his hand, caressing her fair and delicate cheek with a tender touch, then leaned in to kiss her lips again.

Serena Summers shook her head, pushed Lucas Shaw’s shoulder, and sat up from the bed, "I can’t sleep any longer, I have to go to the hospital today!"

There are many patients waiting in the hospital.

Additionally, some remote little mountain villages have been struck by severe disasters, and those people cannot come to the hospital, so doctors have to be sent there.

Serena Summers had already arranged for supplies to be sent yesterday.

The torrential rain had stopped, but many houses had collapsed. Drainage capacity here isn’t very good, and there was still a layer of water on the road, requiring wading through the water to drive.

Lucas Shaw had no choice but to get up from the bed following Serena Summers, albeit with a displeased expression.

What did the life and death of those people have to do with them?

Lucas Shaw was heartbroken for Serena Summers and didn’t want her to work so hard, but he knew well that she wouldn’t ignore those patients.

She had always been this way, kind and naive, no matter how much malice others showed her.

As long as it didn’t cross her bottom line, she didn’t mind.

Like the patients in the hospital yesterday, who had continuously doubted her medical skills and even made some mocking comments.

Yet, Serena Summers still adhered to the ethics of a medical practitioner, treating each one of them.

After a quick wash, Serena Summers changed into clothes suitable for moving around, slipped into a pair of black canvas shoes, and stepped out of the restroom.

Lucas Shaw had already changed his clothes.

In order to match Serena Summers a bit, he specially exchanged his suit for a simple and low-key casual outfit.

The man’s figure was tall and slender, his features handsome. After changing into casual clothes, the imposing and cold aura that usually surrounded him dissipated significantly, no longer as distant as before.

Looking at Lucas Shaw’s attire, Serena Summers’ eyes couldn’t help but brighten, "I didn’t expect you could have a different charm in this outfit!"

"Hm? What kind of charm?"

Serena Summers tilted her head to think, her gaze resting on the man’s chest for a moment, as if wanting to peer through the casual clothes to the clearly defined abs and attractive physique beneath.

"The kind that makes one unable to move on."
