The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 321

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash ` 321

Chapter 321 

Adrian watched the colorful play of emotions on her face, the 

amusement in his eyes deepening. 

He gave her fingers a gentle squeeze, then sat up straight again 

and started the car smoothly. 

“Settle in. We’re going home.” 

His voice was still gentle, but it now held a reassuring, steady 

strength. 

The car merged back into traffic, but the atmosphere inside had 

quietly shifted. 

The unnerving awkwardness and silence were replaced by a 

warm, intimate understanding. 

Rebecca no longer looked out the window, instead stealing 

glances at Adrian’s profile as he focused on driving. 

Her heart was still beating fast. 

The car drove into the underground garage and came to a stop.

After they got out of the car, Adrian kept holding Rebecca’s hand, making small talk as if to ease her nervousness. 

In fact, Rebecca was still nervous. 

When she got upstairs, she realized she had left her phone in Adrian’s car. 

“Huh?” 

She froze for a moment, stopped, and rummaged through her 

small purse again. “I think my phone is missing.” 

Adrian turned his head to look at her. “Did you leave it in the 

‘Probably…” 

Rebecca thought back. Most likely, she had been so focused on 

talking to him when she got out that she’d left it on the 

passenger seat without thinking. 

“Tsk, my memory.” 

Adrian watched her frown slightly, a helpless yet fond smile on his face. He reached out and ruffled the top of her hair. “It’s 

okay, I’ll go down and get it. You rest for a bit.”

“Okay.” 

The apartment was quiet, with only her inside. 

She changed her shoes, walked to the living room to pour a glass of water, and sipped it slowly. Her thoughts drifted to 

what she needed to talk to Adrian about. 

About Leo, about that unexpected box of old things. 

She had to figure out the right way to bring it up–to be clear 

without making it seem like she was too hung up on the past 

and causing Adrian to misunderstand. 

As she was pondering, the doorbell rang with a “ding–dong.” 

Rebecca was taken aback and instinctively glanced at the wall 

clock. 

That was fast. 

Adrian had only been gone for less than two minutes, right? 

Even if the elevator was quick, a round trip couldn’t be that fast. 

“Coming, coming!” 

She thought Adrian had forgotten his keys or something, so she

called out as she put down her water glass and hurried to the 

entryway. 

She peeked through the peephole. The hallway was brightly lit, 

but the person standing outside wasn’t Adrian. 

It was a strange woman she had never seen before. 

The woman wore an expensive custom–made suit, her makeup 

was flawless, and her competent demeanor carried a hint of 

unapproachable, cold pride. 

She stood there, not in a hurry, but with a kind of scrutinizing 

patience. 

Rebecca’s heart skipped a beat, and confusion instantly 

flooded her mind. 

Who? 

Wrong door? 

She hesitated for a moment before opening the door, but only a 

crack, looking warily at the woman outside. “Hello, who are you looking for?” 

The woman outside didn’t seem surprised to see Rebecca.

Her gaze swept over Rebecca quickly and sharply, from her 

house slippers to her casually tied–up hair. A faint, almost 

imperceptible flicker of disdain crossed her eyes, but it was 

quickly masked by a perfectly polite smile. 

“Excuse me, is this Professor Adrian’s home?” 

The woman’s voice was also pleasant, her enunciation perfect, 

carrying a well–trained elegance. 

Rebecca’s confusion deepened. She nodded. “Yes, and you 

are?” 

The woman smiled faintly. “Hello, my last name is Vance. 

Rosalind. 

I’m an… old friend of Adrian’s.” 

Rosalind? 

Rebecca had no memory of that name, but the woman had 

accurately stated Adrian’s name and title. 

Her heart sank a little, and a bad feeling quietly surfaced. 

A pretty woman shows up in front of your boyfriend late at night, and her tone is so intimate and flirty. Could that possibly

be a good sign? 

“He’s not here right now.” 

Rebecca maintained a basic level of politeness, but her tone 

became a little colder. 

“He just went downstairs to get something, he’ll be back soon. 

What do you need him for? 

“Maybe I can pass on a message.” 

The smile on Rosalind’s face didn’t change, but her eyes 

seemed to deepen. She looked at Rebecca, her tone full of 

meaning: 

“It’s something rather personal, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be convenient to pass it on. It’s alright, I can wait for him.” 

Her gaze went past Rebecca, as if trying to look inside the house, her posture carrying a subtle assertiveness and entitlement, as if she were the one who should be standing here waiting for the master to return. 

Rebecca’s hand on the doorknob tightened slightly. 

After hesitating for a couple of seconds, Rebecca stepped
