The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Nathan stormed outside, dragging Landon along. Seeing this, Sabrina burst into tears, and Ryan quickly stepped in.

"You're scaring her!" Ryan snapped.

Before Nathan could respond, Landon had already scooped Sabrina into his arms.

"She needs some rest," Landon said, heading for the door. "We'll be back."

It hurt Nathan to see his sister seeking comfort from a stranger. He was about to lose it, while Ryan just closed his eyes in frustration.

"Get it together," Ryan said. "We need to focus on Sabrina's safety. Find us a good spot - we need a proper base here."

Nathan nodded. The Lewis family had never set up a branch in Novaria before. Ryan had already opened one in Skycrest and even bought an office building.

"Why not convert your building?" Nathan suggested. "We could add a pool and restaurant on the top floor."

Ryan rolled his eyes. "This is your area of expertise. I'm leaving it to you!"

Nathan was thrilled to have something to do.

Away from the tension, Sabrina's playful side came out. "Hide me somewhere Ryan can't find me!" she pleaded with Landon.

He chuckled, tapping her nose. "Used to play hide-and-seek with your brothers?" Sabrina nodded, laughing at the memory. "Actually, no matter how far I ran, I never got out of the castle grounds. You know, our castle covers dozens of acres. My parents even built a small town for me to explore. The farthest I ever got was to the town to get some treats!"

Sabrina was the beloved daughter of the Lewis family, the only girl among the siblings, adored by everyone for her kindness and charm.

To Landon, Sabrina was a precious gift, but he also felt a heavy responsibility.

Landon said, "Sabrina, being with me might be tough."

Sabrina responded, "No way, I love being with you. Anywhere is fine. Landon, I'm craving the cafeteria food!"

Sabrina didn't care about Landon's circumstances. At her age, happiness was all that mattered.

Thinking of this, Landon smiled and took her back to the SWAT team base. As soon as they arrived, Sabrina was surrounded by people.

"Sabrina, you're back! We missed you so much!"

"Sabrina, Calliope from the cafeteria has been talking about you for ages. Let me treat you to something delicious today!"

"Me too, me too!"

The crowd was overwhelming, and it seemed like they might swallow Sabrina whole. Landon couldn't stand it and quickly dispersed them.

"Don't you all have training? If you don't get back to it, you'll be running ten miles each!"

At the mention of punishment, everyone scattered. Sabrina wasn't upset; she felt a warm sense of familiarity.

"I have a place, just renovated. You can stay there," Landon offered.noveldrama

Sabrina shook her head. "No need, I'm fine in the dorms."

Landon said, "Showering is inconvenient. You're a girl, and there are more men here. My place has a kitchen, and you can cook for yourself."Sabrina looked at Landon with wide, innocent eyes. "But Landon, I don't know how to cook."

Landon sighed and took her to his place. The apartment was on the fourth floor, not very big but cozy, with fabric sofas, cream-colored walls, and a master bedroom filled with stuffed animals and a princess bed. Sabrina felt like she had stepped into a fairy tale.

"This place is amazing!" Sabrina exclaimed.

Seeing Sabrina happily hugging the stuffed animals, Landon felt relieved. As long as she was happy.

"There are clothes here too. Landon, are these mine?" Sabrina asked.

"Of course. This is your home now. You'll live here from now on. Oh, and Calliope from the cafeteria lives on the first floor!" Landon replied.

Sabrina was thrilled. "That's great! I love it here!"

With Sabrina settled, Landon felt a weight lift off his shoulders. He left her to rest and

headed to his office. Just as he sat down, the gatekeeper called.

"Mr. Wells, there's a Mr. Ryan Lewis here to see you."

"Let him in and give him directions," Landon instructed.

Landon had expected Ryan to come. Sabrina's brothers wouldn't easily leave her with

him. If he were in their shoes, he'd feel the same way.

Five minutes later, Ryan stormed into Landon's office.

"Landon, I need an explanation!" Ryan demanded.

Landon didn't say a word. He turned on the TV and played surveillance footage from his phone.

"This is footage of Sabrina's commute to and from school recently. I noticed a few people in these videos. Some are Lewis family bodyguards, some are my men, but there are two I can't identify," Landon explained.

He zoomed in on the screen, revealing two bearded men who were clearly not from Novaria. "I know Sabrina's parents work as Doctors Without Borders in Emberlyn. I don't know their identities, and I can't determine these two men's intentions yet. But Sabrina is in real danger. Bringing her here is the safest option I could think of." Ryan watched the video several times, took pictures of the two men, and sent them out. Soon, he got a response. Seeing the men's backgrounds, Ryan frowned. "They're from a terrorist organization. They're targeting Sabrina for the Lewis family's medical resources! I'll handle this quickly. Sabrina will stay with you for now. I've bought a building here, and once it's renovated, she'll move in. But Mr. Wells, remember, Sabrina is only seventeen. You have a long road ahead," Ryan warned. Landon nodded. He knew that well. This was the best outcome he could hope for. "I'll work hard to be someone Sabrina can rely on. We won't get engaged until she's twenty. How things develop will be up to Sabrina. I won't object," Landon assured. "Keep your word, Landon. I'll trust you for now," Ryan replied. Meanwhile, Sabrina was taking pictures with her phone, eager to share her joy with Cleo. But she quickly realized there seemed to be an issue with the network.
