Chapter 550

Author: Where is Spring
The room fell silent.

Maria looked at Richard’s bruised face and bandaged skin. For a moment, it was difficult for her to breathe. She knew her words had struck a nerve and hurt him badly, but she couldn't stop herself.

From the very beginning, Richard had been pushing in on her.

She hated it. It was as if her real thoughts and feelings had never mattered enough to be respected.

Back when they were married, there had been problems at every turn. The marriage certificate had been fake. He ha

  • A Regret too Late   Chapter 554

    Maria's thoughts were in chaos.After Willow pressed her repeatedly, she finally had no choice but to tell her brother about Richard's illness. When Willow heard everything, he stood there for a long time, unable to gather himself.He had never imagined something like this would occur. His hand curled into a fist. After a while, he asked with a hint of hesitation, "So you've been in a bad mood all this time because you were afraid that after he went to fight Melvin, his condition would get worse and make him lose his sight?"Maria nodded. She knew this was not something she could control. Even so, she kept worrying and could not calm herself down. Every time she thought about Richard being sick now… About the chances that he might never recover… About him going blind or even dead… Her heart started to race for no reason at all.She couldn't stand the thought of something happening to her son's father. The more she thought about it, the more restless she felt.Seeing how worr

    "Well... I didn't think there was any need to tell you. I never asked Richard to attack anyone. He insisted on doing it himself. He's doing this just to try to win me back. Why should I bother with him?" Maria said.Her tone was faint and lazy, as if Richard's actions neither moved her nor warmed her in the slightest.Willow watched her for a few seconds, then looked away with a faint, knowing smile. "For some reason, I feel like you're nowhere near as calm on the inside as you look on the surface."Maria blinked. "Really? I feel completely calm.""Something's off." Willow waved his hand and gave her a meaningful look. "Forget it, I don't feel like lecturing you. Just remember this. No matter what happens, I'll always have your back. If anyone hurts you, just tell me about it. I'll take care of it.""Okay. I know you're the one who cares about me the most," Maria said. She forced a smile, but the weight on her mind still showed.After that, Willow no longer felt like joking with

    Maria sat outside the hospital ward for a long time. She didn't go back into Richard's ward. Instead, she finally braced herself. She stood up from the bench and walked to Melvin's ward.Melvin had been beaten badly. His face was bruised, and his arm was in a cast. He looked pitiful and utterly miserable. When he saw Maria walk in, a sinister smile appeared on his face. "You are really quite the woman. You stopped Trent from hitting me, then turned around and ratted me out to Richard in private so he'd come for me instead. With a scheming mind like yours, no wonder Eleanor never stood a chance against you when it comes to men."Maria ignored his sarcasm and walked up to his bedside, unhurried. "I came here today to tell you one thing."Melvin blinked, hesitating. "What do you want to tell me?""No matter what tricks you and Eleanor are planning, come at me from now on. Leave everyone else out of it. You were right about one thing. Richard only came after you because I pushed

    Richard pressed his lips, a strange glint flickering in his eyes. After a long silence, he finally looked up and met Maria's eyes. "If I can change, will you still be willing to talk to me?"Maria raised her eyebrow. "Maybe I will, maybe I won't. Regardless, I don't want to talk to you at all right now."When she finished, she left without looking back, leaving Richard sitting there alone with a deeply conflicted expression.There were faint sounds outside the door after a while, and Trent walked in. He wasn't sure what to say for a moment when he saw Richard. He clearly already knew what Maria had said. "Hurts, doesn't it?"Richard lowered his gaze and nodded slowly.Trent slipped his hands into his pockets and hesitated before saying, "I don't really know what to say. All I can tell you is this isn't Maria's fault. It's yours. You shouldn't have run off to fight Melvin on your own without a word. She threw those harsh words at you because she was worried about you. Don't take

It was as if her real thoughts and feelings had never mattered enough to be respected.Back when they were married, there had been problems at every turn. The marriage certificate had been fake. He had never told her the truth and just kept hiding everything. He was convinced that if he dragged things out long enough, they would one day fix it.In the end, she had almost died.Later, when she had barely clawed her way back to life, he tried to win her over with what he thought were grand, touching gestures. He didn't care about his own life and dragged other people into the mess.And now, he still charged off into a fight even when he was going to go blind soon. He never thought about how

    Maria turned around and looked straight at Willow before saying quietly, "Will, I have to go right now. I really do."Willow froze, not expecting her to be so determined. Before he could say anything, Maria had already walked out without looking back.The whole time she drove to the hospital, she was anxious.When she arrived, she saw Trent in the corridor talking to a doctor. Her heart clenched, and she hurried over. "How is he? How is Richard right now?"Both the doctor and Trent were startled by how anxious she was.The doctor quickly tried to reassure her. "It's nothing serious, Ms. Brooks. Don't get so worked up. It's only a split lip, and the injury is superficial. People get bumps and bruises when they fight, and there's no further internal injury. He'll be completely fine in a couple of days."Maria was shocked and looked at Trent, silently asking what exactly happened with her eyes.Trent frowned, his gaze flickering for a moment. Then, he sighed. "Sorry, this is on me.
