Chapter 252

Author: Little Happiness
Isaac looked at me momentarily and then spoke to the police officer beside him. "Mr. Foley, thank you."

Toby Foley immediately put on a friendly smile and politely said, "Ms. York, Mr. Shore has already taken care of your bail. You can leave now. There was a misunderstanding, and I'm sorry for the trouble you've been through."

I pressed my fingertips against the cracks in the wall, trying to stand. My legs had gone completely numb, and even the slightest movement made my whole body wobble. I s

  • Divorce Finally Made Him Break   Chapter 545

    News of my mother's passing spread quickly through the media. The already explosive public discourse ignited anew."Timothy is heartless! He finally got Josie's mother killed!""Yasmin and her family are the real culprits! The equipment designers are her dad and brother. Why didn't they expose the fraud earlier? Why now? They did this on purpose!""The father and son from the Beech family are a disgrace to the industry! And that bitch Yasmin is even worse! That whole family deserves to be nailed to the pillar of shame!"Online abuse flooded Timothy and the Beech family. Yasmin was nearly drowned in the storm of hatred.The incident where her father had been splashed with filth at the hospital resurfaced, and the comment sections were filled with "serves them right" and "retribution".At that moment, Timothy issued a statement via the official Grant Corporation account.He didn't defend himself. He simply wrote, "The passing of my mother-in-law, Winona Tucker, fills me with deep

    Harriett dodged the blows and screamed, "Timothy, are you really just going to watch me get beaten and not say a single word?"Timothy acted as if he hadn't heard her. He stood frozen, his eyes fixed on the tightly shut ward door.The hallway echoed with Harriett's cries and the dull thud of canes striking her.Finally, unable to take it anymore, she scrambled away in a panic. The chaos in the corridor finally came to an end.After what felt like forever, the ward door opened, and Reid stepped out.His face held no extra emotion, only the solemn gravity of a doctor.Everyone rushed toward him at once. My steps wobbled. I knew hope was slim, yet I couldn't extinguish the fragile flicker burning inside me."Professor Shore, my mother..." My voice was as dry as sandpaper, and the words caught in my throat before I could finish speaking.Reid's gaze swept across the crowd and finally landed on Isaac. "Isaac, come in for a moment."Isaac frowned slightly, confusion flashing in his

    Timothy had rushed here with everything he had, hoping to stop all of this.But the way I looked at him held nothing but piercing hatred, as if every tragedy had been caused by his own hands.His gaze drifted toward the tightly shut ward door, and his heart felt as though it had been torn in half.He didn't even know what outcome he wanted anymore.If Reid really managed to save my mother, I would be endlessly grateful to Isaac. The distance between Timothy and me would only grow wider. But if my mother truly passed away, I would never forgive him for the rest of my life.Just then, a burst of shrill laughter suddenly echoed from the end of the corridor, shattering the tense silence.Everyone turned in shock.Harriett walked over in a red dress, clapping her hands as she laughed. "Oh, what retribution! Hahaha! Josie, you wretch! Your mother finally died! This is what happens when you go against the Grant family!"Isaac had rushed back in such a hurry that he hadn't brought any

    "Mom!" I finally broke down and sobbed uncontrollably.My mother's hand was as cold as ice. I gripped it with all my strength, yet I could not warm it no matter how hard I tried.Timothy stood frozen, staring at the flat line on the screen and at my shattered state, all color drained from his face.It was as if all his strength had been pulled away. He staggered back a few steps. He didn't come closer or say another word. He only looked at me deeply once.Then he slowly turned and walked out of the ward step by step.The ward was left with nothing but my cries and the monotonous, piercing tone of the machines.The hope I had clung to for so many years was finally crushed in the most brutal way.Doctors and nurses quietly walked in, their voices cautious. "Please prepare. It's time to change her into her funeral clothes. Once the body stiffens, it will be harder to dress her."Mom walked over with reddened eyes and pulled me gently into her arms. Her choked voice was as soft as

    At that moment, hurried, chaotic footsteps echoed from the end of the corridor. The ward door slammed open.Timothy rushed in, his suit jacket thrown over his arm and his tie crooked. His usually immaculate hair now fell messily across his forehead.He asked, "Josie, how is your mother doing?"He ran to my side, breathing hard, panic filling his voice in a way I had never heard before.I acted as if I didn't hear him. I stayed crouched beside the bed, pressing my mother's cold hand gently against my cheek. When I was sick as a child, she would touch my forehead with her warm palm and chase away my fear.But now, her hand was as cold as ice. It would never warm me again.Timothy's gaze fell on the nearly flat line on the heart monitor, then moved to my red, swollen eyes and my mother's lifeless face.He froze in place. The panic on his face hardened into shock."Timothy, go to hell!" Ruby rushed forward and grabbed him violently.Her voice trembled with sobs, each word soaked i

    "I'm sorry, Mom. I'm so sorry…" My voice broke as my tears fell onto the back of her hand like a broken string of pearls. "It's all my fault. I couldn't protect you…"Just then, the door was pushed open. Mom and Dad rushed into the room.When Mom saw my mother lying there without any sign of life, she couldn't hold it in anymore. She leaned into Dad's arms and began to sob quietly."It's not just Josie," she said, her voice heavy with grief and despair. "We've been holding on for over 20 years. For 20 years, we did everything we could to keep Winona alive. And now, with a single word from Timothy, the device is gone just like that…""Enough," Dad said under his breath. Even though his own eyes were red, he forced himself to stay steady. "What's the point of saying that now? Joise's already suffering enough."The moment he finished speaking, a sharp alarm cut through the room.It was the heart monitor.I looked up abruptly, only to see that every vital sign on the screen was flas
