LOGINAt that moment, alarms blared from all directions."Lilian, the police are closing in," one of Lilian's subordinates said.Lilian immediately lifted me onto her back, trying to carry me away.I looked at the panic on her face and found it almost laughable. I refused, saying, "My leg is injured. I can't move.""Please, come with me," Lilian pleaded.She ignored my protests, hoisted me onto her back, and fled toward a remote valley. She moved through the area as if she knew every inch. For a moment, it looked like she might actually escape.I bit down on my tongue until it bled and spat the blood onto Lilian. "I can't take this anymore. If we keep running, I'll die."After hearing my words, Lilian stopped in her tracks. She scanned the surroundings, spotted an abandoned coffin nearby, and climbed inside with me.After a while, I heard the police closing in on us. I deliberately made a noise. "Lilian, it hurts."Lilian stared at me in disbelief, never expecting me to reveal ourse
While waiting for me, Lilian held Wesley and sat down outside the operating room. "Jack, grab a blanket before he gets cold."Everyone looked at Lilian as if she were completely insane.Wesley's body had already begun to stiffen in her arms, yet she still told someone to prepare formula. She cradled Wesley and tried to coax him as she fed him from the bottle. "Sweetheart, be good. Don't spit it out."Wesley, who was already gone, couldn't drink the formula at all. Still, no one present dared to say a word, and the atmosphere turned ice-cold.I was being resuscitated in the operating room, and all that remained was to wait for the DNA test results for Kenneth and Anna's child.Before long, the doctor responsible for the paternity test arrived with the report and handed it to Lilian with trembling hands. She passed the report down, and each subordinate read it in turn.It turned out that the child Anna was carrying truly belonged to Kenneth. Everyone was shocked by how bold Anna ha
While I was being resuscitated in the operating room, Lilian stared at Wesley in her arms, his head crushed flat. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't make sense of it.She kept wondering why, when her car hit me earlier that day, she hadn't checked who it was and had even wished for my death. Panic gripped her as she wondered if I could ever forgive her, especially after I had called her blood filthy before I was taken into surgery.She scanned the room, searching for the one truly responsible.When Kenneth saw her in that state, he stepped forward to comfort her. "It's alright, Lily. Even if this child is gone, you can still have others in the future."But the Lilian who had always doted on Kenneth now looked utterly deranged. "Do you know I've wanted this child for eight years? Eight years! Why didn't I realize that it was Zachary back then? Why?"Suddenly, her gaze lingered on Kenneth's face. "It was you! You did this! You killed Wesley!"Lilian grabbed Kenneth by the t
Perhaps I should help Lilian remember why she didn't hear me calling her back then.I had tried to call out to her, sobbing and begging for help. But because she complained that I was too noisy, her men sewed my mouth shut with a needle and thread. Wesley, who was crying, was thrown to the ground by her men in a fit of rage.I met Lilian's gaze, my eyes filled with disgust. A cold smile spread across my lips while she teetered on the brink of madness from agony."What are you all standing around for? Do you want to die?" Lilian shouted.A flash of hurt crossed her eyes. She couldn't endure my mocking stare and raised the gun above her head, firing two shots into the ceiling.The hospital erupted instantly. Everyone rushed in a panic to push me into the operating room.The head of the department spoke up. "The patient has lost too much blood."He looked at the operating room, splattered with my blood, and let out a heavy sigh. He wanted to say that my chances were slim, but after
With a sharp crackling sound, the emerald pendant shattered into pieces across the floor. Lilian had been running back in panic, but she paused the moment her eyes landed on the pendant.She rushed over to me. The instant our eyes met, she froze in shock. "Why are you here?"Lilian studied my face repeatedly, unable to believe that I was the man she had once ordered to have his mouth sewn shut. When she realized the child in the corner, who had been crushed, was Wesley, she broke down on the spot.Tears streamed down Lilian's face as she pulled Wesley into her arms with trembling hands. "It took me eight years to have this child. I truly didn't know that it was you, Zachary!"Lilian dropped to her knees, her eyes wild with agony. She collapsed onto the floor, slapping herself in remorse and sobbing uncontrollably."Zachary Carson! How did this happen? How did it come to this?"Lilian screamed in hysteria while clutching Wesley. She had never imagined that the child she had once c
Outside the operating room, Kenneth's wound had nearly healed after being bandaged."It doesn't hurt anymore. Lily, you're so good to me," Kenneth said.He held Lilian's hand and smiled gently. "Lily, I've heard that a fetal heart can help strengthen the heart. You know I've always had palpitations.""Go take that baby's heart, dry it, and get it ready for Kenneth's treatment," Lilian said with disgust. "He already had asthma. Dying was what he deserved."Moments later, two tattooed men barged in and slammed into me with such force that I felt my limbs going numb. Despair washed over me as I watched them approach Wesley with knives.Once inside the operating room, the same lackey said to Anna, "I really think that this child is Lilian's son. Should we ask her? He looks far too much like him."Anna immediately snapped at him. "Are you stupid? Even if he were Lilian's child, he would still be nothing but an unwanted bastard. Didn't you see how frantic Lilian was over Mr. Taylor? If
