Julian Ziegler betrays his and Willow Harper's four-year marriage. He pursues his true love like mad, wanting to make up for the regrets he experienced in his youth. Willow loves him deeply and tries her best to win him back. However, he wraps an arm around his true love and mocks her. "You're the furthest thing from a woman I've ever seen, Willow! I can't even get it up when I look at your icy face!" Willow's heart dies at his words. She no longer clings to him and leaves, not wanting to embarrass herself further. … Julian doesn't recognize Willow when they meet again. She sheds her strong, domineering façade, revealing a softer, more affectionate side. Countless big shots pursue her—even the most powerful man in the city smiles only for her. Julian loses his mind! He loiters outside her door every night, giving her checks and expensive jewelry. If possible, he would dig out his heart for her. When others are curious about their relationship, Willow merely smiles indifferently. "Mr. Ziegler is just a passing chapter in the book of my life."

Leaving You Bereft Chapter 884
An hour later, several cars pulled into a sprawling villa.Even Xavier was stunned, thinking Landon was more than generous.This was Bristlewick, and they were in one of the prime districts. How much could a villa spanning over 20,000 square feet cost? Right across the street was Fred's office.Xavier nudged Fred. "How big is your apartment in Bristlewick?"Fred hopped out of the car, smoothing his coat. "About 1,500 square feet."That was already considered luxurious. But Landon had just bought a 20,000-square-foot house outright. Unreal.Landon helped Thalia out of the car and said calmly, "We decided to move here a week ago. I had Leslie pay 20% above market value to secure it. The previous owner moved out three days ago, and all the furniture is brand new."None of that mattered. What mattered was that Thalia was comfortable.She had endured too much already.But Thalia was uneasy. Wealth on this scale felt overwhelming. She turned to him. "Honestly, staying at the hospita

That kind of promise was cruel to Landon, but he agreed anyway.Thalia never said it out loud, but he knew how much pain she was in, how grueling dialysis was, how her body was changing under the strain of organ failure. She cared deeply, even if she pretended not to, trying not to worry him.She would sneak glances in the mirror, fretting over her looks. To him, she was always the same.When life and death hung in the balance, beauty didn't matter anymore.That night, they fell asleep in each other's arms for once.In the vast bedroom, only a small orange night-light glowed. April in Falombia was still chilly, barely into the 50s, and the night air carried a sharp coolness, but inside, it was warm and cozy. The floor-to-ceiling windows were fogged with a thin mist.At first, she lay with her back to him, his warm body pressed against hers.Later, even that closeness wasn't enough. She rolled over, gently wrapping her arms around his waist, burying her face against his chest. Th

Starting January 5th, Landon barely slept more than four hours a night.He was tied up with Nebula Group's business, tied up with finding a cure for Thalia. He flew with her to countless places, seeking out renowned doctors, searching for a matching kidney, but heaven showed them no mercy.Every time, they came back disappointed.Landon had grown thin. His tall frame hung loose in clothes that once fit him perfectly.Thalia had been ravaged by her illness until she was nearly unrecognizable. Many times, the pain made her want to give up, to end her life. But she always remembered that Landon had told her to hold on a little longer."Thalia, you've come this far. What's one more step?"No matter how sharp the pain, she endured it.…By spring, they were in Falombia, Guscain.Their next stop would be Bristlewick, where Fred was waiting.They stayed in high-end villas and estates.Each place they went, Landon bought a villa, outfitting it with the latest medical equipment and a

Willow gently touched Toby's little face, memories flooding back.Toby really did look just like Landon when he was little.What a sweet boy.After the meal, Willow called Thalia up to the south bedroom on the second floor and closed the door behind them.Thalia felt a pang of guilt and opened her mouth to speak, but Willow stopped her. She brushed back Thalia's hair, revealing her smooth, unscarred face, and said softly, "This will always be your home, no matter in the past, or in the future."Thalia's voice shook. "Okay."She couldn't hold back anymore and threw her arms around Willow, crying quietly against her. She felt she had been given so much more than she deserved, and it left her uneasy.But Willow felt the opposite. She believed she owed Thalia far too much. If she'd been wiser back then and never let Thalia go live with Selena, she wouldn't have had such a tragic childhood, nor the pain that followed. It was her failure to protect her.From now on, she would guard T

Early in the morning, Thalia woke up naturally. It had been days since she'd slept this peacefully. The bed was soft, the quilt warm, and the pillow still carried Landon's scent, with a faint trace of fresh tobacco.She breathed it in deeply, feeling that being alive was such a gift. Just then, she heard voices coming from outside. And Leslie's was among them.After giving a few instructions, Landon asked Leslie to leave first. Then, he walked into the bedroom and saw Thalia sitting on the bed with a dazed expression. He gave her a faint smile. "You're awake."She nodded. "Are we heading back to the Ziegler residence?"He said, "Before we go back, there's somewhere else we have to go first."She didn't understand.He sat down, picked up her bag, and started going through it. Soon, he pulled out her ID card and held it up. "We're going to the city hall. Thalia, a lot of medical procedures need a primary family member's signature. Besides me, who do you want signing for you?"She

If love had its moment, it was now. Right here, right now.Thalia lifted her hand, wanting to touch Landon's face, but her fingers trembled so badly. When her palm finally landed, it met the warmth of his tears. She couldn't hold it steady, just like she couldn't hold her own life together.But this time was different.A hand caught hers, pressing it firmly against his cheek. From now on, she wouldn't be alone. Whatever she wanted to do, Landon would help her. Whatever she couldn't do, he would do for her. He would never leave her on her own again.Her voice shook. "Landon, you're crying.""Yes," he said softly. "I'm crying." As he said that, he buried his head deep against her stomach.After a long time, he gently lifted her sweater, exposing the flat plane of her belly. His gaze lingered on the faint scar etched into her thin body. He realized his feelings for Thalia weren't just love, not just family, but something deeper, like wanting to merge her into his very bones, to carr
