Ten Minutes Late for My Mother's Final Moments Chapter 18
Sierra actually survived the crash. By the time she groggily opened her eyes, half a month had already passed. The doctor, Albert Klein, said she was incredibly fortunate, because if she had stayed unconscious any longer, she could have ended up in a vegetative state.Sierra looked around the room, but she didn't see the one face she was hoping for. Clinging to her last shred of hope, she asked Albert, "Who brought me to the hospital?"Albert paused, then answered honestly. "I think it was one of the cemetery staff. They said your car lost control and crashed into the mountainside."Sierra was stunned for a while before she asked hoarsely, unable to believe it, "Did a man come by to visit me while I was out?"Albert said no. Then he handed her a hospital bill and told her to pay it as soon as possible.The bill was just a thin slip of paper, but it felt as heavy as a boulder, and a bitter taste kept rising in Sierra's mouth. She refused to believe that Bradley could be that heartl

Despite all that, Bradley was completely unmoved. No matter how far Harvey had fallen, it had nothing to do with him anymore.The staff members were big, burly men, and they half-dragged, half-pulled Sierra away. No one would have recognized her as the once-respected CEO of Perkins Group. She was broken, groveling, and pitiful, yet even more deserving of contempt.Once Sierra's voice faded into the distance, Bradley took a deep breath. Then, he grabbed a broom himself and swept the area around the grave clean.The surroundings grew quiet again. Bradley stared at the headstone, which had no photo on it, for a long time. As he lowered his eyes, a few tears fell before he gently sniffed and wiped them away.Harvey had destroyed Kristey's last photo. Bradley had later tried to restore it using digital technology, but the result never looked like the mother he remembered.The first time he laid Kristey to rest here, Madeline had stayed by his side the whole time, sitting with him from

Sierra turned around, and her eyes stayed glued to Bradley. Yesterday, their reunion had been so sudden that she hadn't really had the chance to look at him.Now, she noticed that Bradley had become much more composed. Everything he had experienced and learned over the past two years showed in the quiet confidence he carried. He wore nothing more than a simple white shirt and jeans, yet he looked even more handsome and distinguished.Sierra felt her heart, which had been dead and silent for two years, begin to pound again. She still loved Bradley, and she loved him even more deeply than she had two years ago.The moment she realized it, Sierra eagerly took two steps toward him. "Bradley, please don't get the wrong idea. I just came to visit Mom..." Bradley thought it was ironic. It was the first time Sierra had ever called Kristey "Mom", and it came only after the two of them had already become strangers.His eyes turned ice-cold as he saw straight through her act. "Sierra, your

Running into Sierra hadn't stirred so much as a ripple in Bradley's heart. After she left, he went straight into a second meeting without missing a beat, and he successfully closed an international partnership deal. By the time the meeting ended, it was already late at night. The partner shook Bradley's hand and said sincerely, "Summers Group suits you far better than Perkins Group ever did. Mr. Jaeger, you deserve a bigger and better stage to shine on."For some reason, Bradley's eyes began to burn a little, and he thanked him. Down in the parking garage, Madeline was waiting for him. Once he climbed in, she leaned across to buckle him in and smiled. "Thanks for all your hard work today."The car merged smoothly into traffic, and the two of them headed home to the Summers estate together. Madeline's mother, Natalia Hillman, was thrilled to see Bradley. She had cooked up a big spread of all his favorite dishes.She said, "You're not just my future son-in-law. You're family. From

The metal chair crashed to the floor with a loud clang as Sierra shot to her feet. She clenched her jaw, and her voice was low and heavy. "That's impossible. Are you two playing me for a fool and teaming up to lie to me?" "Why would we need to? You're giving yourself way too much credit, Ms. Perkins." Madeline stood up too. She was slightly taller than Sierra, and she looked down at her coolly.She continued, "We're getting married next month. But you won't be welcome at the wedding, Ms. Perkins. And I have to remind you, Ms. Perkins, that Bradley is one of Summers Group's most outstanding employees. He's not some bargaining chip for you to trade."As the two women faced off, Sierra could tell that Madeline's possessiveness over Bradley was real. In an instant, jealousy burned so fiercely inside her that the corners of her eyes turned red.She practically screamed, "Bradley is my fiancé! I never agreed to call off our engagement! I'm the one who's supposed to marry him! Me!"Made

Sierra said, "I did so many things to hurt you, and I haven't stopped thinking about you for a single second. Without you by my side, I've been living like a walking corpse for the past two years."At that, she couldn't help but step forward and take Bradley's hand, lacing her fingers tightly through his. She continued, "Bradley, come back with me. Let's get married. I'll treat you right for the rest of my life, and we'll build a good life together..."Before Sierra could even finish speaking, Bradley knocked her hand away hard with a sharp smack. His voice was ice-cold as he growled, "Sierra, have some self-respect. There's nothing between us anymore. This is Summers Group, and we're nothing but strangers."His calm expression had only flickered for a moment when she said those three little words, "I love you," and then it was gone. Maybe two years ago, this would have been the confession he had always dreamed of. It was the dream he had worked so hard for and never managed to reac
