The Absurdity of It All Chapter 10
The evidence was obvious, and the university administration took the matter very seriously. They formed a unit within the research misconduct committee to look into the entire case.The truth soon came out.Bianca had been the one researching the new nanomaterial all these years. As for Mason, he couldn't even explain the relevant technical terms properly. On top of that, the two had once been married.The university could almost determine Bianca's motive from that alone. To get her husband admitted without going through the proper admission routes, she had deliberately handed Mason her research results.As soon as the investigation notice was posted on campus, the students were furious. They had studied bitterly for years and barely managed to get into that university, but Mason had relied on a woman to get admitted without an exam so easily. It was too unfair!The students spontaneously cornered Mason and Bianca, holding banners and demanding that the university expel them bot

"Alan," Bianca called my name softly, her voice full of pain.She put her hand into her pocket, then slowly took out a velvet box. When she opened it, an elegant men's wedding band lay inside. I could tell it was worth a fortune in just a glance. It shone brilliantly even in the dim room."Do you remember the year your mom passed away? We were seniors, and you said you had no home anymore. I held you that day and said I would marry you one day. We'll have children with you and give you a home again. Alan, I came to keep my promise."Outside the window, white funeral memorial ribbons drifted down in the wind.I suddenly felt dizzy.I was so furious I could faintly taste the blood in my throat.I knocked the velvet box to the floor.The ring, worth tens of thousands, rolled away and disappeared into some hidden corner."Eight years. We were together for eight whole years, and you never once thought about marrying me. Now that your lover has driven my grandma to her death, you c

I quietly stayed by the bed, wiping the back of my grandmother's hands and dressing her for burial at the funeral home together with the staff.Jessie asked why I had come so late. After thinking it over, I decided to keep the heart surgery a secret."Alan, I know about you and Bianca. You two got together in college. How could she register a marriage with someone else? She lied to you, didn't she? I'll call your cousins right now, and we can go find her together. Bianca owes an explanation!"I calmly told my aunt about Bianca and Mason. Her mouth widened in shock, her eyes full of bewilderment. She couldn't understand how anyone could be that insane.Bianca had married some man to help him and completely disregarded her boyfriend of eight years."Alan..." Jessie wanted to comfort me, but she did not know what to say.I buttoned the shirt's last button for my grandmother, then calmly looked up at my aunt. "I broke up with Bianca. I should've seen her for what she really was muc

The doctor said Alan wouldn't wake up until the next morning.Bianca used the chance to go home. She packed up all of Mason's belongings and threw them out, then sprayed Alan's favorite cologne around the house several times before she finally stopped.After all that, she sat quietly on the sofa and suddenly felt especially lonely. Usually, she could always see Alan somewhere whether she was reading the newspaper on the sofa or doing research in the study.Alan cooking a meal. Alan humming a song. Alan working out on the treadmill.She had always complained coldly that he was being too noisy, but she couldn't help secretly looking up at him every so often while she worked.Eight years had passed, but time didn't seem to have left many marks on him. He was still as handsome as he had been in college. Only, for some reason, the smile on his face had grown rarer and rarer.Bianca shifted glumly and lay down. Then, something dug into her.When she got up and looked, it was a watch

Bianca never got Alan's answer.He had gotten too emotional. The doctor was afraid something might happen, and so quickly sedated him.Alan was asleep now, but he still didn't sleep peacefully even under sedation. His straight brows were drawn tight, and he would murmur from time to time. His voice was hoarse and full of despair.Bianca could hear what he was saying.Sometimes, he called for his mother. Sometimes, he called for his grandmother. They had been the closest people in Alan's life. Now, neither of them was left.Looking at Alan's sleeping face that was still full of pain, Bianca felt a sharp ache in her heart.She gently pressed her face against Alan's cold cheek and repeated what she had just said. "Alan, I'm going to marry you."It was at this time that her phone vibrated. Bianca glanced at the message, and she could feel the irritation rising inside of her. She tiptoed out of the hospital room.As soon as she stepped outside, she ran into Mason, who was holdin
The Absurdity of It All Chapter 5
When I woke up, I staggered to my feet with only one person on my mind.Grandma.I had to go to Southton. I had to see her one last time, even if she was already cold.However, the IV needle in the back of my hand held me back. Halfway up, the needle tore right out of my skin, and blood streamed down my hand. It hurt so badly that I couldn't help but hiss in pain.Hearing the commotion, Bianca quickly ran into the hospital room. When she saw the blood on my hand, she gently pressed it down, her voice full of panic. "Nurse! Please come in here!"The nurse stopped the bleeding, then inserted a new needle into my other hand.I frowned and tried to pull it out, but the nurse quickly stopped me. "What are you doing? Do you want to get killed? A blood vessel in your heart ruptured, and you just had open-heart surgery. You need to stay still right now. Stay on the IV and rest. Otherwise, your life will be in danger."I knew I shouldn't take my anger out on the nurse, but I still
