Chapter 787

Penulis: Eli Sole
“You made the decision yourself. Why should I question it?”

Yuna’s voice was already tinged with impatience. “You’re an adult, Levi. What, you still need me to map out your life for you?”

“I’m not asking you to,” Levi said, his voice tight with urgency. “I just… I just wanted you to really see me. After everything we’ve been through, do I really not even count as a friend in your eyes?”

“I don’t need friends.”

Yuna’s tone turned colder. She moved to shut the door. “You’re clearly drunk. Coming here to act out—what do you expect me to do? I’m going to bed. I don’t have time to deal with a drunk.”

Seeing her about to close the door, Levi panicked and pressed his hand against it, voice rising without meaning to.

“I left the hospital for you! I wanted to become someone strong enough to protect you! Yuna, I—”

“Are you insane?!”

Yuna snapped, shoving him hard.

“I don’t need your protection! Stop doing these self-sacrificing, self-indulgent things and pretending it’s for me. To me, y

    “I-It’s nothing,” Layla stammered. “I just came over to see if you wanted to go grocery shopping together—for the holiday dinner tonight.”She waved her hand dismissively, then gently pushed William toward the hallway. “You’re all sweaty. Go shower.”William let her push him along, helplessly saying, “Alright, I’ll go clean up and change. Wait for me.”“Okay.”Behind the closed bedroom door, Scarlett pressed her ear closer, but still couldn’t make out what they were saying. She frowned and mentally replayed her behavior from earlier. Aside from being a little awkward, she figured she hadn’t said or done anything wrong.After all, she was only just beginning to try accepting Layla. Wasn’t it normal to act a little strange at first?Still, the more she thought about it, the more annoyed she got. Why was she suddenly second-guessing herself?If the two of them were really getting serious, shouldn’t Layla be the one trying to win her over?With that thought, Scarlett lifted her chi

    “And let’s be real—what do you have now that compares to William Lucas? No money, no power…”Sean tightened his grip around her neck, but Xena didn’t back down. She sneered, “And you won’t even live as long as he will.”“Xena!”Sean clenched his teeth and used every ounce of strength he had, but he still couldn’t shut her up.The helplessness was enough to drive him to the brink. With a sharp shove, he pushed her away.Xena stumbled and barely caught herself against the floor-to-ceiling window. “Yeah, the truth hurts, but that doesn't make it any less true.“You should give up now while you still can. Pull your money out before you lose every last cent. When you’re broke and can’t even afford treatment, all you’ll have left is waiting to die.”She turned to leave, but paused at the door to throw one last line over her shoulder.“The long fall weekend starts Friday. I’ll be home for the break. Once it’s over, I’ll take you to the hospital—your next round of chemo’s scheduled.”

    At the same time, Hannah received a termination contract from Layla Studio.She had known Layla’s decision was final but actually holding the contract in her hands made it feel like the sky was crashing down.For a long while, she just stared at it, unable to summon the courage to even flip it open.She never imagined Layla would be this resolute. There wasn’t even a sliver of room to negotiate.Hannah had even planned to host a celebratory party for the success of the September issue. She thought she would take that chance to apologize to Layla properly. As long as Layla was willing to stay, she would have done anything.Suddenly, her phone rang, breaking through the silence. She glanced at the caller ID, hesitated, and reluctantly answered. She put it on speaker.Sean’s voice came through, “So? How did it go with Layla?”“She didn’t give me a chance.”Rubbing her temples, Hannah sounded exhausted. “She just sent a termination contract. I haven’t read through it yet. If you wa

    “You’re too kind. I should be the one thanking YT Corporation for giving me such a great opportunity,” Layla said with a thoughtful smile. “Honestly, starting a children’s charity foundation is something I’ve always wanted to do. This feels like the perfect chance to learn.”A flicker of sadness passed through her eyes, gone in an instant, buried beneath her deliberately lighthearted tone.But William caught it.He knew exactly what she was thinking—the small mountain school buried by that storm all those years ago.It was the same tragedy that had inspired him to launch the YT Charity Foundation in the first place. He could relate completely.Beneath the table, William gently took her hand.Layla didn’t think much of it. She just gave him a soft smile, then turned to Xavier. “Mr. Taylor, for this campaign, I really want to make sure the public outreach has the strongest possible impact.”“Huh?” Xavier blinked. “You mean you want to make it a big deal?”Layla nodded. “Exactly.”

    Shane stood there watching as the man slid into a sleek black Koenigsegg. The sports car roared to life, vanishing into the night like an arrow released from a bow.A thrill stirred in Shane’s chest as he clenched the slip of paper in his pocket. Any lingering doubts he had about the mysterious man vanished the moment he saw that car—worth tens of millions. He didn’t know what Xenos was really after, but one thing was clear. The man had power. And maybe, just maybe, he was the lifeline the Xander family desperately needed.If that day ever came, Shane would prove he wasn’t a worthless burden. He would pay back every ounce of humiliation he had suffered—tenfold.Fueled by ambition, Shane returned home. As soon as he stepped through the door, he saw the living room lamp still on.Chris closed his laptop and looked up. “It’s late. You’re not a kid anymore. Would it kill you to answer your phone? I’m not asking you to carry the family on your back, but at least don’t make things hard

    Late at night, Shane staggered drunkenly against a streetlamp and threw up everything he had in him. His body felt hollow, and he collapsed in the corner by a wall, drained and filthy.People passing by cast disgusted looks his way, muttering under their breath.Shane noticed. He tilted his head back and burst into a crazed laugh, shouting at the top of his lungs, “What? Never seen human trash before? Go on—stare! I’ll give you a good show!”His voice cracked near the end. He slumped against the wall, shut his eyes, and suddenly, life just felt pointless.A worthless screw-up like him was just wasting oxygen.All he ever did was mess things up. Maybe it would be better if he just ended it.Once the thought entered his mind, it clung to him like a curse, echoing louder and louder.He pushed himself up, staggering toward the edge of the sidewalk. His eyes locked onto the busy street ahead. Headlights flashed in his face, bright and disorienting, like they belonged to another world
