The Road He Didn't Take Chapter 9
When Rosalin left, she cried so hard as if someone had died.However, after facing her pleas, Jonathan did not spare her a shred of mercy."Don't you ever expect me to come and see you again! We're done forever!"His ruthless words shattered the last of her composure. She shrieked hysterically, completely losing her mind."Who the hell do you think you are?! You slept with me, yet you won't acknowledge me. You're just clinging onto the glory of a bureau chief's daughter! Open your eyes and look! Does she even want you anymore?"I shut my eyes to hide the disappointment in my eyes. It turned out that they had done so much more than I had imagined.Jonathan, who had been exposed, yelled at her furiously. "Then, why did you have to lie to me?"Rosalin left, leaving Jonathan and I in the hospital corridors.He rubbed his hands awkwardly. "Daphne… I never thought that your father would turn out this way because of me. I-I'm… I'm sorry."After a moment's hesitation, he slapped himse

Albert continued, "I blame myself. I was the reason why Michael had drank so much."Jonathan was completely pale. "Sir, what do you mean? Did you intend to promote me?"Albert glared at him in disappointment. "Michael came to me to ask me to give you a promotion!"Once something like that was brought into the open, every procedure became more complicated. My father had kept it quiet precisely because he did not want rumors spreading.However, Jonathan had left his post too many times for Rosalin over the years. Albert wanted to help, but his hands were tied.I figured Jonathan would understand.After Albert left, Jonathan's face had lost all its color that he almost toppled over. He looked at me as if that was the first time he had properly known me."Daphne…""Jonathan, I'm really feeling unwell! I feel terrible!" Rosalin's shrill voice cut him off. She clutched her chest and fell into his arms.Was she having a panic attack again?I grabbed Rosalin and smiled at her. "Perfe

Jonathan's expression shifted as he stammered, "I-It doesn't matter anymore anyway."Then, he turned to me with a frown and said, "What's the point in saying all this now, Daphne? You've already wasted so much of my time! How are you going to make it up to me?"You didn't fulfill the promises you made to me before your marriages, so why should I love you? At least, with Rosalin, I feel much more relaxed. You only disgust me."He glared at me angrily, making me freeze on the spot.Why did he hate me so much?I stared at him for a long time before taking the divorce papers I had prepared some time ago out of my bag."Since I disgust you, we should just split ways."Jonathan looked at the divorce papers for a long time. When he looked up at me once more, his eyes were gleaming with mixed emotions."Are you for real?"I could not understand. Why was he still hesitating at that point?"Of course, after the divorce, we'll split our properties equally. I won't take a cent more. Of c

Since Jonathan never loved me, everything I did was wrong.In the end, me, the evil villain of the story, got nothing at all.A week later, my father was finally transferred from the ICU to a normal patient's ward. Only then did I truly relax.I had not slept much in a few days. My body was utterly exhausted. I walked out of the hospital to head home to get some rest.My vision suddenly saw black as a heavy slap landed on my face."Daphne Stern, you tramp!"Jonathan looked furious as he slapped me again. Rosalin stood behind him, watching things unfold with interest.The slap caught me off guard and I fell to the ground. The hospital security guards by the side immediately pulled him back.Jonathan yelled at me, "How dare you report me?! I lost my job! Are you happy now? All these years, what did your useless father do for me? You and your parents are just here to torment me!"Jonathan had slapped me so hard that I started seeing stars. I could even taste blood in my mouth.A

Jonathan and Rosalin knew each other since they were children. After high school, Rosalin left to study abroad. She only returned the year when Jonathan and I met.Rosalin suffered from psychological issues. Whenever her condition flared up, she would cry and call for Jonathan to see her. Once she was cleared of it, she would then say that he was the husband of another woman, and that they should maintain a distance.They always had ties between them, with Rosalin having the complete rein of the strings.Time and time again, just a single phone call from her would be enough to get Jonathan to leave my side.My fingers dug deep into my palms, numbing pain spread through me.Right at that moment, Dr. Dunn exited the operation theater in a hurry."Where is the patient's family?"I quickly ran over, my heart thumping wildly. "Dr. Dunn, how is my father?"He lowered his gaze and let out a long sigh. "He's no longer in danger, but he needs to be kept in the ICU to be observed for a

Francis instantly realized that something was wrong. He looked terrified.Dr. Dunn shoved Francis, still in shock. "You idiot! Now do you believe that this is real?"Francis soon came to his senses. He knew that my father's life was truly at stake. He immediately wiped his face, switched on the sirens on his car, and moved his car side."Everyone, please clear a path for this patient!" He squeezed through traffic, finally opening up a path. I followed behind his car, while Dr. Dunn called the hospital on the way there.At the hospital entrance, medical staff placed my father, still bleeding from the mouth, onto a gurney and wheeled him into the emergency room.Dr. Dunn quickly got changed while still cursing at Francis."If he would only come to his senses earlier! How stupid was he to waste so much time!"Sitting on the bench in front of the operation theater, I was soaked in sweat.The nurses entered and exited carried a huge basin of gauzes covered in blood. They started r
