Why the Crocodile Tears? Chapter 590
Anathea's eyes went wide. Before she could react, someone grabbed her wrist and yanked her back.Were these two people working together?Her heart skipped a beat, and panic surged through her. She immediately started struggling. "Let go of me!"But the person behind her pulled her tighter into their arms. In a flash of instinct, Anathea lifted her foot and stomped hard on theirs.A low grunt came from right in front of her.Anathea froze.That voice sounded way too familiar.She looked up.Under the faint moonlight, the man's face was mostly hidden by a mask and cap, but Anathea recognized those deep-set eyes and that subtle cedarwood scent clinging to him.For the first time ever, Anathea found that scent comforting. Her eyes burned, either from fear or sheer relief. "You jerk! Would it kill you to say something first? I nearly had a heart attack!""Sorry…" Gregory's voice was hoarse as he apologized. But the moment he looked up and saw the flasher still standing there, his

Giselle was a top-tier lawyer, well-known and respected. How could she…"What, you don't want to?" Louie shrugged. "If that's the case, I have nothing left to say. This conversation's over."With that, he yanked the door open, ready to get out.He'd thrown that condition out on purpose because he couldn't stand being around her for even one more second."Wait!"Giselle grabbed his wrist and gritted her teeth. "Fine. One week. That's it."Louie froze, doubt filling his eyes."But you better give it your all and do everything in your power to save Gabriel," Giselle said through clenched teeth. "If you back out, you're dead."Louie gulped.Wait a second. Wasn't he supposed to be the one making things difficult for her? How did it suddenly feel like he was the one being put on the spot?…The next day, Anathea packed her things early and made a stop at the hospital to say goodbye to Adam.He was slowly eating his breakfast when she walked in. The moment he saw her, he gave her

Louie froze. A subtle shift flickered in his eyes behind the lenses as he looked at Giselle with suspicion.Something long dormant inside him suddenly rippled at her words."If your arm is injured, it might affect Gabriel's surgery," Giselle calmly said.At that, whatever hint of softness had risen in Louie's eyes vanished. He let out a dry, bitter laugh. "Right. Without me, how could you possibly save Gabriel? So my arm still holds some value to you."So that was it. Giselle had only shown care because she wanted something from him."So if I weren't Gabriel's surgeon, you wouldn't have offered me a ride, wouldn't have brought me ice, and probably wouldn't even bother saying hi if we passed on the street, would you, Ms. Chamberlain?" Louie asked with a scoff.But for some reason, deep down, a part of him was still hoping she would deny it.Even if they were broken up now, they had been together for four years. Surely, that counted for something—enough for a simple hi, at least.

Adrian's mouth twitched, and he gave Louie a helpless shrug.Louie just looked dead inside. He was starting to wonder if he was still a neurosurgeon or had somehow turned into a babysitter."Fine! Do whatever the hell you want!" Louie threw up his hands, fed up.He pointed at Gregory and Theo. "If I ever rush over here again for something like this, I swear I'll be a damn loser!"He turned and stormed off. But on the way out, he smacked his hand on the corner of a table. The pain had him baring his teeth.Great. Now all four of them in this room couldn't even make up one set of functional limbs.Adrian just sighed and shook his head.Before leaving, Louie gave Gregory and Theo another stern warning—especially Gregory, who'd nearly pushed his body to the edge. If they pulled anything like this again, he didn't care if they dropped dead. He wasn't coming back.And with that, he walked out of the boxing gym without looking back.Outside, Giselle was leaning against the car with a

"What?" Theo froze.When he saw the murderous look in Gregory's eyes, he finally realized that Gregory was talking about Anathea."What are you even talking about?" Theo snapped. "When did I ever break her heart?""You're denying it?" Gregory hurled his phone straight at Theo's face.It hit Theo right on the bridge of his nose, making him wince in pain. "Damn it!"Gregory really didn't know how to hold back.But the moment Theo got a good look at the screen—a photo of him chatting with two curvy women up close—he paused."This has got to be a weird camera angle!" Theo protested immediately. "I wasn't sitting that close!"Gregory still didn't speak. He just stared sharply at Theo.But the truth was, this wasn't even about the photo. He didn't care how many women Theo had been with. What made his blood boil was that Anathea had accepted a man like that.What did Theo have that he didn't?Theo instinctively swallowed hard. He could feel the icy killing intent in Gregory's eyes.

Gregory's eyes were bloodshot, like they were lit with fire, ready to burn everything around him to ash.Theo took one look and knew something was wrong. Gregory had completely lost control.He'd seen this side of him before back in school. Even at 16, Gregory had taken down a group of towering thugs like it was nothing.But back then, Gregory had done it to protect Theo. This time, though, that fury was aimed straight at him.Theo had no chance of winning, and Gregory wasn't going to kill him, so things ended up like this."That's the fifth boxer he's gone up against." Theo looked at the sweat-soaked, badly bruised Gregory and said sharply, "He's trying to kill himself, choosing to torture himself with this nonstop sparring!""Then why didn't you stop him?" Louie asked as he arrived."Me?" Theo gestured to his face, still pressed against an ice pack. "Are you listening to yourself right now?"If he could have stopped Gregory, he wouldn't be sitting down here nursing a busted f
