Chapter 605

作者: Happy Breadwinner
As if he'd forgotten everything else, James kissed Beverly passionately—until she pushed him away again. Grabbing his hand, she dragged him downstairs.

He tried to stop her, but he truly had no strength left. "What's wrong?"

"We're going to the hospital," she huffed angrily.

Half an hour later, James was admitted to the military hospital and placed in a VIP patient room. Beverly lay on a cot beside him, watching him as he lay on the bed. He couldn't hold on any longer and had already fallen into a deep sleep.

Three years ago, when she called him, he'd told someone that he was talking to his wBeverly got up and climbed onto the bed to lie next to him. She gently stroked his face.

No, that was impossible.

Before that call, they hadn't seen each other for six whole years. There had been no calls or messages. They'd completely vanished from each other's worlds.

  • You Watched Me Break, Now Watch Me Rise   Chapter 668

    In the basement parking lot of the government complex, Beverly slid into Kyle's car just as he groused, "Hurry up before they find out and come after us, will you?"Harold and Esther were in the backseat, strapped into child seats and facing the tablets before them. They seemed transfixed by the funny cartoon playing on the screens.Beverly turned on her laptop and activated Mine Hunter. With her system, she hacked into the surveillance cameras in the entire government complex and swapped out the footage. After that, she breached the security booth's boom gate control system.The boom gate of the basement parking lot slowly lifted.Kyle gave Beverly an approving look, clearly proud of her skills. He stepped on the gas, and the car sped out of the parking lot.Beverly rolled down the car window, her gaze fixed in the direction of the sunrise. It was also where James was right now.A warm breeze tousled her long hair and caressed her face. She was suddenly reminded of how James had

    "May you always have peace and a smooth-sailing career," Beverly said."Okay." James flashed her a smile.She slid her arms around his waist and buried her face in his chest, breathing in his familiar, unique scent. "James, I'll watch your inauguration on TV. I'll be proud of you."James lowered his gaze on Beverly and gently caressed her soft hair, chuckling. It sounded as if she were placating a child.…Beverly watched James get into his car, her gaze tracking his fleet of cars as it left. She then glanced over her shoulder to see that Trudy had settled into the passenger seat. She and William were discussing what they would have for dinner.Withdrawing her gaze, Beverly started the car.Upon returning to the government complex, she ate with her children, then watched some cartoons, gave them a bath, and put them to bed. After she'd tucked Esther and Harold into bed, she got up to pack their athleisure wear for the trip to Britas.She opened the closet door, only to stare bl

    James never thought someone could be so cruel as to hurt Beverly—because he certainly never would.He'd been unimaginably busy back then and had hurried through his tasks before returning to get Beverly.While he was on his way, he'd gotten a call from Damien saying Beverly had escaped. As a result, Evan blockaded the entire city. Damien told him to return to the base.But James couldn't.It was 2022. Conflict had broken out over the Haldera Ocean, and it had a devastating ripple effect. There were army green body bags lying by his feet, and hundreds upon thousands of lives were riding on his shoulders.In the end, Beverly suffered a cardiac arrest courtesy of Evan.James had given up on her once, but only because he wasn't strong enough. He hurried to rise through the ranks, determined to get to the top as quickly as he could. He would never let her go again.Beverly had her breath stolen away as James kissed her. When he released her, she slumped into his embrace and felt his

    Beverly smacked James' hand off and snapped, "And you even said that Esther has taken to calling you 'Daddy', and it would be hard for a one-year-old to change habits. After that, you produced a dozen documents…"When I first saw those documents, I was told the top brass were pressuring you to marry. To go along with them, you asked me to marry you. Were those documents even real? Did you teach Esther to call you 'Daddy'?"Last night, one of the things James had mentioned had struck true.He was busier than he'd ever been in the days following Esther's birth, but it was also his proudest moment. He'd protected the base in the Haldera Ocean, and his accomplishment had stunned everyone.He got both the credit and glory for that.At the time, Beverly was so weak that she worked mostly from home. James dropped by often to hear her report on progress. During his visits, he would smoothly take Esther from Maya.By Esther's fourth month, she was starting to make sounds and often called

    With his arm still around Beverly, James led her out of the office and passed her briefcase to the operator waiting at the door.Trudy suddenly realized she should have left with the police officers earlier, but instead, she'd frozen in place and gaped at James in disbelief. James, the object of her and the public's admiration, had lowered himself to softly beg a woman to love him.Trudy's gaze remained steady as she watched James murmur something to Beverly, though her emotions were all over the place.Who could've thought a powerful man like James was capable of such tenderness and humility in love?Trudy left the building with James and Beverly. She'd just opened the door to the passenger seat when a cool voice rang out behind her. "Get out."She lifted her gaze to find that the driver's seat was empty. Realization dawned on her belatedly, and she immediately closed the car door. She met Kent's amused gaze as he stood on the other side of the car."You'll get used to it after

    Tears rolled down Beverly's cheek and onto James' palm. His hand slowly fell from her face as he stared into her dark, glistening eyes. They were like the moon's reflection on the sea surface, rippled by wave after rolling wave."Honey, what happened?"She looked so sad that his heart wrenched.Beverly's slender shoulders trembled. She lowered her head as she frantically wiped her tears away. Then, she lifted her delicate, chiseled face.Perhaps owing to her sheltered upbringing, Beverly's beauty had a certain innocence about it. She was also prone to crying, and her tears always made her already-alluring eyes clearer and brighter.The way she stared at James as she did now, with her hand clasped around his, made it hard for him to look away."James, did you like me all those years ago because you felt sorry for me, a motherless orphan with a cheating father? Do you love me now because you still feel sorry for me?" Beverly put a hand to her chest. "Because my ex-husband cheated o
