Semua Bab The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Bab 1661 - Bab 1670

'Mom and Corinne wouldn't have left home and suffered such a hard life if it hadn't been for those crappy things Dad did back then!' thought Lucas to himself.Lucas comforted his grandparents, but his tone was a tad sarcastic when he said, "Dad has been living well for the past few years, so it makes no sense he'll suddenly want to take his life. So don't worry. I promise I'll get him home safely."After saying this, Lucas turned to thank the two police officers, then walked upstairs calmly.Beatrice and Cedric looked at each other with shame in their eyes when they saw such indifference in Lucas' attitude.The two of them drove away Lucas' mother years ago, and although Lucas never said anything about it, they knew he never forgave them for that.Maxwell also suffered from severe mental illness after Emily left and needed to rely on drugs just to behave like a sane person.Even though Maxwell was in his prime then, he could no longer manage the company due to mental illness, so

Unsurprisingly, it was the first time Beatrice and Cedric came across the secret room as well, but they managed to piece things together nonetheless.They exchanged glances and sighed. They did not answer Sunny as they did not know how to answer him.It was not like they could tell him that his father secretly built a room behind the bookshelf because he did not want to sleep in the same bed as his wife, could they?They finally understood that over the years, their son had been sleeping in a different bed with the wife they forced him to marry.Sunny decided not to probe further when he did not get any answers from his grandparents. Instead, he stared thoughtfully at the secret room.The servants quickly brought the medicine and water to Maxwell. After forcing some water down his throat, Maxwell choked, coughed, and opened his eyes.Beatrice and Cedric sighed in relief when they saw him waking up.Beatrice stepped forward and held his hand."Maxwell, you're finally awake! You

"Do you think I can ever stop worrying about Corinne?" asked Lucas.Sunny understood what he was feeling. After all, the person Lucas cared about the most in the world was Corinne."Sigh! I'm also worried about her, but I have a hunch that she and Jeremy will reunite and live happily."Lucas glanced at him and responded softly, "Okay. Go to sleep, Sunny."Lucas looked really tired, so Sunny thought he should not bother him anymore. He nodded and turned around, but before he went out of the room, the butler suddenly barged in and said in a panic, "Mister Lucas, something happened Mister Maxwell! He… H—He…"The butler's face was pale, and he was in so much of a shock that he could not properly get his words out.Lucas and Sunny frowned."What's the matter? We've found Dad, haven't we?" asked Sunny.The butler was old, and his whole body was shaking when he spoke, "Mister Maxwell he cut his wrists, and there was so much blood…"Sunny's eyes widened in horror. "What?!"Lucas frow

"Corinne already has her hands full with everything that's going on. Not to mention, she's also busy trying to get Jeremy out from under Sophia's thumb. I don't think we should add to her problems," warned Lucas in a deep voice.Sunny's heart naturally went out to Corinne, but he was not going to sit by and do nothing when his father was dying!"But—""Enough! I forbid you from calling her!" warned Lucas again."Fine," said Sunny reluctantly. Even so, he made up his mind to ask Corinne for help when he saw how pitiful Maxwell looked lying on his hospital bed.'Lucas only says I can't call her. He didn't say anything about going over to the Holdens' estate to talk to Corinne. I'm just doing what he's telling me not to do,' thought Sunny.…The next day, Maxwell refused to eat when he woke up. He looked at Sunny dully and asked, "Where's Luna? When is she coming to see me?""Dad, please eat something first! I haven't called Luna yet. It's so early, and she might still be sleeping

As they rode the elevator, Sunny told Corinne, "Just try to cheer up Dad as best as you can. I'll be standing guard outside."Corinne frowned and glanced sideways at him. "Why do you need to stand guard outside? It's not like we're doing anything shameful."Sunny shook his head. "No, no. It's not that. I'm just afraid Lucas will find out about this. He's definitely going to beat me up then. He warned me several times yesterday not to bother you with this matter, but…for my dad's sake, I had no choice."Corinne simply scoffed.Ding! The elevator door opened.Sunny led Corinne to Maxwell's ward. When they went in, the servants were trying to coax Maxwell into eating, but he simply laid and stared at the ceiling as if he did not hear anything.Sunny sighed helplessly, then cleared his throat to attract attention, which made the servants retreat automatically.Sunny led Corinne to the bedside and said to Maxwell, "Dad, Luna's here to see you."Maxwell's pupils shrank, and he turn
