All Chapters of There's No Turning Back: Chapter 441 - Chapter 450

The instant after her warning to Harvey, Beau's voice burst through the phone, his childlike cry rooting Elara to the spot."Mommy!"Harvey angled the camera, bringing Beau's face into view on her screen.The boy had grown alarmingly gaunt overnight. His sunken eye sockets made his dark pupils resemble bottomless voids. He wore only a thin hoodie, and the oversized neckline exposed his sharp collarbones.No Fisher employee would ever allow Beau outside so underdressed in this weather. Red windburn patches mottled his cheeks as he stared wide-eyed at Elara's image. Raw longing flooded his expression.Such was a child's fickle heart—yesterday's resentment was now replaced by desperate need. All he wanted was to bury himself in her arms, recounting every hardship he had endured."Mommy, Daddy and I are at Atkina Church. Grandfather shaved both our heads."He bowed to show his bare scalp. A finger-length scar bisected the right side, and the sight made Elara's left eyelid twitch vio

Theodore was acting as if he and Elara had been doing something illicit in this hospital room! Calling Theodore out from under the bed now would make the situation even more awkward in front of Leonard!Elara still cared about maintaining some dignity around Leonard—she needed to preserve her respectable image! Thanks to Theodore's antics, she hastily stuffed the abandoned stethoscope under the blankets.Now she genuinely looked like someone hiding an affair.The motorized wheelchair carried Leonard toward her while Fisher bodyguards remained stationed outside. Xavier followed behind, clutching a bouquet of pale pink tulips. His entire face lit up seeing Elara awake.He scampered to the bedside, his pale features blooming with a honey-sweet smile."Xav!"Elara pulled him into a half-hug, making the boy blush furiously. He bowed his head and raised the tulips with both hands."Are these for me?"At Xavier's vigorous nod, she accepted the flowers. "Thank you, Xavier. I love them.

Elara gently touched the twin braids on either side of Merida's head. "Did Uncle Finn do your hair?""Mhm!" Merida nodded vigorously. "Uncle Finn said he used to braid your hair too!"A soft smile graced Elara's lips as she looked at Finnegan with deep gratitude.Merida asked with concern, "Mommy, have you eaten lunch? Are you hungry?"She held up the thermal container. "Uncle Finn made you a special chicken soup. It's made with love!""Tch!" A scoff came from under the bed as Theodore ground his molars in disdain. But with Merida talking, no one clearly heard it.Finnegan's sharp ears caught the sound. His gaze instinctively swept behind him, landing on Leonard's impassive face.Though Elara hadn't eaten since waking, the medication left her with little appetite. Yet seeing Merida's eager expression, she warmly said, "I'm starving!""Wait a minute, Mommy!"Merida practically glowed at being needed. She unscrewed the thermos, portioning the steaming soup into a bowl with caref

"What?" Elara asked Theodore."Didn't you hear my heart shouting its love for you when you used the stethoscope to listen to my heart?"A nurse entered the room to deliver Elara's blood test report and was surprised to see yet another incredibly handsome man in the room.Gathering her courage, the nurse spoke up. "Visiting hours are over. Please come back tomorrow."Theodore braced one hand against the bedsheet and used the other to pull out the hair tie securing Elara's hair. Her long, black hair spilled down like a waterfall.He spread his fingers, causing the hair tie to slip through them and roll onto his pale wrist."Rest well," Theodore said before leaving.Elara held the blood test report in her hand, but for the first time, she couldn't focus on the words on the page.She vaguely heard the nurse say that she needed to stay for further observation. Once the nurse left, Elara burrowed under the blanket. She pulled out the stethoscope from under the blanket before recallin

Harvey's breathing was obstructed. He opened his mouth, his chest rising and falling as he panted heavily. He looked dazed, and his body reacted.Elara's eyes widened in shock. She never could have imagined that, in a life-and-death situation, he would actually…It seemed that some men needed to be restrained to become honest.Harvey's dark eyes gleamed with excitement. He could feel himself about to lose control.He gasped for air in great heaves, no longer struggling.She took away his air but gave him ecstasy in return… He looked into her eyes, and his eyes were filled with yearning.The large hand that had been gripping the back of Elara's hand slowly slid down, landing on her waist.Elara realized that the stethoscope in her hands was no longer effective. She released one hand and reached for the emergency call button on the wall.A dozen seconds later, the hospital door opened with a loud bang. The on-duty nurse rushed in and immediately switched on the lights.The nur
