Semua Bab The CEO’s Obsession: Layla, You’re Not Allowed to Die: Bab 61 - Bab 70

For three days, there wasn’t a single trace of Xena.Just as everyone was busy speculating about her whereabouts, a message popped up on everyone’s phone: the address of St. North Hospital.Given the circumstances, no one wanted to ignore a potential lead. They immediately rushed to the hospital.A large crowd arrived together, only to see Mr. Perry Sr. standing in the middle of the lobby, a few bodyguards behind him.Sean spoke without thinking. “Grandpa? What are you doing here?”Mr. Perry Sr. shot him a glare. “I’m here to clean up your mess.”“I…”Sean’s heart sank. This was bad. If his grandfather knew, then it was all over.Meanwhile, the Xander family was still completely in the dark. What was this whole scene supposed to mean?Just then, Layla walked in, slightly late. She took one look around the room, quickly piecing things together, and let out a quiet sigh of relief.When Mr. Perry Sr. had called her and asked her to come to the hospital, she had worried somethi

Mr. Perry Sr.’s expression darkened. “What exactly are you trying to say?” “I’m just speaking as a father, trying to fight for what’s fair for my daughter.” Mr. Xander’s voice was firm and righteous, a stark contrast to the man who had been stunned just days ago when he first heard about Xena’s pregnancy. The Xander family stared at him in surprise. Chris furrowed his brows, already guessing what his father was getting at. The situation was an absolute mess, but the baby Xena was carrying was now the only remaining tie between the Xander and Perry families. Unlike Layla, who was unpredictable and independent, Mr. Xander saw this as a chance to secure that connection. “When Layla was engaged to Sean, he didn’t cherish her, and the engagement was called off. Now people laugh at my daughter whenever they talk about it. “And now Xena’s pregnant. If Sean doesn’t take responsibility, she’ll have lost a child before she’s even had her first real relationship. How is she s

Inside the consultation room, Xena held a pair of scissors to her neck, her eyes wild with desperation. “Don’t you dare touch my baby!” she screamed. “Where’s Sean? I want to see him! This is his child too. He can’t just abandon us like this!” The blade’s tip pressed into her skin, drawing a thin line of blood. Mrs. Xander forgot all about the pain in her swollen face. Her eyes reddened as she pleaded, “Xena, sweetheart, please—put the scissors down, okay? You’re scaring me.” Mr. Xander’s voice hardened. “Put it down! We can talk this through.” Shane stepped forward, voice tight with worry. “Xena, you’re risking your life for nothing. Don’t do this. Sean isn’t worth it.” But Xena wasn’t listening. Tears streamed down her face as she cried, “No! I want to see Sean!” As if on cue, Sean walked into the room. Her eyes lit up instantly. “Sean! I knew you wouldn’t just sit back and let them hurt our baby!” Sean’s jaw tightened. “I told you from the start to get

The door to the consultation room swung open, and Mr. Perry Sr. stepped out. His back was slightly hunched with age, but in that moment, he stood as solid and unyielding as a mountain, blocking Sean's path.“You’ve got some nerve showing up here,” he said coldly.“Grandpa, I know I messed up…” Sean’s voice cracked with anguish. “I never should’ve doubted you. Please—just let me see Layla.”“It’s not me stopping you. It’s Layla. She doesn’t want to see you.”Mr. Perry Sr.’s expression darkened, his tone laced with disappointment. “When I first discovered the truth, I told you to go and beg for her forgiveness. I thought you’d step up. But instead? You got someone else pregnant.”He slammed his cane against the tiled floor with a sharp crack. “You’ve gone from bad to worse, Sean. Because of you, I don’t even have the dignity to face her.”Mr. Perry Sr. turned away, his breath unsteady with suppressed rage.Sean panicked and reached out to grab his arm. “Grandpa, please! Don’t just

Layla stopped five steps away, her eyes sweeping across the group in front of her. Without exception, every face reflected guilt. The sight made her laugh. Her lips twisted into a mocking smile. “What’s with the crocodile tears?“If I die, shouldn’t you be happy? Isn’t that what you’ve all been waiting for?” Her voice turned sharper, each word laced with sarcasm. “When I’m gone, the Xander family will finally have one daughter, one precious little sister. Just one. Isn’t that exactly what you wanted?” “No…it’s not like that…” Mrs. Xander burst into tears and took a shaky step forward, only to be stopped by the bodyguards forming a wall in front of Layla. She stretched out a trembling hand toward her daughter. “Layla, please…come home with me, okay? I was wrong. I swear I’ll make it up to you.” Chris stepped beside his mother, his tone low and conciliatory. “Layla, no matter what’s happened, we’re still family. We should face this together.“The past is the past.
