All Chapters of Leaving You Bereft: Chapter 471 - Chapter 480

On the other side, the Shelton family had brought Seth to the hospital and was completing the admission procedures. By the time Declan and Emily rushed over, it was already done. Emily immediately threw a fit. "Where did you get the money? Where? Did you sell my villa?"Jeremy and Constance wanted to say something, but they held back. They'd bought the villa for Russell in preparation for his marriage, and he solely owned it. How was it Emily's villa now? More to the point, they sold it just so Seth could live longer, yet she wasn't willing to do it. It went to show just how selfish and heartless she really was. Jeremy and Constance deeply regretted their decision. They should never have let their hearts go soft back then. It was too late to feel this way by now. No matter what, Seth was the one who suffered.Right now, the Sheltons cared about nothing but using everything they had to treat Seth. If they would exhaust the entire family's wealth, only to fail at finding a cure

Dexter and Eleanor were surrounded by a gentle night breeze following the kiss, both wearing expressions that were difficult to interpret.Eleanor was trembling all over. Dexter leaned in for another kiss, but she braced her hands against his chest, stopping him. Though she couldn't voice a single word of refusal, her resistance was clear. Dexter's gaze grew even more profound as he asked, "What's the matter? Didn't it feel good just now? You clearly still have feelings for me.""You're imagining things," Eleanor replied, turning her face to the side. Though she wished to appear unaffected, intending to dismiss it as nothing more than a kiss, her accelerated heartbeat and hastened breathing revealed her genuine reaction, causing her considerable embarrassment.Dexter inched closer, locking eyes with her as he whispered, "Do you still remember our time together, back when we were at Nebula Group? You know, back when Julian had his incident, we were both alone in the office…"He wa

Sawyer looked directly at Eleanor, saying, "I just want you to have more choices in life, Eleanor—more than just the one you have right now."In that instant, the truth dawned on Eleanor, revealing the quiet compassion nestled in Sawyer's heart. Her heart churned with a complex blend of self-blame, a touch of comfort, and an elusive emotion that ultimately found expression in a hug. She seldom held Sawyer like this, recognizing he was no longer a child but an adolescent.Sawyer couldn't help but feel like he was enveloped in a gentle warmth as Eleanor pulled him into a tight embrace, much like the one Leah had given him when he was very young. It had been a long time since he felt such tender affection, though. His face was buried in Eleanor's embrace as he tried to speak, only to find himself unexpectedly choked with emotion.It was only after a long while that he finally whispered, "You should let me go to Eboris, Eleanor. I'll go and acquire the necessary skills, and when I retur

In the blink of an eye, the New Year quickly approached. Dexter made his way back to the Ziegler residence during New Year's Eve, noting that aside from him, the Zieglers had already assembled there.He had just taken his seat at the dining table when Julian started teasing him, saying, "Dexter has become so busy now that he has become the Hall family's live-in son-in-law. It's so much so that it's a rare sight to see him even during the New Year."Dexter picked up the glass of wine before him and drank it all in one go before turning to Willow, saying, "You should keep your husband in check, Willow."Willow smiled faintly and said, "I wouldn't dare to rein him in."Dexter concurred wholeheartedly, saying, "It is indeed true that Julian has always been a piece of work since he was born, with a mischievous streak unmatched by anyone! I've come to a clear understanding over the years that I was no match for him—but if you can't beat 'em, join 'em, right? It wasn't nearly as humiliati

Eleanor was panting heavily in the aftermath. It was impossible for a normal person like her to be devoid of such physical desires, but she still couldn't go through with it. It wasn't only because of Michael but also because of what had happened with Maisie back then. It was something that she couldn't move past, making even the idea of being his lover, like before, impossible. In the most crucial moment, her aversion became so overwhelming that it made it utterly impossible for her to get physical with him.Having that thought in mind, her desires gradually faded.Dexter didn't force Eleanor either. He had only made that bold request because he was drunk. He, in fact, couldn't have actually gone through with anything with her in the Hall residence; he still held a degree of respect for Michael, after all. He gently brought Eleanor into his arms, his hand lightly caressing her dark hair through the dressing gown. His voice, blending with the night, was incredibly raspy as he s
