All Chapters of Leaving You Bereft: Chapter 781 - Chapter 790

Landon heard the sound of someone crying miserably. He pushed the door open and froze.Blood was everywhere around Thalia's legs, soaking one side of her pants in a shocking red. And that blood was coming from between her thighs. He couldn't pretend he didn't know what it meant."Thalia." His voice shook as he called her name and moved toward her.He tried to lift her up, but she gently pushed him away. She curled up on the cold floor, hugging herself as if she were holding on to that tiny, undeveloped life, the one that was a part of her.His throat tightened.After a moment, worried about her condition, he scooped her up anyway. She struggled desperately in his arms, but her strength was no match for his. Trapped against his chest, she felt just like that night when she'd been trapped in the snow. Sobbing in grief, she sank her teeth into his neck as she let out raw, painful wails.He just let her bite him as she pleased. At that moment, he regretted everything.He shouldn't h

Landon stared at Thalia. The truth was, he was exhausted. In the past three days, he'd barely managed ten hours of sleep altogether. But the moment he wrapped up his work, he came straight to see her.Just then, his phone rang. It was Leslie calling. He picked up and said coldly, "Don't call me again before 8:00 am tomorrow."He hung up, tossed the phone aside, and walked over to stand by the floor-to-ceiling window.He was so restless that it almost outweighed the headaches from his toughest projects. Business was at least tangible, something he could track and control, but feelings weren't. Feelings slipped through one's hands, ruled by moods, dictated by joy, anger, sorrow, and desire.Staring out at the darkness, his mind kept circling back to that night. He told himself he hadn't been wrong.What went wrong was nothing but bad timing, a twist of fate.Over the years, he had regretted it more than once. He regretted his lack of patience, his impulsive choices. He had pushed h

The night grew deeper.Two hearts that had drifted apart were drawing close again.Landon's voice cracked with emotion as he whispered gently, "Don't cry, okay? Please don't cry, Thalia. We're still young, and we'll have kids someday."For some reason, he suddenly felt compelled to make a promise. When he spoke of having children, it was a promise of marriage. He wouldn't leave Thalia with a child out of wedlock. He wanted to marry her, bring her home, and care for her for the rest of their lives.If he couldn't let go, then he would care for her for a lifetime.The body in his arms became stiff.Thalia went still at his promise. Deep down, she had always known that while they were together, he wouldn't marry her, as their relationship had never been more than temporary.But now, he was talking about having children with her in the future.Instead of feeling happy, she was just stunned, which was why she didn't react at all.He didn't explain further and just held her tightly,

Willow held Thalia tight, her heart breaking. They weren't mother and daughter, but it felt just like it.…With Willow stepping in, Thalia was no longer a child without a mother, and she was no longer alone.She was obviously getting better and putting on some healthy weight. And she looked a lot more lively, too.Landon was deeply grateful to Willow because Thalia had really made a lot of progress. But after Thalia was discharged from the hospital, he still refused to let her move into the Ziegler residence. Instead, he wanted to take her to his private villa, just the two of them.Fortunately, Willow was busy preparing for Evelyn's wedding, so she let him have a little leeway.At the end of March, Thalia was discharged and moved into Landon's villa.Their relationship wasn't what it used to be, but a lot had been mended. It wasn't shattered anymore. Thalia didn't hide away and cry all the time. At home, she followed the cook around trying to learn recipes, though everything s

Landon walked through the courtyard.Night had settled, and the courtyard lay quiet and shadowed. Moonlight cast a silvery chill over the trees, distant and cold, while the villa radiated a cozy, amber glow.A household employee, Angeline White, walked over and asked in surprise, "Mr. Ziegler, where's your car?"Landon took off his jacket and said casually, "Outside the villa."Angeline didn't dare press further and only asked if he wanted a late-night snack.He thought for a moment before answering, "Make two plates of ravioli and bring them to the living room on the second floor."Angeline understood. Clearly, he hadn't eaten outside and wanted Thalia to join him.As someone experienced, she knew it better than anyone else. After all, Thalia was breathtakingly beautiful, like a delicate, blooming rose.Word was she'd grown up in a wealthy family and had known Landon since childhood, so how could they not have a special bond? They were set to marry by the end of the year.She
