Alle Kapitel von A Regret too Late: Kapitel 621 – Kapitel 630

After blaming himself, Willow's eyes turned cold and determined. "But don't worry. Even if it costs me my life, I won't let them hurt you again."Maria lightly held his wrist, her voice calm. "Don't act on impulse. It's not time yet."He walked to the door of the ward and spoke to the two personal bodyguards outside, his tone firm, enunciating each word. "Listen. No matter what happens out there, you're not to allow anyone or anything to come inside!"Down below, the out-of-control crowd had already broken through barrier after barrier and poured onto the VIP floor where Maria was.At the end of the hallway, a full team of professional security in black suits, led by Richard, had linked hands to form an unbreakable human wall, blocking them outside the secure door.A young woman, barely in her twenties, had been squeezed to the very front. Through that human wall, she shouted toward the tightly shut door at the end of the corridor using all her strength, her voice hoarse and teari

At midnight, the ICU floor was dead silent.The corridor's cold white lights left nowhere to hide as they shone. The air smelled of disinfectant. Only a few bodyguards in black suits stood at the door of Wilson's ICU room like silent stone statues, occasionally murmuring a few words to kill the long, boring night.A rhythmic click of high heels abruptly broke the silence.Eleanor walked over from the elevators, cradling an elegant thermos. Her face held just the right amount of worry and concern.She stopped in front of the four bodyguards."Thank you for all your hard work," Eleanor said, her voice soft as water, enough to melt even a stone-hearted man for just a little. "Richard... He's tied up with Maria's situation and can't get away. He was worried you'd be cold and hungry on night duty, so he asked me to bring some late-night snacks over and to check on everyone."As she spoke, she handed over the thermos, still giving off the smell of food.The bodyguards, who had already

After erasing every trace he had left in the hospital, Melvin exited the building like an actor leaving the stage. Quiet, clean, and without a shadow trailing behind him as he removed himself from the sinful hospital.He returned to his hidden safehouse.The moment he opened the door, the rich scent of red wine enveloped him.Eleanor was already waiting, draped in a silk nightgown, as she lay elegantly on the couch. A glass of Bordeaux swirled lazily between her fingers. She looked like a queen awaiting her victorious general to return from the fields of war.The instant she saw him, she stood up sharply, anticipation burning in her eyes.Melvin raised his hand and made an "okay" gesture. His expression brimmed with unrestrained triumph and cruelty."It's done," he said, voice low and hoarse with excitement. "The old man…is now nothing but a cold corpse."Eleanor finally let out the breath she'd been holding after hearing that. Her face blossomed into a bright, venomous smile. S

Outside the hospital, the fans who had been lighting candles and quietly praying for Maria saw the news that Wilson was dead. The last thread of hope in them snapped.One former superfan even started a livestream on the spot. She took every signed CD and poster she had collected over the years and tossed them into the brazier at her feet, one by one. As she burned them, she cried into the camera, tears rolling down her cheeks. "I've loved the wrong person! My youth has been wasted! Maria, you liar!"In silence, they gathered up the flowers and the cards they had laid out on the ground, one by one. They turned and, without hesitation, threw them all into the reeking garbage bin nearby."I never thought she was that kind of person... We were blind.""I'm done! From now on, I'll never support Linda again."-Back in the command center, Richard and Willow watched it all in silence.Willow pointed at a vicious comment on the screen, one calling Jonathan a mistress's illegitimate so

Eleanor's voice came through the receiver, clear in the quiet room as Melvin aimed the phone at Maria, who was lying in the hospital bed in a fake coma.Eleanor picked up another phone, deliberately pulled up a photo of her and Richard having an intimate dinner. She waved it in front of the camera, right in front of Maria's eyes."See this, Maria? This is what Richard looks like now. He does whatever I say, and he doesn't dare contradict me. As for you, you can only lie here like a piece of trash and watch me enjoy everything that should have been yours."A sick, vicious light flickered in her eyes. Speaking into the phone, she slowly laid out her final, cruel plan to Melvin. "Remember what we used on Wilson? Yes, that one. This time, I'm using the same method on Maria. I'm going to inject her with that same neurotoxin that ensures one can neither live nor die. I want her to rot slowly, little by little, in the worst pain imaginable."She paused before going on, her voice was thi
