All Chapters of Sorry, Too Late: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The line went dead. Stefan had no interest in saying another word. He hung up without hesitation.Hazel's heart dropped. Her expression shifted, dark clouds gathering and breaking across her face."What's wrong, Hazel?" Roxanne and Anya both turned to her at once.Hazel took a deep breath. "Found Evan. He's at my house. But something's happened at home."The moment she said it, everyone froze for a beat, then spoke over one another."Then, you'd better head back right now!""We'll go with you!"Zeke chimed in as well. He wanted to go back with Hazel for one reason above all else—to confirm whether Evan was really there."But Zeke, your condition…" Hazel said, moved yet worried."It's fine," Zeke replied with a smile. "Look at me. I'm still standing, aren't I?"After hesitating again and again, she finally nodded. "All right. Let's go together. I'll even take you to meet my parents."A faint, inexplicable smile appeared on her face.What none of them could have imagined was

"Just because I haven't cured him yet doesn't mean I can't later," Evan said calmly.He hadn't fully mastered the Ninefold Arcane Arts yet, but once he did, this would be nothing."Life and death, sickness and old age—these are all part of fate. I've walked through the gates of death myself. What's there to fear?" the Iron Dragon said with a chuckle. There was no trace of fear on his face."Compared to that, there's something far more important I need to tell you, Sylvie." His gaze, however, lingered on Evan.Evan felt uneasy. It seemed like the Iron Dragon had other intentions, especially when he ordered everyone out of the room, leaving only Sylvie and him behind.The feeling only grew stranger."Grandpa, is there something you want to tell me?"Sylvie was sharp; she could tell at once that her grandfather had something on his mind.The Iron Dragon sighed, momentarily at a loss for words. "Sylvie, you once suffered from frost poison and weren't expected to live past twenty-on

"Dad, Mom! Evan's room is empty! Did he move out?" Hazel's voice trembled as she called for Stefan and Cynthia.It wasn't just Hazel—Roxanne and Anya stared at the bare room, their hearts sinking with a heavy thud.Was Evan gone? Did he really leave?All three of them felt it instinctively: this time was different. Evan's departure wasn't like before.A tight, suffocating pressure gripped their chests.Even Zeke, standing silently by the door, was stunned into speechlessness. But in the next moment, a barely noticeable, cruel smile flickered across his face.Inside, he was ecstatic. 'So, Evan has really left.'His guess was right—Evan had been completely broken by the three heiresses.And now, his plan was about to succeed. Once he found another person with the same blood type, he could finally kill Evan.Hazel's questions twisted Stefan and Cynthia's insides—they wanted to answer, but couldn't, and it made the helplessness burn all the more. It was unbearable.Evan had left,

Perhaps sensing the hostility on Sylvie's face, Aria glanced at her once and chose to ignore it.She turned back to Evan and spoke calmly, as if the tension in the place didn't exist."Mr. Norwood, the Iron Dragon spent his life on the battlefield and founded seven elite special units. Dragon's Breath is one of them. But as missions increased and casualties mounted, the position of chief military physician has remained vacant. I would like to formally invite you to take that role."When she finished, she bent at the waist in a deep, formal bow."Well…" Evan hesitated.He had just cut ties with the Solberg family and hadn't yet thought about where to go next.Dragon's Breath was undoubtedly a powerful backer, but military discipline was ironclad. He wasn't sure he could adapt. More importantly, the military was full of watchful eyes. If the secret of his Ninefold Arcane Arts were exposed, the consequences would be disastrous."Aria, give it up. Evan isn't going." Sylvie stepped

As expected, Sylvie found Evan at Port Silver.The winds were fierce, making Evan's clothes snap in the air. However, his silhouette appeared even more frail and thin."Evan."Sylvie softly called out to him as she walked over to stand beside him, staring out at the water with him.Evan was surprised. "Ms. Stanton, how did you find me?"She chuckled, gracefully tucking a lock of hair behind her ear. "If I truly wish to, I will always find what I want. That's just the kind of magic I have."In reality, she had secretly investigated Evan. Port Silver was where Hazel and the others rescued him.Hence, this port was special to him. Every time he felt confused and lost, he could be found there.It was the first time he had ever been found at the port, though. An unfamiliar feeling rose in him at that thought."It's nothing much," Sylvie abruptly stated."What?" Evan's mind was blank in shock."Compared to death, everything else is no big deal. We meet many people in our lives. Ca
