The nurse was frightened by Mable's fierce demeanor, trembling as she spoke, "Mrs. Fowler, please calm down. Master Blair has passed away. Acting like this won't bring him peace."Mable interrupted sharply. "Shut up! Blair isn't dead! He's still alive, right here! You all—""Mable?"A familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind.Mable turned around and saw Kyle and Wilbur standing behind her.Kyle had learned that Blair had left the hospital again tonight. Although nothing had happened, his bodyguards reported that he returned with a terrible expression, smashing things in the ward out of anger. Kyle was worried, so he came to the hospital to check.As expected, Blair's situation tonight was related to Mable.After Kyle finished checking on Blair, he coincidentally met Wilbur, who was about to leave. So, they went downstairs together.Unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they heard Mable's voice.Kyle thought he had misheard, but when he looked up, it w
The balcony on the top floor offered a good view, but there was not much to see at night in the suburbs, just darkness stretching out. The late autumn night breeze carried a chill.Blair sat in his wheelchair, gazing at the pitch-black night sky, his mind filled with intimate pictures of Mable and Howard together. No man could stay calm after seeing the woman he deeply loved with someone else. He was no exception.Blair clenched his fists tightly, veins bulging on his hand, emanating a violent aura. He could not imagine what he would do if Mable truly fell for someone else. What could he do? All he knew was that he would not let her go, even if it meant she would end up hating him. He was not afraid of the consequences.Lost in thought, footsteps suddenly approached behind him. Blair narrowed his eyes dangerously, thinking it might be a nurse or a bodyguard checking on him."Get lost!" he growled lowly. His emotions were unstable, and he did not want anyone to distu
Blair's heart ached when watching Mable’s tears streaming down her face. Limping over to her, he glanced at the shattered glass. He was relieved that the cup had landed near her feet. If it had hit her head, he would have regretted it deeply."Mabes, I'm sorry." Blair started, his voice catching in his throat as he reached out to wipe her tears. Before he could do so, Mable threw her arms around him tightly."Blair.." Mable clung to Blair, crying as if her heart were breaking. It seemed she was trying to merge herself into his very being, never to be separated again. No one could tear them apart."Mabes, Mabes…" Blair held Mable tightly, burying his head in her neck. His tears fell onto her skin.Mable wanted to scold him, demanding why he had deceived her, and even punch him angrily. However, holding onto her beloved, she felt a profound sense of preciousness. She dared not let go, fearing that he might vanish if she did, just like her dream when she woke up, finding noth
Mable gently touched the wound on Blair's chest, recalling the moment he was shot and fell to the ground, her heart aching. "You definitely didn't listen to the doctor and take proper care of your injuries." Mable's voice trembled with sadness, unable to contain her sorrow.She vaguely seemed to see him when she was drunk at home last time. When she woke up, Mable thought it was just a drunken hallucination. It must have been real when she recalled it now. He came back to the villa to see her.Seeing Mable's face filled with concern, Blair held her hand and spoke softly, "The bullet in the gun was a blank round with fragile bullets. It's not as powerful. Mabes, you don't need to worry."That was also the key point that allowed him to survive after being shot in the heart.Mable knew that blank rounds were less potent than real bullets, but with the gun pointed at his heart at such close range, even a blank round was enough to be fatal.Mable looked at the wound on Blair's righ
She looked at Blair earnestly. "Whatever his next plan is, it's none of your concern. Your priority now is to rest and recuperate. I'll inform Amos and Solomon that until you're fully recovered, they're not allowed to bother you with these matters. They can talk to me if there's anything, I'll handle it."Seeing Mable's serious expression, Blair did not object. He leaned in and rubbed his head against her shoulder. "Okay, I'll listen to the lady."After a pause, Blair raised his head with an equally profound expression. "Mabes, don't you think you owe me an explanation about your relationship with Howard? And what's with the rush to remarry?"Mable hesitated.She thought Blair had forgotten about it.Mable stood up. "We'll talk about it tomorrow. It's late now, and you need to rest."He was still a patient, and ensuring he got enough sleep and did not stay up late was crucial.Blair looked helplessly at Mable. He was about to say something when she helped and guided him back to
The next day, Solomon and Tracey arrived at the hospital before dawn.At the door of the ward, they hesitated outside, not daring to enter.Solomon learned about what happened last night from the bodyguard at the door, then finally could not help but ask, “How are Master Blair and Mable’s moods? Did they quarrel?”“Uh...”The guard had been standing outside. How would he know about their moods?As for whether they quarreled...“I don’t know if Master Blair and Madam quarreled, but... Madam cried, very sadly too.”They could even hear her crying from outside.Tracey and Solomon exchanged a glance, both having vague speculations.“Mabes probably cried because she was too emotional after seeing Blair alive...” Tracey guessed. Solomon cupped his chin and added, “Or she might have cried from anger because she found out she was deceived by Master Blair.”Tracey fell silent.She leaned against the door and quietly observed the scene inside the ward through the glass window on the
Mable thought it was the doctor coming for his rounds, but to her surprise, Solomon and Tracey entered.Tracey stood at the door, not daring to come in as she observed Blair and Mable’s expressions. “Mabes, Blair, good morning.”Blair glanced at Tracey and nodded.“Tracey, could you help buy breakfast?” Mable looked at her and asked.Solomon quickly came in with the breakfast he had just bought. “Already done. It’s a nutritious breakfast, too!”“Thank you.”Solomon placed the breakfast down and stood to the side with Tracey. They both looked like two students waiting to be punished for doing something wrong.Blair sat in a wheelchair and looked at them. “Do you need something else?”Solomon and Tracey exchanged glances and shook their heads in unison. “Not really.”Blair raised his brows. “Then why are you still here?”“Don’t you blame us for telling Mabes you’re still alive?” Tracey asked cautiously. To which Solomon immediately said, “It’s not ‘us’. It’s just you, Tracey. I
Eugenie knew that Blair had something to discuss with her, so she came to the hospital early in the morning.Unexpectedly, when she arrived at Blair’s ward, she saw Mable, whom she had not seen for a long time.Tracey looked at the shocked Eugenie and explained, “Mabes knows everything now...”Eugenie smiled. “I see.”Mable looked at Blair unhappily and asked, “Was I the only one who didn’t know you were still alive?”She was the person closest to him, yet he kept it from her...It would be a lie to say that she was not angry.Blair held her hand. “Not many know. I needed to ask Eugenie for help to remove the Necro Poison from you, so I couldn’t hide it from her.”Mable’s heart skipped a beat when she heard him say that.She knew the method to remove the Necro Poison. It was to extract the male base from Blair’s body...However, if the male base had been extracted, Blair would not live much longer.“Blair, if I have to choose between removing the Necro Poison and your life,
