The three of them then set off to return to Detroit. Silvia offered to drive, and Ryan did not object. Autumn fell asleep on the safety seat as soon as she got into the car. Silvia focused on driving while Ryan closed his eyes and meditated. He recalled the scenes in his memory about how Nora and Julian, who seemed normal at the time, suddenly seemed to have acted abnormally now. The first time was when he saw Nora’s watch at Julian’s house. At the time, Julian explained that he must have seen it wrongly, and he really thought that was the case because he was so depressed at the time. Julian also took the initiative to ask Nora to join Maton Group for an internship and so forth.It seemed that they had already gotten together when Nora graduated last year, so they must have been in a relationship for a whole year now. He would not have been so angry if their relationship was not that deep, and they had broken up after just dating for a few days. However, it had been a year.R
“Mm-hmm, I’m feeling better.”She then laughed again and said, “It’s not a big deal, right? It’s just a breakup. I won’t die from this.”Rowan was initially prepared to comfort her, but he did not expect for her to look so free and relieved. He was suddenly at a loss for words and could only look at her with a gloomy expression.Sometimes, one would appear more indifferent the deeper the injury was. The pain could be so extreme that one could no longer feel the pain.Nora noticed the worry in Rowan’s eyes and smiled again. “You really don’t have to worry about me. I’m fine.”She was really fine. She felt much better after crying just now. She had no complaints or hate because she was the one who had started this emotional game. If she hadn’t gone to him and asked him to teach her how to be in a relationship, nothing would have happened between them later, and the scenario today where he asked for a breakup would not have happened.This was all her fault, wasn’t it? She deserved i
“She might be pregnant?”Ryan’s voice was shaky and high-pitched because he was so shocked. Julian, who had already walked several steps ahead, also turned around in shock and stared at Ryan blankly when he heard his words. Ryan locked his brows in a tight frown. “I’ll be there right away.”After Julian came to his senses, he quickly walked toward Ryan, who was approaching him, and stopped him. “How is she doing now?”He asked urgently with a quivering voice, “What was it about the hospital and someone being pregnant?”Julian was a little confused by what Ryan had said over the phone just now. He was sure that he had heard the word ‘pregnant’, but after the initial shock, he suddenly had an inexplicable feeling. Ryan looked at Julian with an expression that was filled with hatred and resentment. He clenched his teeth and asked coldly, “What does it have to do with you?”Ryan was also under tremendous pressure about the fact that Nora might be pregnant, and he wanted to rip J
Nora even teased Rowan before they left the house, “Since you have women’s pajamas here, you should also have some women’s coats and clothes here. Why do I have to wear such a big shirt? It’s so ugly!”Rowan was slightly embarrassed, but he also felt distressed. He would rather she cried and made a fuss than act as if nothing had happened and even tease him. He knew that she was using this method to hide her pain. He glanced at her and drove her to the hospital directly without saying anything.After arriving at the hospital, Rowan stepped aside and called Ryan to ask him to come to the hospital when Nora went to take a blood test. He also mentioned his suspicion that Nora might be pregnant. Ryan’s tone carried a murderous aura, and he was gnashing his teeth, as if he wanted to kill someone.Nora had undergone a series of examinations by the time Ryan arrived at the hospital. Rowan asked the hospital to check Nora into a ward so that she could rest. Nora fell asleep as soon as h
Julian stood in the cool night after coming out of the hospital. He suddenly felt very lonely and desolate. He always felt very relieved every time he broke up with a woman in the past, but why did he feel as if he had lost the whole world this time?Ryan came back from the psychiatric department and used silence to express the accuracy of what the doctor in charge of the examinations had said. The two of them looked at Nora, who was on the hospital bed, at the same time. She was sleeping peacefully, but the more peaceful she looked, the more pain she was enduring. Rowan looked away, then he turned to Ryan and said, “My mother is not in good health, so I’ll be going back to the United States in a few days. She asked me to take her with me.”Ryan was expressionless. After a while, he answered, “Okay.”Rowan initially thought that Ryan would be worried. After all, he had once brought danger to the Pierces, so he did not expect Ryan to leave Nora in his hands so easily. He felt a
Nora’s health was not a serious issue, so she could be discharged directly. Rowan did not mention anything about her anorexia. Rowan had discussed this matter with Ryan, and they decided to keep this secret from her. Thus, he mentioned eating breakfast in a very natural way.Nora initially felt repulsed when she heard about food, but she suddenly felt very distressed when she heard Rowan saying that her parents were waiting for her at home. She was only going through a breakup, but she made her whole family worry about her, especially Rowan, who even stayed with her overnight in the hospital. She was really too selfish and only thought about herself being sad; she did not expect that her sadness would make so many people who cared about her feel sad too. Hence, she suppressed the rejection in her heart and nodded at Rowan. “Okay.”Rowan felt a little surprised when he saw her reaction. He quickly stepped forward with the breakfast he bought, then he pulled up the small dining table
Ophelia stood up and followed Greg in, leaving Ryan’s family of three in the living room. Silvia sighed and said, “I’ll go and make her something to eat.”Silvia then went to the kitchen. She had learned of Nora’s anorexia from Ryan, so she figured that she should prepare something delicious for her because she had pretty good cooking skills. She hoped that Nora would be able to eat a little, and it would be great if she could have a few bites. Nora followed Greg into the bedroom, whereupon he took a bank card out of his pocket and handed it to her as he said, “This is the money I’ve prepared for you to go abroad. Go without looking back.”Nora was startled for a moment, then she looked down at the bank card. Tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her vision.Ophelia looked away. Nora was speechless, and tears streamed down her face as she said, “I’m sorry, Dad, Mom, for making you worry.”‘What am I doing? It’s just a breakup, but I’ve caused the whole family to be in chaos.’ She
Instead of letting go, Yvonne lifted his shirt and explored his abdominal muscles boldly with her delicate hand before she slowly went all the way down.Nathan’s body tensed up, and she said in a soft and gentle voice, “I only asked you to leave Maton Group to test you.”Nathan was startled for a moment. He could not bear to break up with her either, so he instinctively froze as he wanted to continue listening to her explanation after she said those words. Yvonne seized the opportunity to hug his waist and turned to face him. She hugged his neck and used her fingers to tease him under his shirt as she opened her red lips in front of him and said, “Julian has always treated you so kindly, so you wouldn't be worthy of me if you gave up on him so easily just to be with me. If you can give up on someone so important at will, you might abandon me for other interests in the future.”Nathan was confused by her explanation. What’s more, her hands were running wildly over his body, so his
