I die in the corridor of the private hospital my husband established after being forced to give my heart to his true love. Before my death, my six-year-old son tearfully begs him to save me thrice. The first time, he holds my husband's hand and says I'm coughing up blood. My husband sneers. "Looks like she's learned tricks—she knows how to teach children to lie now." Then, he has his bodyguards kick my son out of the ward. The second time, my son grabs his sleeve and says I'm in so much pain that I'm incoherent. My husband frowns. "It's just a heart transplant. The doctor said she won't die." The bodyguards step forward and drag my son out of the ward again. The third time, my son grovels at my husband's feet and grabs his pants, sobbing and saying that I'm already unconscious. My husband is infuriated. He grabs my son by the neck and throws him out of the ward. "I told you Nadia won't die! I'll throw her and you out of the hospital if you come here and disturb Ruby's rest again!" My son gives his most previous item—a guardian angel pendant—to a nurse to save me. The nurse accepts it and arranges for me to be admitted to the last available ward in the hospital. However, Ruby Sharpe has someone stand before it with her pet dog. She says, "Sorry, kiddo. Your father's worried I'll be bored without my dog, so this ward has been set aside for my dog to stay in."

On His Knees Chapter 8
"Then get on your knees and ask for Micah's forgiveness," Walter commanded.Ruby stared at him, stunned, but the sharp pain in her scalp gave her little choice. "Fine. I'll kneel."She sank to her knees, begging Micah over and over. "Micah, I was wrong. Please forgive me. I'll never do it again."Every word was raw with pain.I watched, cold and unmoved. It brought me no satisfaction. Even if she begged until her voice gave out, it wouldn't fix what she'd done to Micah.Then, a doctor mustered his courage and spoke up. "Mr. Shepherd, I need to report something!"The sudden declaration made everyone turn at once, Ruby most of all. A sharp wave of dread coursed through her.Walter's eyes narrowed, his voice icy. "Go ahead."The doctor swallowed hard, his words tumbling out. "I need to report our department head, George Wade, for taking bribes, conspiring with patients to falsify medical records, and..."His gaze flicked to Micah on the bed, a flicker of pity in his expression.
On His Knees Chapter 7
My heart lurched. My spirit lingered by the ICU doors, my whole body shaking.What was Ruby up to? Was she going to hurt Micah again? No, she couldn't, not after everything he'd been through. I wouldn't let her lay a finger on him!The faint smirk on Ruby's face made me want to rip her to pieces.She couldn't see me. With a quick excuse, she waved the nurse away. Then, she eased the door open without making a single sound. Passing right through my ghostly form, Ruby stepped inside, slow and deliberate.She stopped beside Micah's bed, her lips twisting into a smirk. Her manicured nails skimmed his forehead, traced his eyes and mouth, then settled on his most vulnerable spot—his throat."Do you think Nadia would hate me if she saw you like this?"She laughed, her eyes glinting with malice."Too bad your mother was so weak. All I did was have someone take out her heart and put it back, and she couldn't handle it. Pathetic, really."A jolt of terror shot through me. What was she sa
On His Knees Chapter 6
The swelling on Micah's face had gone down a little, and the nurse had cleaned the blood from his lips. However, that only made his injuries clearer, especially the handprint.It was clear that someone had struck him hard.Walter stood motionless. He stared at Micah, his hands balled into fists.Ruby's voice trembled as she spoke. "Walter?"She'd gotten the news from the hospital earlier that morning. A woman's body had been found in the hallway with a six-year-old child at her side.Ruby had been putting on makeup when she heard the news. Her grip tightened on her lipstick, crushing it until it broke in two.She knew Walter very well after spending years by his side. She knew how impossible that man could be. He was always fixated on what he couldn't have. Once, that person had been her. But now…A chill of dread coiled in her chest.So when Ruby learned that Walter was looking for her, she carefully applied a frail, sickly makeup look, even layering foundation over her lips u
On His Knees Chapter 5
"N-Nadia…" Walter whispered my name before shoving through the crowd and rushing to my hospital bed.His chest tightened at the sight of my pale, stiff, lifeless body. With trembling hands, he reached out to feel for a breath but brushed Micah's bruised face instead. Without thinking, he pulled Micah closer. His eyes turned bloodshot.He spun toward the onlookers and yelled, "Get a doctor! Where's the doctor?"The crowd murmured.Moments later, several doctors and nurses stepped forward, leading Walter away to a hospital ward. He gently placed Micah's unconscious body onto the hospital bed.As I floated nearby, the tension inside me finally eased. Seeing Walter's frantic expression, I nearly laughed.Hadn't he brought this on himself? Just last night, he could have saved Micah.A dull pain throbbed in my chest as though something heavy were pressing against it. I bent down and brushed a soft kiss against Micah's forehead, my tears dripping onto his face.Micah must have sensed
On His Knees Chapter 4
Ruby, as if she had finally worn herself out, gestured for the bodyguards to let Micah go. She raised her foot and brought it down hard on his bruised face, her expression feigning pity.She scornfully remarked, "See? Even your father didn't want you. How tragic."The elevator doors slowly slid shut. Only Micah remained, his small frame curled tight against the cold tile floor.I dropped to my knees beside him, knowing that it was hopeless but still trying to lift him anyway. It was completely useless.The hospital doors were already closed. No one would dare help Micah without Walter's permission.The blood at the corner of Micah's lips dried. His eyelids fluttered weakly, but he couldn't open them. Only the plastic-covered blanket in his arms made a soft, crinkling sound.The guardian angel pendant he always wore around his neck was gone, lost somewhere. Only a pale line remained where the chain had rested, the last trace that someone had once loved him.I didn't know how long
On His Knees Chapter 3
Micah's arm jerked uncontrollably, but he refused to cry. He raised his head, his swollen eyes glaring at Ruby, who stood flawless and composed.He yelled indignantly, "My mom isn't disgusting! She's the best mom in the world. You're a horrible person. Don't you dare hurt her!"Then, he bit down hard on Ruby, hoping to make her retreat.Ruby, already enraged, snapped. She drove her stiletto heel into Micah's stomach."You wretched brat!" she barked.I screamed and lunged forward, trying to protect Micah. But he phased through my ghostly form and crashed against the wall, blood spurting from his mouth. Still, he wouldn't cry.His hand fumbled weakly across the floor. "T-The blanket… Mom needs the blanket…"Ruby wasn't finished. She set her dog down and strode over, striking Micah across the face."Ruby?"Walter's voice, full of shock, froze everyone in place.Micah's hollow eyes suddenly brightened, his cracked lips barely forming the word. "Dad…"Walter took a step forward,
On His Knees Chapter 2
The young couple in the hospital room was surprised.The man gently patted the dust off Micah's clothes and kindly asked, "Do you need anything, young one? Where's your mother?"Micah scratched his palm nervously before gathering his courage to say, "Sir, my mom's sick, and she's very cold. Could you lend us a blanket? I'll trade you my guardian angel pendant for it. Please, will you help her?"After a slight hesitation, the man reached into the cabinet, retrieved a new blanket still sealed in plastic, and passed it to Micah. "Here, take this. I hope your mother recovers soon."The stranger's kindness left Micah speechless. Perhaps it was all the hardships he'd been through that night. He clutched the blanket tightly, murmuring thank you over and over."Thank you, sir. Thank you, ma'am. Thank you both."The man waved his hand to stop him. "Don't mention it. We didn't buy this blanket. The founder of this hospital, Mr. Shepherd, provided this. He gave one to every patient's family
On His Knees Chapter 1
They moved my hospital bed into the hallway to make space for Ruby Sharpe's dog in the last available hospital room.When the door closed, my son, Micah, still held the guardian angel pendant he had just taken off. His fists, now slightly bruised, kept pounding against the door."Ms. Sharpe, please give my mom her room back! Ms. Sharpe, I'm begging you. Open the door!"Micah's young voice carried through the hallway, but Ruby was absorbed in playing with her dog inside the room. The louder he cried, the more she seemed to enjoy it."Good dog. We don't bother with filthy things," she said.Micah's voice turned rough and raw. The same boy who used to beg me to hold him over a scraped knee now wiped the blood from his fists with his shirt.Tears filled his eyes as he spat, "You're horrible! I gave up my guardian angel pendant just to get this hospital room. You don't get to keep your dog in there! You monster!"His voice was so strained it was hard to make out, each word shaking wi
