Chapter 2113

Author: Inked Snow
When Sean had left the house ten minutes earlier, Nikki had been perfectly fine, without even a single hint of an impending attack.

Not only that, but her grip on his arm felt strong and sturdy.

From his experience, Nikki would always have warning signs before she had an attack, and her attacks had never come out of the blue.

Sean pursed his lips and listened carefully for a moment. Suddenly, he could hear a hint of Nikki forcing herself to sound weaker than she actually was.

He knew immediately what Nikki was up to, so he sighed and replied, "Nikki, it's not good to lie to other people."

Nikki said weakly, "Sean, I'm telling the truth. I need to go to the hospital… Can you…"

Seeing that she was still pretending, Sean lost all of his patience. "Nikki, I wouldn't mind you acting like this usually, but Ms. Craig's situation is an emergency! You can't possibly want her to die just because you think she's a bad person, right?"

As he said this, Sean searched the road for any signs of

    When Sean finally reached the hospital, Bonnie's entire body had gone limp."She probably wouldn't have survived if you had arrived even a minute later," said the doctor. After checking Bonnie to make sure she was still breathing, he could not help lifting his head to shoot Sean an accusing look. "What kind of boyfriend are you? How can you let her be locked in a car in the heat of the summer?"If she dies today, you'll become a murderer!"Sean bit his lip nervously when he heard this. "Doctor, I'm not…""You're not what? Not a murderer?" The doctor shot him a cold glare. "If anything happens to her, you're a murderer, and there's no way you're getting out of this!"Then, he tossed a prescription slip to Sean and barked, "Go pay this at the counter!"Sean paused for a moment, then quickly ran off, knowing that he had no time to waste.He did not even think twice before he took out his personal savings card, which he usually reserved for paying Nikki's medical bills, and headed t

    Sean forced himself to stay calm and dialed the number once more.Again, no answer.Every single note of the dial tone felt like a splash of kerosene in Sean's burning heart.Could…something have happened to Nikki?Sean called the same number over and over.After a long internal battle, he finally let out an exhale and stood up.With Bonnie wheeled into the operation room, the doctors would still save her even if he was not around, but Nikki…Sean could not stop worrying about her now that he had no news about her.What if he had been wrong? What if Nikki had been telling the truth? What if the man had not managed to bring her to the hospital in time…Sean could feel his skin crawl at these thoughts.Finally, he gave in to his worry and stood up, intending to return home and find Nikki."Hey, where do you think you're going?" Sean had taken just a few steps when the doctor who reprimanded him earlier emerged from the operation room.When he saw Sean leaving, he furrowed his

    Sean's entire body was frozen in shock when he heard Nikki's sobs.He felt his entire body go stiff, unable to breathe or even move.His brain seemed to have lost its ability to think.Nikki's voice sounded far away as she cried, "Sean, I don't want to live anymore! I just turned nineteen, and I still have a long life ahead of me, but I didn't manage to save my first time for the man I truly love. I…"Her voice was almost unintelligible as she sobbed, "What should I do now… Sean, are you coming home to see me one last time?"I don't have anything worth holding onto in this world. The only person I want to see before I die is you, so please come home. I'm going to die soon…"Sean bit his lip and tried to suppress the surge of emotions in his mind. "Nikki...don't…don't kid about things like this."Did she not say she had an attack while she was at home? How… How did everything end up like this? How could she have been raped?"Sean…" Nikki let out a bitter chuckle. "I can't believ

    The doctor lifted his head to glance at Bonnie. "You should get a friend to go with you."Bonnie nodded and was about to say something when her phone, which was charging next to her bed, rang.She quickly picked up the call. "Luna?""What's wrong, Bonnie?" Luna's voice was riddled with concern. "Joshua, Nigel, and I were on a video call with Nellie and Nigel in the bedroom, and we both left our phones in the study. We were so engrossed in our call that none of us heard you call. Is…something wrong?"Bonnie rubbed her brows in frustration.She should have known.The fact that neither Joshua nor Luna could be reached meant that they were probably doing something together, but she never thought of the possibility of them being on a family video call together."It's settled now." Bonnie sighed. "Nothing much, just that I almost died, that's all."Luna let out a gasp, then asked, "What happened? Did my brother do something bad to you? When you told me about how nervous you were to m

    Nikki clutched the rope tightly, refusing to let go, and struggled against Sean's grip. "You're a liar! I don't matter to you at all!"My life is worth even less than your precious Ms. Craig's finger!"Sean furrowed his brows, summoning all the strength in his body to pull Nikki down. Finally, the rope snapped, and Nikki's body landed against his."When have I ever told you you don't matter? When had I ever told you that your life is worth even less than Ms. Craig's finger?"Nikki, we grew up together, and even though we're not real siblings, you're like a sister to me! Don't say things like these in the future anymore, and don't stay mad at me, okay?"Tears slid down Nikki's cheeks when she heard this.She wrapped her arms around Sean's shoulders and sobbed, "But Sean, you already know that…"I've never been content with being your little sister. I—""That's enough," Sean stopped her short.He held her close to his body and turned to gaze at the mess around him.He could tel

    It was all his fault!The car soon arrived at the hospital.After carrying Nikki into the hospital, Sean quickly explained what had happened to the doctors and nurses, who proceeded to wheel her away for a series of checkups, looking sorry for her.However, since the checkups Nikki had to undergo were all private, Sean was not allowed to go with her, so he had to wait in the hospital lobby.As he waited, he kept on calling the number.There was still no answer.Just as Sean was about to lose his patience, a call came in.Thinking that it was the bastard who sexually assaulted Nikki, Sean picked up the call and yelled without even checking to see who it was, "What the fuck is wrong with you, Terry Simmons? How can you do this to my sister when Boss asked you to help send her to the hospital?"Where the fuck are you, anyway? Don't you dare hide because I will find you!"Finally, a woman's voice rang out weakly from the other end of the line, "Um…Sean? This is Luna. Where are you

    For a split second, Bonnie did not know how to answer.Sean could not help sighing when he saw how lost she had looked. "You shouldn't blame yourself. The person who harmed Nikki was that bastard, and it had nothing to do with you at all."If anyone were to take responsibility for what happened, that person should be me."Sean placed his hand on his forehead, obscuring his entire face, and said in a hoarse voice, "Nikki had already told me about her impending attack when I left the house, but I hadn't taken her seriously. I thought she had just said that to stop me from coming to save you, but I should have believed her, or at least…"I should've brought her with me when I came to help you. That way, not only would she have been safe, but I would've been able to help you at the same time…"It's all my fault. I should've been smarter about this, and if I had, Nikki wouldn't have gotten hurt…"His voice was beginning to sound choked, but Bonnie could not tell if he was crying.How

    "The man who raped your sister is named Terry Simmons, right?" Luke, who had been standing behind Gwen in silence, asked suddenly.Sean paused for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, his name is Terry Simmons. He's a man I worked with when I was still at the factory…""I've already caught him." Luke shot him an impassive glance and continued in a calm tone, as though he was discussing what to eat for dinner, "What do you plan to do to him? Do you want me to cut off his leg or arm? Or…perhaps dispose of the thing he used to sexually assault your sister with?"He curled his lips into a smirk and added, "You don't even have to do this yourself; my men will help you take care of it."Sean's entire body stiffened when he heard this.He stared at Luke dazedly, his face debossed with disbelief.He had never seen this man before, nor did he know who this person was, but from the way he looked and the things he had…It sent chills down his spine.He was suggesting cutting off Terry's leg or ar

    At that, he looked at Gwen. "Actually…"Steven found himself unable to finish his sentence. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled. "Forget about it.""Steven…" Gwen looked at him, and her tears fell.Her heart was not made of stone. How could she not know Steven's feelings toward her?She was silent for a long while. In the end, she stood up and slowly walked over to Steven with arms opened wide. "Give me a hug."Steven hesitated for a while, but he still stood up.They hugged."Gwen." Steven hugged her thin figure. "I have to meet you earlier in the next life so I can compete fairly with my brother."Gwen nodded with tears streaming down her face. "Okay."They thus hugged once more. Minutes later…"He's gone," said Stefan.Tears kept falling.They hugged for a while longer before pulling apart. Gwen looked at Stefan with her tear-stricken face. He had tears on his face as well.She bit her lips and reached out to wipe his tears. "A—Are these tears…yours or his?

    The next day, Rachel flew from Merchant City to Sharnwick City to diagnose Anne's condition. Theo tagged along as well because he had another identity, Rachel's boyfriend."According to the report, Anne's condition is slowly recuperating." Rachel was relieved after assessing the report. "Although she is very weak, she is going to get better with lots of rest."There is nothing wrong with her vocal cords too. It could be a psychological thing that makes her lose her voice. A knot in her heart that causes it." She looked at Luna, then at John. "Considering all factors, I think that knot is Luna."Rachel continued, "John, I know Luna is the root cause of all these bad things. Being away from Luna, Joshua, and other people is going to guarantee a safer life for you and your family. But have you thought about it from Anne's point of view? Other than you and Sammie, she has her own life and her circle of friends. Never has she blamed Luna for what happened, yet you forced her to leave Lun

    It was almost a miracle for Anne to willingly leave the house just to visit him!Robyn, meanwhile, sobbed at the sight.The nurse who accompanied Anne to the ward was puzzled. What was going on with these people?She snuck her phone out of her pocket and took a photo of this surreptitiously. Then, she sent it into the nurse's group chat with the caption, [What a strange family I met today.]The nurses in the group chat began gossiping about this. One of them tagged a fellow nurse named Daisy and said, [Hey, isn't this the guy who saved the old man you're looking after? What a hero!]Daisy was, at this moment, walking into Andy's room to help him change his wound dressing. She saw the message but was not able to type on her keyboard to respond, so she recorded a voice message instead. "Yes, that's the man. What's wrong with his family? What are you guys talking about?"As soon as she finished her sentence, she lifted her head and finally realized that Andy was not there.Instead,

    Anne stared at John for a long time before forcibly smiling and told him in sign language, "Robyn didn't return after so long, so I got worried and came by to check on her.""Daddy, Aunt Robyn, are you two hugging?" Sammie asked, blinking innocently as she raised her head in curiosity.John and Robyn turned pale at this.It was understandable for such a young child like Sammie to misinterpret them as hugging, but what would Anne think of this?John leaped off the bed and staggered toward Anne. "Anne, it's just a misunderstanding…"However, he was still so weak that his legs could not hold up the full weight of his body at all, and he almost crumpled to the ground.Quick-witted Robyn managed to catch him before he could fall, but this gesture appeared once again rather intimate to both Anne and Sammie. Sammie furrowed her brow and asked rather indignantly, "Are you hugging again? Daddy, how can you hug Aunt Robyn like this when you've never even hugged Mommy and me like this befor

    When the nurse pushed Anne to John's ward, she overheard John and Robyn fighting from the door. The fight was about how John was anxious to return home because he was worried about Anne and Sammie.However, as someone who used to work as a nurse, Robyn knew John should not leave the hospital after being shot by a gun. At least, he needed to stay in the hospital and be observed for 24 hours to make sure that he was fine before leaving the hospital. If an infection happened, John's body would crash easily and he would become weak just like Anne.In the ward, John frowned and talked with a serious tone, "I'm really fine. Get me my clothes so I can go upstairs to thank Miss Andie and go back home immediately. If Anne knows that I'm hurt, she is going to worry. She will easily be suspicious since you haven't gone back home for a long time. What if she worries about me and brings Sammie to the hospital to look for me? Can you bear yourself even just thinking about it? She's weak and Sammie

    Sammie's soft and cute babyish voice melted Stefan's heart immediately. It had been quite some time since he actually put a smile on his face. "Hi, there. What's your name and how old are you?"Sammie tilted her head to look at Stefan's handsome face and smiled sweetly, "I'm Samantha but everyone calls me Sammie."Then she did not forget to introduce Anne to Stefan too. "This is my Mommy. Her name is Anne."At this point, Stefan had given all of his attention to Sammie and did not notice Sammie mentioned that her mother's name was Anne. He pinched Sammie's cheek and said, "Your Mommy is not feeling well. You have to be a good girl and take care of her, do you understand?"Sammie nodded seriously and said, "I will.""Alright, sir. I will bring them to where they want to go," the nurse saw Anne signing to her anxiously. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will take good care of them."The promise from the nurse gave an assurance to Stefan that they would be well taken off. He smil

    This was the first time Anne brought Sammie out. Ever since she escaped from death, she became a different person—a recluse and was afraid of the sun. This situation became even worse after she became mute.The last time she left the house was two weeks ago when she had to go for surgery.However, she worried about John. In the morning, Robyn told her John was hurt and needed to stay in the hospital to rest. However, she had a hard time believing what Robyn said.After spending so many years together with John, Anne reckoned she was the one who knew John the most. If it was a minor injury, John would never want to stay in the hospital. He cared too much about her and Sammie, so he never dared to let her worry about him. Therefore, it just did not sound reasonable if John would stay in the hospital because of a small injury.Furthermore, Robyn had not returned home since the morning, which was nearly three hours since she left the house. After much consideration, she decided to call

    Tara fell silent upon hearing this. She bit her lip nervously and shot Gwen a tentative glance. "I didn't mean to offend you, Gwen…" "I know." Gwen let out an exhale and interrupted Tara before she could finish, "I know you meant no harm, but I can't deny that this is something I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around. In the future, neither of you—even you, Luna—should bring this up again." Her love life was such a mess that not even she could unravel the ties, much less expect other people to understand. Tara pursed her lips and did not reply. Luna stared at Gwen in silence for a while before finally saying, "But you have to face this eventually, Gwennie. After all that you've been through with Luke, all of us hope for nothing but the best for the two of you. Even if you avoid it now, you'll have to face the truth eventually. Otherwise, are you planning on spending the rest of your life in this complicated relationship with Luke? Can you bear the thought of not being

    Stefan was mildly amused by the look on her face. He extended his arms out in a gesture of defeat and said, "I never intended on ratting you out to Joshua. You three spoke about these secrets in my presence." With that, he shot Andy a rather helpless look. "Don't you agree, sir?" Andy was surprised to be called out all of a sudden. "Of course!" Although Gwen and Luke had been together for a long time, Luke had never much cared for maintaining good relations with his future father-in-law. He always thought his relationship with Gwen did not concern anyone else outside of the two of them. Combined with the fact that Andy had done some hurtful things to Gwen in the past, Luke grew even more disdainful of his future father-in-law. Because of this, he had never given Andy as much as a second glance throughout their relationship and rarely ever addressed him directly like this. The truth was, Stefan had already called out to Andy once before, during their rescue mission the day befor
