Chapter 1661

Meanwhile, back at the Riveras' mansion…Lucas had just returned to New Capital City. He went straight to his company after having dinner with Corinne.He had nothing urgent to attend to, but he chose to go to do the work that had been piling up. This was to distract himself from thinking about other things that might worsen his already bad mood.It was already late at night by the time he finished his work, and he closed his laptop.Pinching the bridge of his nose, he stood up, put on his coat, and went out.As soon as he opened the office door, he saw Edmund wrapping up a phone call and turning hastily.Seeing Lucas coming out of the office, Edmund hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mister Lucas, are you leaving soon? I was about to go in and tell you something."Lucas looked at the flustered Edmund with a frown. "What's the matter?""Something happened at your house! The housekeeper just called and said that Mister Maxwell is missing. He couldn't get through to you, so he

'Mom and Corinne wouldn't have left home and suffered such a hard life if it hadn't been for those crappy things Dad did back then!' thought Lucas to himself.Lucas comforted his grandparents, but his tone was a tad sarcastic when he said, "Dad has been living well for the past few years, so it makes no sense he'll suddenly want to take his life. So don't worry. I promise I'll get him home safely."After saying this, Lucas turned to thank the two police officers, then walked upstairs calmly.Beatrice and Cedric looked at each other with shame in their eyes when they saw such indifference in Lucas' attitude.The two of them drove away Lucas' mother years ago, and although Lucas never said anything about it, they knew he never forgave them for that.Maxwell also suffered from severe mental illness after Emily left and needed to rely on drugs just to behave like a sane person.Even though Maxwell was in his prime then, he could no longer manage the company due to mental illness, so

Sunny quickly walked into the mansion and saw his grandparents gloomily sitting in the living room."Grandpa, Grandma! Haven't you found my dad yet?"Beatrice and Cedric raised their heads, and their eyes lit up for a second when they saw Sunny coming in.Beatrice shook her head helplessly and said, "No. We still don't know where he is."Sunny frowned and asked, "Have you called the police?""The police just left. They told us we would have to wait for forty-eight hours before a missing person report could be filed," answered Cedric.Sunny panicked at this. "What about Lucas? Where is he now?"Beatrice and Cedric both sighed at the mention of their eldest grandson."Your brother is upstairs. Can you ask him if his men have found any leads?"Sunny swiftly rushed upstairs and knocked on Lucas' door.It was not even one second later when Lucas said, "Come in."Only then did Sunny dare to open the door and go in. "Lucas, what's the situation now? Have your people found Dad yet?"

Unsurprisingly, it was the first time Beatrice and Cedric came across the secret room as well, but they managed to piece things together nonetheless.They exchanged glances and sighed. They did not answer Sunny as they did not know how to answer him.It was not like they could tell him that his father secretly built a room behind the bookshelf because he did not want to sleep in the same bed as his wife, could they?They finally understood that over the years, their son had been sleeping in a different bed with the wife they forced him to marry.Sunny decided not to probe further when he did not get any answers from his grandparents. Instead, he stared thoughtfully at the secret room.The servants quickly brought the medicine and water to Maxwell. After forcing some water down his throat, Maxwell choked, coughed, and opened his eyes.Beatrice and Cedric sighed in relief when they saw him waking up.Beatrice stepped forward and held his hand."Maxwell, you're finally awake! You

Just like that, Beatrice and Cedric went out, leaving Maxwell and Sunny alone in the room.Sunny pulled up a chair and sat beside his father's bed. "How are you feeling, Dad? Are you thirsty?" he asked, concerned. "Do you want me to get you a glass of water?"Maxwell shook his head. "I'm okay." He then looked at the door thoughtfully and asked, "Sunny, where's your brother? Isn't he back yet?""He's back in his room. He was the one who told me about the secret room. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to find you! Do you know that Grandma and Grandpa even called the police to look for you? Don’t ever go missing or drink alone again. You can just ask Lucas or me to drink with you!"Maxwell looked at his younger son with relief, thinking he had certainly grown up. At the same time, he laughed self-deprecatingly at himself."Okay, I promise you I won't drink alone anymore. But you should know that Lucas will never drink with me."Sunny gave it some thought and realized Maxwell was right.

"Do you think I can ever stop worrying about Corinne?" asked Lucas.Sunny understood what he was feeling. After all, the person Lucas cared about the most in the world was Corinne."Sigh! I'm also worried about her, but I have a hunch that she and Jeremy will reunite and live happily."Lucas glanced at him and responded softly, "Okay. Go to sleep, Sunny."Lucas looked really tired, so Sunny thought he should not bother him anymore. He nodded and turned around, but before he went out of the room, the butler suddenly barged in and said in a panic, "Mister Lucas, something happened Mister Maxwell! He… H—He…"The butler's face was pale, and he was in so much of a shock that he could not properly get his words out.Lucas and Sunny frowned."What's the matter? We've found Dad, haven't we?" asked Sunny.The butler was old, and his whole body was shaking when he spoke, "Mister Maxwell he cut his wrists, and there was so much blood…"Sunny's eyes widened in horror. "What?!"Lucas frow

Maxwell really looked as if he was about to die.Sunny was so frightened that he quickly pushed Lucas away. "Lucas, you shouldn't say those things to Dad now! It's more important to save him first!"Lucas scoffed. "He won't die so easily. He needs to live so he can atone for his sins!"As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of an ambulance could be heard coming from outside.…When Maxwell woke up again, he found himself lying on the hospital bed in a ward that reeked of the smell of disinfectant."Dad! You're awake!" exclaimed Sunny worriedly as he leaned in on him.Maxwell was stunned for a moment, but his gaze became riddled with pain when he realized that he had not escaped his unbearable life after all.Sunny sat by the bed and said, "Dad, promise me you won't do stupid things like this again! You have so much going for you, so why would you want to end your life? Grandpa and Grandma still have no idea you're in the hospital. They're going to pass out with shock again

"Corinne already has her hands full with everything that's going on. Not to mention, she's also busy trying to get Jeremy out from under Sophia's thumb. I don't think we should add to her problems," warned Lucas in a deep voice.Sunny's heart naturally went out to Corinne, but he was not going to sit by and do nothing when his father was dying!"But—""Enough! I forbid you from calling her!" warned Lucas again."Fine," said Sunny reluctantly. Even so, he made up his mind to ask Corinne for help when he saw how pitiful Maxwell looked lying on his hospital bed.'Lucas only says I can't call her. He didn't say anything about going over to the Holdens' estate to talk to Corinne. I'm just doing what he's telling me not to do,' thought Sunny.…The next day, Maxwell refused to eat when he woke up. He looked at Sunny dully and asked, "Where's Luna? When is she coming to see me?""Dad, please eat something first! I haven't called Luna yet. It's so early, and she might still be sleeping

"Corinne, I'm begging you… Dad really doesn't want to live now. I'm afraid he'll do something stupid again. Please… Please…""I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do," said Corinne indifferently.She had no feelings for, nor any memory of, her so-called father, so she did not care about him.Moreover, Maxwell was responsible for Emily's disappearance, so it would be like Corinne was betraying her mother if she went to see her father.'No way in hell am I going to visit him,' she thought.She turned to go back into the mansion when Sunny suddenly knelt in front of her, blocking her path.Corinne was a little taken aback. "What are you doing?" she asked with a frown."Corinne, I beg you... Please…come with me to the hospital to cheer up Dad. I'm really worried about him. He won't eat or take his medicine. I wouldn't have come to you if there was another way. Lucas forbade me from asking you for help, too…"Corinne did not know what to say to him.Sunny tugged at her clothes piti

As they rode the elevator, Sunny told Corinne, "Just try to cheer up Dad as best as you can. I'll be standing guard outside."Corinne frowned and glanced sideways at him. "Why do you need to stand guard outside? It's not like we're doing anything shameful."Sunny shook his head. "No, no. It's not that. I'm just afraid Lucas will find out about this. He's definitely going to beat me up then. He warned me several times yesterday not to bother you with this matter, but…for my dad's sake, I had no choice."Corinne simply scoffed.Ding! The elevator door opened.Sunny led Corinne to Maxwell's ward. When they went in, the servants were trying to coax Maxwell into eating, but he simply laid and stared at the ceiling as if he did not hear anything.Sunny sighed helplessly, then cleared his throat to attract attention, which made the servants retreat automatically.Sunny led Corinne to the bedside and said to Maxwell, "Dad, Luna's here to see you."Maxwell's pupils shrank, and he turn
