Chapter 401 Hopeless

Claire hesitated for a moment before finally speaking softly, “Thank you.”Javier did not respond. His gaze was burning, and his fingers lingered on her wound as he got lost in thought. Claire felt uneasy under his intense gaze and coughed lightly to change the subject, saying, “Can you give me my phone now?”As expected, his eyes turned icy at the mention of the phone. He stood up and snorted coldly, “Don’t worry. I won’t break my promises.” With that, he left without another word. Claire was left confused by his neurotic behavior. Was he going to hand her the phone? And if so, when would he give it to her? Claire didn’t know that he would have just handed her the phone if she had just asked for it. There was no need for her to go through all this trouble. Moreover, her recent actions had been very questionable; even Javier and Ollie noticed it. Thus, Claire waited anxiously all night, and it wasn’t until early the next morning that Javier returned her the phone.When she took

Chapter 402 Missing Her a Little

Claire couldn’t afford to overthink it now. Her only concern was that her unborn child must be safe. Fortunately, she could feel that her stomach was temporarily okay, and the baby was still alive. She could vaguely smell the scent of blood and knew it came from her. Strangely enough, she found the smell of blood even more pleasant than any other scent in the world, and even the pain was enough to keep her awake and prevent her from fainting. She was fatally wounded. Claire had no idea how many glass shards were lodged in her body and felt her vision was becoming blurrier.Only the door remained in her sight at the end, propelling her forward. She slowly inched closer and closer. All she needed to do was push a little harder to open the door. However, when her bloodied hand touched the edge of the door, she lost the last of her strength. Her vision went black, and she passed out.Javier had already changed into clean clothes in the study’s hidden room and was sitting on the sof

Chapter 403 His Heart Ached

He was merely a child. How was he so sensible? Javier felt as if there was a heavy stone in his heart and glared at the doctor coldly. When he learned Claire’s blood type was AB, he immediately said, “Use mine! We have the same blood type.” His eyes were filled with eagerness, like a heroic, protective father. Ollie wanted to say something but remained silent in the end. They had the same blood type, so it didn’t matter whose blood they used.The doctor’s eyes lit up with hope. He ushered Javier into the operating room without hesitation, fully prepared.Javier lay on the bed next to Claire inside. When he saw her unconscious and on a ventilator, his heart ached. He could feel his blood flowing out of his veins slowly into Claire, and he felt a sense of pride and accomplishment because the same blood now flowed through their veins, and they could never be separated. Suddenly, he made a decision and summoned the attending doctor to his side, urgently pleading, “Doctor, give her as m

Chapter 404 It’s All My Fault

When Claire opened her eyes, she was immediately met with Javier’s face. He looked as good-looking as ever but did not look as pleasing to the eye as he used to be. He looked much more haggard and thin as if he had experienced a lot overnight.Claire blinked her eyes to adjust to the brightness in the room and remained silent for a moment. Javier was overjoyed to see her awake and asked with concern, “How are you feeling? Are you feeling discomfort in any places?” His words of concern reminded her of everything that had happened the day before. She experienced a painful lump in her throat and was forced to swallow the words, “I’m fine.”Claire turned her gaze away and forced out the words, “I’ll live.”She did not, however, feel the satisfaction she expected after saying those words. She mocked herself for her own stupidity and naiveté. What else was she hoping for at this point? Hadn’t she already been through enough?Javier did not become enraged by her words but instead chuckl

Chapter 405 Poisoned

The doctor was scared to his wits when he saw Javier’s face darken and quickly explained, “Don’t worry, Mr. Marquez, her body will slowly release the toxins as long as she stops taking the drug. We have to observe her closely over the next few days.”Javier was relieved by his words. Her health was his main concern. He would protect her well the following days so she would not be hurt. He was about to ask the doctor how long it would take Claire to recover but paused when he saw the anxious look on his face. Javier glared at him coldly, and he immediately noticed that something was off and gestured for the doctor to continue. The doctor hesitated for a moment before speaking, “Madam and the baby are safe, but she’s in a very poor mental state. I suspect it’s because of the drug. Although I haven’t determined the name or origin of this drug, I can confirm that it is the primary cause of her irritable and volatile temper. That’s why she had such an outburst.”The doctor paused and co

Chapter 406 Not Merely Death

He wanted to apprehend that audacious person himself and hold an interrogation to find out who dared to do such a thing behind his back! Naturally, Javier did not believe the servant did it alone. After all, his household staff all had a clean record.The only plausible explanation was that someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes and was the mastermind! With this in mind, Javier directed Henry and the others to bring her back by any means necessary, or else they, too, would perish.At the same time, he instructed his driver to head toward a shady part of town. He was fuelled entirely with anger, and he would not let those who hurt Claire get away with this. Those who offended Javier would face a fate worse than death! Hattie had just heard the news from Robin, and she was so shocked that she leaped to her feet.“What did you say? Claire Weiss is fine? She was just sent to the emergency room for a procedure?” She was more than just shocked at this moment as she stared

Chapter 407 Ruthless

However, did she even have a chance of winning? They might be one step ahead of Javier, but the huge disparity in power between the two families made Hattie unable to guarantee anything at the moment. Moreover, if Javier sent his men from the dark web, the Snyder family would be completely defenseless against him. The mere thought of it sent shivers down her spine, and the fear of something bad happening kept returning to her. Hattie made a terrifying decision with this in mind. She took out her phone, trembling, and searched for a long time before finding that man’s phone number. After hesitating for some time, she finally dialed it.Soon, a hoarse male voice answered the phone, “What’s the matter?”He spoke in a normal tone, but Hattie still could sense the sinister and cruel nature of the man on the other end of the line.She took a deep breath and forced herself to sound brave, saying, “Igor, I need your help with something.” One hour later, near the water reservoir on the o

Chapter 408 You’re So Silly

Initially, Javier wanted to reprimand her, but his displeasure disappeared along with Claire’s smile. He sighed contentedly and finally reached out to wrap Claire tightly in his arms. “It’s alright. Everything is in the past now. You have to get a good rest now. We’ll talk tomorrow,” Javier murmured in her ears and hugged her waist. Claire stayed in his arms this time. She didn’t struggle but nodded gently and snuggled deeper into his embrace.Strangely, she no longer felt the overwhelming rejection for him as she felt before. She no longer felt insecure as she lay against his chest, feeling his heartbeat. This was how she truly felt on the inside.Claire closed her eyes and was lost in her thoughts, and she could feel herself becoming drowsier as Javier carried her upstairs. She had been waiting for him so long that it was time for her to rest. Claire was in a daze when she felt herself being placed on a soft and comfortable bed. The coziness of it prompted her to murmur and s

Chapter 409 Heart Broken

Patty gave it some thought before shaking her head dismissively. Ollie observed her and immediately inquired, “What are you thinking, Grandma Patty? Why are you shaking your head?”Patty patted Ollie’s head lovingly. She didn’t want to burden him with these complicated matters. She casually told him, “It’s nothing, Ollie. Grandma Patty suddenly thought of something about that bad woman, but I don’t think it’s related to your Mommy’s situation, so I didn’t mention it.” Ollie nodded innocently. He was intelligent, but he was still too young to comprehend the complexities of the situation.“It’s all because Ollie is too young to protect Mommy, so she got hurt,” Ollie sobbed. He looked very dejected as tears started to well up in his eyes.Javier was about to leave when he noticed Ollie crying and came to a halt. His heart couldn’t help but break for Ollie. He was about to say something to cheer him up when he remembered what Patty had said earlier. “Patty, what did you just say about

Chapter 410 Who Did It

The poison had such a strong effect on Claire that it made her lose control of her emotions. She frowned deeply as she listened to Patty explain her condition. Patty tried to comfort her by saying, “Madam, you have luck on your side, so don’t worry. The doctor said the baby is safe and healthy. All you need to do is rest well, and everything will be fine. Don’t worry. Fortunately, Mr. Marquez discovered you in time, and you were able to avoid the worst-case scenario. From now on, I will personally monitor your diet. We will not make the same mistakes again.” Patty’s face was filled with sadness as she said this. She felt guilty and partially responsible for what had happened because her negligence had led to the incident.Claire reassured her, “Don’t overthink it, Patty. This incident had nothing to do with you. Someone must have schemed everything.” Indeed, it was no coincidence that she had consumed such a slow-reacting poison. Someone must have given it to her intentionally.
