Chapter 660
However, Noah didn’t want Gwynn to die. He needed her to stay by his side. She even mumbled about going back to her studies earlier that night. That was why he wanted to go to Silvercrest. Once she was recovered, he could send her to college and she could study anything she wanted. All that mattered to him was that she was happy.…The sky was brightening up when Noah returned to Lockwood Hospital. Gwynn was half asleep. Opening the ward’s door, he walked over to her side leisurely and sat down. Then, he gripped her hands. She was shocked by the touch of his hands. He murmured, “Relax, Gwynn. It’s me. I need you to listen to me. Keep living. I’ll give you the liver you need. I’ll even give you one of my kidneys if you need it. I’ll give you everything I have, Gwynn.“Do you remember the way you used to call me? “Can you call me that way again?”…Gwynn’s hands were cold and her bones were clearly visible beneath her thin strips of skin. Staring at him, she said, exasper

Raising her head, Zoe said, “Have you asked Gwynn if she wants to stay here, Noah? You took away her freedom. What’s the difference between her and the old me? Please, Noah. Set her free. If she makes it out of this, let her look after Lorian and live out the rest of her life in peace.“Gwynn has suffered enough, Noah. I’ve never begged you for anything. Please, do this for me and let her go…”This was the second time they fought over Gwynn. Noah loved Zoe a lot. Saying something that would hurt her was the last thing he wanted to do. However, he wasn’t about to give up on his wife, either. In the end, he hung up the phone and pulled the lever, bringing the helicopter into the air. Its blades chopped the air and took to the blue sky. Zoe’s silhouette grew smaller by the second. She kept yelling after him. “Have you forgotten about it, Noah? Ever since you came out of jail, you fought with Mason multiple times because you couldn’t stand the way he treated me in our marriage. W

All of a sudden, she went mad. There was no more naivety and innocence in her eyes. All that was left was resentment. “I’ve got no more to give to you now, Noah! Liam can’t make a living in Brookesville because you’ve ruined his reputation. You kept saying that I was punishing you. The fact is that I keep giving to you instead!“Now, you’ve got Lorian and me! Our lives are in your hands!“Is that enough for you? Huh?!“Why do you want me to keep living?“What’s there to live for? I’ve lost faith in everything. Do you know how it feels to have your heart and love squandered? Do you know how hard it is to walk on eggshells all the time? You kept telling me that you’ve spent some hellish time in jail. Well, that’s how I feel as well!“Back in our first year in Silvercrest, I loved you so much that I revolved my life around you. Your smile was enough to light up my entire day! “If I saw you with a gloomy face, I’d feel heartache for you at first. Then, I’d fall to thinking if I di

“I’m going to call for the doctor!” Noah rose immediately, but Gwynn grabbed his arm with her shriveled fingers, which were uncharacteristically strong now. Her eyeballs dilated. The next thing she knew, she could no longer see Noah clearly even though she was looking right at him. It was as if someone put a veil in front of her eyes. The cancerous cells must’ve spread through to her eyeballs. She was slowly losing her sight now. It was such an unexpected change, but she accepted it gracefully. A tear fell on the back of his hand. It was so cold that it chilled him to the bones. She flashed him the faintest smile he had ever seen and mouthed the words. “I don’t love you anymore, Noah.“It’s too much torment trying to love you and I’ve waited for you to love me back for far too long…”Her mind traveled back to when they first met each other in Brookesville three years ago.She was merely twenty-one years old back then. Liam had done too good a job at protecting her from the

Putting Gwynn’s friend in the back seat, Noah sat in the car with Gwynn next to him and their backs turned to the chauffeur. Reaching out, he knocked on the partition and said, “Take us to the nearest hospital.”“Right away, Mr. Noah.” The chauffeur nodded and stepped on the gas pedal.Gwynn was still feeling dizzy up to this point. Once she came back to her senses, she was kneeling on the floor, holding her comatose friend’s hands. With tears in her eyes, she muttered, “Hang in there. You’re going to be fine.”He leaned back on the seat. With his slick hair, the bloodstain on his white shirt did nothing to diminish his good looks. Pulling out a cigarette from its packet, he held it in his lean fingers, but he didn’t light it up. Knocking it lightly, he looked at the innocent young lady condescendingly.She was way more innocent than he had expected, like a harmless bunny. Kneeling on the floor, her buttock was raised. It would’ve looked downright adorable if he added a snowy t

Noah was very patient too. He’d smile at her friend from time to time. He even hired a private nurse for her and made a fifteen million dollars upfront payment for her medical fees so she could stay in the best VIP ward. He didn’t talk to Gwynn the entire time. He intended to make it seem as if he had feelings for her friend. Now, Gwynn was also at an age when she dreamed of having a romantic relationship. So, she was a little disappointed. Concerned that the others would see her real feelings, she tried her best to act natural.With that said, Gwynn was such a naive and innocent young lady when she was twenty-one years old. On the other hand, Noah had been playing the field for years now. He knew exactly what she was thinking. As far as he was concerned, she was this juicy, succulent piece of meat that was haplessly waiting for him to sink his sinister teeth in. Half an hour later, he left. Gwynn’s friend was reluctant to say farewell to him. Once he was out of the ward, s

Clouds were floating gently underneath the evening sun, looking as radiant as a gem when rays of orange light passed through them and shone down on the Brookesville Art College. Gwynn was walking out of her campus slowly. Dressed in a white shirt and short pleated skirt, her silky legs turned a lot of heads, but she was completely oblivious to it. There was a bus stop not far from the entrance. A public bus drove toward it slowly and she stepped forward, ready to get on the bus. At the next moment, a black Rolls-Royce swerved into the bus stop before the bus could. The car window was lowered halfway through, revealing an elegant yet familiar face. It was Noah. Gwynn was stunned. She couldn’t help but take a step back. Leaning over, he opened the door to the backseat, stared at her with unblinking eyes, and said in a husky voice, “Get in the car!”The bus was already honking at him. The other college students were staring at her as well. Biting her lips gently, she bent d

As time went by, her palm was sweaty. Once the car stopped at her apartment, Gwynn made a beeline into her place. Her servant, Juana, noticed her reddened face, poked her head out the window, and cast her glance downstairs. There was an exceptionally handsome guy standing by an extraordinarily luxurious car. The man was mature, stunning, and wealthy. He seemed like he was somewhere in his thirties. With that said, it wasn’t her place to poke her nose into her mistress’s business. She was folding clothes when she brought it up casually, “Mr. Liam highlighted that it’s ill-advised to be in a relationship when you’re young and naive. For the record, I feel the same way.“There are a lot of wicked men out there. A lot of wealthy men have their eyes out for young, beautiful ladies. They’d date these ladies for a year or two and move on to a new target once the novelty wears off.”Gwynn knew what the servant was getting at. She said softly, “He’s not my boyfriend. He’s the one who sa
