Chapter 663
“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

However, her inner thoughts were plain to see on her face. How was he not supposed to see it?…In the end, Noah didn’t do anything with her. He merely resumed the date with her.In less than six months, she was already hopelessly in love with him. That was when he decided to take her to Silvercrest on a leisure trip. He knew it’d rain heavily on that day. He took her golfing and it poured when they were about to go back, trapping them in the middle of the hill. Naturally, it meant they had to stay the night in an upscale hotel. There were a lot of available rooms there, but he only asked for a suite. She tugged at his sleeves when he was getting the room key. Then, she stared at him with unblinking eyes. Obviously, she wasn’t ready to sleep with him yet, but he thought it was about time. He had wasted too much time on her. If he insisted on it, she wouldn’t be able to resist him. After all, she was so submissive to him.His eyes grew darker. Holding her hands, he led

The tear fell on the back of Noah’s hand, chilling him to the bone. His heart was shivering. All of a sudden, he held her shoulders and called out to her, “Gwynn!”However, she was calmer than she had ever been. Feeling around the bed, she lay down on it and said in an exhausted voice, “I can’t see anything! It’s fine, though. I’ve seen this coming. It’s just a matter of time.“Stop wasting your breath, Noah!“I’m sick of this!”…Lying on her bed quietly, tears filled her eyes. For a second there, her mind traveled back to the moment when she first met him. He looked so charismatic then. Although he was still good-looking and wealthy now, her heart no longer pounded for him. If he didn’t love her, she wasn’t about to debase herself by groveling to him. Tears welled up in her lifeless eyes. The brightest stars in the sky reminded her of the fireworks they had seen that night. Ironically, all of that was fake! She closed her eyes gently.Noah couldn’t take it. This was t

The glow from the evening sun lit up the sky in an orange hue. However, Gwynn saw nothing but pitch black. There was no morning light or evening sun in her world. She couldn’t even see her precious son even if she wanted to. Gladys took Lorian to her mistress’s room when she realized Noah wasn’t around. She guided the little boy’s hands and put them in his mom’s hands. Tears filled her eyes. “Here. Let your mom hear your voice.”Gwynn’s hands were cold while his hands were warm. Worried that she might make him feel uncomfortable, she reluctantly let go of his hands after a while. Her chest rose and fell gently. Lorian probably sensed that his mother was feeling ill. He called out to her softly, “Mommy… Mommy.”Wiping her tears, the old servant said, “Lorian’s calling for you, Ms. Gwynn! Look at him. He’s so smart! You have to pull it together for him. There’s a chance you might do better. After all, Mr. Noah hired the best doctor in the world for you. He has the best medica
