Chapter 670
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

Gwynn smiled faintly and said, “That’s great.”She couldn’t see him. All she could do was feel around his sleeves with her fingers. Maddox represented a part of her life, back when life hadn't been too hard on her. The shit hit the fan after his hands were ruined. Be that as it may, she had never regretted spending a small part of her life with him. She had been given a taste of happiness then. There was a sense of normalcy in her life and it was free of deception, if only for a brief moment.Her only regret was that Maddox suffered because of her!Maddox merely stared at her scrawny face. Try as he might, he could no longer find the Gwynn he knew in what he saw, but he remembered the affection he used to have for her. His heart used to stir because of her. Crouching slowly, he leaned in close to her and whispered, “Stay alive, okay? You’ve got your kid and you’re still young. You might stand a chance to find a new husband in the future! “There’s still hope as long as you stay

Maddox’s daughter looked just like him. She inherited his fair skin and looked absolutely beautiful. A warm, cozy sensation rose within him. Reaching out, he tied the jade necklace around his daughter’s neck and adjusted the strap.Hailey might’ve come from an ordinary family, but she knew how much this was worth. So, she immediately asked him, “Who gave you this, Maddox?”Brushing her hair gently, he smiled faintly. “One of my college friends gave it to me. It just so happens she's staying in the same hospital too. So, I dropped by to say hi to her and she gave this to me.”Hailey responded, “Oh.” Then, she added, “This jade isn’t exactly cheap, honey. If your friend is ill, then you should buy something of similar value and send it to her. We can’t let her think we're taking advantage of her. She'd look down on us.”He nodded in response. He kept quiet and stayed by her side. As a matter of fact, he knew he could live out the rest of his life happily if he continued to play t

Noah was punishing her. He was doing it because she was unfaithful to him. Gwynn couldn’t stop it. She tried to convince herself to stop caring. So, she pitted herself against him while she was bare naked. Staring at him with her compromised sight, she said gently, “Do you still have any feelings for me?”For a second there, he fell into a trance. Out of nowhere, the memories flooded his mind. Beads of sweat clung to her fair and delicate body when they first had sex, looking a lot like the dew hanging onto the petals of roses in the morning. That night was the first time he tasted every inch of her body.However, she looked like a wilting rose now. He wasn’t happy with the way she talked to him. So, he landed a flurry of kisses and caressed her shriveled body, trying to remind her of their shared memories. “You used to love me like crazy, Gwynn! We used to have a great time having sex with each other!”He was so jealous of Maddox that he was handling her too roughly. Gwyn

Gwynn kept asking him what was real when it came to him.However, Noah didn’t respond to her. Deprived of a much-needed answer, she searched deep within her dying soul, found a fiery strength, and sat up. She couldn’t see him, but she knew he was just right in front of her. Feeling around the night table, she closed her fingers around a heavy object and hurled it at where she thought he was. At that moment, she was really out to kill him. That was right! She wanted him dead!It had been years since he had deceived and tortured her. She had been through the most desperate and anguished moments, but she had never wished him dead. At this moment, however, she indisputably wanted him to die. At the next moment, her thoughts were turned into words.She yelled hysterically, “Drop dead, Noah!”Blood as red as wine flowed down the side of his forehead. Gwynn had smashed a vase on his head. Raising his hand, he wiped the blood off and stared at her, saying softly, “Do you really mea

Noah continued to fidget with the jade. He asked dryly, “What’s your baby’s name? Holly Herman, was it?”Hailey responded, “Yeah.” Then, she added, “We have an agreement, Mr. Noah. Our deal was done once Maddox and I got married. We weren’t supposed to see each other again.”Raising his eyes, he stared at her.She trembled all over. There was nothing but coldness on his face. Then, he said in an equally cold tone, “I seem to recall that I also told you to make him fall in love with you completely so he wouldn’t wander to the wrong places.”That was when it hit her. Staring at the jade with unblinking eyes, she knew who it was from. Her heart sank.She might’ve just given birth, but she couldn’t care about it now. Slipping out of the bed, she kneeled before him. After all, she knew how ruthless he was capable of being. Then, she started begging him to let Maddox go. “Maddox wouldn’t do something like that!“Even if they did meet up, I’m sure they were only seeing each

As long as Noah lived, Gwynn would never know peace. At the same time, Hailey would always be under his thumb. He had seen the security footage. He saw how his wife groveled at Noah’s feet, begging for the man to spare him. How silly!He wasn’t good enough for her to be doing this for him……Noah returned to Gwynn’s ward and forced some porridge down her throat. In the end, she only ate half of it.Lorian was crying in the next room. He had been wailing intensely for the past two days. It was so serious that his voice was turning hoarse. He kept yelling, “Mommy… Mommy…”It broke her heart. With that said, she didn’t talk to Noah about it. After all, she had no interest in talking to him about anything. As far as she was concerned, he was just a stranger to her.He stared at her quietly for a brief moment. Then, he asked, “Don’t you care about Lorian?”She simply remained quiet. Averting his gaze, he put down the bowl of porridge and walked over to the next ward. Gl

Gladys was so happy that she teared up. Noah wasn’t around that day, so she seized the opportunity to talk to her mistress. Sitting by the bed, she said, “You’re doing much better now, Ms. Gwynn. You have to think about Lorian and stay alive! There are no second chances when it comes to life. I’ve never heard about someone coming back from the dead, either!” Gwynn leaned on the headboard. The little boy was fidgeting with a toy dinosaur egg. He couldn’t have enough of it. Parting his lips, he gave out a hearty laugh, revealing his white teeth and looking all adorable. These joyful sounds were what gave her strength. Wiping her tears, Gladys said, “I’m sure Mr. Noah would go easier on you when you’ve fully recovered. Anyway, I heard from Kim that he found you a perfect pair of corneas. The donor’s in Amestria right now.“Once your surgery has been scheduled, the donor would fly over right before the date. You’re about to regain your sight, Ms. Gwynn.”Gwynn only responded brie
