The car quickly arrived at Hailey’s villa, and Eleanor withdrew her fingers that rubbed his temples, and said to him, “I’ll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow.”
Bemard nodded lightly, held her waist, raised his head, and kissed her again before reluctantly letting go: “Good night.”
Eleanor also replied ‘good night‘ and got out of the car. As she reached out to push the villa door, she looked back.
Behind the half–lowered car window, his face appeared, as pure and noble as the moonlight
Eleanor smiled at him, then turned around and walked into the villa….
In the car, the man saw the door close, and his struggling body suddenly fell onto the back seat.
‘Aidyn, painkillers.”
Aidyn quickly took out the painkillers, raised the partition, and handed the pills to Bernard.
The man took them, put them in his mouth, his face deathly pale.
Seeing Mr. Laurence like this, Aidyn’s brow furrowed, and his face was full of worry.
“Mr. Laurence, when did you start having headaches?”
If he remembered correctly, Mr. Laurence’s older brother also started having headaches before he died.
With one hand supporting his head, Bernard looked at Aidyn with cold eyes that seemed like ice.
“I don’t want anyone to know about my
headaches.”
Aidyn didn’t obediently nod like before, but looked at him uneasily.
“Is it because you’ve taken too many sleeping pills over the past three years, plus not sleeping much lately, that’s causing the headaches?”
His older brother took control of the Laurence family at eighteen, overworked himself to death, and headaches were the first symptom.
Mr. Laurence had been whipped and abused by Donna Stanley–Laurence since he was a child, and his body was already full of scars….
After losing Ms. Shultz, Bernard nearly died from a gunshot wound while saving Garett Falsey, even though his suicide attempt failed.
After barely being saved, he relied on cigarettes, alcohol, and sleeping pills to get by, or he worked tirelessly…
When Ms. Shultz came back, he was even more heartbroken because he couldn’t make up for his past mistakes, and he suffered from several stomach bleeds…
Lately, he hadn’t slept well since returning from W City, staying up until his eyes were bloodshot, and now he’s having headaches.
Aidyn was afraid that Mr. Laurence would wear out his body just like his older brother did….
“It’s just a headache, I won’t die.”
After saying this, he ordered Aidyn:
“Transfer all my assets to Eleanor in secret, without her knowing.”
Upon hearing this, Aidyn’s face turned even paler with fear.
“Mr. Laurence, what’s going on?”
Why would he suddenly transfer all his assets to Ms. Shultz?
Could it be that Mr. Laurence was really in a bad state, so he started making arrangements for after his death?!
The man leaning back in his car seat, gripping his temples with one hand, rubbed them hard:
“I said, once she regains her identity, I’ll give her everything I have.”
Aidyn stared at him, trying to discern the truth from his words, but couldn’t see anything.
He wanted to ask Mr. Laurence what was going on, but then he heard his cold, indifferent voice-
“Aidyn, I love her very, very much.”
That love had seeped into his bones, so he was willing to give her everything unreservedly.
Aidyn didn’t understand love, nor did he know how deep Mr. Laurence’s love was for her.
He only knew that the Mr. Laurence he used to know was restrained, patient, calm, and distant, never touching any emotions.
But since meeting Ms. Shultz, he had become scarred, battered, and even willing to give up his life.
Aidyn gripped the steering wheel tightly, looking at the man in the rearview mirror, and sighed heavily.
“Mr. Laurence, since you love Ms. Shultz so much, I hope you take good care of yourself, don’t lie to me, and don’t lie to her.“/ Bernard turned his head and looked out the car window. Seeing the warm yellow light on the second floor of the villa, his eyes. overflowed with twinkling stars.
He had promised her that he would make up for everything in his life, and he would never let her down again, unless she didn’t want him…
