Chapter 244 I Will Never Leave You
Cynthia hurriedly left the hotel and quickly hailed a car on the road. She told the driver where to go. As he glanced at her through the rearview mirror, his gaze made Cynthia feel uneasy.
She took out a compact mirror from her bag, lowered her collar, and examined the red mark. Her cycbrows furrowed slightly, unsure why her heart was heating so fast. She quickly covered it with foundation, applying several layers until it was no longer noticeable.
She couldn’t believe what Zachary had said. She simply couldn’t believe that Stefan had personally delivered her into that despicable man’s bed
The previous night, they had a fight over something about the child and she ran out, feeling heartbroken. She had a few drinks with her friends at the bar. When she went to the restroom, she suddenly fainted.
1. she was
Although Cynthia did not come from a wealthy family, her parents were intellectuals who raised her strictly. She had never been to such a place before. She must have been drunk. When she woke in a hotel, lying in the same bed with Zachary. Both of them were naked. She felt guilty because she had Jet. Stefan down
After returning home, she was even more unsure about how she should face him
Cynthia arrived home.
The housekeeper greeted her. “Mrs. Xenos”
Cynthia responded. Where’s Stefan? Is he still sleeping?”
The housekeeper nodded. “Alter your argument with the gentleman last night, he stayed up all night in his room waring for you
Cynthia was taken aback, her guilt intensifying. She hurriedly went upstairs, and as she looked at the tightly closed door, it felt as if her heart was being repeatedly stabbed hundreds, thousands of times. She didn’t know what to do to make up for her unforgivable mistake.
Cynthia gently knocked on the door and entered the room with a nervous heart. The room was dimly lit: only two night lights were on. Their wedding photo was hanging above the bed Seeing the photo, Cynthia felt as if her heart was suffocating. She carefully approached.
Stefan was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday: He sat in his wheelchair, facing the floor-to- ceiling
window
She didn’t know how to proceed.
A voice, gentle as a breeze, spoke up. “I called you.”
Cynthia’s heart skipped a bear. “My phone ran out of battery last night.”
She walked over, half kneeling in front of him. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have argued with you. It’s my fault. Can we not get a divorce, please? Even if we can’t have a child, we can adopt one that will be ours..
“What’s the point of staying with a half-paralyzed man? If you’re worried about the property, I can leave without a penny

“I don’t want that!” Cynthia’s eyes instantly turned red. “I just want to be with you. No matter what happens to you, you’re the one… I will always love. When I married you, it wasn’t for your money. Stefan… Can y you please not push me away? All I want is to be by your side, and I have never once found fault with you in any way.”
The man lowered his head, his eyes cold and indifferent. The left side of his face bore the marks of a burn, a disfigurement that starkly contrasted with the warm and handsome image in his wedding photo. It was as if they were two different people.
Stefan was her mother’s student, excelling both in character and learning. Every time her mother mentioned him, her eyes were filled with admiration. He was truly outstanding, someone too lofty for her to reach.
Their union was initially arranged by her mother.
On their wedding day, they encountered a fire at the hotel where they were honeymooning Stefan thought she was still trapped in the room and bravely rushed in to save her. By the time the firefighters found him, he had been crushed by a fallen wall, his face severely burned, and he was barely clinging to life. The doctors said he might end up in a vegetative state.
Even though he had been in a coma for so long. Cynthia had never given up on him throughout these years. Even if he would never wake up. she was determined to stay by his side forever.
It was precisely because of this incident that Cynthia became the scapegoat of the entire Xenos family,
She had always been by his side, and even though he had tried every possible way to drive her away over the years, Cynthia was not willing to leave him.
Even if his face was disfigured, even if he was paralyzed from the waist down, so what?
She was in love with the Stelan she knew.
She didn’t care at all, nor did she mind his current appearance.
“Do as you wish Stefan closed his eyes, no longer looking at her.
As long as he did not divorce her, she would do whatever he wanted.
Cynthia wiped the tears from her face. “Shall I give you a bath? After that, we can get a good night’s sleep. I’ll talk things over with Moni, okay?”
In the past, Cynthia had put her work on hold to take better care of him. She learned how to personally attend to his needs, from food and clothing to daily care. She was always by his side, inseparable.
After filling the bath, Cynthia gently wiped him down with a towel. The extensive burn on his back left no patch of skin unscathed.
Half an hour later, Cynthia helped him get dressed and had him sit down. She dried his hair with a hairdryer. “Your hair has grown again. Shall I give you a haircut tomorrow? By the way, not long ago. I had someone inquire for me. There’s a hospital in Atharia that, after reviewing the case, might have a solution. Once the visa is processed, we can go there for treatment together.”
After blow-drying her hair Cynthia tucked him into bed. She then walked over to the wardrobe, picked pf a set of pajamas, and took a bath. As she looked at her reflection m the mirror, her initial smile faced replaced by regret and heartbreak. But above all, she felt fear.
Emerging from the bathroom. Cynthia turned off the lamp by the bedside table and climbed into bed. As soon as she lay down, the man, eyes closed, turned his back to her. All she could do was cautiously
wrap her arms around his waist from behind, pressing her face against his back. “I will never leave you… she whispered.
“I love you, Stefan.”
The man opened his eyes, his gaze dim and profound, as if entwined with pain.
This day was destined to be anything but calm.
Jasper was rushed to the hospital, where he remained unconscious overnight. The nurses, upon seeing his injuries, were speechless, their anger simmering just below the surface. Fortunately, he had been brought injust in time, and his wounds had been treated. Otherwise, given his condition, an infection would have been unavoidable, reaching a point of no return. When it came time to insert the IV, the nurses hesitated about where to start. Ulumately, it was the head nurse who intervened and successfully administered the drip.
No one was taking charge at the company, and now that the CEO was injured, he couldn’t simply ignore the situation.
He took the initiative, postponing all the meetings, everything that awaited the CEO’s decision.
Upon receiving the message from Fabian, Richard promptly arrived with his bodyguards and housekeepers. For safety purposes, the entire fifteenth-floor VIP ward had been completely sealed off.
“But… why has Mr. Jasper changed like this? Why would he suddenly decide to remove his tattoo? Mr. Sherwood, you better tell the truth. Otherwise, I won’t be able to explain it to Old Mrs. Smith..
