"My father has suffered so much these past ten years, I must get justice for him!"Killian watched Sheila, her teeth gritted in hatred, a pang of unease stirring in his stomach. He understood her hatred, yet felt utterly powerless.Killian gently pulled her into his embrace, trying to soothe her. "Don't worry," he murmured. "There has to be a way."Sheila looked up at him, her eyes brimming with hope. "That man is Uncle's colleague. Uncle must know something about him, some clues." She squeezed his hand. "Could you help me ask Uncle?"Killian gazed down at her, his voice strained as he finally said, "Okay.""Let's go, right now!" Sheila urged, already trying to pull away. "Dad's got Mom watching over him.""What time is it even?" Killian gently held her shoulders, keeping her in place. "Look how tired you are. You're still in your evening gown. Uncle should be asleep by now.
Andrew quickly replied to his message: "I've already arranged for him to leave. You don't need to worry about it, just pretend you know nothing. Uncle will handle everything, and even if something really goes wrong, I will bear the full responsibility."Killian saw the message, and his heart grew heavier.On one side was his uncle, who treated him like a father. On the other, the person he deeply loved.And he was indeed the beneficiary of it all.If the donor had been anyone else, he could have abandoned his conscience and covered everything up without a trace of guilt.But with Sheila, he simply couldn't remain indifferent.Killian's knuckles, gripping his phone, turned white from the force."Killian, who was that man my dad grabbed just now?"Sheila turned to look at him, but found him lost in thought, wondering what he was contemplating. She frowned slightly, then stood up and patted his arm. "What's wrong?"Killian snapped out of it, realizing Sheila was talking to him, and offer
Seventeen summers ago, in Lemoyne.That day, as Antony stepped out of his school gates, an unlicensed van screeched to a halt in front of him. Before he could even react, a hand clamped over his mouth and nose, dragging him into the vehicle. His consciousness rapidly blurred.When he next awoke, he was bound to an operating table, a blinding white light searing directly into his pupils.“What… what are you doing?!” He struggled against his restraints.At that moment, a young man in a white lab coat and mask exclaimed in shock, “Damn it, he has a peculiar constitution; the anesthetic isn’t working on him.”Another, older man, remained chillingly calm. “Secure his head.”The young man hesitated, “This… won’t this be too cruel for him?”The older man offered no reply. The next second, ignoring Antony’s screams and pleas, a scalpel sliced directly into the corner of his eye. To harvest his cornea, they completely disregarded the donor’s safety.For a full forty minutes, Antony, fully cons
Kane had told her the night before that he'd be attending a bachelor party thrown by his friends, but now, he was nowhere to be seen. Had he drunk too much?She clutched her bouquet, fighting back the tears welling in her eyes. Every minute of waiting felt like a stinging slap to her pride. But how could he make such a rookie mistake at a time like this? Or perhaps, he regretted it and no longer wanted to marry her?“Jocelyn.” A familiar voice suddenly resonated behind her.Jocelyn whirled around, seeing Ben standing by the door, having appeared seemingly out of nowhere. His eyes were bloodshot, yet his suit and tie were impeccable. “Look at the time. Kane still isn’t here? He clearly doesn't care. Are you still going to marry him?”Jocelyn instinctively took half a step back. “How did you get in here?”He gazed deeply into her eyes. “It’s not too late to cut your losses.”Jocelyn said, feeling mortified, “Are you here to mock me, or to crash the wedding?”“I’m here for the wedding,”
Sheila stood before the full-length mirror as her mother-in-law, Nicole, simultaneously placed the veil on her head. The wedding dress itself was also a personal design by Nicole, an internationally renowned designer.The gown's body was crafted from moonlight-white silk, intricately embroidered with scrolling lotus patterns in silver thread. Each petal was adorned with two deep-sea pearls, shimmering like a cascade of stars when she moved.The skirt comprised six layers of tulle that fanned out from her waist, the innermost layer embedded with tiny South African diamonds. In the dim light, they emitted a faint blue halo, as if she had draped the entire cosmos over herself.The veil was a marvel of ingenuity, woven from incredibly fine silver threads and edged with twelve teardrop-shaped sapphires. It trailed to the ground, and as she walked, the delicate chime of the colliding gemstones sounded like moonlight dancing on a lake.Even Sheila herself couldn't help but gasp in admiration
Ben's gaze lingered on her face for a long time, as if he wanted to engrave it into his very bones. He slowly closed his eyes, and when he reopened them, all that remained was boundless exhaustion and despair. He turned to Kane, his voice low but laced with undeniable ferocity, "If you dare harm her in the slightest, I swear I will kill you.""Get out! Don't you dare pretend!" Jocelyn shrieked, as if pouring all her grievances and rage onto Ben.Bang—The heavy wooden door slammed shut, severing the two worlds.Kane pulled Jocelyn into his embrace, resting his chin on the crown of her head. "I'm sorry, I let you suffer. I promise I'll work hard to make your parents accept us."Jocelyn couldn't hold on any longer. She clutched his waist tightly, tears gushing out and soaking his shirt. "Kane, I only have you left… sob, sob, sob…"Kane gently patted her back, the tenderness in his eyes slowly fading, replaced by a bottomless gloom. He gazed at the closed door, a barely perceptible curve
At that moment, in the back seat of the Maybach, Sheila's emotions had calmed down considerably, but she felt extremely embarrassed and ashamed that Killian had seen her in such a state.However, Killian stared at her swollen hand, his eyes icy cold, but his voice was very soft, "Who stepped on you
"Is this matter just going to fester then?" Evelyn demanded, her face turning green with anger.Kane: "So, what do you want me to do?"His attitude only fueled Evelyn's fury. "At the very least, apologize to our Lauren! She's your fiancée. You've wronged her. Doesn't she dese
"Don't worry," Killian said. "It's a sensitive time right now. Take a few days off and rest."In this situation, the only option she had was to temporarily take a break to avoid the media.Just then, Nicole called. Killian glanced at the phone before answering."Killian, what
The city lights twinkled as the massive cruise ship, like a colossal building, glided across the placid sea.Besides Ben and Killian, they had invited several friends, including Marina, and a few men and women whom Sheila didn't immediately recognize.However, her mental database co
