Chapter 11
Sean, however, seemed oblivious to their exclamations and was about to leave barefoot. But due to the car accident, he had just stood up and felt an unbearable pain in his right leg and ribs, causing him to instantly collapse hack onto the hospital bed.
He still had bloodshot eyes and struggled to get up, but the doctor who came to check on him pushed him back and examined his condition again. The nurse then administered the medication to him again, and the doctor scolded him angrily
“I almost died in a car accident and just woke up wanting to run around recklessly, even pulling out the needles. Don’t you care about your life? Don’t you know it takes a hundred days to recover from bone and muscle injuries? And you guys, knowing that the patient has a weak heart, why would you still do something to stimulate him?”
The doctor kept on talking and giving detailed instructions on how to take care of the patient. After finishing, he shook his head and left the ward again, looking for someone to pay attention to this room before leaving
In the room, Sean was breathing heavily, looking quite disturbed. He still couldn’t believe that Allana had dared to block him…
As for the matter of divorce, he didn’t believe a single word of it.
Aliana couldn’t bear to divorce herself, as she was deeply in love with herself. With this thought in mind, her emotions finally eased a bit, and she reached. out her hand towards Jonas,
Jonas astutely handed over the divorce certificate, observing Aurora, who had been ignored by him throughout, and the group of his henchmen surrounding him, exchanging glances.
Aurora never expected to be completely ignored. Just yesterday, he was willing to risk his life to protect her. Today, when he heard her say that she was willing to be with him, he didn’t feel the slightest bit of happiness. And now, he’s still constantly holding onto Allana?
The jealousy in her heart was about to materialize. She tightly bit her lip, filled with envy and hatred towards Aliana.
It’s all because of this Allana. If it wasn’t for her causing a divorce at this time, how could Sean’s attention be drawn away by her?
Η
“What’s so appealing about a stupid divorce certificate? If she wants to leave, let her go, I’ll always
“Sean…” She pouted, her voice filled with resentment, “W be by your side.”
If the Sean from the past heard Aurora say that she would always be by his side, he would probably be so happy that he would immediately break up with Aliana, rum around and marry her. But at this moment, he couldn’t feel any trace of happiness, he just looked at the divorce certificate in his hand and could only sneer.
It was quite realistic, but he never signed the divorce settlement document and he never went to the courthouse. How could this divorce certificate be real when only Allana was there?
He didn’t respond to Aurora’s words, but instead muttered in a resentful tone, “I’d like to see if she really has the guts. If she’s capable, she shouldn’t come back at all!”
Although he lowered his voice, the people present were not far away, so naturally they could hear his words clearly, and they all started to mediate “Yeah, Allana likes Sean so much, how could she possibly let go of him? I bet within two weeks. She will definitely come back!”
“Two weeks? Lucas Fletcher, you’re too timid. I bet for one week!”
“I bet for three days!”
A group of people were making a lot of noise, which actually dispelled the uneasiness in Sean’s heart. He casually threw the divorce certificate aside, but couldn’t help but think,
Perhaps it was because he saved Aurora that made her jealous and angry again. This time, she even made a fake divorce certificate to scare him. He couldn’t be easily fooled, so he would have to give her a good cold shoulder afterwards. She should also know that throwing tantrums is okay, but it’s not good to make a fuss about something like this.
Thinking, he took out his phone and dialed a number, “Can you help me check where Aliana’s divorce certificate came from?“4
Once be obtained the evidence, let’s see how she would still try to argue.
Chapter 12
The matter was casually brushed aside like this, and the brothers tacitly agreed not to mention Aliana anymore, only waiting for the moment when the couldn’t resist coming back, so they could mock her properly.
As time passed day by day, three days, one week, two weeks, and even a month went by, and she never appeared again.
Everyone watched as his face grew darker day by day, and they kept talking about other things to divert his attention. Aurora also stayed by his side every day, taking care of him with great thoughtfulness, making others envious.
Only the person who was taken care of, clearly received positive feedback from their long–awaited crush, but their mind was full of thoughts about Allana, and there was no sign of happiness at all.
He went from being confident at the beginning to hesitating later on, until almost a month later when he was about to be discharged from the hospital, she still hadn’t come to see him, and a hint of self–doubt inexplicably arose in his heart.
Did she really give up on herself? But how is that possible?
Just then, the long–silent phone finally rang. He acted faster than his mind, quickly picking up the call, and suddenly felt a wave of relief.
“Aliana, did you still remember to call me?”
Upon hearing this name, the group of brothers and Aurora’s attention was immediately drawn to Sean, who was on the phone. They saw in the next second that the slightly joyful expression that had just appeared on his face instantly faded away.
A group of people looked at each other, you looked at me and I looked at you, not knowing what had happened.
“Mr. Castaneda,” Billy’s weak voice came from the other end of the phone, and everyone finally realized that the person calling was not Allana. No wonder his expression was so grim.
On the other end of the phone, Billy, unaware of the situation here, calmly relayed all the information she had found, “Ms. Dunlap did receive a genuine divorce certificate. Regarding the divorce settlement, the lawyer explained that they had sought your consent initially, and you personally agreed that it could be signed by your wife.”
“Bullshit!” Sean heard Billy say that he agreed to let Aliana sign the divorce settlement on his behalf. He immediately became furious and couldn’t hold back, and he directly cursed, which scared Billy so much that they dared not speak again, “When did I agree…”
Chapter 11
The sentree was not yet finished, but the dusty memendes suddenly came flooding back.
Two months ago, Allana did indeed give him a phone call, saying that she had something to discuss with him. At that time, he was accompanying Aurora, I just been. Lin a car accident, so he didn’t have time to go back and see her. He simply said he was busy and told her to decide for herself and just go
- d. “When was the agreement signed?“
Maths this in mind, his face suddenly turned ugly, but he still couldn’t give up and asked,
‘Billy’s response shattered his hopes completely. Sem felt conflicted, unsure whether to be angry at Aliana for plotting against him or at her for already planning the divorce since that time.
– did indeed become strange during that period of time.
That why exactly is that?
At that time, Mora had just returned as well. She had only been pulled to donate blood once by him, and just because of this, she wanted a divorce? And she was so determined, not regretting it even within this month?
Sean always felt like he had overlooked something. His breath was unsteady, and his emotions were equally restless. Aurora sensed his irritation at the moment and, recalling what Tilly had just said, assumed that he seas upset because he had been tricked. She quickly reassured him, “Sean, it’s her problem if she doesn’t know how to appreciate. You must be careful. Your heart is not well, and it wouldn’t be good if something bad happened because of
This was originally just a comforting word, but it seemed to remind him, clearing away the heavy fog in front of him.
He suddenly remembered that on the day of blood donation, Aliana had asked him a very strange question.
“I have only one question, four years ago you underwent a heart transplant surgery, what was the name of the person who donated the organ?”
“I only knew that his last name was Qi,
“Understood, thank you.”
“Why are you asking about this?”
The questions and answers of that day resurfaced in his mind. It was also from that day onwards that Alam, who used to always need to listen to his heartbeat to fall asleep, suddenly didn’t want to listen to his heartbeat anymore. The Aliana who used to be completely obedient to him, suddenly started rejecting all his proposals.
Even her sudden decision to divorce happened during that period.
“Sean, what’s wrong with you?” Jonas, the leader, asked cautiously as he watched Sean suddenly fall into silence, his face becoming increasingly grim This disrupted the orderly thoughts that Sean had carefully arranged.
Seal didn’t even dare to think about it. What exactly was she trying to confirm when she said that on that day?
He could only console himself constantly, it’s impossible, she loved him so much, how could it be because of other reasons?
“Get out, all of you
That being said, his inner restlessness did not diminish in the slightest, and he even began to rush people. Seeing his current bad mood, Jonas and the others dared not stay any longer and quickly left the ward. In an instant, there were only two people left in the room, Sean and Aurora.
He turned his head and saw Aurora, whose eyes had turned red because of his words. He paused for a moment and concealed his impatience in his heart
Aliana never used to be like this, she would never cry over a single remark about her attitude. She always knew her limits, except for that one time with the necklace, she hardly ever brought her small emotions to herself.
Of course, the subsequent jealousy doesn’t count,
But after all, ilar was someone he had been thinking about for so many years. In the end, he couldn’t be too firm with her. He sighed and said, “You go back first, I’m a bit tired and want to rest for a while.”
or Allana”
“As for other matters, let’s not mention them anymore. I had no intention of divorcing
After saying that, he turned away and stopped looking at her, but Aurora suddenly widened her eyes in disbelief when she heard those words. “Seen, what do you mean? You don’t intend to divorce her, so what does that make our time together?”
He fell silent for a moment, still not looking at , but replied with his eyes closed, “I just see you as a friend.”
“Friends?” Aurora suddenly steered, pushing, the back of her chair as she stood up, causing a harsh creaking sound. However, both of them seerned to ignore it. Her paze fixed firmly on his back as she followed up with a question, “You said we’re just friends, but I wonder, does Mr. Bo treat his friends
怕
“A friend fell ill and dragged his anemic wife to donate blood. He took care of everything for a whole week, but showed no concern or interest in his wife after she had donated blood.”
“Would one leave his wife alone on the mountaintop just to attend a friend’s gathering?”
“Would you stay behind, enduring humiliation, just because of a friend’s remark that made you want to have fun?”
“Would let their own parents give the family heirloom to a friend instead of their wife, and even ignore it when their wife almost drowned in water just to vent their anger at a friend, and even declare that they are not allowed to rescue her?
“Would you sacrifice your life to save a friend in front of your wife?”
Sean’s face gradually turned pale in Aurora’s questioning, until this moment, he finally realized how cruel his actions had been to Aliana.
What was he thinking at that time?
He just felt that Aliana, being herself, would never leave him, so he acted recklessly. Therefore, when he noticed her abnormality later on, he would still try to comfort her.
But he had liked Aurora for so long, so long that she had become an obsession in his heart, and his favoritism towards her had become a habit. Therefore, he would still subconsciously choose her first. However, it wasn’t until Allana left this time that he finally realized that the one he couldn’t live without was actually Aliana
“It I did anything in the past that made you misunderstand, I want to apologize.”
Chapter 14
Sean pursed his lips, dared not to meet Aurora’s gaze, but felt increasingly guilty towards Allana in his heart.
If she had never left and had stayed by his side, perhaps when he heard Aurora say she wanted to be with him, maybe he would have gladly accepted.
And the evasive look he had also chilled Aurora’s heart completely, causing her red lips to tremble slightly with anger. After a while, she suddenly burst
into laughter
“Alright, Sean, consider me blind. I can’t believe I actually fell for a man like you.” She stormed off in anger, but when she reached the door of the hospital room, she suddenly turned back to look at him. “Sean, you’re just a despicable person. You deserve to never be with the person you truly like!–
After saying that, she turned around and left. The door was forcefully closed with a loud bang as she did so.
Sean’s heart suddenly trembled, unsure whether it was because of the sound of the door closing or because of her words.
The ward was finally empty, leaving only him. He lay on the hospital bed, tossing and turning, but his heart couldn’t calm down. After a long time, he picked up his phone again and made another call to Billy.
“Go and investigate Madam’s past, from birth until now, every detail, I want to know it all”
Sean didn’t wait for long. The next morning, before Jonas and his friends arrived, Billy had already sent all the information.
The information was flipped through page by page, and his expression gradually began to darken.
The information in the records detailed that Aliana used to have a childhood sweetheart boyfriend named Aaron, who was considered by people around them as the perfect couple. They knew and loved each other for thirteen years, and were just one step away from entering the realm of marriage.
Unfortunately, the heavens did not fulfill their wishes. Four years ago, a sudden car accident shattered their lives. Aaron died in that accident, trying to protect her.
After he died, his parents chose to fulfill his last wish and donated his heart. It was also during that time that Sean suddenly found a matching heart and successfully survived. It was that same year when she came to his side.
Everything finally became clear, but the person who donated the heart to him was not Aaron. Looking back on her question about who donated the heart to her, she now realizes that she made a mistake during her investigation, which led her to mistakenly believe that Aaron’s heart was donated to him
No wonder she suddenly appeared by his side, pursuing him so crazily.
No wonder, after they got together, her favorite thing was lying in his arms and listening to his heartbeat.
No wonder she never approached him again after she found out that the person who donated her heart was surnamed Qi.
He suddenly remembered the argument she had with Aurora over a necklace. When he asked if it was just a necklace, she broke down and shouted, “Is
that all it is?” It was a necklace given to her by the person she loved the most. When he said he would give her another one, he saw a flicker of astonishment in her eyes.
Thinking back to the day we played Truth or Dare, when she was asked if her favorite person was present, she didn’t hesitate to answer, “No, they’re
She didn’t deceive him after all, it was just a misunderstanding on his part.
Sean put down the documents and tried his best to suppress his emotions, but in the end, his eyes still turned red.
“Mr. Castaneda, are you alright?”
Seeing that he was not in the right mood, Billy timidly spoke up, but he ignored him and just waved his hand, signaling Billy to leave on his own. With the signal, Billy stopped asking any further questions and prepared to leave. Just as he reached the doorway, he heard Sean seemingly remember something and suddenly called out to him
“Go and check again the person who received Aaron’s heart donation is he now in Hazelville
“Okay, Mr. Castaneda ”
The door was gently closed, and instantly, the ward tell into silence. The silent atmosphere finally made his emotions unable to be suppressed any longer, and poured out.
He raised his hand and helplessly covered his face, suppressing the pouring cry
He used to think that he was the one who could leave at any time, but unfortunately, Allana loved him so much that he kept her by his side for a while. He thought that even if they got divorced, he could still support her financially if she couldn’t live without him
Now it seems that he was just being sentimental
