Chapter 639


    Outside the ward, Maurice grabbed Jonathan by the cor and pinned him to the wall.


    He then threw a punch at his face, and knocked him to the floor.


    Anger could be seen on Maurice’s face, and the veins on his temples looked like they were about to


    pop.


    “How dare youe to me? Do you honestly believe that I won’t harm you?”


    Just thinking that Jonathan hurt the woman he loved made Maurice wish that he could point a gun at


    this bastard’s face and blow his brains out.


    It seemed that Jonathan expected that Maurice would lose his cool. Compared to thetter, he was


    able to stand as calmly as possible. He wiped away the blood dripping from the corner of his lips,


    disdaining Maurice.


    Afterwards, he chuckled, albeit oddly.


    Annoyed by theughter, Maurice gave him another solid punch.


    “What are youughing at?” he asked.


    “You know nothing!” Jonathan shouted back. “That day, I really thought for a moment that she had


    died.”


    He soon drifted into quiet contemtion.


    His memories brought him back to the day Eliana underwent surgery. When he entered the operating


    room, he found her lying motionless beneath a white cloth.


    Everything was just like the time when his wife died, and to him, it felt like he was reliving that


    nightmare once more. The pain of losing the woman he loved overwhelmed him and broke his heart


    again.


    Jonathan began to remember what happened five years ago. Back then, he lost his beloved Meg. All


    the days that came after that fated day, he lived dully and monotonously.


    Until one day, he saw a woman in white, lying unconscious on the shore of his private beach.


    Jonathan froze when he saw her. Her familiar face left him breathless and his mind went nk.


    “Meg!” he shouted.


    He stumbled towards her and picked her up.


    But when he saw that the woman wasn’t Meg, his heart sank.


    However, Jonathan was even more shocked to see the resemnce of this woman to histe wife.


    She was soaked, and her face was abnormally ruddy due to the high favor; but no doubt about it, she


    resembled his wife so much.


    Tears were rolling down Jonathan’s face. While he was lost in thought, he felt like his beloved wife had


    returned.


    Every single day since Meg died, he pleaded to God with all his heart and soul that his wife might one


    day return to him.


    And when Jonathan saw Eliana, he felt like God had answered his prayers.


    It was so great that Meg had returned to him.


    Thereafter, Jonathan took Eliana back and asked the best doctor in the hospital to treat her. It was then


    that the doctor told him that she was pregnant.


    Not long after Eliana woke up, she told Jonathan that her full name was Eliana Pierce.


    Back then, he was taken by surprise. Herst name wasn’t White, and yet she looked a lot like Meg.


    He thought that the two must be rted one way or another.


    After finding out about Eliana’s background, Jonathan was almost certain that her mother, Ingrid, was


    the White family’s daughter who left their household years ago.


    Due to personal reasons, he concealed that information and he told Eliana that she was pregnant.


    Jonathan had always been a steady shoulder for her to lean on. He once told her that he could take


    care of her children with her.


    Eventually, he resolved that he would keep Eliana with him at all costs. He was even willing to raise two


    kids who weren’t rted to him by blood.


    However, fate always yed twisted jokes on people. He didn’t expect that in order to conduct an


    investigation on what had happened to the Pierce family, Eliana would rather return home with her kids


    than to ask him for help.


    Thereafter, everything unfolded.


    Jonathan contemted about the past, lost in thought.


    Maurice, on the other hand, didn’t give a damn about Jonathan’s sadness. His main concern right now


    was what Jonathan had done to Eliana.


    “Jonathan, what did you do to Eliana?” he growled.


    He grabbed Jonathan by the cor once more, visibly enraged. It looked like he would snap thetter’s


    neck at any moment.


    Unafraid and unfazed, Jonathan even goaded Maurice. “You feel like a big strong man, don’t you,


    Maurice? Since you took her away, shouldn’t you be the one to solve that problem on your own?”


    Maurice was even more furious now.


    “I’m going to kill you!”


    He raised his fist, intent on making Jonathan pay for the price of hurting Eliana.
