Taken aback, Carlos moved to embrace the rushing figure of Nina. However, Nina was quick to
dodge him, immediately twisting open the door and darting inside.
Meanwhile, the sound from within reached their cars.
“Sarah, this is my final request,” Bt said weakly. “My parents aren’t the sharpest tools in the
shed, they don’t understand theplexities of the situation. Only by doing this can they be
reassured, and I can leave this world with peace of mind. After all, everything will eventually belong
to our Nina. Consider this myst act of willfulness. Get awyer, I don’t have much time left.
Surely, you don’t want me to die discontented, do you?”
“But…t–this doesn’t make any sense!” Sarah choked out in agony.
“I…” Cough, cough, cough… “Please, just agree to it, consider it as me begging you!” Cough,
cough, cough…
“Don’t do this… All right, all right, I agree. I will call thewyer right now.” Sarah’s crying abruptly
stopped as Nina embraced her. “Mom, don’t!”
The trio were ted that they had finally managed to persuade Sarah when Nina butted in. They
were instantly taken aback and furious. At such a critical moment, thest thing they needed was a
sudden setback.
“Nina?” Sarah was feeling upset.
After all, her husband was on his deathbed, and he wanted a divorce just before his impending
demise. It was a situation most people would find unbearable. She could only assume that his
impending death had filled him with fear and confusion. Perhaps, in his misguided devotion, he had
been swayed by his parents‘ persuasive words, wanting to provide them with some sense of
stability. That was the only exnation for such an irrational act.
Although Sarah was certain that she would never stoop to seizing her husband’s inheritance, her
inws remained unconvinced. Their continued fussing was nothing short of tormenting her
husband in his final hours.
“Whatever,” she thought, “it’s all a mere formality in the end. If they insist on doing this, I don’t really
care. To us, we are still husband and wife. This so–called divorce is nothing more than a legal
assurance for their
assets.”
Faced with her husband of over a decade on the verge of death, even a strong–willed woman like
Sarah couldn’t question his final request.

However, seeing her daughter’s reaction, Sarah assumed that Nina had identally overheard
their talk of divorce and had misunderstood. She quicklyforted, “Nina, don’t cry. Your dad and I
aren’t really getting a divorce. We’re still your parents who love you the most.”
Bt also huffed, “Nina, don’t be stubborn. Your mom and I have discussed this. Don’t waste any
more time.”
However, Nina was shaking uncontrobly. She was practically speechless, words teetering on the
edge of her lips, yet she found herself unable to utter them due to her overwhelming emotions. She
turned to look at the frail man on the hospital bed. Despite his struggle to even speak, he was still
painstakingly using hisst moments to manipte her and her mother, paving the way for his
mistress and their illegitimate
children

Nina, being part of an affluent family, naturally witnessed more of such a scenario than her peers of
the
same age.
Moreover, those people had clearly outlined the pros and cons during their conversation. Even
though she didn’t fullyprehend, she understood that if she allowed her parents to divorce, it
would be equivalent to her and her mother being ruthlessly bullied by bad people.
“I don’t agree, Dad. Are you really divorcing Mom? And you’re asking her to leave without
anything?” Nina’s eyes were blurred with tears as she looked at Bt.
When Bt met Nina’s gaze, he unexpectedly felt a moment of unease.
However, when he thought about it, at least Nina had Sarah as a mother. But what about his other
kids? It was essential to pave the way for them.
“Dad! You really n on leaving everything to someone else!” Nina eximed.
People who did wrong were naturally more sensitive, so Bt’s parents were instantly provoked.
“Your father is on his deathbed, what do you have in mind for us, your old folks? Since when were
we strangers? How can you be so cold–hearted at such a young age! Are you afraid that someone
will take your money? Do you still have your father and us in your heart?”
Upon reaching the door, Isabe, having heard what transpired, was cursing them inwardly.
Isn’t it you two old fogies who are terrified of someone stealing your money? It’s your family of three
who doesn’t care about Nina, right? You beasts! How can you be so heartless?
The rest of the Quirk family were at the door when they heard Isabe’s curses. They were all
stunned, after all, it was rare for Isabe to be this fierce.
What on earth has the three members of the Eaton family done to upset Isabe? It seems like
they’ve really gotten on her bad side. They recalled Isabe mentioning something about Bt
having an affair and illegitimate children in the past. Could this incident be rted?
