Chapter 923


    Holden seemed to realize he might have said too much and quickly switched topics.


    "You''re always screwing things up! You''ve let this nasty woman, Darlene, mess with us for so long, just


    look at all the trouble you''ve caused!"


    "Grandpa!"


    Lan’s voice shot up, his chest heaving with anger.


    "You mean Coco''s former owner is the guy Maja into, right?"


    Holden stood up, leaning on his cane, clearly not wanting to get involved any further.


    "It''s just a guess"


    "A guess?"


    His voice trembled. If this were true, it would be so ironic.


    He had suffered through his allergies to take Coco to the vet, only to end up in the hospital himself.


    He had talked about Coco with Maja, hoping for any kind of response.


    And now Coco turned out to be a gift from the man she''s into?


    If Coco''s around, she''ll never forget that guy.


    He felt so foolish to be bothered by a dog his rival gave to the girl he liked.


    numb and speechless.


    He remembered how she had called out an unfamiliar name while he was taking care of her in the


    hospital. He had felt upset and asked her whose name it was, was it her first boyfriend?


    She said it was the name of Coco''s previous owner.


    She cleverly dodged the question without admitting that the man was her first love. She was smart.


    When the truth was revealed, his eyes turned cold and deep.


    Holden had already left, leaving the room quiet.


    Everyone could tell something was wrong withn, but nobody dared to approach him.


    Jeff nodded and quickly ran forward to push the wheelchair.


    His heart ached as if it were being stabbed by a nail.


    Half an hourter, he arrived at the pet hospital and saw Maja waiting in the lobby.


    The pet hospital only had two floors. Maja was sitting quietly in a chair, unaware of his arrival.


    The storm inn''s eyes seemed to be brewing when he saw her.


    He signaled Jeff to stop, then slowly pushed his wheelchair towards her.


    Maja heard a noise and looked up at him.


    you are into?"


    Maja didn''t know how to respond. Just then, the doctor came out, and she immediately got up to ask


    about Coco.


    Butn grabbed her wrist tightly.


    "Is that true?"


    Maja instinctively pulled her hand away.


    "Maja, if it''s true, I''d rather Coco be dead now."


    Maja stiffened. At such a crucial time, hearing such words fromn made her feel both extremely angry

    and extremely sad. Even now,n was still jealous of her first boyfriend,pletely ignoring the fact


    that she might lose Coco at any moment!


    Maja held back her anger and responded coldly, "In my heart, Coco''s life is more important than your


    child"


    Words can be sweet as sugar but also sharp as a knife.


    People hurt each other with words all the time, there''s no mercy involved.
