Chapter 740


    Elliot had no way of confirming that the maroon box he lost was in Charlie''s hands.


    He also could not make sure that Wanda would follow his orders obediently.


    The reason he was telling her about this was so that he could use her to find out the whereabouts of


    the box.


    The theft of the box might have happened a long time ago, but it would still asionallye up to


    torment him.


    That box was like a ticking time bomb, and he did not know when it would go off.


    He had thought about it for a long time but was still clueless.


    Who was the one who went into his study and took that box?


    If someone wanted to bring him down, they could reveal the information in the box at any time and ruin


    him!


    However, the person who took the box had never contacted him nor revealed the box''s contents to the


    public.


    If that person did not want to harm him, then why did they take the box in the first ce?


    It was such a pickle that he wondered if nobody had actually stolen the box, but there was a glitch in


    the space-time continuum instead!


    However, everything that happened in reality continuously reminded him that there was no such thing.


    If there truly was a glitch in the space-time continuum, then why did everything that happened made

    him feel the true malice of


    the world?


    Shea arrived at Wesley’s ce that morning.


    At noon, he personally cooked her avish lunch.


    "Are you not feeling well, Shea? You''re unusually quiet today."


    Wesley ce the food in front of Shea, then tenderly examined her.


    Herplexion was paler than before after the blood donation.


    However, it had recovered quite a lotpared to yesterday.


    "I can’t marry you, Wesley." Shea picked up her fork and lowered her gaze. "My brother said that the


    person you like is Avery. You might like me, but you like her more."


    Her words made the calmness on his face vanish.


    "You told your brother about this?"


    "I identally told him." Shea sighed, then said, "It''s the same no matter when I tell him. If he won''t let


    me marry you, then it must be for my own good."


    "That''s right. It''s indeed for your own good. I''ve told you before that being by his side is the safest thing


    for you." Then, Wesley continued casually, "As for Avery, I’ve always admired her. She''s a good person


    :d*


    Shea lifted her head and gazed carefully at him.


    "I''d be happy for an entire day if she looked over at me a few times. I turn into an idiot in front of her."


    At this point, Wesley mocked himself and said, "I might like her, but I know that she doesn''t belong to


    me because I can''t give her happiness. Which is why I let go of that wishful thinking."


    "Don''t say that, Wesley. You''re also a good person." Shea felt a little sad.


    "I told you before that I won''t get married or have kids in this life, Shea. That’s why we can be good


    friends for the rest of our lives."


    "Are you not getting married and having kids for the sake of being friends with me?" Shea said


    dejectedly. "I don''t want that... Other people have kids, but you don''t..."


    "The meaning of life is not necessarily to reproduce." Wesley ced a smoked rib on her te, then


    said, "If I cared about marriage at all, then I would probably have more kids than Avery does by now."


    "Alright! I''ll still wish you happiness if you


    ever decide to get married one day," Shea said seriously. "I''ve dragged my brother down, but I don''t


    want to drag you down." "You’re not dragging anybody down," Wesley said sternly. "In the time that


    you''ve depended on your brother to live, you were also his spiritual support."


    Shea did not quite understand, but smiled sweetly anyway.


    When Elliot arrived at the hospital that evening, the doctor rushed to him before he could find Avery.


    "Mr. Foster, the experts havee to a unanimous decision after monitoring Robert''s reaction to the


    blood transfusion in thest couple of days," the doctor said with a heavy expression on his face. "A


    blood change would have an effect on Robert''s condition. The reason why thest two transfusions


    aren''t showing obvious results is because there isn''t enough blood. If you want your son to recover,


    then he will need aplete blood change..."


    Elliot''s Adam''s apple rolled in his throat. Then, he asked in a hoarse voice, "How much blood would a


    <pplete blood change take?"
