Chapter 152
Sandra walked in at that moment, spotting Seraphina standing in a corner. She quickly headed over
and took her hand
Seraphina slowly lifted her gaze and offered a faint smile
There was no news at the moment, and that in itself was somewhat good news
Sandra didn’t know what to say, so she just stood there in silence beside her.
A few minutester, Leandro finally appeared at the entrance of the emergency room.
The sight of him felt like a pir of strength to the Reynolds family who immediately surrounded him,
updating him on the situation
Leandro listened in silence, his expression grave. He turned his head and finally noticed Seraphina in
the corner.
Seraphina was leaning against the wall, standing quietly, her gaze calm as she watched the group of
people in front of her, her emotions unreadable
As her eyes met Leandro’s, she merely nced at him before looking away.
Sandra was also watching Leandro this man whom she had learned so much about from Seraphina’s
description and various news reports. But it was only today that she was seeing him up close for the
first time.
She was convinced in her heart that this man was no good, yet she found herself taken aback by his
aura at their first meeting.
Even without careful observation, it was clear that this man was indifferent yet dominant. Sandra had
met many rich heirs; some were arrogant, some were gentle, and some were overbearing, but few
were like Leandro.
He was like a long–reigning monarch, always self–centered and power–focused, unable to understand
or care about the troubles of ordinary people.
If he liked something, he could possess it all. If he didn’t, he could destroy it all.
This kind of man was heartless.
Almost as if to prove her thoughts right, Leandro nced at the corner and then asked in a deep voice,
“Where’s Lacy?”
Lacy, who was standing around the corner, came out trembling at the sound of Leandro’s voice, “Mr.
Reynolds…
Leandro looked at him, his gaze cold, “What happened?”
Lacy, with a dry mouth, managed to say. “Conway was taking a walk in the nursing home today. The
nurse went to get him some water, and I saw it was windy, so I went to fetch his jacket. I didn’t think
that he would fall down as soon as I left…
Leandro turned to the person next to him after hearing this, “Did you get that?”
Apanying him was not only Keen but also awyer from the Reynolds Group. Seeing the
situation, thewyer immediately nodded, “Yes, Mr. Reynolds.”
Leandro gave Lacy another look and fell silent.
Lacy felt weak under his gaze, and Keen together with thewyer took Lacy away
However, Keen returned soon after, nced at the lit light in the emergency room, hesitated for a
moment but still went over to Leandro, whispering, “Mr. Reynolds, there is a call from Starhaven.”
Bruce, standing nearby, heard this and frowned, “Why are you taking calls at a time like this?”
Leandro nced at him, “It’s not like I can be of any help here if I don’t take the call
After saying this, he took the phone from Keen and walked out.
Sandra, arm in arm with Seraphina, watched Leandro’s every action calmly until he left. Only then did
she turn to look at Seraphina again.
Seraphina had been looking at the door of the emergency room all this time, without sparing Leandro
an extra nce.
Two minutester, the door of the emergency room suddenly opened, everyone immediately crowded
around. Sandra instinctively wanted to pull Seraphina forward, but Seraphina remained standing still.
“Seraphina?”
Sandra turned to look at her. Seraphina merely looked at the backs of the crowd.
She heard Bruce asking the doctor about the situation, then she heard the doctor say, “We’re still doing
our best, but Conway’s heart has stopped several times I hope you’re prepared.”
Upon hearing this, the men of the Reynolds family managed to keep theirposure, but the women
had already started to cry uncontrobly.
Sandra looked at Seraphina worriedly, but Seraphina’s face remained calm. After a moment, she let out
a soft sigh.
“Seraphina.”
Seraphina didn’t move, her gaze somewhat vacant as she looked ahead, slowly saying, “Life and death
are fate, I understand that
Sandra didn’t dare to say anything more
After what felt like an eternity, the door to the emergency room opened again.
“Conway is awake!” The doctor sounded ted, “His condition is temporarily stable!”
Upon hearing this, the Reynolds family immediately rushed towards the emergency room, only to be
stopped by the doctor.
Then, Conway’s bed was wheeled out from the emergency room and, apanied by a crowd, was
pushed towards the ward.
Seraphina still stood in the corner, unmoving, until Sandra gently squeezed her hand. “Let’s go to the
ward”
Only then did Seraphina seem toe back to her senses, nodding and slowly making her way to the
ward.
The ward was crowded, and Seraphina stood at the door, trying to catch a glimpse of Conway through
the sea of people in front of her.
Not long after, the crowd around the bed parted to allow Seraphina a clear view of the bed
On the bed, Conwayy there, his face pale, but reaching out a trembling hand towards her.
“Seraphina, Conway is calling you” Bruce said.
Seraphina then walked into the room, making her way to Conway’s bed, and took his frail hand in hers.
Conway’s hand was cold, but hers was even colder, so much so that she felt warmth.

But as she held Conway’s hand, she didn’t say a word.
Conway just looked at her, giving a slight smile, “What’s up with you?”
Seraphina didn’t respond, but the next moment, hot tears uncontrobly slid down her face.
She kept her lips tightly shut staying silent, with tears continuously falling, just falling
“What are you crying for?” Nte said impatiently. “He’s fine, don’t make a scene here!”
But Seraphina seemed not to hear, she just looked at Conway, slowly beginning to sob out loud.
Everyone else in the room remained silent, with only the various sounds from Conway’s bedside
monitors echoing with her sobs in the air. Conway’s condition had already stabilized, yet she was
gradually losing control, crying like a little child, leaning on the side of Conway’s bed, tears and snot
running down her face
“Seraphina, it’s okay now, stop crying” Bruce stepped forward, lightly patting Seraphina’s back.
Everyone else looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do.
Only Conway didn’t stop her, letting her cry her heart out.
Outside the crowd, Sandra, hearing Seraphina’s sobs, struggled to bear it and ran out of the room.
She covered her mouth and hurriedly walked out, passing many ces, until finally, she ran into
Bowen’s arms in the garden.
“What happened?” Bowen saw her red eyes and the way she was biting her lip to hold back, and
quickly asked, “Is Seraphina’s grandpa not doing well?”
Seeing him, Sandra finally broke down and cried, struggling to say, “No…”
“Then why are you crying?” Bowen reached out to wipe the tears off her face.
Sandra looked up at him, her face streaked with tears, “Seraphina said, life and death are destined.
After her grandpa passes, she can be free, go wherever she wants. But when her grandpa really is
dying, she’s scared and can’t stop crying… I’ve never seen Seraphina cry like this. She’s lost so much,
but she’s never cried like this ”
Bowen, hearing this, silently held Sandra in his arms, gently stroking her head.
“She didn’t cry like this when she was kicked out by the Reynolds family. She wasn’t this upset when
she had no ce in the Wilson family, even when she lost Betty, she didn’t cry like this…” Sandra was
also crying uncontrobly, “She really can’t lose anyone else. She can’t lose anymore…
Bowen silently held her tighter, softlyforting, “It’s okay, everything will get better..”
“Bowen Sandra called his name in a hoarse voice.
“It’s okay, stop crying” Bowen said, “You need tofort her… If you cry like this, she’ll be even more
upset…”
In the dim garden lights of the night, Leandro walked past them from the back corridor, heading straight
towards the hospital building.
Bowen looked at Leandro’s retreating figure, signaling Sandra to look.
Sandra followed his gesture, turning to look at Leandro, her tears suddenly stopping.
“It’s all his fault, all his faultSandra said through gritted teeth, crying.
Bowen held her closer again, lightly patting her back, “it’s okay, stop crying…”
When Leandro walked into Conway’s room, Seraphina was still crying.
Everyone else seemed to want to step forward tofort her, but Conway gestured for them to leave
first.
No one wanted to leave.
Until Leandro came in, saw the situation, and slowly said, “you guys should go back, it’s quitete,
don’t disturb his rest.”
“All right then” Ferne nced at Seraphina who was still sobbing by the bed, her eyes also bing
moist as she spoke, “Why are you crying so loud, as if you’ve been greatly wronged…”
As she spoke, she seemed unable to bear being affected by Seraphina’s emotions and turned to leave
the room.
After Ferne left, everyone else also gradually left, leaving only Seraphina by the bedside.
One of Conway’s hands was held by Seraphina, his other hand struggling to stroke her head, but
Seraphina’s sobbing never stopped
Leandro sat on the sofa opposite the bed, quietly watching all this.
After a while, Seraphina’s sobs gradually lessened, but she still rested her head on Conway’s hand, not
lifting it.
“My hand’s been soaking in your tears for a while now.” Conway slowly began to speak, Tm fine, why
are you crying?”
Finally, Seraphina slowly lifted her head, her eyes and nose both red from crying, and after seeing
Conway clearly, she finally spoke her first words, “I just want to cry.”
