Chapter 439
"Stay with me, Sharon..."
Someone called her name in her ear.
However, she really wanted to sleep. Her eyelids were so heavy that she could not open her eyes.
She thought that as long as she was asleep, she would feel much morefortable...
"Don''t sleep, don''t close your eyes..." The man''s low and hoarse voice sounded in her ear as he
called her name. "Honey, don''t sleep now. I''ll take you back. I''ll take you to find the kids. They need
their Mommy. Don''t sleep, Sharon..."
Gradually, Sharon couldn''t hear any more sounds, her eyes shrouded by darkness, her thoughts
sucked into the abyss. She was being swallowed bit by bit.
In Beachmarsh City.
A weekter.
"Beep beep..."
After opening her eyes, Sharon felt as if she had slept for a whole century. As she slowly regained
her consciousness, she heard something, and even smelled the hospital''s unique disinfectant.
The only thing she saw opening her eyes was the hospital ceiling, and some ring light so bright it
caused her to wince her eyes.
Opening her eyes again, she met with a pair of surprised eyes. Sharon''s lips parted, but before she
could say anything, there was a metal nking sound-the tray in the nurse''s hand fell to the ground.
With that, the nurse immediately ran out.
What was that?
Was she that scary? Why was the nurse so scared the moment she saw her opening her eyes?
After a while, a group of people in white coats came rushing in. Seeing Sharon struggling to sit up in
bed, the doctors were so shocked that they gasped.
"Lie down, lie down!"
Without any exnation, Sharon was then pushed back to the bed. The doctors and nurses didn''t
dare to exert their full strength on her. Their movements were gentle as if they were handling
porcins that would break at the slightest touch.
"Is there anything wrong?"
"Does your wound still hurt?"
"Do you have that nauseating feeling?"
"Also, do you..."
Several doctors examined her from head to toe. After making sure that she was really awake and
there was no serious injury, they breathed a long sigh of relief.
After the doctors had left, a nurse was left behind to look after her. It was the same nurse who was
shocked by Sharon''s awaken.
"Hey, umm..."
Sharon licked her lips. "Is there any water? I''m thirsty."
"Oh, yes, sure! There''s some."
The nurse immediately took a cup of warm water and wet Sharon''s dry lips with a cotton swab, and
then fed her small mouthfuls using a spoon.
After drinking the water, Sharon felt much better. "What time is it now?"
She asked the nurse.
"Miss Cruz, you have been asleep for about a week. It''s now 8:30 in the morning. I came to check
the room, and I saw you open your eyes." The nurse stayed by her bedside for a moment. "We
have already informed Mr. Jones. I believe he wille soon. Miss Cruz, don''t worry."

Sharony there, listening to the nurse''s voice. She felt her eyelids had once again be heavy,
and she wanted to sleep. It was probably because her body had yet to recover fully.
It turned out that Stanley was not there; no wonder she didn''t see him when she opened her eyes.
After replying to the nurse with a hum, she moved her lips again and asked, "Could you draw the
curtains for me? It''s ring..."
"Sure, Miss Cruz. If you want to rest, then you should rest. Don''t force yourself to stay awake. Your
body is currently in the recovery period, so it''s normal for you to feel sleepy..."
Sharon was gradually falling asleep, and she could no longer make out what the nurse was saying
next.
However, it was a restless sleep as she kept having shbacks; it was like watching a movie. Her
head ached so much as if it were going to explode.
Gunshot...
Explosion...
Shawn''s voice....
In her dream, Shawn looked at her with a smile and said, "Sharon, you have to live well."
"Sharon, I''m sorry..."
And...
"Sharon, I love you..."
After that, he grabbed the bomb from her hand and pushed her to Stanley...
"Boom!"
The moment she threw herself at Stanley, there was a loud explosion behind her.
"Ah..."
Sharon screeched in a low voice. Her entire body was drenched in a cold sweat as she woke up
from her dream, and before she could even open her eyes, a warm sensation came on her lips and
skin. She was being kissed.
This made her dejected.
She was a patient. How could someone take advantage of her like that?
A handsome man with profound facial features appeared in front of her. Sensing that she had
woken up, the man who took advantage of her trembled a little and identally knocked his teeth
on her upper lip. Sharon groaned.
When she snorted, the force on her lips disappeared, and a deep and hoarse male voice rang in her
ear.
"Are you feeling any difort?"
Sharon had no strength; she sounded like a weak kitten. "You''re... so heavy..."
The man on top of her stopped for a second and then got up immediately.
Sharon then took a deep breath and came back to
her senses.
She raised her eyes and looked into the man''s deep, pitch-ck eyes.
Her gaze was reciprocated by Stanley, and he took a moment to stare at her.
Just when Sharon was about to open her mouth and speak, her vision suddenly turned blurry. Her
pupils contracted, and her extended hand began to tremble. "Come...e here."
Stanley''s lips curled into a smile as he looked at her. "What''s wrong? You should rest first."
Overwhelmed, Sharon pulled his arm, struggling to sit up. Stanley''s expression changed, and he
immediately got up to help her. Then, Sharon took the opportunity to pull him over and point at his
hair with an astonished look in her eyes, "How... is it all grey now?"
Stanley''s hair had indeed turned fully grey.
Thest time she saw him in Tasnil, only half of his hair was grey. This time, when she opened her
eyes again, the other half of his hair had turned grey as well.
Sharon felt as if an invisible force was clenching her heart; she could barely catch her breath. "What
exactly is going on?"
Before Stanley could speak, a long and drawn-out voice came from the side, "You two really act like
there''s no one else here, huh? I''ve been sitting here for half a day, you know. Am I not visible now?"
Liam was smiling as he said, "His grey hair is pretty peculiar. It grows greyer every time I see him.
In fact, there was a strand of ck hair yesterday, but when I met him this morning, it''spletely
grey! Doesn''t he look like an old man? You wouldn''t think he''s my brother at all..."
"Shut up!"
Stanley nced over with sharp eyes, warning him not to talk too much. Sharon had just woken up
and needed to rest. She shouldn''t be bothered with this matter.
Liam shrugged. Without saying another word, he raised his legs and ced them on the coffee
table.
Sharon looked at Stanley without hesitation and asked in a muffled voice, "Are you going to see a
doctor?"
"I''ve seen one. Don''t overthink it." Stanley helped her lie down. "I''m also taking medicine. It won''t
take long for it to turn ck again."
"Really?"
"That''s right."
"Humph, do you think it''ll really turn ck just because you say so?" Stanley threw a pillow at Liam
with a flip hand. The pillownded on Liam''s face, causing the noisy man to shut his mouth.
