Chapter 378 Sharon''s Sudden Death (Part Three)


    "Yes," she replied with a forced smile, but her eyes filled with sadness. "When I fell down, you weren''t


    there," she used him.


    Tears began to pool in her eyes. "Brian, you said when I could not see, you would stay with me. But


    you were gone. You weren''t here," Becky''s voice cracked.


    Her words crushed his heart and Brian''s face crumpled. He looked at Becky''s sad face and felt guilty.


    She was the woman who stayed with him through tough times and the woman he cared for in the past.


    But now…

    He heard her sniffle as she tried to regain herposure. The action only added to her sorrow. Her


    nose twitched, and tears again began to form in her eyes. "Brian, you… you don''t love me anymore, do


    you?" She needed to be blunt. "If you don''t, then I will leave. I will not stubbornly cling to you. And even


    if I am never able to see for the rest of my life, I won''t pester you anymore. But I need to hear you say


    that you don''t love me anymore," Becky said while holding back sobs.


    He opened his mouth, but nothing came out. Brian didn''t know what to say because Becky''s words


    were embarrassingly close to home. Finally, he managed, "You can''t see, and you can''t go anywhere!"


    Even then, his tone was cold and his manner overbearing. Tears streamed down Becky''s face when he


    said that. She threw herself into Brian''s arms and broke down. Her hands clutched at his clothes


    helplessly. She choked with sobs that were both sorrowful and frightened. "Brian, I don''t want to leave


    you," she pleaded. "Don''t leave me alone, please. Please!"


    Frowning slightly, Brian held Becky in his arms to console her and gently patted her on the back.


    Speaking softly but in a voice that was still mesmerizing, he vowed, "Until your eyes recover, I will not


    leave you."


    In between sobs, Becky asked doubtfully, "You promise?"


    "Yes!" Brian saidfortingly. In his heart, he was apologizing to the woman, ''Becky, I''m sorry that I


    can''t love you anymore. Please let me help cure your eyes to make it up to you.''


    Soon the ward became quiet. There was no other sound except for the asional sobs from Becky.


    All of a sudden, the ringing of the phone broke the peace. Brian took his phone out to answer the call,


    his handsome face reverting to its usual cold demeanor. Before he could say anything, a husky and


    solemn voice came through.


    "Mr. Brian Long? Sharon…" There was a pause. "She died!"


    The bad news had Brian frown again. Speaking sternly, he asked, "What happened?"


    "Steven and Daniel left this morning. After the doctor examined her, a nurse stayed behind to look after


    the patient. After a while, her condition suddenly deteriorated. The doctors tried their best to revive her


    but were unsessful." He inhaled deeply after listening to the report.


    Then his eyes darkened. "Did Steven and Daniele back?" he inquired.


    "Steven came back just now," the caller said. "But we haven''t seen Daniel."


    "I''ll be there right away," Brian said. He quickly hung up and turned to Becky. "I have some urgent


    affairs to deal with. You stay here, okay?"


    Still sniffling, Becky bit her lip and nodded. There were traces of tears on her cheeks. She pretended to


    be strong, but in truth, she was very scared and fragile inside.


    Before finally leaving the hospital, Brian looked at Becky with concern for a moment. In the car, he


    ordered Tony to drive him to the farm in Sunset Town.


    Yesterday, Molly had appealed to him to set Steven free, so he sent someone to follow him discreetly


    today. Since Justin wanted to y this game, Brian was more than ready to y. He wanted to find out


    what Justin, Edgar, Jonny, and Steven had plotted against him. However, he didn''t expect Daniel to


    also leave.


    "Find out where Daniel is now," he ordered Tony. His tone was cold and brisk.


    With the instruction, Tony immediately called his buddies and passed on the order. He still wasn''t sure


    about what happened and only had a vague idea of why Brian gave such orders. It was also a surprise


    to learn about Sharon''s sudden death. He knew Sharon''s condition was critical after her rpse, but


    Tony thought she could still hold on for a longer time.


    In contrast with the depressing atmosphere Brian had to face, Eric and Molly were having fun in a joyful


    ambiance. They got along very well, most likely because they were of a simr age. Eric was an


    easygoing kind of guy. Molly alwaysughed at his jokes and anecdotes and gradually forgot about the


    scene with Brian that morning.


    Looking at Eric, Molly felt happy to be able to spend time with him. He always had that dangerous and


    mischievous smile on his face and tried to amuse her with his animated expressions.


    Their mealsted nearly two hours. Lenny finally came to pick Eric up to bring him to his rehabilitation


    training.


    Eric was thinking to ask Molly to apany him, but when he saw the fatigue in her eyes, he decided


    to give up on the idea.


    "You go and get some rest," Eric told her. "I will call you once I am finished. Then we can go have


    dinner together, okay?" Molly agreed.


    She was really very tired, and her eyes especially felt sore. Eric wheeled himself to his ride while Molly


    headed to the VIP ward alone.


    Just as she stepped out of the elevator, Yoyo caught up with her and said, "Excuse me, Miss Xia, Miss


    Yan wants to see you. Could youe to her ward?"


    Frowning at Yoyo''s request, Molly wanted to refuse, but the woman must have read her mind so she


    hurriedly said, "Please help me. Otherwise, I will be fired." Her appeal baffled Molly.


    Reluctant as she was, Yoyo''s pleading eyes were hard to resist. Molly knew how hard it was to work for


    people. So, she finally nodded and went to Becky''s ward with Yoyo.


    Once there, Becky said, " Yoyo, can you leave us, please? I have something to talk to Molly about." It


    was a request.


    Yoyo nced at Molly then walked out.


    After Yoyo stepped out, the atmosphere inside the room changed. It was as if there was danger


    looming, and the people inside felt nervous and depressed. Becky remained silent. But Molly had no


    ns to speak up first. So, the two women made no move and settled on a stalemate.


    After several minutes of silence, the atmosphere inside became even tenser. Molly was having a hard


    time breathing. Looking at Becky''s peaceful face, she swallowed hard and asked, "Miss Yan, if you


    want to continue the topic this morning, I''m sorry, but I can''t help you."


    Becky pursed her lips and turned towards the direction of Molly''s voice. Slowly, she said, "You are


    indeed the same as your mother. You both like to snatch men from other people." Then with bitterness


    in her voice, she said, "Ruby!"


    Molly''s face immediately turned pale. She looked at Becky in shock.
