Chapter 424 Chapter 424 A Graceful Exit At first, Alisa was skeptical when I mentioned I had cto peace with everything, but seeing my calm demeanor, she had no choice but to accept it. Julian said Jack had brought back a special medication from abroad, which was why I had regained consciousness. At the time, my intense stress took a toll on my cardiovascular system. Here I was, in my 20s, but I felt like I was in my 100s.

I could meet my end at any moment, but thankfully, I had a great group of friends looking out for me. None of them directly mentioned my health condition, but I could piece it together. At least for now, I was stable enough to stay alive.

I insisted on not having anyone keep watch overexcept for Nina, who helped take care ofeach day. The weather was good when Nina suggested takingfor a stroll. She said, "You're already pale to begin with. Not seeing the sun will make you look even worse. I bought you a lovely scarf. A lot of ladies are wearing similar designs nowadays." Knowing I wasn't keen on wigs, Nina had picked up various headscarves just for me. But little did she know wearing one would only draw more attention to my appearance. Anyone would be able to tell I was ill.

Still, I didn't want to hurt her feelings, so I put on the scarf and went out with her. Little did I know, Leonard cto seeand brought the media along.

"Eva! I'm so glad to see you're okay," he said, rushing over and squatting in front of my wheelchair. "Eva, I'll take care of you from now on. We'll always be together." His voice was soft, his movements careful. It was as if he were afraid of hurting me.

I smiled at him, feeling a strange mix of emotions. "I've been in the hospital for so many days. Why haven't you cto see me? So much for caring for me, huh? You never even cto visit. Were you really worried about me?" People said you softened up when you were near the end, but here I was, saying whatever I wanted without holding back. I knew the media he had brought along wouldn't speak up for me. Even if sof the things I said got cut out, I still had to say them. Leonard's expression froze for a moment, and then I saw Alisa stride up behind him.

"Leonard, are you mad? Are you seriously putting on an act again? Why don't you go to school already? I'm warning you-Eva can't handle any stress right now. I won't let you off the hook if anything happens to her!" Alisa pushed my wheelchair back toward the ward.

Yet Leonard stayed right on our heels.

A couple of times, Alisa wanted to confront him directly, but I stopped her.

Right now, sparring with him was pointless. The media was on his side, and I didn't want Alisa to be portrayed negatively.

As we reached the entrance to the ward, Leonard blocked our way.

"Eva, we need to talk about our remarriage." Alisa scoffed, "Who's going to remarry you? Eva never agreed to that!" "Eva, are you sure you don't want to discuss it?" Leonard's demeanor shifted from affectionate to all business as he turned to me. I was all too familiar with that expression of his. My brows furrowed together. Even so, I shook my head.

"I've never considered remarrying you. You should know that. If you keep making these false claims, I'll have to make a report." I saw the reporters behind him exchange glances, uncertainty written on their faces.

Leonard waved his hand, and his assistant ushered them out But m Leonard still didn't leave.

Alisa shot him an annoyed look.

"Alisa, are you so idle lately? With so much going on at the company, aren't you supposed to be handling all of those? Or have you realized your tas the director of your company is running out, so you're planning a graceful exit?" "Leonard!" Alisa interrupted him, then turned to me, concern etched across her face. I lifted my gaze, pondering what all this meant. "Alisa, let him in to talk." Chapter 425 The Only Son
