Orville got burned inside after Sian told him the whole story from soup to nuts. “This brat!”
Then he turned to Sabina and Baron with a solemn in his eyes, “I apologize for what Henry has done to
Kelly
and I promise you Kelly will be our King family’s daughter–in–law!”
Sabina and Baron were wild with joy inwardly. No matter what Henry’s attitude is, Sian and Orville now
peg
Kelly as their future daughter–in–law! They have announced it publicly! After all, there is something to be
gained from the announcement.
It’s a major advancement of their plan!
At that moment, Kelly had regained consciousness actually but she closed her eyes as she clapped her
eyes on
Henry, as if she didn’t want to see him anymore.

guilt. “Sorry.”
SOUP of

Her voice was void of emotions, giving Henry a sense of distance.
Henry widened his eyes but he said nothing at all.

so you
don’t have to be worried. I won’t be your concern. I will be allowed to be discharged from the hospital
soon.
Your guilt is the last thing I want to see, please don’t be hard on yourself. And I know guilt is not love,
same as
pity, I don’t want love under the mask of guilt or pity for it will make me hope against hope that you will
fall in
love with me in earnest and be willing to marry me.”
Henry could detect the wistful and helpless tone in Kelly’s voice, as evidenced by the tears brimming in
her
eyes.
