The frail figure of the woman was now lying on the bed in pain. His face was pale and his eyes were still closed.
When dawn arrived, his eyes suddenly opened and he was conscious in a daze.
As he observed the surroundings, he was slightly surprised to find the figure of a man standing tall.
His face was terrified.
“Finally you wake up.”
Ruona shook her head then she unintentionally felt pain from her stomach. The woman lowered her head. His hand slowly caressed his stomach with worry.
“What happened?”
Ruona could no longer sense any signs of life there.
A flash of panic appeared on his face.
“The child is dead.”
His eyes were in disbelief. A strange expression instantly crossed his face.
“Ha ha ha ha.”
Ruona laughed as if she had just listened to a funny joke. His loud laughter suddenly became sobs.
Obviously when Ruona found out about her pregnancy the first time, she hated it. But as time went on he began to like there was new life in his stomach.
Ruona wanted to give birth to him and raise him. He suddenly understood Liana's feelings as she lost her flesh and blood. That's very painful.
Ruona finally understood what it was like to be a mother.
“What are you crying over?”
Ruona looked at her stomach and her tears were always dripping.
“Didn't you always want to abort that kid? Your wish is now realized.”
Ruona lowered her head and the shadow of her past as she wasted the person who loved her instantly spun around.
He's very sorry. The woman suddenly curled up and cried helplessly. The next second, his neck felt like it was suffocating.
“Ruona, my plan is ruined because of you.”
“What?”
“The two children were taken away.”
Ruona's body stiffened then she laughed out loud.
“Ha ha ha ha.”
Kevin who saw it was shocked and angry. “Basic crazy woman.”
In the next instant, the man left Ruona who was laughing wildly from getting the call.
After answering the call outside, Kevin went back into the ward. The place is empty. There was an empty bed and there was blood there. Blood was also found on the floor leading to the bathroom.
Kevin ran to the doorway. He stopped suddenly, confused.
Kevin saw the woman leaning against the bathtub while injuring her own arm. Blood spilled and stained the water in the bathtub.
“What do you do?”
Kevin instantly grabbed his hand to stop his unreasonable actions.
Ruona's actions stopped, she raised her head to look at Kevin. His gaze immediately glared furiously.
“That's you,” accuse Ruona.
“What?”
“That's all your fault! You killed my son. You're a murderer, give me back my son!”
Kevin immediately took out the fruit knife that Ruona was holding and threw it away. He immediately gripped both hands of Ruona. So that woman can not be much thrashing.
“Are you crazy?” scream Kevin.
“Who else can kill my son besides you? You killed my son. Restore it! Restore him!”
Ruona blindly turned towards Kevin.
Kevin directly slapped Ruona to resuscitate her back to her rational sense.
“Don't act like a madman in front of me! Do you think I won't do anything to you just because you're acting like crazy! And another one, I didn't kill your son.”
“Who else can?”
“Have you forgotten, there's Daniel. Precisely he killed your son.”
“Daniel...Daniel...”
“Ya, the boy.”
“He...he who killed my son.”.
Suddenly Ruona was like a possessed person. Kevin immediately let go of his hand and stood in front of Ruona.
“He killed my son..ha ha ha ha I also have to kill him.”.
Then a few nurses came to calm Ruona down.
“Do not! Nay! Don't touch me.”
Ruona screamed like she lost her sanity. Everyone exchanged glances and directly worked together to grip Ruona's wrist so that the woman could not make much of a revolt.
“Daniel..that's you..”.

The man hung up his phone and turned to look at Liana. Liana looked at him expectantly.
“Have the children returned?”
Gideon nodded. “Yes. They're safe now.”
A bright beam instantly crossed Liana's eyes. He got out of bed restlessly but Gideon stopped him.
“I want to see them.”
“I'll take you to them when you are completely healed.”
“No. I want to see it, I've been cured.”
“Liana, be obedient.”
Liana was silent. He glanced at Gideon in annoyance.
“Are you lying to me? The kids aren't safe, are they?”
“I didn't lie to you. The children were slightly injured and were taken to hospital. They will definitely feel pain if they see you because it looks weak now.”
Liana immediately looked down and it was true, her appearance now looked haggard and withered.
“After you look better, I'll take you to them. Okay?”
Liana looked at Gideon suspiciously for a while.
“I can't rest and eat if I don't see them soon.”
“Liana, be obedient.”
Gideon took a bowl of porridge beside him and fed him patiently and painstakingly.
Since Gideon returned abroad, the man has rarely slept. Now Gideon's appearance has changed slightly. There was a thin beard there and the dark circles due to fatigue were evident.
Liana looked at him deeply and suddenly she felt her heart ache. Eyes glazed.
He must be tired of me.
“What's up?” ask Gideon.
“From now on, I'll hear you. I'll be obedient.”
Gideon was flabbergasted and could not help but pinch his nose.
“Good.”
While lifting the spoon , Gideon said, “Let me bribe you.”
“Ya.” Liana nodded obediently.
Gideon blew the porridge carefully to make sure that it was warm enough to eat before feeding it to Liana.
Liana carefully picked it up in her mouth and swallowed it. The warmth instantly spread throughout his body.
Gideon repeated his action until half a bowl of porridge.
“I'm full.”
“Eat just a little more.”
Gideon patiently persuaded.
“Didn't you say you'd be obedient?”
Can't say anything more. Liana ate some more bribes. As soon as she finished, Liana lay down again.
Gideon fixed the position of the blanket.
“I'll go to the office. Rest and wait for me to come home.”
“Is there something very important?” Liana was somewhat dissatisfied upon hearing Gideon's words.
“Ya.”
“Then when will you be back?”
“I'll be back as soon as I'm done.”
Liana immediately pouted. However, he nodded his head and looked at Gideon.
“Alright, I'll wait for you.”
After Gideon landed his kiss, Gideon turned around.

Gideon had arrived at his office, the transfer of power should have started at twelve o'clock. Kevin kept putting it off.
Inside the CEO's office, Gideon sat at his grand desk playing with the pen in his hand.
While the other council sat on the sofa in his room.
Before Gideon came into his office, rumors that the man would give up some of his power willingly for the sake of a woman spread.
Many of the board of directors were in disbelief because they saw what Gideon went through to get into that seat within the Cross family.
The lives of the rich are complicated, especially when it comes to power. But many give up when they have to deal with Gideon Cross. Because that man is the most prominent.
That was why the man had the support of two important figures from the Cross family.
Simon Cross, his brother and his uncle.
If changing the CEO means it has a huge impact on the company's profits.
“Are you really going to give your shares to that boy.”
