Chapter 2
- I pushed open the door to the ward.
- Everyone in the room was looking at me.
- Sherry's parents immediately came up to me warmly.
- "Seline, thank you so much!" Mrs. Don, Sherry’s mother, shook my hand vigorously.
- She was wearing the latest LV bag, and her diamond ring was sparkling.
- "Don't worry, when Sherry recovers, we will definitely give you what you want." Mr. Don echoed from the side.
- They were saying thank you with their mouths.
- But their eyes were full of contempt and mockery.
- As if I were a homeless man who sold his daughter for money.
- Victor stood by the bedside enjoying it all.
- He had his hand on Sherry's shoulder, playing the role of a passionate and powerful savior.
- He was very satisfied with the harmonious scene before him.
- So he cleared his throat.
- "There's something else I want to announce in front of everyone."
- He hugged Sherry tightly.
- "When Sherry recovers, I will divorce Seline."
- His gaze fell on me, looking at me like trash.
- "I will kick her out."
- "Because of you, and your rotten father, you don't deserve anything of mine."
- Sherry's parents exchanged a satisfied look.
- Sherry weakly leaned against Victor's chest, her eyes full of victorious light.
- Victor was not done yet.
- He looked at me triumphantly, admiring the pain and despair that should have been on my face.
- "Oh, by the way, I also invited the media."
- "After a successful surgery tomorrow, I will live stream on TikTuk."
- "I want to show how forgiving I am, using my broad mind to save a rotten gambler."
- "I want to vindicate my love with Sherry."
- The light in his eyes was blinding.
- He wanted to trample on my “father's corpse," trample on my son's heart, and compose a hymn for his love.
- So touching.
- So ironic.
- I looked at the ugly faces of these people, but my heart remained calm.
- I just asked softly.
- "Victor, are you sure you want to make such a big fuss about this?"
- He thought I was scared.
- He thought I was begging for mercy.
- He laughed even more arrogantly, more domineering.
- "Of course!"
- "I want everyone to see who deserves to stand by my side!"
- "I also want everyone to know how much of a failure you, Seline, are!"
- On the day of the surgery, it was just getting light outside.
- The hospital entrance was already crowded with the media.
- There were more reporters invited by Victor than family members visiting.
- The flashlights never stopped.
- Victor stepped out of his Bentley.
- He was dressed in a tailored suit, his hair slicked back.
- But there was weariness and determination in his face.
- He began his long-prepared speech in front of the camera.
- "Thank you to all the media friends for coming."
- His voice was low and hoarse, his expression serious.
- "Today, standing here, my feelings are complicated."
- "As a husband, I have experienced betrayal."
- He looked at me in the crowd.
- "But as a man, I choose to take responsibility."
- "The man who once hurt my family, my father-in-law, is now fighting for his life in the ICU."
- "And my beloved, Miss Sherry, is also hanging by a thread due to heart failure."
- "Fate has played a cruel joke, but it has also brought a glimmer of hope."
- "My father-in-law's blood type matches perfectly with Sherry's!"
- He took a deep breath, a savior-like glow on his face.
- "Setting aside personal grievances to save a life, this is love, this is responsibility."
- "I hope my choice can bring a little warmth to this world."
- The speech was perfect.
- Messages flew rapidly in the live broadcast room.
- "Mr. Hudson is so great! This is true love!"
- "If it weren't for that homeless man saving Miss Sherry, she would probably have starved to death by now!"
- "Why hasn't Seline left yet? If I were her, I would be too ashamed to leave the house."
- Curses filled the screen.
- Victor became the spokesperson for love and greatness, while my father and I, who had never shown our faces, became the despised ones.
- Sherry was pushed out by the nurses in a crowd.
- She looked like a princess about to be crowned.
- As she passed by me, she smiled through the crowd.
- Mouthing silently.
- "Thank you for your son's heart, Seline."
