Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)
Chapter 445

Chapter 445 Lose Everything

In the end, I drifted into unconsciousness, unaware of which hospital I was being sent to. By the time I woke up, I found myself staring at a luxurious but unfamiliar ward. Leonard had won

He had probably anticipated that jack and the others

is would come and made full preparations to prevent them from interrupting his plan. He brought me to a private hospital and forbade anyone from visiting me.

I was constantly in a half-conscious state. I could open my eyes a crack, but I couldn't control my body at all. For a few times now, I could hear people fighting outside the door in my dizzied state.

Sometimes, 1 could hear Emma's and Jill's voices. Clearly, Leonard didn't want to argue with them. So, he'd normally hide in my ward. He would hold my hand and wipe it clean meticulously.

"I don't get it. You've always been close to Emma back in college, and she was always this rowdy. Hasn't she been quite supportive of me in the past? I'm telling you, people change very easily. Why can't Emma lep supporting our relationship? She ate a lot of my junk food back in our college days, geez."

I wanted to withdraw my hand, but I honestly lacked the energy to do so. Leonard actually had the gall to complain about Emma being fickle-minded when he was the most ficde-minded person in the world.

Sometimes, I could hear Jack's voice. Whenever Leonard confronted Jack, he would say that I had agreed to remarry him, and th conference was the best proof there ever was.

the fact that I attended the press

There were reporters at the venue too. News about us was proh

probably all over the internet now, which lent to his ever-growing unscrupulousness.

With that said, Leonard actually let Alisa into my ward when she hurried to the hospital. She held me and burst into tears.

"Are you an idiot, Eva? We could've just shut down the company, and you could've just returned to Manovia with me! Why did you have to compromise with this scumbag? How big of a fool are you?"

I could feel her snot flowing onto my face, but Alisa still wouldn't let go of me.

Leonard stood next to us and chuckled. "she isn't a fool. She has always known what she wanted. Eva has sacrificed a lot for you, Alisa. Don't you think you should focus more on your work and not be a pain in my butt?" "Why, you!"

didn't do it. She

I could feel my eyes closing subconsciously. Going by Alisa's temper, she probably would've slapped Leonard right there and then. However, she didn't had become more mature.

After several minutes, Alisa finally spoke with some difficulty, "Eva is in terrible shape, Leonard. You should know that only fullan and his team can treat her. You can't be this selfish. Do you really want her dead?" I could tell that Alisa was suppressing her anger. Needless to say, I was also aware that my health was also teetering on the brink. Otherwise, there was no way I wouldn't have regained full consciousness by now.

I had heard that cancer patients suffered so much pain toward the end that they chose to end their lives. I was also experiencing intense pain in every inch of my body, but I couldn't move.

Leonard held my hand gently. "I won't let her die. I said I love her, but all of you just won't believe me."

"Love? You're trying to get her killed!" Eventually, Alisa couldn't hold her anger back anymore and immediately yanked his hand away from me

Leonard's voice instantly tuned ley when he said, "I'm showing you some respect because you're Eva's family, Alisa. Don't cross the line. I've purchased some miracle drugs from Xandara, I said I love her, and 11 I won't let herdie on ine."

Leonard sounded stubborn, and there was a hint of certainty in his voice as well

"You'd better keep your word,"

Eventually, Alisa didn't say anything further. She couldn't get me out of here, so she had no choice but to leave.

Leonard returned and sat next to me again. Then, he took some documents out of his briefcase. He held my thumb and pressed it onto the ink pad before stamping it on the documents.

"Why don't they believe it when I say I love you, Eva? I know you love me too. That's why you're willing to lose everything for me. Isn't that right, honey?"
