"But could you please let me to have a look at her?" Julian the added since he was afraid that Vincent would refuse, "Just one look. I wouldn't disturb her."

Vincent sighed and agreed, "You can have a look at her."

Vincent the instantly led Julian to Emelia's room.

Vincent knew that Julian would replace Emelia in capital after he finished dealing with Caroline's affairs. He had made the decision that he wouldn't bother to meet Julian when he did so. But now hearing that Julian was also ill, he refrained himself from carrying out his plan.

His poor look and the fact that Julian didn't do anything wrong made Vincent agree his request.

The high fever made Emelia still in coma.

Standing at her bedside, Julian looked at her face, which was so much thinner than it used to be, and clenched the diamond ring in his pocket tightly.

He asked his men to prepare this ring when he was still in hospital before he went to Avonsor Hill. He had planned to woo her when he had finished dealing with Eric's problem. He had also informed the local media to make a proposal to her in public.

He would let people all over the world to know how much he loved her and made up for her what he owed her during their last marriage.

But it was a pity that such an accident would happen between them.

She was infertile.

In fact, he didn't care about that.

But she did.

Now he felt that the relationship between Emelia and him had come to an end. He had no idea what to do right now.

Over this, he felt he could hardly breathe again and he even began to fall down onto the ground.

Vincent also noticed this and he was afraid that he would fall onto Emelia's bed so he came in and took him outside.

And the ring in Julian's pocket wasn't taken out in the end.

He fetched this ring from his home when he escaped from the hospital. He planned to give it to Emelia no matter what she would say. He just needed to give it to her.

But now he could not force her to do anything.

They sat back in Vincent's study. Vincent took a look at Julian, who was now even unable to walk quickly, and then he decided to have a talk with Julian.

"You traveled a long distance to here.

So, I think we need to talk and then you don't have to do so in future."

Vincent had made his position clear in his words. In his mind, there was no need for Julian to come here for a second time.

Julian bit his lips and didn's say a word.

He knew Vincent had got a lot to say so he decided to hear his opinion first.

Vincent put it straight, "Firstly, all member of my family cannot forgive your mother."

"It doesn't matter whether she accepts Emelia is infertile or not. I can understand she would do it for your good. But I cannot forgive what she did to Emelia."

"When I know Emelia was my daughter and then adopted her, she became a treasure of mine. No one in my family dares say any serious words to her. But your mother even beat her ..." Vincent stopped here due to anger.

When he picked Emelia up at the airport, he could still see the bruise of Heather's slap on her face. After knowing that Heather gave a slap on his daughter's face, Vincent went extremely angry.

At that moment, Vincent even wanted to fly to Riverside City to give a slap back on Heather's face. It was inappropriate for Emelia, Heather's junior, to give the slap back. But as Emelia's father, Vincent should revenge for his daughter.

Julian he was right. But he still showed his own position in brief, "I will send my mother abroad a few days later. She won't be back then. His mother needed to go abroad and be sent to be with his father.

It was his parents who had made situation go as worse as such. They had caused the death of their daughter, Caroline. This time, Julian didn't want his parents to hinder him.

They might spend the rest of their life abroad to torture each other, but they wouldn't come back to torture him.

Vincent didn't comment on Julian's decision and continued, "The relationship between Emelia and your mother was only part of the reason. It was the fact that she is infertile that makes me reluctant to let her be with you."

Vincent raised his hand to stop Julian from interrupting him, "I know you would say you don't care because you love her so much. And you would also say that I have also married a woman who couldn't give birth to my own child and I have lived happily with her for decades. Am I right? But I don't want my daughter to live a life as such. I don't want her to suffer what Naomi is suffering now!"

"I thought if I said I didn't care whether she is infertile or not, she would feel better. But what I failed to know was that my attitude put great stress on her. The more I love her, the more guiity she feels. Then she begins to suffer in depression. Then her menta! stress starts to be reflected in physical problems. It has even affected her lifespan."

Vincent's words made concern written all over on Julian's face. The last sentence of his words which included "lifespan" made his heart beating harder and harder.

Almost the whole country know how Vincent loved his Naomi.

What they knew was that Vincent had never ceased loving her though she was bad in health but seldom did people know that it was Vincent's love that made Naomi's situation get worse and worse.

Vincent continued his persuasion, "That's because she loves me either. The more often I emphasize that I don't care whether she could give birth to my child or not, the more guilty she feels. So, you want Emelia to have a short lifespan from mental sufferings, or to live a happy life with less concerns?"

Julian sat on the sofa, biting his lips and his face quite pale.

Neither of the two options was the one he wanted to choose. What he wanted was Emelia could live a happy life together with him.

But he also knew that Vincent's words were right.

She also loved him, so she also wished that there would be no pity in his life.

Vincent continued, "We will spare no effort to replace cure for her problem. If she couldn't be cured, we planned to let her be single throughout her life so that she wouldn't be found fault with by her husband's family. We can afford providing for her and she herself is also a famous playwriter. She doesn't have to depend on anyone else for living."

If she couldn't be cured, Emelia had another option. She could get married with a divorced man or a man who had already had his own child. But Vincent didn't want his daughter to marry a man she didn't love He also knew that Emelia wouldn't get married anymore. In other words, she wouldn't have any idea to marry anyone other than Julian.
