When There Is Nothing Left But Love
Chapter 1308

Chapter 1308

Nick was evidently suffering, but as a fellow woman, I was on Rose’s side in that matter. I knew howdisappointed she must be when she found out the truth.

Whenever she talked about her husband, I could see true love and happiness in her eyes. This womanhad unquestionably given her heart and soul to their relationship.

However, when she finally achieved her dream to get married and have children, Nick walked out of herlife and tore their marriage apart.

“You shouldn’t do this, at least not now.” I knew it would be a bitter disappointment to Rose if she wasleft alone when she needed all the support and care, especially after their child was born.

For a moment, I was reminded of Camelia. She was a bright and confident lady before Marcus brokeher.

Life lessons taught us that it was important to be open and honest in all aspects of life, includingmarriage. Yet honesty could sometimes be cruel when one had hopes and expectations.

Nick took a deep breath. “Do you know why Jackson appeared out of nowhere and suddenly he gotmarried?” he asked. The frustration and coldness were in his voice.

I frowned, stupefied by his sudden change of subject.

Before I could respond, he tilted his head downwards and complained, “If Lydia hadn’t told me, Iwouldn’t have known the truth. It turned out that mom has sent someone to spy on me after she knewof our relationship. And before she blew up at me, she confronted him without my knowledge! Well, Idon’t know what they talked about, but I’m pretty sure that Jackson disappeared after that day. Thensoon after, he went to M Country and ended up being the scapegoat of his own brother!

“Look at him now. He is laying unconscious in bed, and his parents didn’t even come and visit him. Doyou know what they told me over the phone? They said he disgusted them and that he is not their son!They said he deserved to suffer because he chose to leave and protect me. You see, I am the only onehe could turn to. I must stay beside him. And I’ve promised myself that I don’t want to be a gutlesscoward anymore.”

I could see his gaze wandered over the floor as he spoke. Then he stared ahead absently as if his soulleaving his empty shell of a body.

I knew nothing was perfect in this world. We would always fail the very person who loved us the most.

As a bystander, I didn’t have the right to judge his decision, but at the same time, I felt sorry for Rose.

“Still, Rose and your son are innocent. I know you’re a busy man, but you must fulfill yourresponsibilities. Even if you want to go your separate ways, don’t run and hide from your problems. So,think carefully before you make your final decision,” I said, even though I knew it was almost impossibleto convince a stubborn man.

If he allowed his ego to rule his decision, the problem would only drag on much longer. In the end, hewould only make it more difficult for himself.

I left his office. Suddenly, I received a call from the police station. I had to call off my plan to visit Rose.

“Are you Emery Moore’s attorney?”

Half an hour later, I arrived at the police station.

From inside the car, I saw an ambulance pulled off at the front entrance. It has an emergency light on.

I got down from the car and walked toward the entrance. When I was inside the building, I saw apatient in a ventilator mask being wheeled into the ambulance. It was hectic.

Just as I was wondering about what happened, Hunter hurried out of the corridor with his father. Helooked surprised when he saw me. Then he walked past me like we were total strangers. They got intoa white car and followed the ambulance.

At that moment, I could probably guess what had happened. I walked further in and saw Emery sittingface to face with a police officer. Her attractive features were expressionless; her eyes were cold andsharp.
