Stay Around You Now And Forever

Chapter 470: Would It Affect His Image?

Emily dialed the emergency number.

Looking at Hunter, she could not believe that such a strong man collapsed in front of her.

Her heart, which had been insensible for two years, was suddenly stimulated, scaring her to tears.

Hunter didn’t want to see her being frightened, but this was the only way he could know how much she cared about him.

He supported the wall and slowly slipped to the ground.

He didn’t know if it was because of the injury or because he wanted to raise her concern, he began to feel dizzy.

"Don’t be afraid, I’m fine." Seeing Basia crying, he wanted to stay conscious, but the more he thought about it, the sleepier he felt.

He raised his hand and wiped it. Damn it, there was really a lot of blood.

"I’m really fine."

It was just dizziness, really.

However, once a man as strong as him collapsed, Emily would be freaked out.

Basia was still crying. Emily took off her coat and pressed it on his forehead.

However, the blood flowed like uncontrollable flood.

Hunter’s vision gradually blurred.

Before he fainted, he stretched out to hold Emily’s hand tightly. "I really … I’m fine. Perhaps during the past two years, I was a little … tired. Take good care of … Basia, I... I’m fine."

"Daddy, daddy!"

Daddy closed his eyes, and Basia was completely frightened.

"Mommy, daddy, he…" Then Basia dissolved into wailing.

…

Why did Hunter faint? The doctor gave several explanations.

"The patient has not had enough sleep for a long time because he stayed alert for too long, and his sadness accumulated into illness. Perhaps his sub consciousness needs a break."

"Losing too much blood is also one of the reasons he fainted. Of course, we are still investigating the exact cause."

"Don’t worry …"

"How can we not worry?" Liam interrupted him.

It was rare for Liam to see Emily nervous about Hunter. If she was not worried because of what the doctor said, then, what if she wouldn’t be concerned about him anymore?

Liam looked at Emily with anxiety. "Miss Emily, Mr. Jackson only slept for two to three hours a day for the past two years. He has never had a good rest."

"It was not that he didn’t want to sleep, but because he missed you so much that he couldn’t sleep at all. Even if he took sleeping pills, it wouldn’t work."

"He seems fine and strong, but in fact, he is seriously weak now."

He wondered if Mr. Jackson would scold him after he found out about his speech.

But he didn’t care about it now.

He continued, "Miss Emily, you don’t know how Mr. Jackson lived during the past two years."

Liam finally found an opportunity to talk to her.

At this moment, all the words that were accumulated in his heart could not be held back.

"Without you, he lived like a walking dead, and I assume that if he couldn’t find you, he would have committed suicide."

Suicide … Hunter wouldn’t do that with his personality.

However, for the past two years, he only slept for two to three hours a day. The fact made Emily feel sad.

She had never thought that he had such a difficult time.

"Miss Emily, I know you don’t like to hear it, but I really can’t hold it back. Mr. Jackson suffered too many hardships. Miss Emily, that incident hurt not only you, but also him."

"Many years ago, there were some misunderstandings between the Gale family and the Jackson family. Everything Mr. Hunter found revealed a single answer, which was, your grandfather had a part in killing his grandmother."

"My grandfather wouldn’t do such a cruel thing!" Later on, she also collected some information about this matter herself.

Hunter’s grandmother indeed died miserably.

However, this matter definitely had nothing to do with her grandfather. She trusted him!

"But this matter does have something to do with your grandfather. Back then, Hunter’s grandmother … actually wanted to elope with you grandfather."

Elope!

Emily was shocked. No one had ever told her about this matter.

"I can’t say much about the details."

After walking to the corridor with Emily, Liam explained everything he knew to her thoroughly.

It turned out that there was such a deep misunderstanding.

No wonder Hunter wanted to seek revenge on her grandfather. If it was her, perhaps she would have done the same.

"Now that it has happened, it’s impossible to deny it."

Emily turned her face away and looked at the distant horizon with melancholy in her eyes.

"We can’t go back whatever happens."

"Why? Do you think that the punishment received by Mr. Jackson during the past two years was not enough?"

Liam didn’t understand what she was worried about.

Did she still hate him?

"Miss Emily, if you want Young Master’s life so as to forgive him, then please tell him directly. He will definitely sacrifice his life in order for your forgiveness."

"Is it meaningful?" Emily looked at him and shook her head. "Is this how you men solve problems?"

Men had to spill blood for women’s forgiveness?

Liam sighed resignedly.

"I don’t understand much about love. Miss Emily, if I say something wrong, please don’t be angry. I just … I just felt heartache for Young Master."

Emily did not say anything else.

He felt heartache. In fact, after listening to him, she felt heartache as well.

But they really couldn’t go back.

She couldn’t face it.

At night, Hunter was still in a coma, showing no sign of waking up.

Emily cleaned his limbs and said a lot to him, but he still didn’t respond.

When the doctor checked the patient at night, Emily asked him anxiously, "Doctor, didn’t you say that he was fine? Why hasn’t he woken up yet?"

The doctor didn’t know what the problem was.

Logically speaking, although Hunter lost a lot of blood from the smash, his body was stronger than any patient he had ever treated and he wouldn’t be in a coma for too long.

"The brain is the most fragile and mysterious part of our body. We can’t predict if there will be any sequelae on him."

Therefore, he wasn’t sure why Hunter hadn’t woken up yet.

"But don’t worry, his condition is very stable. He definitely won’t be in danger."

"Then when will he wake up?"

"Eh ..." The doctor had a headache. He should have woken up a long time ago. What was going on with him?

Liam, who just entered, happened to hear the conversation between the two.

Something flashed in his eyes. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

"Doctor, is it possible that he is unwilling to wake up?"

"This is absolutely possible!" The doctor finally found a reasonable explanation.

He looked at Emily and pondered for a moment before asking, "Has he been wrenched so much that he doesn’t even have the will to live?"

"What?" These words paled Emily’s face. "How could this be?"

He was the Young Master of the Jackson family and could have anything he wanted, why didn’t he want to live?

"Young Master indeed … lived an unhappy life."

Liam peeped at her and then looked at the doctor with sadness.

"You might not believe this, but in the past, Young Master … once took so many sleeping pills that he almost … died."

The patient on the bed subconsciously clenched his fists without being noticed by anyone else.

Damn it! Would such an incident affect his image?

What if his woman hated him for being too cowardly and didn’t want him?

Liam inexplicably felt coldness lingering around his neck, but since he had begun, he had to continue.

He looked at the doctor and sighed, "If Young Master really doesn’t want to wake up, will he be a vegetable?"
