Chapter 449
“But this right decision of yours cost you your life!
“What will happen if I make the decision I think is right then?” Marina had previously firmly believed she could protect everyone in the Bailey family.
However, Lambert’s accident had broken Marina’s resolve.
“No matter the consequences, we will all bear them with you.”
“Marina, you’re just the head of the family, but you are not alone. Even if you sit in that position, you’re still our Marina.
“We’ll always be with you, so Marina, don’t be afraid.
“But you can only truly stand in that position after you accept the partings of life and death.”
Lambert’s figure began to slowly fade.
Marina seemed to have expected something and struggled to run toward him.
However, no matter how Marina chased after Lambert, the distance between them did not shorten.
“I don’t need to go through life and death and still take the position.
“Lambert, can you come back? All of us are still waiting for you.
“Sharon is also waiting for you!” Marina was trying her best to stop Lambert from leaving.
When Lambert heard Sharon’s name, the expression in his eyes involuntarily softened.
“Marina, do me one last favor…”
“Lambert!” Marina shouted Lambert’s name as she woke up from her nightmare.
When Marina sat up in bed, her entire back was already drenched.
“Did you have a nightmare?” Simon, who had been by Marina’s side, immediately came forward.
Marina slowly turned to look at Simon.
“I dreamt of… Lambert.” Marina’s voice was still a little hoarse.
“I heard you call his name.” Simon’s voice was very gentle.
Then, Simon took a tissue and gently wiped the sweat off Marina’s face.
“You don’t have to be afraid. It was just a dream. Anyway, I will always be by your side,” Simon said gently.
Marina grabbed Simon’s hand, and the expression in her eyes became firm.
“I don’t think it was… a dream.”
Simon’s eyes flickered.
Marina told Simon about her dream.
Simon was silent for a moment after hearing what Marina had told him.
The spirit of the dead coming back to visit the living seemed to only exist in myths.
“I think it must be because Lambert was worried about Sharon, so he came to look for me,” Marina firmly believed this.
Even if it wasn’t true, it might have been a kind of telepathic connection between siblings that made Marina feel Lambert’s deepest worries.
“So what do you plan to do? Do you plan to do as Lambert said?” Simon asked.
Marina did not answer the question immediately.
Instead, Marina waited for a moment before looking up at Simon.
“I think this is the best arrangement for Sharon so far.
“After Lambert passed away, Sharon’s condition hasn’t been good.
“I heard from the servants who are taking care of her that she always forgets to eat. Even when they remind her, Sharon only takes a bite or two.
“Sometimes, she would talk to herself, as if Lambert is still with her.
“She’s in a better state now because she’s been helping me with the experiments.
“Now that my career has achieved a certain level of victory, she has no other goals. I’m afraid she will do something to hurt
Chapter 449 herself.”
Marina’s voice was filled with worry.
Lambert had exchanged his life for Sharon’s.
Marina could not let anything happen to Sharon.
“But does she really want to forget the person she loves?” Simon could not help but ask.
In Marina’s dream, Lambert wanted Marina to do something for him, which was to help Sharon forget him.
“I know this is unfair to Sharon, but between being fair to her and her life, I think her life is more important.” Marina
enunciated each word.
“Since you’ve already made up your mind, do as you wish. I’ll always support you.” Simon saw that Marina had already made up her mind, so he didn’t say anything more.
“Alright.” Marina nodded heavily.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
“Come in,” Marina quickly restrained her emotions and replied in a low voice.
The next moment, the door was pushed open from the outside.
A lab technician walked in.
“Marina, we just sent the data. Mr. Moore’s vital signs are fluctuating a little too much. It looks like he’s about to wake up.” The person’s tone was a little agitated.
When Marina heard this, she could not sit still anymore. Marina immediately lifted the blanket and got out of bed, rushing back to the laboratory.
As soon as Marina entered, she observed the various data.
As the lab technician had said, Peter’s brain waves were fluctuating very quickly.
Peter should be waking up soon.
As expected, about five minutes later, Peter’s eyelids moved and he slowly opened his
“Peter?” Marina asked tentatively from beside him.
However, Marina’s voice made Peter frown.
Then, Peter tried to raise his hands to cover his ears.
However, when Peter moved, he realized his hands were tied down.
“What’s wrong?” Marina asked again when she saw Peter in pain.
“Your voice… is too loud…” Peter said with difficulty.
eyes.
It was also because Peter had been unconscious for a long time that his voice was hoarse.
It took Marina a while to understand what Peter meant.
“My voice is very loud?” After Marina heard what he said clearly, a hint of surprise appeared on her face.
Marina had been speaking normally. How was it loud?
“Why is it so noisy… Peter turned his head.
Peter felt like his head was about to explode from the noise.. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
“Get a noise–canceling headset immediately.” Marina immediately instructed the person behind her when she saw Peter’s discomfort.
“Yes!” The latter immediately turned around and left.
When the person returned, he had a pair of noise–canceling headphones in his hands.
Marina took it and immediately helped Peter to put the headphones on.
After putting on the headphones, Peter’s furrowed brows finally relaxed a little.
“Are you feeling better now?” Marina asked again.
Peter nodded.
Although there was no way to isolate all the noise, it at least helped to mufle the sounds.
“Do you
feel
any other discomfort?” Marina asked again.
