chapter 1709
When the nurses heard the urgent bell, they pushed out a stretcher to get Sonia onto it and wheeled her into the emergency room.
Harry, meanwhile, stood outside the emergency room as his steadfast gaze fixed on the shut door.
'Sonia, please be okay. Please stay safe!’
Harry would never be able to forgive himself if anything happened to her.
D*mn it!
How could he be so foolish? He knew Sonia was an innocent lady, and she had lived a hard life with him for a few years without complaining.
From the sudden change in attitude, her wanting to break up, and the harsh words she said...how could he not have thought about her reasons behind it all?
He even treated another woman well, in his own volition, and said mean things to hurt her!
Harry’s tightly balled fists caused his veins to protrude, and his steely gaze was glazed with guilt.
As long as Sonia was fine, he would accept everything about her. Even if he had not received a definite answer, he had already chosen to believe her.
With that in mind, the phone in his pocket rang abruptly. Fishing out his phone to notice it was his assistant calling, he answered right away, "How did it go?"
With the documents he had gathered, the assistant reported, "President Cogen, Ms. Sonia seems to have been threatened by George Hadington after all. Everything she did was forced! I also found out
that George has a wife who’s infertile, so he found Ms. Sonia for her looks and because she looks similar to his wife, all so things won't raise suspicion along the line."
Harry's eyes darkened murderously. He clutched his phone so tightly, his green veins surfacing to the skin and all, as though the phone would crumble under his might.
It was true, after all.
The innocent Sonia was framed by that douche!
"Keep everything a secret," he darkly ordered, "and keep an eye on the Hadington family." Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
They had harmed Sonia, and Harry wanted the entire Hadington family to pay dearly for their transgression!
"Yes, President Cogen!"
Harry hung up coldly and lifted his eyes to look at the shut door.
'Sonia, I’m sorry...'
He had misunderstood her. She wanted the best for him, yet he only broke her.
As long as she could walk out safely, he would give her the life she wanted.
Harry looked at the pitch-black sky. Amid his prayer, the emergency room's door finally opened.
A doctor walked out and said gently, "The patient is safe now. She had taken in polluted water, but we washed it out in time. Nonetheless, her body is in a poor state, and she hasn't rested for a few days. She must stop staying up late and overthinking." 1
Harry let out a sigh of relief. When he heard the doctor's last phrase, however, he could not help frowning.
Sonia had not rested well in the past few days? Staying up late? Overthinking?
Harry felt as though thousands of needles were jammed into his heart, and it felt like hell on earth.
How did Sonia manage to live on her own?
Harry's eyes were filled with hurt.
He watched as Sonia was pushed out of the emergency room. Laying in bed, her pale face depicted as though she had a close brush with death, and she looked like she was hanging on a thin rope.
"Sonia..." He stood by her bedside and held on to her ice-cold small hand. His handsome face was full of worry and pain. His throat was burning and his voice hoarse as he muttered, "I'm sorry to have wronged you..."
Sonia met his guilty look and said innocently, "Don’t feel bad, Harry.... I did this to myself; it's the price to pay for hurting you." "Don't say that!" Harry reached out to caress her pale face, fretting, "As long as you’re fine, we still have time."
