Otherwise, he would probably be in jail for the rest of his life.
That was why he confessed to everything. If he had known Paisley Daniels was going to give him trouble, he would have stayed away from her.
‘But… who the hell was behind getting me here? What other
big shots have Paisley Daniels offended beside Martin Weiss?”
Shane Currey was severely scolding Paisley Daniels in his heart but still had to smile at Martin Weiss.
“Let you go?” Martin Weiss sneered. If he let Shane Currey go, who would let him go? “I don’t care about you and Paisley Daniels, but you shouldn’t have helped her tamper with the bone marrow donation information and watch her take credit for Kyla Corbyn’s donation!”
Martin Weiss ordered his men as he spoke, “Take him to the police station.”
His men responded and left with Shane Currey.
Before Shane Currey was taken away, he could not help shouting, “Martin Weiss, since you don’t care about me and Paisley Daniels, why should you care about the bone marrow donation? So what if Kyla Corbyn donated it? She’s just an ordinary woman. Didn’t you send her to prison for Paisley? And now you’re acting remorseful?”
Shane Currey’s voice was getting farther and farther away. Martin Weiss could not stop himself from trembling. ‘Is she… only an ordinary woman?
‘No! Kyla Corbyn has never been any ordinary woman. She’s… the woman I love deeply!’
The pain in his chest was getting stronger and more painful.
The pain almost overwhelmed him.
Perhaps only now was he finally willing to admit that he still loved Kyla Corbyn.
Rather, he had thought that he could not love her and that he could eliminate her from his heart after sending her to prison and taking his revenge.
However, it turned out it was all self-deception.
If he did not love her, he would not care about her so much. He would not get jealous when he saw her with another man and even be so furious that he flew into a rage out of humiliation after mistakenly thinking she had made a fool of him.
He defended Paisley Daniels and was ruthless to Kyla Corbyn just to avoid his feelings. He dared not admit he loved the daughter of his enemy.
The hands hanging by Martin Weiss’s sides were so tightly clenched into fists that his fingernails pricked his palms. Blood trickled down his fingers, but he seemed to feel no pain.
Step by step, he walked to Kyla Corbyn’s ward.
Of course, he knew which ward she was in.
He wanted to see her. He wanted to tell her that he had been wrong, that he should have believed her and not humiliated her like that!
He should not have laid his hatred for her father upon her and taken revenge on her in such a vile way!
He also wanted to tell her that he would treat her and Nelson well to make up for what she had suffered.
However, he began to grow timider as he approached her ward.
He was afraid that she would look at him with hatred and she would not forgive him.
3/4 He was even… so afraid that he did not know how to face her.
He was so afraid that every step he took was hard.
When Martin Weiss finally reached Kyla Corbyn’s ward, he saw two men sitting on a bench in front of the ward. They got up and stopped him immediately.
“Mr. Weiss, please hold on,” one of them said.
“You’re…” Martin Weiss looked at him and said.
“Master Reed asked us to stay here and look after Ms. Kyla Corbyn, saying not to let irrelevant people disturb her,” he answered.
Martin Weiss was stunned.
‘Irrelevant people… So I’m irrelevant too?’
His heart suddenly felt a pang!
Martin Weiss thought, ‘How am I irrelevant? I’m the one Kyla once loved as well as Nelson’s father!’
“Who is Jason to prevent me from seeing Kyla? Even if he owns the hospital, he doesn’t have the right!”
He tried to force his way in as he spoke.
However, the two men did not give in. “Mr. Weiss, please leave. We’re in a hospital, and it’s late.”
“What if I insist on going in?” Martin Weiss asked grimly.
Several bodyguards following Martin Weiss stepped forward.
Although Martin Weiss had more people, the two men guarding Kyla Corbyn’s ward did not budge.
After all, they had received strict orders not to let certain people disturb Kyla Corbyn and Martin Weiss was among those ‘certain people’
“We’re sorry to do this!” said the two men.
Both parties were on the brink of a fight breaking out.
Just then, the door of the ward suddenly opened and Kyla Corbyn stepped out.
When the two men guarding the ward saw Kyla Corbyn appear, they hurriedly said, “Miss Corbyn, don’t worry. If you don’t want to see Mr. Weiss, he won’t be able to break into the ward no matter what today!”
Since they had been selected to keep guard here, they had what it took to keep people out.
Kyla Corbyn looked up and her eyes fell on Martin Weiss.
Martin Weiss was different from the last time she saw him. Although he was still impeccably dressed, he had a scruffy jaw and his hair looked a little messy. His face looked very haggard, and even his eyes seemed to have a tinge of redness in them.
It was a far cry from his usual solemn appearance.
Martin Weiss looked almost greedily at the woman not far away. She was dressed in a hospital gown. She wore her long hair down, making her cheeks look thinner than ever.
There was a scab on her forehead that looked a little red. It looked more obvious under the hallway lights.
His heart suddenly contracted, and his eyes felt as though they were stinging.
The wound on her forehead… was probably caused by the forced groveling at that time.
She had been forced to grovel while being pressed to the floor. He had given out the order! For a moment, he wished that all the humiliation and pain were on him instead.
‘Why did I stand by and watch her suffer from humiliation?
‘Why did I ignore her pain and despair?’
The cold female voice rang in his ears. “Martin Weiss, what’s the matter? Did you come here at this late hour to drag me to grovel and apologize to Paisley Daniels?”
Martin Weiss suddenly trembled. He stumbled and seemed to lose his footing.
There was a flash of pain in those narrow, deep eyes. One word from her could easily knock him down to hell.
He said in a dry voice and an almost humble tone, “No… No. Kyla, I’ve come to apologize to you. I know I was wrong, very wrong. I shouldn’t have believed what Paisley Daniels said and treated you like that-”
Kyla Corbyn interrupted Martin Weiss, “Martin Weiss, I don’t want to hear any apology from you. There’s no need for that! It’s very late now. My mother and Nelson are already asleep. I don’t want to wake them, and I don’t want to see you again.”
Even the way she looked at him was filled with disgust.
However, he suddenly rushed up to her and nearly grabbed her when she turned around to go back to the ward.
