Cora said,
“Gabe, she is the one who refuses to be honest. You can send her back, and I have another appointment.”
Gabe originally insisted that the family sit down and discuss the problem, but Flora also insisted on leaving, so he had no choice but to send Flora back.
Cora bought a bouquet of roses and took a taxi to the cemetery…
“Martin and I are having a good time recently. How about you?
“Are you still angry with me and refuse to let me see your face in my dream?
“Don’t be angry. I also want to accompany you. When Martin grows up and can live independently, I will accompany you…”
The weather was nice. Cora stood in front of the grave, chatting and laughing to the faded photos.
After she left, a low-key black car stopped in front of the gate of the cemetery.
The man who got out of the car strode to the tomb that Cora was at.
Looking at the bouquet of red roses placed in front of the tombstone, he sneered and kicked the bouquet away. Then, he mercilessly tore off the photo on the tombstone…
At night, Cora called Jerry and told him that there was still something to do here so that she would stay in New York for two more days.
“It’s okay. You can rest assured. My godson has almost forgotten about you as a mother now.”
Jerry wasn’t lying. When they were talking on the phone, Martin’s laughter could be heard from time to time.
Maybe it was because Jerry had been taking care of her son since birth, Martin had a strange feeling of closeness to Jerry.
Occasionally, when Cora was too busy in the clinic, Jerry would help take care of Martin.
So Martin really didn’t reject Jerry taking care of him at all.
Furthermore, Jerry not only had a taste of a child but also liked what a child liked.
He also liked car models and shooting games, which were exactly the same as Martin.
Once the two played together, Martin would even feel Cora getting in the way.
“That’s good.”
Cora heard Martin urging Jerry to start the game quickly, so she planned to hang up the phone first.
Jerry asked suddenly,
“The thing you were talking about is to remember the past between you and that man?”
Cora was stunned for a moment and then said,
“No. I have a patient here, and I want to help her get treated before leaving.”
Cora didn’t know if it was her illusion. It seemed that after she said the reason, Jerry’s mood obviously got better.
“Okay. Martin and I will wait for your return.”
Before hanging up the phone, Cora heard Jerry shouting at Martin.
“Let’s go, kiddo!”
Cora was speechless.
She really didn’t know how he could get along so well with a three-year-old at his age.
But Cora didn’t think about it too much. She hung up the phone and went to the First Hospital, where
Nora was at.
At nine o’clock in the evening, Cora came to Nora’s ward.
As soon as she knocked on the door, Nora’s slightly excited voice came from inside.
“Byron? Come in!”
Cora was a little taken aback.
But she quickly opened the door of the ward.
“Madam Hansen, it’s me.”
It was just that the moment Nora saw her, the joy in Nora’s eyes disappeared completely.
“Why are you here? What are you doing here?”
“I heard you were sick, so I came to see you.”
Cora knew that Byron’s death back then had dealt a big blow to Nora, and it also made Nora very repulsed to see her.
But she understood Nora and tried to smile at her.
She originally wanted to tell Nora that she had developed a medicine that should be able to cure her illness.
But thinking of Nora’s excited look just now, she felt a strange sense of anticipation in her heart.
So she changed the thing she was about to say.
“You were calling me Byron just now. Byron is not dead, right?”
She knew she shouldn’t have expectations. After all, he had been dead for four years.
But she just couldn’t control it!
But Cora hadn’t finished speaking yet when Nora seemed to have suddenly remembered something and quickly interrupted her.
“How dare you ask me? Didn’t you cause Byron’s death?
“It’s been four years. My Byron has been gone for four years…
“All this time, I’ve been hoping for him to come back and see me.”
Under Nora’s scolding and tearful outburst, Cora felt as if she was reminded of those years when she could often see Byron’s figure in a daze. That glimmer of hope in her heart seemed to be extinguished once again.
At that moment, Osborn pushed open the door.
“What’s going on here?”
Osborn walked over to Nora and comforted her.
Then Osborn saw Cora and said,
“You…”
He was about to say something, but Nora quietly tugged at his clothes.
His words changed as he was about to speak,
“What are you doing here?”
“I heard that Madam Hansen was sick, so I came to have a check on her.”
“Have a check on her? What can a cardiovascular surgeon like you do for her?”
Osborn frowned.
Nora chimed in,
“Osborn, ask her to leave. I don’t want to see her anymore, and I don’t want her to have a check on me.”
Seeing that Cora didn’t move, Nora spoke harshly,
“If it weren’t for the fact that you saved Osborn’s life back then, do you think I would allow you to stay in this world?”
“Did you hear that? Leave. Seeing you only reminds us of the pain of burying the loved one.”
Osborn also looked exhausted.
Cora saw that both Nora and Osborn looked extremely miserable, so she had no choice but to leave first.
But shortly after she left, Nora sent Osborn out to check.
“She’s gone?”
“She’s gone!”
Osborn glanced at the corridor outside the ward, confirmed that Cora’s figure was no longer there, and then returned to the room.
Nora visibly breathed a sigh of relief after confirming Cora’s departure.
“Is Byron coming later?”
“Yes, he called this afternoon and said he’ll come to accompany me tonight.”
Nora added,
“Just when I allowed them to be together, Byron had to suffer so much. It must be some kind of ill-fated connection between them. I really don’t want the two of them to meet now.”
“But I plan to bring Byron to the Hansen Group’s anniversary banquet tomorrow and officially hand over the Hansen Group to him. I’m afraid it will still reach her ears then!”
Osborn frowned.
Byron had just narrowly escaped death, and now Osborn only wanted his future life to be smooth sailing.
To ensure Byron’s happiness, Osborn handed over the Hansen Group without directly explaining it to
Byron for fear of his refusal.
All these arrangements were already settled, but he didn’t expect Cora to appear at this critical moment.
“We can deal with it if it reaches her later. As long as I’m alive, I won’t allow them to repeat the same mistakes!”
Nora asserted firmly.
About half an hour later, the door to the ward was pushed open again.
Seeing that familiar figure, both Osborn and Nora had smiles on their faces.
“Byron, come in quickly.”
“Did someone come here just now?”
Byron sniffed lightly, feeling a familiar yet unsettling presence in the air.
