Chapter 411
In the end, Chris completed the procedures for Chloe to get discharged. He also made a meal at home.Chloe was extremely weak as she sat in the wheelchair.
She kept calling Marina over the phone. She still missed Marina despite everything.
To not upset Chloe, Chris didn’t tell her the truth.
She had done everything a mother should do. He didn’t want Chloe to leave with regrets.
“Don’t mind her. She has always been a stubborn girl, so maybe she’ll come home in a few days.”
“You’re right.”
Chloe only assumed that Marina hated her as always. So, she didn’t insist much on it.
At the table, Chloe kept telling Ethan to treat Marina well in the future. She told him not to hurt Marina,and that Marina was a good woman.
Suppressing his coldness, Ethan promised to do what she said.
Even though Marina wasn’t present at the meal, Chloe was happy. She even drank some alcohol, and
her face was flushed.
She asked Olivia to watch the sunset with her. She was very talkative.
“Liv, if I knew that I would end up like this, I would’ve treasured the time I spent with you. When yourdad wakes up someday, please tell him I’m sorry. I’ve wronged him.”
“Okay.”
“I truly hope that you can be happy. Can you stop blaming Marina for snatching Ethan away? After all,things have already turned out like this. There’s nothing we can change anymore.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t fight with her for a man like that. Since I’ve already given up on him, I won’t lookback.”
Chloe looked at Olivia for a long while. Then, she reached out and embraced Olivia. “You’re a goodchild.”novelbin
But this world was unfair. The ones who got hurt were mostly the good ones.
The next morning, Chris took Chloe to a mountaintop to watch the sunrise. Leaning in his embrace,Chloe watched the golden rays on one end of the sky.
She sighed in amazement. “It’s so pretty. I wish I could watch sunrises with you forever.”
Hugging her, Chris suppressed his tears. “As long as you like it, I can keep you company forever.”
“Darling, meeting you was the happiest thing in my life. It’s a pity that I can’t be with you for the rest ofyour life.”

Olivia and Ethan stood a distance away, looking at the two embracing figures, Chloe’s face wasespecially calm and beautiful at that moment.
They both knew that she was temporarily regaining her health for one last time.
When the sun rose to its apex, Chloe’s hand dropped out of Chris’ palm.
Chris behaved as if he didn’t feel anything. He hugged Chloe quietly with a gentle smile on his lips.
Lowering his head, he gazed at the woman in his arms, whose eyes were tightly closed. He planted agentle kiss between her eyebrows. There was not a hint of sadness in his eyes.
In a soft voice that no one else could hear, he said, “Honey, I’ve told you this before. No matter whereyou go, I’ll always be with you.”
Sensing something was wrong, Olivia rushed over to him. She caught sight of the blood trickling out ofa corner of Chris’ lips.
“Mr. Carlton! What did you do? Hurry, call 911.”
Ethan’s gaze was dark. “It’s too late.”
Looking at the two, Chris said, “Olivia, your mother is very timid. She must be so scared to be alone. Ihave to go with her. When we die, can you please bury us next to each other?”
Olivia knelt beside the two, tears running down her face. “Okay.”
“Ethan, I leave Marina in your hands. The Carltons will have to depend on you too.’
“I understand.”
“Then I have no more regrets. Don’t cry, Olivia. I’m going to see your mom now. Take care.”
With that, he closed his eyes peacefully. Then, he dropped to the ground with Chloe, basked in thewarm morning light.
