Chapter 2092

Willow underwent a C-section and gave birth to her daughter. After that, she underwent another

surgery.

After Keegan got that number, he kept trying to contact Jayson, but he was unreachable.

Willow stayed in the hospital for six days but eventually passed away due to her injuries and wound

infection.

Keegan did not know Willow's family as she was not from Rivera. The police contacted her hometown's

police station and were informed that her family had moved away long ago. They were also trying to

reach them.

The phone number Willow had given to Keegan was his only option.

Three days after her death, Keegan got through to the phone.

Jayson was very cautious at first, thinking Keegan was playing a prank. However, when he heard the

crying of a child and how Keegan could accurately recite Willow's ID number, he immediately fell silent.

That night, a dark-skinned, muscular man with a buzz cut and rugged features arrived at the hospital

morgue. He appeared to be several years older than Keegan.

Because Willow was burned, her body did not look particularly sightly.

Jayson stood before her body with a lost expression. After a long time, he asked Keegan, "Is this her?"

Keegan could not answer his question, and Jayson did not need a response from him either. He took

her burned hand and recognized her by the ring on her slender and bony finger. After a long pause, he

said, "It's her..."

He stayed there for a long time without crying, just silently wiping the stains on Willow's body with his

sleeve. He moved so gently because her skin was ulcerated and would bleed at the slightest touch.

Keegan could not bear to watch it and went outside to wait for him.

When Jayson finally came outside, he asked Keegan if he had any cigarettes.

Keegan was not a smoker, so he took Jayson to a supermarket outside the hospital and bought two

packs of cigarettes.

Jayson was not particular about the brand. He opened the cigarette pack and sat on the roadside,

smoking one after another.

Keegan asked him, "Aren't you going to see your daughter?"

Jayson put out his cigarette and lifted his gaze at Keegan. "How did Willow die?"

Keegan paused momentarily before saying, "It was a car accident."

Jayson chuckled without showing any emotions. He then said, "I saw the Moore family. It was them,

right?"

Keegan had no idea why he had such speculation or why he had such strong hostility toward the

Moore family. However, he still explained, "No, it was really an accident. Marshall was in the car, too,

and was also severely injured. His life is still in danger."

The Moore family would not have disregarded Marshall's safety if they wanted the accident to happen.

Jayson's eyes turned red as he questioned Keegan through gritted teeth," Then why didn't he die? Why

does it have to be my wife who passed away?"

Keegan froze in place, unable to find the right words to say.

Then, he pursed his lips and shifted the topic. "Your daughter still needs to stay in the neonatal

intensive care unit for some time. Let me take you to see her."

But Jayson refused and said, "It's okay. I wouldn't have the heart to leave if I saw her. Can you take

care of her for me first?"novelbin

Keegan felt ridiculous. "Do you even know who I am? How could you entrust your child to me?" He

could not figure out why he was so devoted to his wife yet did not seem to care about his daughter at

all.ab
