Chapter 152
Sandra walked in at that moment, spotting Seraphina standing in a corner. She quickly headed overand took her hand
Seraphina slowly lifted her gaze and offered a faint smile
There was no news at the moment, and that in itself was somewhat good news
Sandra didn’t know what to say, so she just stood there in silence beside her.
A few minutes later, Leandro finally appeared at the entrance of the emergency room.
The sight of him felt like a pillar of strength to the Reynolds family who immediately surrounded him,updating him on the situation
Leandro listened in silence, his expression grave. He turned his head and finally noticed Seraphina inthe corner.
Seraphina was leaning against the wall, standing quietly, her gaze calm as she watched the group ofpeople in front of her, her emotions unreadable
As her eyes met Leandro’s, she merely glanced at him before looking away.
Sandra was also watching Leandro this man whom she had learned so much about from Seraphina’sdescription and various news reports. But it was only today that she was seeing him up close for thefirst time.
She was convinced in her heart that this man was no good, yet she found herself taken aback by hisaura at their first meeting.
Even without careful observation, it was clear that this man was indifferent yet dominant. Sandra hadmet many rich heirs; some were arrogant, some were gentle, and some were overbearing, but fewwere like Leandro.
He was like a long–reigning monarch, always self–centered and power–focused, unable to understandor care about the troubles of ordinary people.
If he liked something, he could possess it all. If he didn’t, he could destroy it all.
This kind of man was heartless.
Almost as if to prove her thoughts right, Leandro glanced at the corner and then asked in a deep voice,“Where’s Lacy?”
Lacy, who was standing around the corner, came out trembling at the sound of Leandro’s voice, “Mr.Reynolds…
Leandro looked at him, his gaze cold, “What happened?”
Lacy, with a dry mouth, managed to say. “Conway was taking a walk in the nursing home today. Thenurse went to get him some water, and I saw it was windy, so I went to fetch his jacket. I didn’t thinkthat he would fall down as soon as I left…
Leandro turned to the person next to him after hearing this, “Did you get that?”
Accompanying him was not only Keen but also a lawyer from the Reynolds Group. Seeing thesituation, the lawyer immediately nodded, “Yes, Mr. Reynolds.”
Leandro gave Lacy another look and fell silent.
Lacy felt weak under his gaze, and Keen together with the lawyer took Lacy away
However, Keen returned soon after, glanced at the lit light in the emergency room, hesitated for amoment but still went over to Leandro, whispering, “Mr. Reynolds, there is a call from Starhaven.”
Bruce, standing nearby, heard this and frowned, “Why are you taking calls at a time like this?”
Leandro glanced at him, “It’s not like I can be of any help here if I don’t take the call
After saying this, he took the phone from Keen and walked out.
Sandra, arm in arm with Seraphina, watched Leandro’s every action calmly until he left. Only then didshe turn to look at Seraphina again.
Seraphina had been looking at the door of the emergency room all this time, without sparing Leandroan extra glance.
Two minutes later, the door of the emergency room suddenly opened, everyone immediately crowdedaround. Sandra instinctively wanted to pull Seraphina forward, but Seraphina remained standing still.
“Seraphina?”
Sandra turned to look at her. Seraphina merely looked at the backs of the crowd.
She heard Bruce asking the doctor about the situation, then she heard the doctor say, “We’re still doingour best, but Conway’s heart has stopped several times I hope you’re prepared.”
Upon hearing this, the men of the Reynolds family managed to keep their composure, but the womenhad already started to cry uncontrollably.
Sandra looked at Seraphina worriedly, but Seraphina’s face remained calm. After a moment, she let outa soft sigh.
“Seraphina.”
Seraphina didn’t move, her gaze somewhat vacant as she looked ahead, slowly saying, “Life and deathare fate, I understand that
Sandra didn’t dare to say anything more
After what felt like an eternity, the door to the emergency room opened again.
“Conway is awake!” The doctor sounded elated, “His condition is temporarily stable!”
Upon hearing this, the Reynolds family immediately rushed towards the emergency room, only to bestopped by the doctor.
Then, Conway’s bed was wheeled out from the emergency room and, accompanied by a crowd, waspushed towards the ward.

Seraphina still stood in the corner, unmoving, until Sandra gently squeezed her hand. “Let’s go to theward”
Only then did Seraphina seem to come back to her senses, nodding and slowly making her way to theward.
The ward was crowded, and Seraphina stood at the door, trying to catch a glimpse of Conway throughthe sea of people in front of her.
Not long after, the crowd around the bed parted to allow Seraphina a clear view of the bed
On the bed, Conway lay there, his face pale, but reaching out a trembling hand towards her.
“Seraphina, Conway is calling you” Bruce said.
Seraphina then walked into the room, making her way to Conway’s bed, and took his frail hand in hers.
Conway’s hand was cold, but hers was even colder, so much so that she felt warmth.
But as she held Conway’s hand, she didn’t say a word.
Conway just looked at her, giving a slight smile, “What’s up with you?”
Seraphina didn’t respond, but the next moment, hot tears uncontrollably slid down her face.
She kept her lips tightly shut staying silent, with tears continuously falling, just falling
“What are you crying for?” Nanette said impatiently. “He’s fine, don’t make a scene here!”
But Seraphina seemed not to hear, she just looked at Conway, slowly beginning to sob out loud.
Everyone else in the room remained silent, with only the various sounds from Conway’s bedsidemonitors echoing with her sobs in the air. Conway’s condition had already stabilized, yet she wasgradually losing control, crying like a little child, leaning on the side of Conway’s bed, tears and snotrunning down her face
“Seraphina, it’s okay now, stop crying” Bruce stepped forward, lightly patting Seraphina’s back.
Everyone else looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do.
Only Conway didn’t stop her, letting her cry her heart out.
Outside the crowd, Sandra, hearing Seraphina’s sobs, struggled to bear it and ran out of the room.
She covered her mouth and hurriedly walked out, passing many places, until finally, she ran intoBowen’s arms in the garden.
“What happened?” Bowen saw her red eyes and the way she was biting her lip to hold back, andquickly asked, “Is Seraphina’s grandpa not doing well?”
Seeing him, Sandra finally broke down and cried, struggling to say, “No…”
“Then why are you crying?” Bowen reached out to wipe the tears off her face.
Sandra looked up at him, her face streaked with tears, “Seraphina said, life and death are destined.After her grandpa passes, she can be free, go wherever she wants. But when her grandpa really isdying, she’s scared and can’t stop crying… I’ve never seen Seraphina cry like this. She’s lost so much,but she’s never cried like this ”
Bowen, hearing this, silently held Sandra in his arms, gently stroking her head.
“She didn’t cry like this when she was kicked out by the Reynolds family. She wasn’t this upset whenshe had no place in the Wilson family, even when she lost Betty, she didn’t cry like this…” Sandra wasalso crying uncontrollably, “She really can’t lose anyone else. She can’t lose anymore…
Bowen silently held her tighter, softly comforting, “It’s okay, everything will get better..”
“Bowen Sandra called his name in a hoarse voice.
“It’s okay, stop crying” Bowen said, “You need to comfort her… If you cry like this, she’ll be even moreupset…”
In the dim garden lights of the night, Leandro walked past them from the back corridor, heading straighttowards the hospital building.
Bowen looked at Leandro’s retreating figure, signaling Sandra to look.
Sandra followed his gesture, turning to look at Leandro, her tears suddenly stopping.
“It’s all his fault, all his faultSandra said through gritted teeth, crying.
Bowen held her closer again, lightly patting her back, “it’s okay, stop crying…”
When Leandro walked into Conway’s room, Seraphina was still crying.
Everyone else seemed to want to step forward to comfort her, but Conway gestured for them to leavefirst.
No one wanted to leave.
Until Leandro came in, saw the situation, and slowly said, “you guys should go back, it’s quite late,don’t disturb his rest.”novelbin
“All right then” Ferne glanced at Seraphina who was still sobbing by the bed, her eyes also becomingmoist as she spoke, “Why are you crying so loud, as if you’ve been greatly wronged…”
As she spoke, she seemed unable to bear being affected by Seraphina’s emotions and turned to leavethe room.
After Ferne left, everyone else also gradually left, leaving only Seraphina by the bedside.
One of Conway’s hands was held by Seraphina, his other hand struggling to stroke her head, butSeraphina’s sobbing never stopped
Leandro sat on the sofa opposite the bed, quietly watching all this.
After a while, Seraphina’s sobs gradually lessened, but she still rested her head on Conway’s hand, notlifting it.
“My hand’s been soaking in your tears for a while now.” Conway slowly began to speak, Tm fine, whyare you crying?”
Finally, Seraphina slowly lifted her head, her eyes and nose both red from crying, and after seeingConway clearly, she finally spoke her first words, “I just want to cry.”
