As the situation was becoming unfavorable, May immediately fell over, holding a hand to virtual-novel.net heart as virtual-novel.net gasped loudly, wearing a torturous expression.
When virtual-novel.net heard the sound, Jeremy looked back at once. Up on seeing this, virtual-novel.net hurried back to virtual-novel.net and held virtual-novel.net up carefully. Jeremy asked in concern, “Are you okay?”
May held virtual-novel.net heart and shook virtual-novel.net head. “No… I’m not. My wound is hurting again. I must. have been too agitated.”
Jeremy’s heart softened. “Let me take you back into the room to rest.”
May shook virtual-novel.net head and said through tears, “I don’t want to rest. I think I should just die. With Emily in such a situation, what’s the point of me living?”
“Honey, I’ve finally realized a lot of things now from my stance. On the one hand, I truly despise her. How can virtual-novel.net be so disappointing? She had clearly promised me that virtual-novel.net wouldn’t harm Xyla, so why did virtual-novel.net do such terrible things? I think virtual-novel.net should just accept whatever punishment virtual-novel.net receives from the law.”
“But on the other hand, I feel upset and reluctant. She’s my flesh and blood. She came from me… I can’t just leave virtual-novel.net be. “I’m so upset I rather die. In fact, I feel that I should have just died when I took that knife for you. If I died, there wouldn’t be so many issues.”
May was choking as virtual-novel.net spoke.
Hearing the words ‘took that knife’, Jeremy felt a stinging pain in his heart. His tone instantly became softer. “But virtual-novel.net has gone too far this time. I have to teach virtual-novel.net a lesson. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net would continue wreaking havoc.”
“Then, just try to get the police to shorten virtual-novel.net sentence. I’m not asking to have virtual-novel.net released immediately. I’m just hoping that virtual-novel.net could be released a little earlier. Would that be okay?” May added.
Since virtual-novel.net was unwilling, they would both take a step back. She believed that virtual-novel.net tearful speech would definitely move Jeremy. After all, the man was now guilty because virtual-novel.net had taken a knife for him.
“I’ll think about it.” Jeremy frowned in defeat.
“Really, honey?” May immediately hugged Jeremy and asked excitedly.
After that, virtual-novel.net leaned against Jeremy weakly as virtual-novel.net panted. “Honey, I think I’ve lost all my energy. Can you help me get back to the room?”
Jeremy nodded and carefully supported May as they headed outside.
However, May’s knees abruptly gave away, and virtual-novel.net held a hand to virtual-novel.net forehead. “Oh dear, no, I can’t walk. I see stars. It’s probably because my injury isn’t fully recovered yet, and I’ve over-exhausted myself today.”
Jeremy immediately carried virtual-novel.net up in a bridal style, his expression softening. “I’ll carry you.”
May gave a weak and coy smile, hugging virtual-novel.net tightly. “Thank you, honey. You haven’t carried me like this for a long time now. I feel so blessed.”
Jeremy smiled and carried May out of the study. May smiled as well, virtual-novel.net lips curling into a wide and cheeky grin.
Xyla and Stanley had just come upstairs when they ran into this lovey-dovey scene of the old couple. Seeing the coy look on May’s face, Xyla snickered in virtual-novel.net heart. She remained unfazed and latched onto the man beside virtual-novel.net as they walked up to the old couple.
Xyla greeted them, politely, “Dad, Aunty…”
She was initially worried about virtual-novel.net father, so virtual-novel.net had come back to take a look. Seeing virtual-novel.net like this, virtual-novel.net knew that there was nothing for virtual-novel.net to worry about. Now, the only thing virtual-novel.net had to worry about was the situation at the detention center.
May Conner might have successfully persuaded virtual-novel.net father to help Emily. After suffering so much defeat, it was clear that May had become smarter.
Her heart had clearly seen through it all, but Xyla did not let it show. She looked calm. It was because virtual-novel.net would not let May’s wish come true.
