Chapter 211
“Mr. Dawson?” The nurse, who was removing the pillowcase, turned and looked at Willow.
“Yes, Mr. Dawson. I heard he was out of danger. Is he doing better now?”
“Mr. Dawson has passed away,” the other nurse said indifferently, showing little interest in engaging with Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Willow.
Willow’s heart sank. “Passed away? What do you mean?”
“Passed away means he’s dead. He’s never coming back.” The nurse looked at Willow impatiently before returning to her task. Clearly, she didn’t want to continue the conversation.
Dead… Never coming back..
Willow felt her heart plunge into the depths of despair. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, falling like pearls slipping off the string of a broken necklace.
She desperately hoped that Quintus‘ call had been a cruel prank. However, the two nurses said that Kenan would never come back. They couldn’t possibly be joking with her, along with Quintus.
Kenan was truly gone.
Instantly, all the strength drained from Willow’s body. She helplessly crouched on the ground and hugged herself tightly, but her body continued to shiver uncontrollably from the cold.
She had promised him that she would marry him when he woke up. She would be his beautiful bride in her finest dress. But yesterday, Zayn had violated her.
Was losing him forever heaven’s way of punishing her for not being faithful to Kenan?
But why did Kenan, who was so good and warm, have to be the one to pay the price? They should take her instead since she was the filthy one.
With shaking hands, she took out her phone and wanted to call Quintus to find out where Kenan’s body.
was.
But no matter how many times she dialed, Quintus didn’t answer.
Unable to find Kenan, Willow could only leave the hospital like a lifeless shell.
The weather was growing colder. The biting wind cut across her face like knives. Normally, she would be freezing, but today, she felt numb to everything.
She walked aimlessly down the street, not knowing where to go. Suddenly, her phone rang. She hoped it was Quintus calling her back, but it turned out to be Thane.
Thane’s voice was filled with regret. “Venus, I’m sorry, but we can’t sign the contract today. You truly are the perfect ambassador for Whispers of Love in my eyes, but Zayn….
“Well, he used my family’s business to threaten me. I really fear his authority, so I’m choosing Skyler.
“I’m so sorry, Venus. I know my actions are unforgivable, but I sincerely wish you all the best. I believe that with your talent, you will become the brightest star in Marley and beyond.”
Hearing Thane’s words, Willow didn’t know what to feel.
Anger? Yes, at Zayn.
Resentment? Yes, also at him.
Kenan had always hoped she would become the ambassador for Whispers of Love and shine brightly.
She had thought that even with Kenan gone, she could fulfill his last wish by securing the ambassador role and shining brilliantly for once.
