Josie, Caroline frowned, You’re just in time. Help me downstairs, and get the car ready. I need to go to the hospital.
Ms. Bennett.
Josie looked troubled, hesitating as she spoke, Mr. Johnson left strict orders that you’re not to go anywhere.
What? Caroline’s anger flared up again, You’re talking nonsense!
I’m not… Josie stammered, Mr. Johnson also said that if you start wandering around… then I might as well start looking for a new job.
Caroline was stunned, staring at the nurse in disbelief, a chill running through her entire body.
Francis, how could he do this to her?
…
Sherilyn rushed to the hospital after receiving a call from Francis.
Big brother? What about Gilbert?
Francis hadn’t gone into detail on the phone, just that Gilbert had collapsed at the Johnson family home.
What happened?
The doors to the emergency room remained shut, with Gilbert still inside.
Sherilyn, Francis said gravely, gesturing for her to sit. Gilbert and Caroline had an argument.
Sherilyn was taken aback. Gilbert went to see Caroline?
Francis sighed deeply, You and Gilbert had a fight, didn’t you?
Sherilyn frowned, not denying it.
Francis shook his head, looking at her with a mix of guilt and sorrow. Sherilyn, those four years were hard on you. It’s my fault, and I’m sorry.
Sherilyn stiffened, caught off guard by his words.
I learned about this at the same time as Gilbert, he continued with a heavy heart. I asked Gilbert to keep it under wraps, but I didn’t foresee this outcome… I’m sorry for what happened. en FindNovel
Sherilyn was dumbfounded. Was this really true? Did this come from her big brother?
I know it’s unfair to you, Francis said, his voice filled with regret. But sometimes, life doesn’t allow us to have it both ways.
Caroline has her faults, but we owe her our lives. If it weren’t for her,
there wouldn’t be a Gilbert, or ne
Johnson family… Do you understand?
Sherilyn was silent, eyes closed to hold back the tears.
What could she say when he put it like that?
A debt of life is immeasurable.
With Caroline holding this trump card, the brothers would never dare to cross her.
I’m truly sorry… Francis sighed, From now on, I’ll handle everything related to Caroline. You and Gilbert should live your lives.
He stood up, facing Sherilyn. I apologize for the hardship of those years… It’s my fault.
Then he bent down, bowing deeply.
Big brother! Sherilyn instantly stood up, hastily supporting him. Please, don’t do this!
Having been brought up by the Johnson family, she couldn’t possibly accept such a gesture.
Sherilyn, Francis said earnestly, I know you don’t need money now but when you and Gilbert get married, the Johnson family will prepare a generous dowry for you, ensuring a grand wedding.
Big brother… Sherilyn choked up, tears streaming down her face.
If you must blame someone, blame me. If you and Gilbert break up, and he suffers for it, I… I couldn’t forgive myself.
Francis thought of Caroline’s erratic behavior and sighed.
Caroline revealed all this to provoke you… If she tries to tell you anything else, don’t believe a word!
If you and Gilbert split because of this, it would be exactly what she wants, right?
