Chapter 260 – Love Entangled with Her Unconscious Husband Novel Free (Volume II)

The longer she could not contact him, the stronger the ominous premonition she had inside her became.

Why did Wesley need to disappear with Shea if she was fine?

Averie took a deep breath as she felt a chill to the bone. Her fingers trembled as she opened up the messages on her phone and sent Wesley a text.

(Wesley. Did you ever think about how Elyette might be the one Shea would want to see the most if anything happened to her?]

She was afraid to say that Elyette was about to lose his mind!

She was worried that would scare Wesley.

Averie received no reply to her text.

Wesley’s actions this time were in complete contrast with his usual conduct!

The snow was falling harder when Averie emerged from Wesley’s house.

Her car was covered in a thick layer of white snow.

She loved the snow. If her head was not filled with worry, she would probably take a leisurely stroll in the snow or build a snowman like a happy child.

However, when the snow fell upon her face now, all she could feel was a chill to the bone.

Averie got into her car and drove to the hospital.

At the neonatal unit, there was no sign of Elyette.

She had no idea where he was, but she knew that he was in indescribable pain.

He must be suffering even more than the night before!

It was easier to get over a pain that one could release. It was the pain that one could not talk about that hurt to the depths of your soul.

Outside the gates of Angela Academy was a black Rolls–Roice.

The car was parked quietly as the wipers rhythmically swept off the snow on the windshield.

Elyette was sitting in the car with his deep–set eyes staring blankly ahead.

Shea had spent over a decade here.

The entire time she was here, her IQ was stuck at the stage of a child.

She was afraid of strangers and did not like to talk, but every time she saw him, she would happily call him “Big Brother“.

Averie called this place a beautiful prison that limited Shea‘s freedom, but that was not the case.

It was an environment that Shea was used to and could not leave behind.

Before her surgery, she was even more difficult to take care of compared to a typical child with mental disabilities.

Their father‘s abuse broke her apart, and she had no sense of security. If they changed the type. of towel she used, she would scream and cry. If they changed her hairstyle, she would also scream and cry…

Elyette‘s mind was filled with the sounds of her screams from various periods of time.”

It was because she had suffered a bitter life that he always went with whatever she wanted.

He thought he could take care of her forever, but something like this happened because of his carelessness!

It suddenly turned dark outside.

The snow had stopped falling, but the wipers were still continuing to work away. Countless illusions began to appear in front of Elyette‘s eyes.

It was as if he could see Shea running toward him in the dark calling out for him to get out of the car with a smile.

He grabbed the door handle and was about to open the door when he received a text. The text message notification pulled him out of his imagination and back to reality.

He was devastated! His heart throbbed in pain!

Elyette picked up his phone and saw a text from Shea!

She had sent him a video.

The video was recorded while Shea was in bed.

“I might die soon, Big Brother… I‘m so scared… I wish you could hug me, but I‘m too scared to ask Wesley to take me to you. I‘m worried you‘d blame me, but I‘m even more worried that you‘d be sad… That‘s why I asked Wesley to hide me… If I die, please don‘t cry, okay?“.

“Don‘t blame Wesley, Big Brother… I was the one who begged for hid help… Apart from you, he‘s the world‘s best man… Don‘t blame him, Big Brother… I‘m begging you…”

“There‘s one more secret I need to tell you… Mother… Our mother was… Cough cough… She was killed by someone…“a

As Elyette‘s tears fell onto his phone screen, he wiped them away with his fingers, but the video came to an end.

He watched the video once again, and his heart ached even more!

He immediately dialed Shea‘s number but was once again met by the monotonous sound of the system notification telling him that her phone was turned off.

This was the first time in her life that she made an important decision behind his back.

He would not forgive her, nor would he forgive himself!

He should have realized that she was smarter than she used to be. Why did he not notice that at all?

He should have been suspicious the moment Wesley arrived with the first bag of blood.

There were indeed good people in the world who would ask for nothing in return for their good deeds, but they would not so coincidentally bump into him.

At the same time, Averie also received a text message.

She picked up her phone and saw that it was from Wesley.

[I‘m sorry.]

The short message made Averie freeze in place.

Wesley was apologizing to her!

This meant that Shea truly was behind the two times that they received blood!

He drew Shea‘s blood!

Something definitely happened to her because of this!

That was the only reason why he had to apologize. In an instant, the world spun around Averie. She felt as if the energy had been sucked out of her and she almost lost her bearings.

“What‘s wrong, Averie?” Chad quickly held onto her. “You haven‘t been in good shape since you arrived at noon. My boss hasn‘t dropped by today either. What‘s going on?”

Robert was not completely free from danger yet, so Chad thought that Averie was out of her wits because of that.

However, her emotions were obviously triggered by what she just saw on her phone.

Something must have happened.

Averie tried her best to control her emotions. She did not want to lose her composure in front of Chad.

However, she could not stay calm every time she thought about how the blood that extended Robert’s life was Shea‘s!

Her lips moved as she was about to answer Chad‘s question, but the doctor walked over before she could say a word.

“Robert is in stable condition now, Miss Tate! He‘s been improving since the blood transfusion last night. He‘s doing much better than he did the first few times!”

The doctor‘s words greatly delighted Chad.

“That‘s amazing! Mr. Foster would be overjoyed when he finds out about this! I‘ll call him right now.”

He pulled out his phone and was about to call Elyette when Averie reached out and held his hand.

“Don‘t bother him.”

“It‘s great news that Robert‘s condition improved. Why would that bother him?” Chad was confused. “What exactly is going on, Averie? Shouldn‘t you be happy that Robert‘s going to be saved? Why do you look so sad?”

Averie withdrew her hand, then hung her head and choked, “Shea‘s in trouble.”

Chad took a sharp breath, then exclaimed, “What happened to Shea?! She was just fine yesterday. She even said that she wanted to go help find sources of blood. How could something suddenly happen to her?!” This entire thing was absurd!

He had thought that they could finally feel relieved now that Robert‘s condition had improved … How did Shea get in trouble during this crucial moment?!

Averie wanted to answer his question, but the moment she opened her mouth, her tears rolled down her cheeks as she sobbed, “She did find a source… That‘s because… She‘s the source…”

The expression on Chad‘s face instantly changed.

The doctor was also stunned. It was sometime later before Chad called Mike and asked him to rush back to Aryadelle.

Chapter 751

“Robert made it through the critical period.”

On the other side of the line, Mike was ecstatic. “That’s wonderful! Let’s have a party to celebrate once I’m back!”

“What’s there to celebrate about?” Chad’s voice was chilling.

“Shea’s dead. She sacrificed herself to save Robert.”

Mike thought he had heard wrongly.“Hurry up and get back here, Mike! I can’t leave Averie alone, but I need to find my boss,” Chad said in a strained voice. “This is a huge blow to him!”

At the Foster mansion, Elyette locked himself inside Shea’s room.

Earlier, someone had sent over a package. Inside of it was Shea’s phone.

The phone was filled with selfies and videos of Shea.

He looked through every photo and watched every video.

Her lively smile made it seem like she was right in front of him, but she would never again appear before him.

During the years that Elyette had taken care of her, Shea was his spiritual support.

That was because he could only guarantee that nobody would pick on her if he lived a good life.

However, she ended up leaving him behind in such a cruel way.

When Mrs. Cooper rushed over, she saw Mrs. Scarlet in tears.

Mrs. Scarlet had taken care of Shea ever since she was a child.

Shea was afraid of strangers, and Mrs. Scarlet was the one who spent the most time with her every single day.

She treated Shea like her own daughter. How could she possibly accept that this was the end?

“Shea was too kind.” Mrs. Coope handed a napkin to Mrs. Scarlet.

“The fact that she made this decision behind Averie’s and Master Elyette’s back means that she knew very well that neither of them would let her donate blood, even if that meant losing Robert.”

Mrs. Scarlet was beyond devastated. “How stupid of her! She never thought about herself! It’s all my fault for now stopping her when she called me! Who would go pray on top of some hill in the middle of the night?! If I’d stopped her then, she wouldn’t have hidden away!”

At this point, Mrs. Scarlet cried in agony, “I want proof! If Shea’s really dead, then I want to see her body!”

Mrs. Cooper’s brows furrowed. “This is Wesley’s fault. How could he just go with whatever she said? He knows about Shea’s condition! Sigh!”

After a good cry, Mrs. Scarlet’s reason gradually began to return.

“You should go and take care of Averie.”

“She didn’t come home tonight,” Mrs. Cooper said. “How could she handle something like this? It’d be fine if Robert recovered, but if any problems pop up later on…”

“No way! Robert will be fine! If anything happened to him…” At this point, Mrs. Scarlet was suddenly out of breath. “Master Elyette’s luck can’t possibly get any worse!”

Over at the hospital, Averie was sitting on a bench in the hallway. Her expression was blank and her eyes were lifeless. It was as if she was an empty shell.

She had spent every second of every day hoping for Robert to get better soon.

Now that Robert’s condition had improved, she felt even more gutted.

She did not know with what emotions she should be facing this absurd reality.

Just like night, she was sitting here with Elyette. They were filled with worry over Robert’s condition, but at least they could depend on each other.

Now, Averie felt as if she was indebted to him!

It was a debt that could never be repaid. She could never pay him back with Robert’s life, because he was Elyette’s son, too.

This strange and complicated hitch left her feeling deeply powerless!

The next morning arrived in the blink of an eye.

After thoroughly examining Robert, the doctor approached Averie and said, “Robert’s in stable condition now, Miss Tate. You can go home and rest. We’ll let you know if anything happens again.”

Averie nodded her head, then got up from the bench.

“I haven’t told Mr. Foster about Robert’s condition, Miss Tate. I heard that he was very upset right now, so I didn’t want to bother him,” said the doctor hesitantly. “Please talk to him! No matter what happened, the fact that Robert’s now out of danger is something worth being happy about.”
