Chapter 14
“Shut up!”
Elaine still had tears on her face, but she was stunned.
Graham didn’t look at her again, and couldn’t help thinking about Melody
After graduating from college, he officially took over the Dorrick Group. He was super busy and had stomach problems because he ate irregularly for a long time.
After Melody got together with him, she originally wanted him to quit coffee, but it didn’t work. So she strictly controlled how much coffee he drank and kept bringing him all kinds of healthy teas.
She would keep stomach medicine at home, at work, and even in her bag.
Early last year, he had an acute stomach problem.
Melody calmly got him some stomach medicine, arranged a car to take him to the hospital, and contacted his personal doctor on the way.
Everything was in order until his symptoms eased, then she looked at him, her eyes red.
Graham held her hand and realized her palm was all sweaty. She was actually more scared than anyone.
The ambulance arrived, he was put on it, and it drove to the hospital.
In the blurry view, all I saw were unfamiliar faces.
At that moment, he suddenly really missed Melody.

Chapter 14
Graham’s eyes felt hot, and he totally lost consciousness.
Graham didn’t wake up in the hospital room until the next afternoon.
Elaine stayed by the bed, her eyes red as she looked at him.
“Graham, you finally woke up. I made you some porridge. Eat a little.”
Graham shook his head, “No need, you’re tired too, just go back first.”
Elaine didn’t want to, but he insisted, so she had to leave the hospital room, looking back every few steps.
Graham picked up the porridge from the cabinet, and it felt icy cold.
The lunchbox that had just been eaten was sitting on the side, still steaming.
He froze for a long time, then suddenly laughed.
He pulled out the needle, supported his still weak body, and walked to another ward, the one where Olive was.
But someone inside had changed.

Graham’s heart tightened. He grabbed the nurse in the room, “Where’s my mom? Why didn’t you tell me she changed rooms?”
“Mr. Dorrick,” the nurse was surprised, “your mother–in–law passed away half a month ago. You… didn’t know?”
A bucket of cold water was dumped right over his head, and Graham just stood there like a statue.
The nurse took the chance and broke free from his hand.
“Your
wife handled the paperwork, your wife had a miscarriage, lost her

mother, and even had a liver transplant surgery, and you didn’t notice anything wrong with her mood?”

The nurse gave a bit of a reproachful look, “Mr. Dorrick, your wife has a history of depression, you didn’t forget that, did you?”
Graham’s lips moved, but he couldn’t say a word.
Olive passed away, and Melody didn’t even talk to him about it.
No, she actually said it.
Graham remembered the day he went to the beach to find her. Details he hadn’t noticed before were now especially clear in his mind.
Melody’s face was pale, her eyes were swollen, and there were candles that had been burned and still had sparks.
And at that time, he didn’t even ask a single question.
He wanted Melody to donate her liver to save the person she hated most.
He wanted her to make it up to the one she owed the least, Elaine.
Graham’s fingertips trembled. He looked at the nurse, “Do you know where Melody went?”
“You must be joking, she’s your wife. Where did she go? Don’t you know yourself?” the nurse asked back.
Graham was speechless.
The one who should’ve known best didn’t know anything about where Melody went.
Graham numbly walked out of the hospital room, called someone to find Melody, then drove away from the hospital.

to the beach where Melody had scattered the ashes,
and his empty stomach started hurting again.
The phone rang, it was Elaine’s call.
He hung up again.
For five years, Graham thought he loved Elaine, and marrying Melody was something he had to do.
But at that moment, he suddenly realized he was wrong…
He was only obsessed with Elaine.
He had already fallen in love with Melody.
Graham walked back, looking lost, thinking about trying his luck
somewhere else.
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks.
Not far away, some people walked over with their arms around each other’s shoulders, and one of them was Melody’s Tyler.
And the other one was the thug who bullied Elaine at the birthday party.
