Chapter 701: Chapter 665: The Youngster’s Hair Turns White (2 Updates)

In the small building.

The white-haired man was holding the girl’s hand and fell into a deep sleep by the edge of the bed.

The girl’s breathing was very steady.

This scene resembled to the great extent, a man and a woman leaning on each other in a lone boat.

It was such a heart-wrenching scene that no one dared to step forward and break it.

"Let’s wait a bit before going in there," Yvette Foster wiped away her tears from the corner of her eyes and whispered to everyone.

Adam Stephens, watching the scene inside, also felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

All their worries before had eventually become true.

Under normal circumstances, they would be venting their anger on the man. Right now though, they just couldn’t barge in and reprimand him.

For Len Hawthorne, it was as if he’d aged prematurely for the sake of their daughter. One must be in profound grief to become white-haired overnight.

The scenes of that day were becoming enlarged in their mind.

And they were incredibly clear.

After leaving the small building, everyone dispersed.

Franklin Walter and others didn’t dare to stay too long either. The atmosphere in the Stephens Family home felt like there were some unresolved issues.

"Yvette, I..."

Yvette Foster didn’t look at Adam and said to Alex Stephens, "You can visit Chloe after you wake up."

Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, Alex wanted to speak but held back.

Yvette Foster knew what he was worried about and said, "We will solve the issue between your father and me."

Hearing this, Alex went back to rest in his accommodation.

At this moment, Elliot Xenos came over and requested the couple to visit Pierce Stephens.

As they entered, Pierce Stephens asked them to sit down, and then explained to Yvette Foster about Adam Stephens’ abnormal behavior during that time.

After listening, Yvette Foster’s expression gradually softened.

However, she still remembered clearly the cold indifference Adam had shown her.

Even the most devoted couples might one day develop a crack due to certain reasons.

In the past, she only knew how to avoid, but had never faced it head-on.

After this incident, she fully understood that one should never overly depend on another person, even if that person is their spouse.

"Yvette, it was my fault this time. I was under control and wronged you," Adam, seeing Yvette’s softened expression, hurriedly reassured her. "During the most difficult time, you had to bear it all alone. Yvette, I promise I won’t fall into the same situation again. I know this incident has hurt you a lot, but I cannot compensate it with mere words."

Excuses can in no way erase what had already happened.

Although he was compelled to be so.

Still, it was he himself who had caused harm to Yvette Foster, irrespective of being under control.

If his willpower was stronger, his wife would never have been subjected to such hurt.

The perpetrator was almost godlike. Even a person like Albert Webb was controlled for a while, let alone Adam Stephan.

If Len Hawthorne was also manipulated similarly, he would be significantly affected too.

Domination of power is not a joking matter.

Yvette Foster pursed her lips, her eyes welled up with tears, "Do you have any idea what I have been through during this time?"

"I know," Adam, with pained eyes, hugged her tightly, "I will not let myself be controlled again, trust me."

If such a thing were to happen again, he would rather fall into a deep slumber than hurting his beloved again.

Yvette Foster buried her face in his chest and cried silently.

This would be her last time crying.

Next time, she wouldn’t allow herself to shed tears.

And Adam wouldn’t give Yvette this kind of chance ever again.

"In the future, don’t say such terrifying things as divorce," Adam remembered Yvette’s expression when she mentioned divorce, and shuddered at the thought.

Yvette spoke hoarsely, "Then don’t give me a chance to say it."

"Never again."

Seeing the couple reconcile, Pierce Stephens and Charlotte Richardson breathed a sigh of relief.

They were really worried that if this fight escalated, it would greatly affect the Stephens family, and they were even more worried that the two might split up .

They didn’t want to see the image of a broken family.

Chloe woke up.

The person next to her hadn’t left yet.

Len Hawthorne hadn’t rested for many days as well. After Chloe woke up, he also took a rest together with her.

"You’re awake?"

He had been gazing at the sleeping person just now, fearing that it had been an illusion before.

With his help, Chloe sat up. Her clear and bright eyes gazed at him, "My fried rice."

Len Hawthorne couldn’t help but laugh, his charm still irresistible. "Little Chloe remembers this as soon as she wakes up?"

"You promised."

"Yes, what I promised to you, I will definitely do," Len Hawthorne pinched her nose. "I’m going to borrow some pots and pans from the Stephens family to cook fried rice for Little Chloe."

"Hmm."

"Stay put."

"Hmm."

Seeing the obedient little girl nodding, Len Hawthorne curved his lips, suddenly leaned down and touched his face to her fair cheek.

The touch of warmth and chill shocked Chloe.

Len Hawthorne half-held her head, then touched her forehead again. After confirming she had no other symptoms, he pulled away.

"Wait."

*

When Len Hawthorne borrowed the kitchen from the Stephens family, they hadn’t yet realized that Chloe had woken up. By the time he finished cooking the fried rice and took it over.

He ran into Adam Stephens coming from the other side. He just wanted to check on his daughter. Seeing the fried rice in Len Hawthorne’s hand, then seeing his expression, Adam felt that the old Len Hawthorne had returned.

He felt a bit inexplicable.

"You ..."

Adam wanted to thank him, but remembering that Len had violated his daughter’s privacy, Adam’s expression became quite complex.

"It was a breeze. I would have done the same for anyone. Director Stephens, don’t worry about it. I take a lot of responsibility for Chloe."

"Maybe it wasn’t your lone star curse that killed her, maybe it was just a coincidence ..." Saying this, seemed kind of wrong.

Because the person lying there was his daughter.

When Len Hawthorne was holding the cold body of Chloe, he was also frantically blaming himself for treating her too well, leading to her death because of him.

He was careful, yet he still killed her in the end.

He was regretful, panicked, and would do anything to trade his life for hers.

"Thank you," Len Hawthorne thanked Adam.

This left Adam somewhat speechless.

He should have been angry at Len Hawthorne for harming his daughter, but looking at the young man’s white hair and recalling the scene at that time, he couldn’t bring himself to say a word of blame.

Adam’s gaze fell on the fried rice in his hand, saying: "Put it down, the Stephens family will make something more nutritious for you."

He was so young and his hair had turned white, he needed to recover.

However, Len Hawthorne just laughed, "This is what Chloe wanted to eat, she must be impatient by now."

He said as he walked into the corridor before him.

Adam widened his eyes in surprise, glimpsing the back of Len Hawthorne, he suddenly felt worried.

Had Len Hawthorne gone mad?

Apparently, people who were excessively sad would unconsciously make up some beautiful scenes and fall into another self-made scenario.

In other words, he could have gone insane!

Adam frowned deeply and followed closely behind to prevent Len Hawthorne from doing something foolish to both himself and Chloe.

As he entered the door of the small building and saw the scene of the young man and the fair-skinned girl sitting face to face, he was momentarily dumbfounded!
