Chapter 139: 104 I’ve already given myself to you, what more do you want?_3

Some things are so suffocating that you can’t even drink the soup, and no intelligence works on a woman who resorts to irrational arguments.

The meal was evidently unpleasant, and after finishing, Luna Miller surprisingly had the butler go and pack her luggage.

"Charlotte, is Luna making things difficult for you?" Freya Morgon looked at her youngest daughter’s pale face, laden with troubles. She didn’t know what this daughter had gone through in the Hallow Family, or what she was hiding.

Ever since her two daughters were born, she aspired to treat them equally, but it seemed to be the most challenging thing in the world.

"Mommy, she has to leave." Charlotte Miller’s tone intensified, as she stood up and walked to the hall door, leaning against the door frame, looking at the courtyard she had lived in since childhood, confidently asserting, "She must go..."

This kind of situation might be what Atlas Hallow was best at, but how would she get him to help send Luna away?

This man hasn’t even called her once until now; what is he busy with?

Atlas Hallow wasn’t busy with anything; he simply watched doctors and nurses come and go in the intensive care unit, regularly cleaning wounds and changing dressings, remaining silent all the while.

Hailey Hill woke up from surgery and just stared wide-eyed at the white ceiling without saying a word, not even casting a glance at him, as though he didn’t exist.

Such abnormal behavior made Atlas Hallow a bit worried.

She lay there like a corpse, almost as if her breathing would vanish altogether.

"Her fever has subsided, and the wounds are well-treated; she can be discharged in a week." The doctor removed his gloves and briefed Atlas Hallow about Hailey Hill’s condition.

"Thank you..." Amidst the prolonged silence, these words of thanks seemed to awaken Hailey Hill; her hand trembled slightly, and then tears began to slide down her face, falling drop by drop.

Everyone left, and the high-end ward was filled with an undeniable, sorrowful atmosphere.

"I don’t blame you, Atlas. I simply feel uncomfortable inside. Crying a bit will be fine." Her voice was hoarse and pitiful, her whole being looking pale and weak. Upon hearing these words, Atlas Hallow’s heart trembled violently.

From the beginning until now, any misfortunes happening to Hailey Hill were related to him, yet every time she told him she didn’t blame him.

This refusal to blame him burdened him with a terrifying guilt, a feeling akin to waves crashing, almost drowning him.

Nothing is difficult in these circumstances; the scariest part is the emotional debt that can’t be repaid.

He’s not a scum or a beast. With these things happening to Hailey Hill, when she says she doesn’t blame him, can it truly be treated as though nothing ever happened?

Deep in his eyes, pain and regret intertwined; none of the events could be undone. Atlas Hallow walked to Hailey Hill’s side and softly said, "Rest well. Whatever you need, just tell me..."

"I don’t want anything. Just that you take care. Atlas, I’ve figured it out. I shouldn’t chase after unattainable things; it’s too exhausting..." Hailey Hill gazed at Atlas Hallow’s handsome face, reaching out with trembling hands. Yet as she was about to touch his cheek, she stopped.

"I feel so dirty, really dirty. I’m not even a woman anymore. I told them I’m no longer a woman, so why do they still treat me like this?" Finally unable to hold it in, she burst into tears, her frail shoulders trembling, as if she were about to stop breathing.

Atlas Hallow’s heart ached as if torn apart...

He reached out his arms to embrace Hailey Hill tightly, lowering his voice, "It’s not. Hailey, none of this is your fault."

Hailey Hill wanted to break free, but after failing to do so, she completely collapsed in his arms, crying out in despair, "Why not just let me die? I don’t even know why I have to live..."

Atlas Hallow held Hailey Hill tightly, allowing her to vent.

Until at last, weary from crying, she fell asleep. At this moment, Hailey Hill appeared several years older than usual, without the coverage of makeup, her skin showing tiny wrinkles.

Ultimately, it was he who drove Hailey Hill to this point. Although he never promised her anything initially, because Hailey Hill had youth and beauty, while he possessed endless wealth. But when his father had Hailey’s uterus and ovaries removed, everything truly changed.
