Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 271

Chapter 271 Having No Daddy Anymore

Martha nodded, staring at Stefan on the bed. No matter when he woke up, she would wait for him.

After acting for a while, Giana and Amanda left the hospital together.

Martha and Bianca followed the nurse to transfer Stefan to a VIP general ward. They didn't return to Doyle Manor until everything was settled.

On the way, Bianca checked on Martha's pale face, worried about her.

She wasn't sure what Martha's feelings for Stefan before. Now, she could confirm that Martha still loved him.

So, Bianca also understood how upset Martha was.

With a thought, she took Martha's hand and repeated, "He'll definitely wake up."

Martha nodded at her in response but didn't utter a word.

She also wished Stefan could wake up. Yet it was challenging for a vegetable to become conscious.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the Doyle Manor. Entering the living room, they saw Maxwell waiting for them on the couch.

He heard their voices, looked over, and asked worriedly, "How's he doing?"

Martha looked at him sadly and glanced around the living room. "Where's Jimmy?" she asked.

"In his room." Maxwell noticed her pale face, feeling sorry for her.

Martha nodded and whispered to him about the diagnosis. "The doctor said he'd become a vegetable. It's hard to predict when he'll wake up."

Maxwell, sitting on the sofa, was taken aback. He pursed his lips and said nothing.

Bianca patted her shoulder and said, "Martha, why don't you rest? Stop thinking too much. He'll be well."

"OK," Martha replied, walking towards the couch.

Bianca heaved a sigh and said in a tiring tone, "Let me check on Jimmy."

"Bianca, let's hide this matter from him for the time being," Martha reminded her, looking exhausted. She knew Bianca wanted to leave a private space for her and Maxwell. Yet Jimmy was too young. She was unwilling to upset him.

Bianca nodded in agreement and answered, "I know, Martha." Then she went towards Jimmy's room.

After she left, Maxwell and Martha were alone in the living room. After a moment of silence, Maxwell said, "Hollie was executed yesterday."

He learned what had happened in the past weeks and had no comment on what Hollie had done. He raised Hollie for 20 years, but she almost killed Martha.

Nodding, Martha looked at him. "Dad, are you upset?"

Maxwell shook his head and muttered, "She asked for it."

He was indeed upset. After all, he had taken Hollie as his younger daughter for 20 years.

Yet Hollie had committed crimes and should pay the price.

Leaning against the sofa, Martha rubbed her temples to ease her intense migraine. "Dad, you must be upset. However, she was a grownup and should reap the consequences for what she had done."

Maxwell nodded but didn't speak.
