Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 535

Half an hour later, the doctor managed to stop the bleeding on Stefan's body.
"Your Majesty, there is nothing serious for the time being, but he has lost too much blood and needs rest."
King Ducasse looked at the sleeping man on the bed and nodded.
Soon the doctor left, leaving only King Ducasse and Martha in the room.
After hearing from the doctor that Stefan was fine, Martha heave a sigh of relief.
She turned to King Ducasse, who stared at Stefan motionlessly.
After a long time, she heard King Ducasse murmuring in a low voice, "He's not like me at all..."
Martha was startled, and understood what he was talking about.
"Catherine is an oriental, and Stefan's father is also an oriental, so naturally Stefan doesn't look like you."
King Ducasse's father was from Z Country, and the color of his eyes showed the difference.
Martha understood that King Ducasse couldn't accept the fact that Stefan was his half-brother.
Although she also didn't want to accept it, it was the truth.
"What are you going to do with Catherine?"
At the moment he heard his mother's name, King Ducasse's heart twisted with pain.
"What do you want me to do?"
King Ducasse looked at Martha with a dullness in his eyes, so evident.
That was his biological mother, he knew everyone was waiting for him to give Catherine an execution.
She committed the heinous crime of murdering the late king and deserved death.
What else could he do?
Suddenly, King Ducasse smiled wryly, "I know no one wants her dead more than you do..."
Martha lowered her eyes, but didn't respond.
Catherine admitted she had killed Elsie. Considering her other crimes, she indeed deserved death.
But Martha somehow felt Horadus' betrayal of Catherine was too sudden and there seemed to be more to it.
Horadus, however, had died. And all the clues pointed to Catherine. She was the heinous culprit without a doubt.
Only when King Ducasse personally ordered her to be executed would everything come to an end and the dust settle.
"You are the king of Z Country, representing the entire country, but I can also understand your feelings as a son."
As Martha said, she looked at Stefan on the bed again.
Catherine's true face had been exposed. If she insisted on wanting Catherine dead, she would be no different from Catherine?
Besides, Catherine was Stefan's biological mother.
The revenge was over, and Martha just wanted to get out of here and go back to her father and child.
"Martha, do you hate me?"
Hearing this, Martha looked up at King Ducasse, chuckled and shook her head, "Why should I? It's only your mother's fault. I don't hate Stefan either. We're just poor people being played by fate. I don't want to become like Catherine, or transfer my hatred onto innocent people."
She finally got the happiness, and she didn't want to miss it again because of her obsessive idea.
"King Ducasse, do what you think is right, whatever you decide now, I respect you."
King Ducasse pursed his lips lightly; he knew that Martha gave up hatred and chose forgiveness.
Even if she could do it, how about anyone else?
...
Stefan woke up, and it was already night.
Under the dim light, there was only a graceful figure standing by his bed.
He slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was an unfamiliar environment. The pain in his body hit him, and he gasped.
Then he felt a warm hand on his arm...
He turned his head and saw Martha, who was leaning against the edge of the bed, sleeping lightly.
She had been guarding him, looking haggard, Stefan frowned, enduring the pain of the wound, slowly stretched out his hand, and gently stroked her eyebrows and eyes with his warm fingertips.
His thin lips moved as he spoke in a hoarse and deep voice, "Martha..."
When Martha heard it, she opened her eyes dazedly, meeting Stefan's deep-set eyes.
