Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267 Farewell 

That day, I talked to Leonard about a lot of stuff. I knew he couldn’t hear me, but I had to say it out loud. I started the tale with how I won his heart at college. Then, I told him how I secretly helped him secure a job. I also told him that I got cancer after I went overseas. 

On top 

of that, I talked about our baby, and how it felt to have a baby in my belly. I might not have told Leonard about it when he was awake. At this moment, however, I have an urge to tell him about everything. 

I finally finished telling Leonard about everything I wanted to say when dawn approached, but he still hadn’t woken up. I knew it. The movie plots were nothing but lies. 

People in a deep state of unconsciousness couldn’t hear anything. It didn’t matter what I told him. There was nothing I could say to rile him up. 

I looked at him and saw that his expression was the same as yesterday. All of a sudden, I let out a sigh of relief. I said everything I had to. So, he couldn’t blame me in the future. 

1 left the ward with a blank expression. It just so happened that I ran into Caleb, who came here early in the morning. There were dark circles beneath his eyes. It seemed like he didn’t sleep for the entire night as well. 

“Have you been here the whole night, Eva?” 

“Yeah. I dropped by to check on him.” I wasn’t that energetic, either, but I still added, “I won’t come here anymore.” 

I said my goodbyes to Leonard. There was no point for me to be here anymore. 

Caleb looked at me. It seemed like he had something to say, but he bit his tongue. Then, he glanced at the bodyguards standing next to us and walked over to my side eventually. He whispered, “Why don’t I take you back to your ward?” 

I noticed Caleb had something to tell me, and I nodded. Once we were back to my ward, Caleb was no longer happy and carefree as he usually was. Instead, he begged me with a sour face. 

“Please, Eva. Come back to Harmon Group. The company is in shambles. Luca has seemingly gone crazy. He didn’t care about getting into more projects, and he changed clients at the last minute. The design department is constantly working overtime. 

“I honestly can get a handle on things if you don’t come back, Eva. Please.” It looked like things hadn’t been good for Harmon Group. Caleb’s face was a little pale, and his beard was unshaven, giving him a somewhat disheveled look. 

I gave Caleb a troubled look. “Amelia is pregnant, Caleb.” 

“Huh?” Caleb looked at me with a surprised expression. After more than ten seconds passed, he finally lowered his head in dejection. 

“Amelia wasn’t like this back when we were at college. How did she come to be like this?” 

In fact, Amelia had never been like this when she was in the country. I also have no idea what came over her. Perhaps one’s mind would become empty when one was in love. Amelia could’ve gone out of her mind in the name of love. 

Caleb and I didn’t say anything for more than ten minutes. Eventually, he raised his head and looked at me. “Can you pump the brakes on the divorce, then? If you go through with it, Harmon Group will never be the same anymore.” 

I knew what Caleb meant. If I divorced Leonard, Mr. Harmon Senior would take away Leonard’s shares. As of now, I was still his wife, and I retained the right to control his shares and properties. If Mr. Harmon Senior actually supported Luca, then Leonard would be left with nothing. 

With that said, what could I do?
