Chapter 369 It’s His Life
The next morning, as Bethan made her way past Hugh’s hospital room, she noticed two nurses cleaning inside.
Instantly, a frown marred her face.
Hugh’s situation was both grave and perilous. It boggled her mind why the Cavill family had arranged for his early discharge.
A few days after Calvin left the hospital, he reserved a table at a fancy restaurant and invited Bethan for a meal.
While passing by a shopping mall on her way, Bethan caught sight of an outdoor LED screen. There, Gwen stood beside Hugh, looking sleek in a business suit, calmly facing the media.
Hugh, in a sharp suit, appeared a bit weary but still captivating,
The Cavill family’s darling, who’d always been cosseted, was now standing up for Hugh and the family’s honor, fielding tough questions from reporters,
No wonder she was a finance whix, groomed by the Cavills. Bethan could detect Hugh’s influence in her.

After that, they went their separate ways.
Hugh vanished from Bethan’s life after his discharge.
Before long, September arrived.
Barry was off to college, and Bethan was gearing up for the first episode of a traditional medicine science-education program on TV.
Bethan was juggling multiple responsibilities.
She managed her department, spent three days a week at the outpatient clinic, and also found time for the TV show recordings.
Her career was on the upswing, and she was making new friends, living a fulfilling life.
Finally, the weekend came. Bethan decided to stay home with her parents, skipping the usual poker night with friends.
Late at night, Bethan was roused from sleep by her mother.
“Bethy, there are people from the Cavill family here,” she said.
Checking her phone, Bethan found that it was 12:40 a.m.

Ryan sat there silently, head down, a far cry from the cocky guy who’d come to stir trouble last time.
Fiona’s eyes lit up when she saw Bethan. Like a desperate woman grasping at straws, she grabbed Bethan’s hand, her own hands shaking.
Bethan could feel the panic and fear radiating from her.
Feeling sorry for her, Bethan said, “Fiona, take it easy. Just tell me what’s going on slowly.”
Fiona shook her head in disbelief. “Bethy, I know it’s crazy of us to show up at this hour, but we’re at our wits’ end,” she said, her voice cracking.
“Hugh’s been hiding his illness and traveling abroad for work. This morning, his sister found him spitting blood and almost. fainting. If Gwen hadn’t called, we’d still think he was getting better!”
Bending down, almost in a pleading posture, Fiona begged, “Bethy, he won’t listen to anyone. Please, talk some sense into him. He’ll kill himself if he keeps this up!”
Bethan guided Fiona to the sofa and sat her down.

Fiona stared at her, utterly at a loss and frustrated.
With a pleading look in her eyes, Fiona turned to Bethan’s parents, who stood in the living room, their faces grim.
As fellow parents, Vincent and Miranda were softened by
Fiona’s sobs.
Miranda said helplessly, “Mrs. Fiona Cavill, my daughter’s stance is also ours.”
Fiona, with red-rimmed eyes, shot a resentful look at her husband, Ryan.
Stepping into the middle of the living room, Ryan straightened his suit, then bent down to apologize to Bethan’s parents.
“We, the Cavill family, have wronged you. I sincerely apologize here,” he said.
Vincent exchanged a glance with Miranda. “Apologies aren’t necessary. Since my daughter isn’t willing, you’d better go back,” Vincent stated.
But Ryan didn’t leave.
He walked up to Bethan and declared, “If you can cheer my son

Standing before Ryan, Bethan replied impassively, “Mr. Ryan Cavill, I know your family is rich and powerful, but I don’t need it, and I can’t help you.”
With bloodshot eyes, Ryan suddenly tried to hug Bethan’s leg in front of everyone, trying to beg her.
Quick-witted, Bethan darted behind her parents.
Fiona, seeing her proud husband grovel, was in disbelief as she got up from the sofa.
Bethan’s parents were also stunned by Ryan’s abasement for his son.
Standing between her parents, Bethan eyed Ryan.
Once so arrogant and overbearing, now he was just a father desperate for his son.
It must have been a huge blow to his pride.
Turning to Bethan, Ryan, his eyes full of anxiety, pleaded, “It was all my fault before. I’ve apologized. For the sake of your long-standing friendship with Hugh, please encourage him to pull himself together.

Bethan looked at her dad, who then helped Ryan up.
“His fate has nothing to do with me. I really can’t help,” Bethan said calmly.
Then she turned and went back to her room, locking the door
behind her.
