She Became Exactly What They Wished For novel Chapter 22

Chapter 22

“Let Mary come see me!” Lawrence exclaimed, his tone agitated.

The thought that all his heartfelt words had been spoken to Darian made his scalp tingle with embarrassment, and he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

“Sir, please calm down, be careful not to tear your wound…” the nurse reminded him.

But he couldn’t care less. He pulled out the IV directly, his tone resolute: “I want to see Maryann!”

“That’s enough.”

Maryann’s voice sounded as she walked in slowly, her tone cold and full of disdain. “Lawrence, how long are you going to keep wallowing in self- pity?”

Lawrence froze, her words echoing in his ears.

“I’m grateful that you saved me this time, but I also donated blood to you. I will remember this life-saving favor.”

“But aside from that, there is nothing else. My gratitude toward you is not love, just as your so-called guilt and regret for me cannot be called love either.”

“So, I hope you can see reality clearly. Don’t let your own obsession blind you. As the head of the Frye Group, are you really going to let yourself be ruined by this fixation?”

“If that’s the case, I will only look down on you, Lawrence.”

“So, let’s leave it at that. May we both be well and not disturb each other’s lives.”

With those words, Maryann turned around and left with long strides, not sparing him another glance.

“Mary…”

Lawrence used the last of his strength to try to chase after her, but he fell heavily to the ground, utterly disheveled.

And Maryann, from beginning to end, never looked back even once.

Tears gradually soaked the floor.

His thin shoulders trembled.

This time, it was truly over.

Outside the door, Darian stood waiting for her, his gaze gentle as he reached out his hand.

Maryann smiled, took his hand, and intertwined her fingers with his.

The two figures leaned into each other walking slowly toward the rising morning light.

A year later, Lawrence reappeared on the headlines of domestic financial reports.

The once high-spirited man had shed all superficiality, speaking calmly and confidently in front of the cameras.

When asked what his greatest regret was.

He paused for a moment, a trace of sadness flashing in his eyes.
