They couldn’t imagine their lives without him…
After taking a deep breath, Hannah directly walked over to her father and sat next to him. She held his hand tightly. “Daddy, I’m truly sorry… There’s nothing I can do to help…”
However, her father shook his head. “Silly child. What are you saying? Why are you apologizing to me? This isn’t something anyone can control…”
Hannah didn’t say anything. Instead, she directly threw herself into her father's arms and hugged him tightly.
Her father’s hug was very warm.
She never wanted to let go.
She didn’t dare imagine how it would feel if she couldn’t hug her father again.
Mrs. Roland looked at them. It was heart-wrenching.
She didn’t dare to imagine how she’d survive with her children if her husband were gone.
She wondered if she’d ever get used to living without him.
If it was possible, she wished she could die in his place…
Hannah stayed in her father’s ward for a long time and only left very late in the evening.
Meanwhile, her mother stayed by her father’s side.
Upon getting home, Hannah directly wrote her letter of withdrawal from school.
After that, she took a shower and lied unhappily on her bed.
She’d had to face too many things she couldn’t accept today…
Firstly, her father was ill. She still didn’t know if he’d be able to survive.
Secondly, she had to quit school and say goodbye to Leon Batton forever…
The combination of these two things made her feel awful…
Hannah tossed and turned in bed. She couldn’t fall asleep no matter how hard she tried.
***
In the blink of an eye, it was Monday.
Hannah woke up very early in the morning.
