Chapter 411
Chapter 411 Saying Goodbye Donald fell silent for some time before revealing, “Because I’m Lord Campbell.”
Jennifer burst into giggles. She held Donald’s shoulder for support and responded, “I don’t believe you. Everyone wants to be a hero like Lord Campbell, but a hero like him only shows up once every few hundred years. You’re Donald, the man I’ve always loved.”
Donald’s heart skipped a beat as he glanced at Jennifer.
Their gazes met.
Jennifer gazed at him adoringly as her cheeks turned pink.
Reluctantly, Donald explained, “All right. I shall tell you the truth. My grandpa was a geomancy expert. Before the land reclamation project began, Kingsley hired him to check the geomancy.”
That Jennifer believed. “That sounds about right. Don’t try to curry favor with Wyvern King, though. Men like him are unpredictable, arrogant, and cruel. You’ll be at a disadvantage if you were to interact with him,” she reminded.
Donald was at a loss for words.
Do I even need to curry favor with Kingsley?
As Jennifer refused to believe that he was Lord Campbell, he wasn’t about to explain things to her.
A brief silence later, he revealed, “I might have to part ways with you soon.”
Jennifer’s entire being trembled as she gazed at Donald. Her face slowly drained of color.
“I don’t have much time left,” Donald said calmly. “I’ve contacted a medical institution and will undergo surgery before the New Year. There is a possibility I won’t get to leave the operating table alive.”
Donald couldn’t tell her that he was going to the newly built S7-Grade laboratory in Lord Campbell Mountain Villa to remove the Jadar Stone particles in his body through the artificial sun. Thus, he had no choice but to explain the process in a simple manner.
Tears escaped Jennifer’s eyes. “I’m sorry, Donald. I really am. If you can’t make it through the surgery, I’ll die alongside you.”
Donald shook his head slowly. “If I were to die, you must live well and marry a suitable man one day.”
“All right. It’s getting late, so you should leave. I’m getting sleepy,” Donald told her.
Shaking her head profusely, Jennifer grabbed his hand and rubbed it on her cheek. “No! I won’t leave. I want to be with you.”
Donald let out a sigh and caressed her soft cheek slowly.
Silence ensued.
