Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 708

Chapter 708 Stopped Breathing

Pierre stared at Selena in shock. Selena had a bad feeling about the look in his eyes. “What’s wrong?” “I understand. Take him to the hospital, and we’ll see if there’s a possibility…”

Pierre hung up the phone and pulled Selena into his embrace. “Your dad… They said he stopped breathing.”

“What?” Selena was shocked as well. Pierre had only kicked him once. Although Roland was quite advanced in age, his body was still strong and healthy, so he shouldn’t die from just a kick.

“When he fell, he hit the back of his head on the coffee table. You know our coffee table is made of marble, so…” Pierre explained. It was at this point where Selena realized that Roland probably couldn’t make it for real.

“I told them to take him to the hospital; he may be in a hemorrhagic shock. If they take him to the hospital in time, he may be able to survive.” Pierre hastily took Selena’s hands. “Selena, don’t worry.”

Selena forced a smile instead. “Worried about what? I’m worried that he’d kill me.” “Right, I almost forgot to ask you about that. Why did he do that?”

“Why? Why else? For his daughter! He wanted me to let Meredith go, and he said that our family ended up like this because of me. If it weren’t for me, Megan and Finneas would have still been together; Meredith would have been married to you and become Mrs. Fowler; and I would have been a millionaire. Our family would have been perfect.”

“Bullsh*t!” Pierre couldn’t help cursing. “That old man!”

Selena looked at Pierre. “To him, only Meredith and Megan are his daughters. Their wrongdoings are not their faults, but everything I do is wrong.”

Pierre took Selena in his arms, his heart aching for her. He was in real pain for her. He couldn’t imagine how she had survived all those years in the Yard Family. “You should stop thinking about it. It won’t happen anymore.”

“Yeah. He also said that if I died, this would all be over.” Selena laughed bitterly. “Am I tragic or what?”
