Darwin refused to believe the crap the doctor just told him. He became wild and frantic and the doctor had to leave him for a second to get Luther.Darwin struggled hard to get on his feet, clenching his teeth bravely to prevent him from crying out in pain and attracting the attention of anyone at all. He would rather die than let anyone see him defeated.Darwin tried and tried, but the pain was too much to bear, and his legs just wouldn’t move an inch because his waist was completely numb.“Fuck!” Darwin exclaimed in frustration.It was not until he almost fell off the bed that he decided to stop struggling. It would be worse for anyone to find him on the floor, so Darwin decided that he would simply wait for Luther to show up and have him take him out of here. Darwin would not be defeated!His heart was racing and beating really fast, because a part of him kept reminding him about what the doctor said, but because Darwin could never imagine being in that position, he refused to take

On their way to Bowman’s mansion, as they sat at the back of the car, Laxus felt as though his tongue had been tied.He was still very embarrassed with his reaction about Nessy’s whereabouts. He had acted like a teenager who was scared that his mother had abandoned him, and worse, his voice had been frantic and loud enough that Nessy had heard him. Even though Nessy hadn’t said anything about it or reacted to it, Laxus had felt completely flushed. Fortunately for him, Nessy had simply accepted to go with him to Bowman’s, abandoning the breakfast that she had prepared for the both of them.“I am sorry that we couldn’t have the breakfast that you took time making,” Laxus eventually managed to break the ice. “Bowman sounded urgent, and if we had stayed back to eat, we would have been late. Nevertheless, we would have the next breakfast together,” Laxus promised.Now, he didn’t know if Nessy was cold because he didn’t eat what she had prepared or if she was still on about last night.“It’

Laxus thought that his heart would explode with emotions with the way he was feeling deep inside, so much so that he simply sat on their bed when they arrived home later that evening.After the lawyer had read the will, he had handed the official keys to the mansion to Laxus and congratulated him on the inheritance. The small box would also have been given to Laxus, but they all knew that it was missing. All attempts to get necessary information about his upbringing and why his grandmother was particular about not wanting Darwin anywhere near the mansion had been impossible.The lawyer had left after his mission was accomplished, and Laxus had had to sit through a dinner party that he wasn’t really in the mood for. However, Nessy was such a good guest that Laxus’s mood did not ruin the purpose for the dinner.“I should have known that including a celebratory dinner alongside with the will reading would not work well, but I guess I didn’t put things into consideration much,” Bowman had

Linnie arrived at the hospital just in time for Darwin to receive visitors. Nevertheless, no one would have been able to stop her from seeing him anyway.This was a golden opportunity that had fallen into Linnie’s laps, and she would not take it for granted.Before going over to Darwin’s ward, she visited his doctor first. Linnie was smart enough to know that Darwin’s condition could have worsened or gotten better, so she needed to know before facing him. However, she sincerely hoped that it had gotten worse.Her knee was still hurting, causing her to limp, but Linnie did not care about that. As long as she could walk around with it with less pain, she could manage.“His condition is not going to get better,” the doctor told Linnie who pretended to be the most caring and loving and concerned daughter-in-law in the universe. “He might want to try other doctors abroad, which I would even suggest, but he is going to get the same result,” he added.“So he is never going to walk on his fee

Luther paced restlessly in Darwin’s ward with his phone in his hand and the blog news on his screen while Darwin fumed on his bed uncontrollably.Darwin was in severe pain as a result of his attempt to rise when he read the news, but he did not give a fuck about the news. If the pains would make him get back on his feet, he would gladly endure them, but now, he was not just suffering from pains, he was angered in his spirit.Luther had hurried to his father’s ward when he also got wind of the news.“You are nothing short of a failure and disappointment to me,” Darwin said through clenched teeth.As he looked at his son, Luther, he wanted to punish him gravely. Darwin had done everything possible to turn Luther into the son he wanted to be, but none of them worked, and now, as he glared at Luther, he felt as though he hated his own son.“Just look at the mess you have caused us!” Darwin barked some more.His words stung Luther deeply, and he could not find the guts to even face his fat
