Chapter 285: I beg you, wake up.

Wayne Don remained silent, confronting Noah Bates with his silence. Eventually, the atmosphere in the hospital room dropped to freezing point. Wayne stood up, wiping his tears, "Take me home."

Noah asked him, "Where to?"

"I want to go home. I have to study tomorrow. Pick me up after school, and I'll come to see Mommy."

Wayne's voice trembled, but his steps were firm. "Mommy will definitely wake up. As long as I keep our home safe and everything as usual, she'll wake up and praise me..."

In the home he spoke of, is there a place for Noah Bates?

Wayne ordered a servant to take him down. Watching his slender shadow disappear at the end of his line of sight, Noah felt completely hollow, dazedly staring at the woman lying on the hospital bed.

Her pale face, delicate features, and bloodless lips – Noah remembered when Violet laughed, the whole world seemed to shimmer in her eyes. But now, she lay lifelessly before him, devoid of vitality.
