Ryan thought, ''Look at what I''ve done! If only I could just be a little more patient, and if I could just show her a bit more consideration...''


    "Mr. Hoffman, there''s no need to hurry. Take all the time you need." Yasmin reassured him gently. She was about to leave the room when Carrie suddenly hugged her tightly from behind. With tears in her eyes, Carrie pleaded, "Yasmin! Please don''t go! Don''t leave!"


    "Young Madam, don''t be afraid... It''s just Young Master Hoffman." Yasmin hurriedly reassured her.


    "Don''t leave... I beg you..."


    "Alright, I won''t leave. I''ll stay with you." Yasmin looked at Ryan, whose face was pale, feeling both bitter and distressed.


    With red eyes, Ryan kneeled before Carrie, intending to take her hand, but she evaded his touch.


    "I know that I was wrong. If I ever say anything harsh to you again, just vent your anger on me and bite me, okay?"


    Carrie bit her lip hard, blood oozing from her lips, but she didn''t utter a single word.


    "Whatever you want, just please don''t ignore me... Honey, please..."


    Ryan, who had frightened countless people, was now as down-to-earth as he could be in front of his beloved.


    From this perspective, he and Justin seemed quite alike.


    "You wanted to see your mom onest time, right? I''ll bring you there."


    As Ryan spoke, he choked up noticeably. "I''ll let you see your mom no matter how many times you want to go. Whatever you want to do in the future, I promise that I''ll apany you." "Ryan... I''m sorry...''N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.


    Carrie''s gentle, tearful apology made him feel overwhelming guilt. Without warning, Ryan embraced her tightly, as if he had found something precious that was once lost.


    He would never demand anything from her ever again. This torment was truly more unbearable than death itself.


    The big rock that fell from the sky sessfully gave Hunter a concussion, leaving him with eight stitches on his forehead.


    Hunter''s parents were devastated


    when they found out that their oldest son, who was once expected to do great things, had now be an outcast. The news hit them so hard that it caused Chelsea to have a heart attack, and she had to be taken to the hospital.


    Steven received the call from his father while he was at Yara Park. Upon hearing about his mother''s condition, he was filled with anxiety, preparing to go to the hospital to visit her.


    "Steve, let me apany you!" This


    time, Amelia showed no intention of backing down, gripping his hand tightly, unwilling to let go. "With so much chaos happening in your family it''s difficult for you to handle it all alone. Let me take care of you. Besides, your mother is ill can help care for her. I''m more attentive


    anyway."


    Steven felt grateful but still hesitated. "Amelia, thank you for your kindness... But my family mistreated you..."


    Amelia quickly pressed her


    fingertips against his lips, gently


    shaking her head with a warm smile. "As long as your heart is with me, as long as you love me, no matter what difficulties we face, I can handle them. I''m not afraid. Even an ugly daughter-inw will have to meet her parents-inw sooner orter, right?"


    Steven suddenly took a breath and pulled her into his arms, gently saying, "Who would dare to call you ugly? My Amelia, you''re as stunning as an angel."
