Love's Redemption

Redmption 335



Chapter 335

"Maddie, you're really clingy." Ellie's comment made me a bit embarrassed. But she then added playfully," But I really like it."

"Kid, you're so annoying," I teased, giving her a mock scolding. She burst into giggles.

I stepped out of the ward and glanced down the corridor. It was empty.

Since Ellie mentioned that Brandon was taking a call, he had to have gone somewhere less crowded. After a moment of thought, I headed toward the As I approached, I heard Brandon's voice.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

"The car repair shop is gone, but the mechanics should still be around. Find a way

to track them down... Of course, it's necessary. I need to clear things up with Madeline and clear my father's name."

My heart tightened slightly upon hearing this.

Over the past few days, I had been debating whether to investigate the brake issue from the accident further. But it seemed that he was already doing

As soon as he finished the call, I was about to approach him when his phone rang again, so I stopped.

The door to the emergency stairs was slightly ajar. I saw Brandon holding a cigarette between his fingers as he answered the phone, "You're back... Yes, we came together... What? Things are stalled without us?

“I know. There's no need for you to come. It's already suspicious enough... It won't delay anything. I'm still working on the code..."

I was very familiar with what he was saying. It was related to the company's matters. So, was the person on the phone Xander?

The way Brandon spoke was exactly how Xander's boss would.

The wealthy man from the Howell family...

It seemed... that I had been deceived.

But he had assured me that he wouldn't lie.

Could there be something that he was keeping from me?

Brandon finished his call and found me on the other side of the hospital corridor. He stood beside me and asked quietly, "What are you doing here?"

"I was looking for you but couldn't find you," I lied.

"I was on the phone." Brandon studied my face. "How is Zack?"

"He has lung cancer." The words came out heavy and somber from my mouth.

I knew all too well what this disease meant. No amount of money could change it.

Brandon seemed to understand my feelings and gently embraced me. "Medical advancements have come a long way. There might still be hope. Even though cancer is still largely incurable, there are different types and stages." Content belongs

I leaned on his shoulder. "I'm terrified of losing people. It seems like I'm constantly facing loss."

"That's how life is-losing and gaining." He gently stroked my hair.

"Brandon, I now understand why you've been so hesitant about Ellie's surgery. I..." I hesitated. "I'm also feeling regret and fear."

I didn't specify what I was afraid of, but he understood.

He kissed the side of my head. "It's going to be okay. She's such a wonderful person, and we love her so much. She will be alright."

I hoped for the best and prayed in my heart silently.

While Brandon and I were holding each other, a soft cough came from a short distance away. I slightly opened my eyes and saw Lisa. She gave me a sly look and said, "Mr. Howell, Mr. Marrow is looking for you.'

Brandon released me, but I held onto his hand tightly. Keith's call likely meant discussions about the surgery. Although I didn't speak, he understood my concern. He gave me a reassuring look before leaving.

Lisa approached, and I expected her to tease me, but instead, she said, "Ellie's surgery might not be possible."
