Heaven Domain (Iwan Cliff) novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353 Three Days Part II

Half an hour later, Iwan and Jayna arrived a the airport where a private jet was waiting. After they boarded, the jet flew to Pasoland. At the same time, Luis Brown and Skyler Walz who had returned to Cleveque were flying to the same terminal.

On the jet, Jayna was sitting beside Iwan and sensed Iwan's emotional rush again. She was quite familiar with his personality. Once deciding, he would have something done as fast as he could.

"Honey, are you worried about something?" Jayna asked Iwan and put her hands on Iwan's hands.

Iwan froze and then forced a smile, "No, I'm not. I'm okay, one hundred percent."

"I got it." she didn't further the question seeing him not intend to say the truth. She planned to ask him to have fun with Emily who wouldn't go to school the next day and then let him do his business.

Then, both of them didn't speak anymore. The jet was so fast that it only took an hour or so to arrive at the airport of Pasoland. After getting off the board and waiting for ten minutes at the airport, they had Luis Brown and Skyler Walz join them.

Luis Brown's dark face was an obvious clue that he had just had the news about William Brown. William was basically a stranger to Jayna but still Luis' father with more or less love. Over the years, Luis didn't feel his father was kind to him though, he had been raised by the old man.

Luis' red eyes showed a hint of anxiety, but when he saw Iwan and Jayna, he hid it with a bright look. With some concern in his voice, he called, "Iwan, Jayna."

Iwan could tell Luis was worried even if he didn't say anything, so he nodded, "Luis, I'm sorry for your loss. We're going there now."

Hearing that, Luis couldn't hide the anxiety anymore. He opened his mouth but his voice came moments later, "Iwan, is there truly no other way? You can't save him with your power?"

After a while of silence, Iwan exhaled a long breath and seriously replied, "I'm sorry, I can't save him. He's too old and frail."

"I see." Luis nodded with no words. Skyler Walz next to Luis, who was a woman with traditional thinking, after all, didn't say anything, either when knowing William was about to die soon. Her face also darkened, for it was quite a short time for her after three months ago they left Pasoland City.

Three months ago, before they left the city, William was hale enough.

"Dad, I'm sorry," Jayna said with remorse in her eyes, and the latter gave her a nod as his reply.

Skyler looked at Jayna and said, "Jayna, you don't need to worry about your father. Stay with Iwan and take care of him since he has so many things to do now."

"I get it." Jayna nodded and didn't say more words.

At the moment, Dawson Gill led his fleet of luxury cars and a hundred of his best guards here. Iwan nodded at him and got in one of the cars.

"Where is William Brown now?" Iwan asked Dawson Gill after getting in.

Dawson Gill replied in respect, "He's in a mansion in the suburb. Boss, I've sent the best medical staff and resources in the city there, but..."

Dawson Gill didn't finish the sentence, not only because William Brown was too old to be saved, but because the old man had no will to live anymore. William had nothing to linger on in his life. Since the day his family was broke, he had no spirit to fight. Once a man loses his spirit, he will have nothing to support him for the rest of his life.

"I see." Iwan nodded and didn't say more words.

It only took the car forty minutes to take Iwan and his family to the suburb of the Pasoland, where a mansion full of serenity stood.

When they stepped into the front yard of the mansion, they saw William Brown, with a green coat draped over his shoulders and his withered face accentuating his sparse grey hair, stooping down and watering flowers.

When William saw Iwan, Jayna, Lius, and Skyler, he quivered, with an unspoken emotion flashing upon his eyes.

At the time he was dying, of his three sons, Wilson, Warren, and Luis, Luis, the one he had given the least love to, came back to visit him and stay with him on the last journey. Everything around him was arranged by Iwan, William's son-in-law, including the best medical resources and living standards. As long as William had the will, after several tough rounds of chemo he would have the chance to live one or two years longer. But he chose to die over to live, giving up the treatment and medicines.

William wanted to walk on the earth, breathe the fresh air of the world, and view some landscapes in the last days of his life instead of lying on a ward bed.

"Father!" Luis called, with his eyes reddening. This call elicited tears from the two men.

Shuddering, William said to Luis, "Luis, my son, I'm sorry. I've wronged you, and I'm a burden to you now."

Luis shook his head in sorrow and walked to Willaim to catch his hands and said, "Father, I, with Skyler, will stay with you these days until..."

Regretful, William looked at Skyler, "Skyler, our family has been wronging you all these years. I'm sorry. I can only repay you in the afterlife."

Skyler knew what William meant. These years, she had been bullied in this family and received nothing, but she wouldn't complain since William was dying right in front of her. She shook her head and said, "Stop it, William. I'll take care of you with Luis. Name any dishes you want to eat and I'll cook it for you."

An opaque tear streamed down William's cheeks, and then he looked at Iwan, "Thank you, Iwan, for everything you've done for me."

Iwan looked into William's eyes and asked, "Don't you hate me? Even though I didn't ask anyone to do it, your family going broke did have something to do with me. Don't you hate me at all?"

William shook his head with laughter, "Hate you? No. When death is at your doormat, you'll review things clearly. Our family went broke because of ourselves, our domineering and calculating brood. We lost our original purpose, which was the cause of our ruins. It was just a matter of time. But I don't see any bad, because Luis has a family being better and better."

"Okay." Iwan nodded and didn't say more words. He walked aside to make a way for Jayna to talk with William. Jayna said she would bring Emily to pay a visit to him, making William very touched.
