"Miss Kyle, Young Master Kyle left a letter behind, and then he left." Karen Joy rushed to the hospital early in the morning. When she arrived, the doctor passed a handwritten letter to her.
"What did you just say?" Karen Joy couldn't believe it. She rushed into the ward right after hearing the doctor's words, and sure enough, the ward was empty.
"Brother..." She shouted loudly and walked around the ward anxiously, but she couldn't find Jayden anywhere. Jayden, who had been lying in the hospital bed for three weeks, was gone.
How could a critically injured patient suddenly disappear?
"Blake, look at the surveillance cameras and see if something happened to him. No matter who took him away, I must save him."
Perhaps the news of Jayden's disappearance was too shocking, so Karen Joy forgot that she was still holding the letter that the doctor had given her. Then she instinctively thought that Jayden had been kidnapped.
"Miss, Young Master Kyle was not taken away. He left voluntarily." Blake pointed to the letter in Karen Joy's hand, "That is the letter he left for you. Open it up and have a look."
"He left voluntarily? Why?" In her anxious daze, Karen Joy slowly opened the letter the doctor passed to her. When she tore open the envelope, familiar handwriting came into her sight.
"Karen, by the time you read this letter, I would have gone. As for where I am going, I don't know either. The world is humongous, and I can settle down anywhere. I think I should be able to find a place to settle down soon, and I hope you wouldn't worry about me."
"I'm not going to tell you where I will go, but I want to tell you this. I hope you can be happy forever. Like the bright sun, you will continue to radiate warmth to the people around you."
As she read the letter, Karen Joy's tears were rolling down her face like a flood. She could barely continue to read the rest of the letter.
Brother Lionel was gone, and now, her brother left her behind. Both of them were escaping to avoid her. What had she done wrong?
What was her mistake? If she hurt them, they could just tell her so that she could change her ways. However, but the two of them didn't tell her anything at all and just disappeared quietly.
In the letter, Jayden hoped she would continue to radiate warmth to the people around her. But did he know that she wanted to spread some of her warmth to him too?
She wanted to let him know that he would be a part of their family forever, that he, Jayden Elias Kyle, was her, Karen Joy Kyle's, brother. But he didn't give her the chance and just disappeared.
"Miss, you..." Looking at Karen Joy's trembling hand as she was holding the letter, Blake tried to check if she was alright.
"I'm fine." Karen Joy bit her lip, then she raised her hand and wiped away her tears. She needed to continue reading the rest of the letter.
Jayden also wrote in the letter, "When I was eleven years old, it was your words that allowed them to keep me with the Kyle family, and from that day on, I was no longer an orphan. All these years, in order to fit in with this family, I have been working hard."
"I know that after Mom and Dad took me in as their son, they loved me like their own. They never treated me like an outsider. But I also wanted to prove myself. I didn't want to embarrass them. I didn't want to hear others say that the adopted son of the Kyle family is not so good. And I am not naturally smart, so I need to put in more effort."
Jayden would always say that he was not smart enough, but how could a foolish person work as hard as he did?
How could a foolish person rank first at the examinations every semester?
How could a foolish person manage so many companies under Rovio so well?
