When Byron returned to Cora's ward, the cleaner had already tidied up the ward and replaced the things Gabe had smashed.
But even so, Byron could still tell Cora was in a terribly bad mood.
Her eyes were swollen from crying, and she was lying on the hospital bed like a doll without a soul.
Byron came to her side and took her hand to comfort her. "I'll explain it to your brother. Don't blame yourself. It's not your fault."
But Cora didn't look at him.
She knew Byron wouldn't agree to the divorce just by talking about it.
If she wanted a divorce, she must take action.
But Byron stubbornly painted her their bright future.
He said, "If Gabe can't accept it now, let him accept it slowly after the child is born.
"Your top priority now is to take care of your body and stay healthy. After you give birth, I will build a cruise ship named after the baby and take you around the world.
"I'm curious about whether the baby looks like you or me. I hope it looks like you and hope it will be a girl. In this way, watching her grow up will be like spending time with you so that I can make up for those years we couldn't be together."
The future he had painted was beautiful.
However, Cora closed her eyes, refusing to accept the information.
She was afraid overthinking those beautiful things would make her unable to bear to carry out her plan.
Byron talked a lot in Cora's ward. Later, it might be because Cora was tired of listening or crying. She fell asleep.
Byron ordered the bodyguards at the door to keep a close eye on Cora's floor. He planned to meet Gabe.
But at this time, Carter told him, "Archer just appeared near Mrs. Hansen's apartment. Our people had a direct confrontation with him. One was killed, and five were injured, but Archer escaped unscathed."
It was pretty bad news.
Archer was the highest-level killer among the mercenaries Lionel found.
