Chapter 175: Things Would Be Worse if He Doesn’t Wake Up
Zachary was distressed.
Finn even knew all of that.
However, Zachary, her husband, was kept in the dark.
"She didn’t tell you, because she knew that you would be sad!
"You once said that you’d never live alone without her, and she gave up therapy. She would rather get a divorce than make you upset!
"Look at you!
"Today is her farewell party and her last award. On such an important day, you are not on her side; instead, you are with another woman!"
Finn had never thought that Zachary wouldn’t accompany Yvonne.
If Finn had known it, he would have come with Yvonne, though she wasn’t his wife!
"You..."
Zachary froze.
Finn’s words hurt Zachary deeply.
Zachary was overwhelmed by remorse.
<No wonder, she wanted to live alone.
Without any reasons, she proposed to break up.
No wonder I failed to get her medical reports and was told that the doctor in charge had left. I didn’t find any information about her conditions.
She told Finn that day on the phone that there weren’t many days left.
...
No wonder, she sang the "Vallisneria".>
He leaned against the wall.
Several times he’d wondered if she had some secrets. He was so close to the truth, but he just wasn’t attentive enough. Instead, he was controlled by his emotions!
He didn’t know what happened in the hallway. His mind went blank.
He was tortured by the remorse.
Zachary stood straight up like a statue.
Finally, the door of the resuscitation room was opened.
The cardiopulmonary resuscitation ended.
The doctor came out and saw Zachary.
"I’m sorry. We’ve tried our best.
"Mr. Leinster, I’m sorry for your loss."
Sorry for your loss!
Zachary waited there all night. His voice was hoarse, and his thoughts were chaotic.
Suddenly, he didn’t know the meaning of "sorry for your loss".
"What do you mean?"
The doctor shook head.
Though the doctor had seen many scenes like this, it was his first time to treat the young patient like Yvonne.
"Miss Taylor had gone through a lot.
"Tonight she worked overload. Her internal organs hemorrhaged. We failed to save her..."
In short, she was dead.
She died at the age of twenty.
The death of Yvonne shocked the nation.
Her tens of millions of fans couldn’t take the news.
That night, millions of people were distressed to hear that she died.
Yvonne’s fans offered condolence on Twitter.
Probably God wanted to enjoy Yvonne’s beautiful voice as well, so she was taken away.
This time, no matter how hard they screamed, Yvonne would never reply comments.
Zachary fell into a coma after learning of her death.
He had been in a coma for seven days.
The Leinster Group was in chaos. Finally, Jack had to return from Abari to manage the company.
The doctor said that Zachary was physically healthy, but he refused to wake up.
Because he couldn’t accept the cruel truth.
...
Zachary had a dream.
In that dream, he was a lonely adult.
Although he was the CEO of a world-class multinational corporation and possessed large fortune, he led a tedious life.
As for love, it was something beyond his reach.
One day, when he was walking past his own mall, he met a girl.
The girl was wearing high-waisted jeans and large earrings.
She had her back to him and chose a men’s tie. When she turned back and saw him, she was startled.
Then, she dropped the tie and threw herself into his arms...
Zachary fell in love with a girl in his dream.
In the dream, they spent every day together and rarely fought.
Then, she married him and became Mrs. Leinster.
They also had adorable twins. The girl was Angela and the boy was Daniel.
...
He was no longer the lonely and numb Mr. Leinster.
She was the first person to make him feel relaxed since his mother died.
...
"Mr. Leinster."
The man who spoke was a doctor.
"Things would be worse if he doesn’t wake up today.
"There are several types of coma. If the coma lasts for a long time, the patient would be hard to recover. What’s worse, permanent brain dysfunction could occur sometimes."
In other words, if Zachary didn’t wake up, the probability of recovery would be less.
Even if he woke up, he wouldn’t be able to take care of himself on his own.
Jack and Simon had rushed over from all over the world after learning Zachary’s coma.
Hearing the doctor’s words, they fell silent.
Jack used to be a hale and hearty businessman, but now he actually looked like a languorous old man.
Jack had experienced the loss of his wife, as well as the estrangement and betrayal of his two sons.
After Zachary was in charge, their relationship became even worse.
The father and son, were secretly at war all the time.
But no matter how fierce their competition was, Zachary was his son.
His son might lose his life at such a young age.
Jack looked soberly at Zachary for a long time, and said hoarsely, "Isn’t there any other way?"
"This.... Currently, there is no particularly effective medical treatment for this
condition."
Doctors did their best.
"There is, however, a special method, but..."
"What?" Simon asked urgently.
The doctor frowned and said, "According to some medical experiments, emotional stimulus could effectively accelerate the recovery of the patient’s subconsciousness. For example, you can ask someone important to the patient to talk to him every day, which is conducive to his recovery. But..."
They all knew that the most important person was Yvonne.
But now she was dead.
No one could wake up Zachary anymore.
Jack gave up in despair...
Just then, Simon suddenly thought of something and said excitedly, "I have an idea!"
...
When Finn Levin arrived at the hospital, both Jack Leinster and Simon Leinster were standing in the corridor waiting for him.
He walked over and gave Jack Leinster a polite nod.
"Uncle Leinster."
Jack Leinster looked gloomy and shook Finn Levin’s hand, "Finn, I’m counting on you this time."
"I’ll try."
After saying that, Finn Levin pursed his lips and entered the ward.
...
In the ward, the sun was shining warmly.
Zachary was taken good care when he was in a coma.
Everything in the room was in order.
Only the man on the bed, silent and haggard, didn’t looked spirited and vigorous as usual.
Finn Levin walked over and sat down.
It was quiet for a long time before he sighed and started talking.
"I’m actually pretty depleted these days.
"Simon Leinster said you were not happy about Yvonne telling me about her condition but keeping it from you, so he asked me to come over and have a talk with you.
"But I know it well that I can never be like you after all."
Finn Levin was also very sad after Yvonne’s death. However, he couldn’t choose to run away from it because he wasn’t even qualified for that.
And he sighed.
"My dad always had high expectations of me.
"He’s been on his own all these years, and I know it wasn’t easy for him to raise me on his own, so I can’t let him down. No matter what happens, I have to put the company and my career first.
"You, at least, have the right to grieve for her, but I,
"Had to pretend like nothing was wrong. And I go to meetings, go to work, and come home alone with a long night waiting for me..."
Finn Levin fell into silent.
He never told anyone else about this, because there was no one to talk to.
Now it was only because Zachary was still in a coma that he had the rare opportunity to pour out.
"In those last days, I asked her if she wanted to come with me, so that you could give up. And I said I wouldn’t do anything to her, but do you know what she said?
"She said that
"She didn’t want to hurt you with another man even if you two break up.
"Tomorrow afternoon is her farewell ceremony.
"You missed it at the last Grammy Awards. After tomorrow, she’s really gone,
"Are you going to miss it again?"
Zachary did wake up that night.
Jack Leinster and Simon Leinster were overjoyed.
They thought that what Finn Levin had said to him made this happen, although they didn’t know exactly what that was about.
But when they went to visit Zachary, they found that he had left!
Zachary first contacted different secretaries and assistants.
Those assistants were all shocked when they heard his voice. Was this man still human? It was quite astonishing that he had just woken up and yet he started working as if nothing was wrong.
After everything was set, Zachary called Mr. King.
"Tomorrow afternoon, it was supposed to be the Taylor Family in charge?"
"Uh... Yes."
Mr. King didn’t dare to say much.
He was afraid that Zachary would get emotional and pass out again.
"Give me Frank Taylor’s number. I want to take charge personally." After saying that, he hung up the phone.
The next day, Yvonne’s national-fan farewell ceremony.
The black-and-white video of her was played on the huge square canopy.
It recorded the her every step from the first time on the stage to finally turning into the unbeatable diva.
It ended with the song she sang at the Grammy Awards, "Vallisneria".
The moving rhythm spread to every corner of the square.
The square was filled with tens of thousands of people who came to bid her farewell.
Some of them were local to Hiltonan, and some have also come from all over the globe.
It was gloomy and rainy. The crowd was all sobbing.
Under a huge canopy, a man in a black suit calmly presided over the ceremony.
The only love of his life, he would come himself to bid farewell.
