Chapter 1539: Chapter 1539: The Depth of Love
The next day, when Purple Summers came to see Cherry, she was already awake and was lying on the bed crying softly.
Gavin Graves sat beside her, his face cold and looking extremely grim.
“What happened?” Purple Summers walked in, puzzled.
Cherry heard Purple Summers’ voice, opened her tear-filled eyes, and cried sorrowfully, “Purple Summers! My hand is gone!”
Purple Summers: “…”
You cut it off yourself, did you forget?
Purple Summers somewhat understood Gavin Graves’ feelings at the moment… The deeper the love, the stricter the reproach.
Even seeing Cherry in this tearful state, she couldn’t help but want to blame her, even though she knew it was easy to criticize in hindsight, she couldn’t help it!
“Look at you, running off to sell yourself for what? If you hadn’t gotten on that ship with Mr. Ghost Hayes, you wouldn’t have encountered this situation, and if you hadn’t encountered it, you wouldn’t have lost a hand!”
Saying this, Purple Summers looked at Gavin Graves: “Any news on Mr. Ghost Hayes?”
Gavin Graves shook his head with a stern face.
He had already disappeared without a trace.
Cherry sat on the bed crying even harder: “It’s because Gavin Graves didn’t want me, that’s why I went to the auction! And because you didn’t let me commit murder, that’s why I spared that cousin’s life! Now I’ve lost my hand, and you both still blame me!”
Gavin Graves: “…”
Purple Summers: “…”
They’re really afraid of her…
“Alright, stop crying.” Purple Summers had a headache, really couldn’t understand how Gavin Graves usually endured this.
She placed the insulated lunch box on the table and opened it layer by layer, reminding Cherry like a mother: “The doctor said you shouldn’t eat spicy food for some time, you need to supplement with high-protein foods, I’ve asked the kitchen to make a little of everything, don’t be picky, try to eat a balanced diet…”
Cherry leaned back, half her body sinking into the big pillow, her tears stopped, but her eyes were still wet.
“My hand hurts so much, I can’t eat.” she sobbed.
Purple Summers was exasperated: “Isn’t your right hand perfectly fine!”
Cherry turned her face to the pillow, saying sadly, “But when I use my right hand, I think of my left hand, and it hurts so much.”
Gavin Graves sighed, walked around the bed to pick up the bowl, and said, “I’ll feed her.”
Purple Summers had no objections.
Actually, it’s not that she doesn’t want to be good to Cherry, it’s just that Cherry went too far this time, even knowing it was to save people, she couldn’t help being angry at her for harming her own body!
Moreover… Purple Summers believed that for Gavin Graves, he’d rather see someone else’s child get hurt than have Cherry lose a hand.
Everyone has their selfish aspects.
After all the care and tenderness, holding her in the palm, and then she heartlessly decides to chop off her hand just like that.
How could Gavin Graves not be angry?
Cherry was actually good at reading people’s expressions. As soon as she saw Gavin Graves looking angry, she immediately started crying and acting pitiful because that way he’d feel bad about blaming her and would even comfort her.
She silently praised her own cleverness in her heart.
Gavin Graves fed Cherry the soup, and Cherry obediently took small sips while secretly observing Gavin Graves’ expression.
He really seemed angry, his demeanor was extremely cold.
“How is Alexander Summers handling things over there?” Gavin Graves asked Purple Summers.
Purple Summers pursed her lips, was silent for a moment, then said: “Gene was hidden in a storage room on the lower floor, by the time he was found, he was already dead, his entire body covered in wounds, the wounds varied in size and depth, it’s estimated that he was stabbed to death by at least three people wielding different knives.”
She sighed softly, then continued: “The people from Under The Rose have already handed all the bodies over to the Stan Family, claiming that Gene was assassinated by an enemy, and the Stan Brothers were innocently implicated.
Alexander Summers said that Under The Rose, in order to protect its reputation, would cover this up even if they found out it was related to the crew on the ship, otherwise, no one would ever dare to attend Under The Rose’s auctions again.”
