Chapter 1468

Bernard’s eyes were rimmed with a dark crimson, a testament to countless sleepless nights and worry that hung heavy in his heart. He stood, transfixed by the sight of Eleanor, lying still on the operating table. She had listened to him, fought tooth and nail, and returned from death’s doorstep…

“Eleanor, you’re a true fighter,” Bernard whispered, a silent prayer of thanks escaping his lips. He had never been more grateful or more terrified, but thankfully, she had pulled through.

His hands were planted firmly on the cold hospital floor, palms slick with the blood that had dripped down from his clenched fists. The fear that had gripped him still shook his body, rendering him too weak to even consider standing…

It wasn’t until the piercing cry of a newborn filled the room that Bernard lifted his gaze to see Mr. Keith cradling the tiny infant. The baby, so tiny and delicate, had inherited his mother’s fierce spirit and had also made it through…

The sound of the baby’s cries, mingled with the steady beep of the heart monitor, made Bernard feel the overwhelming power of life for the first time. A wave of emotion swelled within him, threatening to spill over.

The infant, now safely ensconced in an incubator, wasn’t out of the woods yet. His survival was momentary, and it would take the doctors’ relentless effort to keep him alive. Blake, having seen his great-grandson survive, felt no need to linger any longer. As he turned to leave, he felt Bernard’s icy grip on his ankle…

Blake looked down, locking eyes with Bernard’s bloodthirsty gaze just before being thrown to the ground. Before he could react, a barrage of punches rained down on him…

Bernard unleashed his fury, his fists pounding relentlessly, the old man’s blood soon staining the hospital floor.
