Chapter 304 Broken Lineage

Silas, the kind of man who never flinched, had stayed lent through every brew. Even when he be his news tongue, it was as if he was ending it with precision.

No matter how much we tortured him, he never once legged for mercy or showed any sign of reaper.

Yet, I couldn't stop the resentment that his death cameo easily. Even though he had been carrying on someone else's orders to kill me, he was still the one who had taken my life. Who could say how many lives were on his conscience I couldn't just let it go.

And now... now he was gone.

I clenched my clothes, frustration rising in my chest.

Why? We had covered every angle. Even when Sheila and Anna approached him, we kept an eye on them.

We had arranged for his food to be handled by someone we trusted. So, why had he still died?

Anna, too, couldn't accept it.

She gently touched Silas's cold face, her voice trembling. "I'll take you with me.

She tried to lift him, draping his arms over her shoulders, as if she thought she could carry him.

But it was impossible. He was over six feet tall. A body is heavy.

No matter how hard she pulled, he didn't move.

She did not have the strength to take him with her.

Adam, noticing the blood pooling beneath Anna, rushed to her side.

"You're pregnant. Think about your baby. If you don't care about yourself, do it for the child. Silas is gone, but you still have to protect his child."

Tears streamed down Anna's face, and suddenly, she shouted, "No, he's not dead! He's just sleeping. He promised he would always be with me."

At that moment, the doctor arrived. Concerned for the baby, the Boltons' staff tried to reason with Anna. "You need to focus on the baby. You're carrying his child. You can't lose that either." "The baby, Anna murmured, her hand instinctively going to her stomach.

So much blood had already soaked the ground beneath her.

The sight of it seemed to snap her back to reality. Gripping the doctor's sleeve, she pleaded, "Please, save my baby. I can't lose him. I've already lost Silas. Don't take my child too."

After they had to physically pull her away, Adam stood, his eyes bloodshot and staring at the lifeless form of his son-his son who had never once called him 'Dad'
