No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 725

Her tears suddenly turned into laughter, "Sis, I'm hungry. I really want some porridge." "Sure, I'll get you some," I immediately responded. "Do you want any meat with it?"

She used to love meat, always talking about dieting whenever she indulged.

"Meat is good for you, right? Let's have some then," Deborah was still her cheeky self.

But seeing her like this only made my heart ache more. Despite the obvious pain, she didn't forget to smile, and I smiled back, playing along. "Alright, I'll get your favorite braised pork."

"I want it with a bit of fat and lean," she insisted, demanding perfection in her meal as always.

"Got it, I'll pick the best and biggest piece," I said as I stood up to leave.

However, I didn't immediately leave after stepping out the door. Instead, I stood by the entrance, and soon, I could hear sobbing coming from inside.

Leaning against the wall, my heart twisted in pain for a while before I went to get her food. I didn't expect to run into Conrad here.

Maybe it was the shocking image of him coughing up blood that came to mind upon seeing him, but his presence evoked that vivid memory.

He saw me too, our gazes locked, but neither of us spoke.

Eventually, he walked past me, as if we were strangers who never knew each other.
