Chapter 358

Leandro wearily trudged forward and sat at the edge of Gloria’s bed.

He had said it many times before. He was never one to beat around the bush, but now, looking at Gloria lying on the bed, he felt compelled to repeat himself.

“You know he’s always been like this, why keep hurting yourself over it?” Leandro said slowly. “Is it really that hard to let go?”

Gloria laid motionless, taking a long time to respond.

Her face was expressionless, her lips slowly parting to speak in a weak voice, “I won’t let him go, not even if I die… I’ll make sure he suffers for the rest of his life…”

Leandro’s gaze hardened for a moment, then he quickly drew back the blanket covering Gloria.

The bed was soaked in blood, chilling shivers ran down his spine at the sight of the cutting wounds on Gloria’s wrists.

Leandro felt a sudden chill throughout his body.

This was Gloria’s second suicide attempt in short succession.

The previous time, she had swallowed half a bottle of sleeping pills. They didn’t send her to the hospital, didn’t tell anyone, and had been saved here at the Reynolds Vista Retreat.

This time, however, she absolutely had to go to the hospital.

Upon hearing the news, Seraphina hesitated for a moment, but eventually rushed to the hospital.

Despite the severity of the situation, the hospital was eerily calm. As Seraphina arrived at the emergency room, she saw no one from the Reynolds family, other than Karan standing guard at the door. Even Leandro was nowhere to be seen.

“Karan,” Seraphina approached and called her name, “How’s Gloria?”

Karan looked pale. She glanced at Seraphina and weakly said, “She’s still in critical condition.”

Seraphina took another look at the ER door and asked, “Where’s Leandro?”

“I don’t know.” Karan replied indifferently. “He left a while ago.”
