When Love Breaks by Jack

Chapter 610

After dinner, Gregory and I made our way to the hospital.

I had packed some dinner for my mom, but when we got to the room, she wasn’t there.

Ramona was already asleep, nothing pressing there.

Now, everything hinged on whether Victor could pull through.

Gregory led me straight to the ICU.

There, I spotted Bella and approached her, saying, “Hey, Mom.”

Bella looked at me, and I braced myself for her to get emotional, but her face was unreadable, devoid of emotion.

I nodded.

Bella cursed under her breath, “He’s a menace. If he’d just listened to Ramona for once, it wouldn’t have come to this. I do wish he pulls through, just to see his beloved Pearl cozying up with someone else, and to realize that the daughter he raised with so much care all these years… well, she was never really his.”
