Chapter 352
When Hailey found out that Garett and Bernard had both left, she dashed to the hospital.
There on the hospital bed lay Eleanor, her back all patched up with medicine, but her wounds were still
festering.
She was lying on her side, her eyes blank, just staring out the window.
As Hailey approached, she realized Eleanor was in so such pain that she was breaking out in a cold
sweat, but hadn’t made a peep.
She was clutching the sheets, as if trying to alleviate the pain, but it was no use.
Seeing Eleanor like this, Hailey couldn’t help but shed tears, “Eleanor…”
Hearing Hailey’s voice, Eleanor slowly lifted her eyes, her unfocused gaze fixed on the figure in front of
her for a long while.
When she finally made out it was Hailey, she parted her dry lips and whispered, “Hailey…”
Hailey could sense the helplessness in Eleanor’s tone.
Touched, Hailey picked up a towel nearby, bent down and wiped the sweat off Eleanor’s forehead.

Eleanor, enduring the intense pain, gave her a small shake of her head, as if trying to say something
but not knowing what to say.
As Hailey was gently wiping her forehead, she noticed the divorce papers by Eleanor’s pillow.
She picked them up and took a glance, her brows furrowing when she saw the names.
No wonder Garett’s phone was off. Turned out he and Eleanor got divorced.
Hailey looked at Eleanor, so pale and feeble, and her heart ached even more.
“Eleanor, Garett probably thought Bernard would stay by your side, that’s why he divorced you…”
Eleanor managed to put on a weak smile, seemingly too tired to talk about it.
Hailey sat down by the bed, held Eleanor’s hand, as if trying to lend her some strength, and gave it a
squeeze.
“Eleanor, it’s okay. They might have left, but I’m still here. I’ll be by your side, and I will never leave
you.”
Liana had said that Bernard chose to let go, leaving Eleanor to Garett, and that was why he didn’t
come to take care of Eleanor.
She immediately called Garett, hoping to rekindle their old flame, but she didn’t expect him to also let
go..
Bernard, breaking off their agreement three years ago, left Eleanor once. This would be the second
time.
Garett, having amnesia eight years ago, left Eleanor once. This would be the second time.
They both chose to leave Eleanor, but not her.
She, Hailey, would stick by Eleanor, taking good care of her.
A sense of warmth filled Eleanor, and a hint of color came back to her vacant eyes, “Hailey, thank you
for all these years…”
Just like a big sister, Hailey stroked her sweaty hair, “The best thanks would be for you to get better
soon.”
Life had been too hard to her Eleanor. Always trying to hold on tight to something, but always slipping
away, and in the end, still got dumped.

Hailey picked up the towel again, wiped Eleanor’s face and bare skin, and even helped massage her
immobile legs..
Liana stood outside the ward, and seeing this scene, envy
filled her eyes.
All these years, she’d been fighting alone, never had anyone by her side.
Ms. Shultz was indeed luckier to have a sister like this always by her side.
Liana didn’t dare to hope for things that didn’t belong to her, so she turned away, pulled out her phone,
and called Mr. Laurence.
Now that Garett and Ms. Shultz were divorced, Mr. Laurence finally had a chance!
However, after several calls, his phone was still off.
She had no choice but to call Aldyn, who said Mr. Laurence was abroad and would be at the air base
for a year.
Liana looked back at the ward, and told Aidyn, “If you can get hold of Mr. Laurence, tell him, Ms. Shultz
won’t be short of suitors. When he comes back after a year, if she has a boyfriend…”
After saying that, Liana was so mad she hung up. At a time when Ms. Shultz needed Mr. Laurence the
most, he was absent. Was he going to let someone else step in?
