George said, "I know what happened. | also feel terrible for Jeremy's loss, but | know you never wanted it to
happen.
"He sacrificed himself for Hill City, and I'm sure he wouldn't want to see you like that-broken and devastated. If
you feel guilty about it, the least you can do is keep this city safe. Besides..."
George then moved to the side, allowing Stephen to look at Rachel, Nolan, Austin, the doctors, and the nurses.
"You have them. These people care about you. You're never alone."
As soon as his words settled in, Simon walked in.
Stephen started weeping when he saw the people around him.
"You're up?" Simon said excitedly, "I have good news for you. I've got a lot of letters for you, and one of them is
from Snow."
Stephen's eyes widened. "Where is it?"
George shifted uncomfortably, while the light in Rachel's eyes dimmed. She could not understand why she,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcoming from a well-respected and prominent background, was not enough for Stephen. Why was Snow, just an
ordinary woman, so special?
Simon handed Stephen several letters. These were prepared in advance after the phone call from Nolan,
knowing that it was Austin's idea. Originally, they had only planned to show him one letter, but Simon took a
step further and got more. If Stephen knew people were supporting him, it might help boost his spirits further.
Stephen opened the letter. When he saw the writing on the letter, his body started shaking, and tears rolled
down his cheeks.
He held it tight in his arms and asked, "Where did you get them? Can we locate Snow?"
Simon shook his head. "There was no return address on it, but I'm sure she's watching you from somewhere. And
if you don't pick yourself up, it'll hurt her too."
Hearing that, Stephen's whole demeanor changed. It was like life had been breathed back into him.
Austin observed Stephen's condition from the side and let out a quiet sigh of relief. It had been a gamble, using
so many little lies to keep Stephen from falling apart, but in the end, it worked.
As he glanced over, he noticed Rachel's face had turned paled, and the
excitement on his face faded. Compared to Rachel, Stephen was more concerned about Snow.
Austin realized the problem was not over. He might have cured Stephen, but the process exacerbated Rachel's
condition. As a psychologist, he believed he should also help Rachel.
Stephen's energy was back, and everyone was thrilled. Simon immediately
ordered for food to be brought over for Stephen.
George and Stephen then struck up a conversation.
"How've you been holding up in there?"
George forced a smile on his face. "It's okay. | think my cholesterol levels have improved."
"I'm so sorry for everything that happened," Stephen said.
"It's fine. You did your best."
George did not blStephen for his imprisonment. It was Nico who was way too ruthless.
At that moment, Simon cover and said, "I've been thinking. I'll make a donation to the prison where you've
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbeen staying, George, and install an air-con in every cell."
George played a vital part in Stephen's recovery, and on top of that, Stephen had slapped Rachel last night.
Simon felt bad, so he thought of making things better for George inside the prison.
Meanwhile, Austin asked Rachel out to have a word.
He asked, "Where's Ethan Rivers? I'll have a word with him for you."
Rachel gave him Ethan's location, and without wasting any time, he headed to Ethan's place. On the way up, he
was stopped by the guards, but one call to Rachel later, he was allowed through.
A while later, Austin saw Ethan's mansion.
