Chapter 191 Chapter 191 Cruelty Before departing, I held a simple funeral for Randall. He endured a challenging life, and I knew he had contemplated the idea of dying alongside Keenan from the start.
I could still recall his words on the rooftop that day. Although I might not have been able to resolve the issue, he intended to find his own solution. Ultimately, it all cdown to saving Rivaella.
Rivaella appeared to mature almost overnight, losing her spoiled behavior. She beccalmer and more composed, which was unusual for her.

We were all in this together, having lost our families. However, she declined. "Eva, I understand that you're going through a tough time. I'll keep pursuing my studies here in Melgrove, and then I'll prepare for the college entrance exam. Alisa will be here to helptoo." Alisa nodded in agreement. "Eva, the Harmons are not easy to deal with. With Leonard in this condition, you must prioritize your own well-being too. Remember, I'm always there for you. You don't have to shoulder all the burdens alone, especially when it comes to your health. Do you understand?" Her gaze held a profound significance, and I instantly grasped her meaning. My health was deteriorating, and Leonard lay in a coma. The Harmons were likely plotting their next move.
Mr. Harmon Senior was becoming increasingly frustrated withtoo. Upon my return, I would undoubtedly face yet another difficult confrontation.
Noticing Riva's resolute expression, I decided it was best not to let her followany further. My current circumstances were quite dire, and it was better for her to focus on her studies and life here. They accompaniedto the airport and promised to visit, but I was uncertain when we would see each other again.
As soon as we boarded the plane, Ivy sarcastically remarked, "Your cousin's love for you is so touching. I heard she betrayed her father, and your uncle even hired someone to kill your dad. The cruelty truly runs in your family genes." "Ivy, would you like to give it a shot?" I sat on Leonard's bed, my expression blank as I wiped his face. After such a brief toutdoors, his skin had developed a slight sunburn.
"What did you say?" Ivy almost lost her temper, but Bob glared at her, making her sit back down.
She continued to murmur, "How do we know you didn't do it on purpose? With Leonard in a coma, does his money and company automatically becyours? Perhaps you conspired with Chap 191 Cruelty your cousin. One harmed her father and the other her husband..." I dismissed what she was saying as nonsense. Suddenly, I noticed Mr. Harmon Senior stop and look at me. My hand, which was wiping Leonard's face, froze too.
However, I pretended not to notice and kept wiping. Even if Ivy hadn't brought it up, I believed Mr. Harmon Senior would have had his suspicions about me.

The plane was eerily quiet during the flight, and I knew everything would change once we returned, AsO M expected, after Leonard was moved to the VIP ward, Mr. Harmon Senior had Luca take over Leonard's position temporarily. "I disagree." I interrupted. If Luca becthe president, Leonard's years of effort would be in vain.
"Who do you think you are? You have no right to object!" Bob and Ivy abruptly pointed atand scolded me.
I chose to disregard them, my gaze firmly locked on Mr. Harmon Senior. "Mr. Harmon Senior, Leonard is expected to wake up any moment now it's not the right tto appoint someone else as president. Are you truly unwilling to wait for your own grandson?" I could only hope that Mr. Harmon Senior still harbored sfamilial affection for Leonard, yet he remained silent.
"How's Leonard?" a male voice suddenly inquired. I could see that Mr. Hammon Senior was momentarily E taken aback.
