NovelEnglishChapter 716:
Well, now, you're the reason, not her!”
Hadley’s breath caught sharply, stunned by his reckless words.
Drawing closer, Eric whispered into her ear, “Take a good look—these injuries reopened because of you.”
Hadley stiffened, her body trembling...
Eric had gone utterly mad—completely beyond reason!
Several of his wounds had reopened, and now he required immediate surgery to repair the damage.
This procedure was more complex due to its repetitive nature. Since Hadley wasn’t a direct family member, the
hospital contacted Ernest to cand sign the necessary paperwork.
Hadley found a quiet spot on a bench outside the OR.
The sound of high heels clicking sharply against the floor approached, stopping abruptly nearby.
“Hadley!” Linda harshly grabbed Hadley’s shoulder, her eyes blazing with accusation. “You're far more ruthless

“Humph!” Linda sneered bitterly. “You really can’t stand it, can you? Jealous that Eric took those injuries for me?
What are you going to do about it? He cares aboutthis much! And he always will, for the rest of his life!”
Observing Linda's heated reaction, Hadley suddenly empathized with Eric.
“Linda, are you holding something against Eric?”
“What?” Startled by the question, Linda responded, “What are you implying?”
“You don’t bear a grudge?” With a knowing nod, a wry smile crossed Hadley’s refined features. “Then it seems
you're just incredibly self-centered. Frankly, you desire the affection of both brothers, yet marriage binds you to
only one. You can’t stand the thought of Eric with anyone else...”
“Hadley! Shut up!” Linda cut her off, her face contorting with anger. “What nonsense is this? How dare you
suggest such vile things? Eric and | have a lifelong bond. | prioritize his well-being above all!”
“Save your self-righteous act.”
Hadley’s gaze was cool, her voice even.
“If you really cared as you claim, you wouldn't have insinuated tothat he would always hold a place for you
in his heart... such remarks.”

With a sly grin, Hadley tossed her hair and walked away.
Linda stood there, utterly shocked and lost for words.
