Chapter 592
Harold opened his eyes again. There was neither sadness nor joy in them. He said lightly, “Halden
won’t kill her”
His love was deformed and sick, but he would not allow Leilani to die.
Old Madam Grecic clenched the sheet with trembling fingers and said in a hoarse voice, “Why, are you
holding expectations toward your so-called father?”
“Holding expectations?” Harold smiled. “Looks like you’re really dying soon. You’re not even clear-
headed now.”
“If there is anything else you want to say before you die, say it as soon as possible.” Harold raised his
wrist, looked at the time, and calmly said, “I have something else to do.”
Old Madam Grecic closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and said, “I didn’t like Leilani, but I didn’t want

Harold was stunned. “What?”
The corners of Old Madam Grecic’s lips curled into a sinister smile as she said, “No one wanted her to
die. It was just that she didn’t want to continue living anymore.”
“That day” Old Madam Grecic seemed to have fallen into a new memory of the past “It was snowing
heavily.” Halden was not at home as he had something to do. Leilani was sitting alone in the yard.
There were at least a dozen people around her. They were both monitoring and protecting her
She didn’t have any human rights in the Grecic family. She couldn’t even kill herself Freedom became
an unreachable hope.
On that day, Old Madam Grecic passed by Silent Temple and saw a plum blossom blooming in the
snow at the door. She stopped and looked at it for a few seconds. Leilani, who was under the tree,
turned her head and showed a pale but beautiful face. She asked softly, “Old Madam Grecic, can you
talk to me for a while?” Old Madam Grecic had an intuition that something was wrong. After all, the
relationship between her and Leilani was so bad that everyone in City W knew about it. How could
Leilani invite her to chat? However, it seemed that Leilani had not had a normal conversation with
anyone for a long time. She raised her hand and poured a cup of tea. With the fragrance of the tea
curling up, she smiled and said, “There is no one else in the Grecic family who would accompany me
For some unknown reason, Old Madam Grecic walked in.
That time, Leilani’s words were harsh and offended Old Madam Grecic. She was so angry that she
asked people to drag Leilani to the ancestral hall from Silent Temple. Halden’s men hurriedly reported
the news, but Halden didn’t come back in time.
Old Madam Grecic smashed the teacup into pieces in the ancestral hall, and Leilani took one fragment
to slit her own throat.
Old Madam Grecic was also shocked by Leilani’s madness. She was afraid that Halden would take

to send Leilani to the crematorium and burned her into a pile of ashes. She lied to the outsiders that
Leilani was suffering from an old illness and could not make it through.
This was the story version that outsiders knew.
Old Madam Grecic coughed and said, “That day… she begged me.”
“She said that she felt disgusting staying by Halden’s side every day” Old Madam Grecic seemed to
think of Leilani’s cruel and fragile look. “She made a deal with me.”
Harold said expressionlessly, “Grecic Group.”
Old Madam Grecic smiled self-deprecatingly. “…Yes, Leilani was so smart. She said that as long as I
helped her, she would let Mark take charge of the Grecic Group.”
After a long silence, Harold asked, “Why did she… burn herself to death?”
“Is it hard to understand?” Old Madam Grecic said in a hoarse voice, “She didn’t even want to leave her
body to Halden and you. Tell me, how much do you think she hated you and your father?” @
