Chapter 518: Chapter 572

Chapter 572 At this moment, Haleigh entered, carrying a thermos.

Her gaze paused when she saw the protection charm in Bryce’s hand.

She recognized it.

One must kneel step by step to pray at the Sanctuary of Universal Auspiciousness.

When Emily fell seriously ill, Deandre went to the Sanctuary of Universal Auspiciousness to pray for the same protection charm for her.

Unfortunately, in the end, Emily still couldn’t be saved.

Haleigh’s lashes fluttered at the thought, a dull ache settling in her chest.

“Bryce,” Haleigh called out to Bryce, looking slightly startled.“Did you go to pray for the protection charm?”

She stared blankly at the charm, her eyes fixed as if she were looking through it into the past.

Bryce’s deep eyes were still fixed on Marie.“Hmm.”

Haleigh was surprised.

After a while, she came back to her senses.

Her gaze on Bryce intensified, eyes holding new depth.

Bryce had taken Annika to the Logan family several times.

So Haleigh recognized him.

At that time, Haleigh had already noticed a hint.

She always felt that Bryce’s gaze towards Marie was special.

But Marie said that they were just friends, and Haleigh didn’t want to ask too much.

At this moment, seeing the protection charm, she understood everything.

Bryce didn’t treat Marie as a friend but as a girlfriend.

Anyway, it showed his sincerity.

Marie did not refuse.

She took the protection charm, averted her gaze, and whispered, “Thank you.”

Caylee and Fiona exchanged a glance.

They had different expressions.

Fiona, who had always loved joking, was silent at this moment.

She used to say that Bryce and Marie were a perfect match.

But now was not the time for jokes.

< Chapter 577 Marie barely escaped death.

Lennon and Marie seemed to have no chance of being together anymore.

As Marie’s longtime best friend, Fiona could still tell that Marie hadn’t completely gotten over Lennon.

Now that they were like this, Marie must have felt very upset.

Life was unpredictable.

Fiona and Caylee sighed silently.

Menu Another ten days passed.

Royce’s body deteriorated day by day, visibly becoming more haggard. His hair was almost completely gone, and he had become emaciated, reduced to a mere skeleton.

Bella was burdened with this matter, and she felt depressed and sorrowful all day long. In addition, she had a heart disease, so in just half a month, she seemed to have aged many years.

Bella was now just hanging on by a thread.

Perhaps on the day Royce died, she also died.

Dark clouds hung over the Stark family, the air thick with tension.

The nannies and servants were all afraid to speak loudly, for fear of losing their jobs.

Robert came back to New York this time and stayed for three days before returning to Washington.

The second day, he went abroad for a visit.

The major plans were locked in months ago, with no last–minute changes or swapping players. Robert had zero wiggle room in his position.

Even if his wife and son were on the verge of death, Robert couldn’t stay with them every day.

At the hospital.

The nanny set up the lunch.

It was a very insipid and nutritious meal.

However, Royce had no appetite at all.

He knew his condition.

Lennon stood by the window making a phone call, with his back facing Royce.

The police got some news.

The poisoning case had been concluded with solid evidence. The police transferred the case to the prosecutor’s office for prosecution.

Royce lowered his eyes and remained silent.

Lennon glanced at him lightly without saying a word.

After a while, Royce hesitantly spoke up. I want to meet Nikolas”

Lennon’s heart trembled, and his eyes turned cold.

He had been harmed by Nikolas like this, but in the end, he still longed to see him.

He truly loved this illegitimate child.

Lennon’s face turned cold, with a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.

At this moment, he wanted to ask Royce, “After all these years, did you ever care about me? Did you ever love me?*

But Lennon just kept it to himself.

“No way,” He coldly replied and walked away.

Royce gazed at the back of Lennon and suddenly shouted, “Lenny, please let me see Nikolas!”

Lennon suddenly froze in place.

He clenched his fists.

I’m sorry. I’m sorry.” Royce’s eyes turned red, and his voice, unable to suppress the sobbing made Lennon’s heart feel heavy.

“I don’t have many days left to live. This is my retribution....” Royce cried. “Before I die, I have some words for Nikolas. Let me see him.”

Mersi Meanwhile, after Lennon submitted the evidence of Nikolas’s multiple other crimes to the police, the prosecutor’s office would bring charges against Nikolas for the crimes committed in America.

The prosecution’s sentencing recommendation, when filing charges, was the immediate execution of the death penalty.

Lennon hung up the phone and turned around.

Royce did not eat the food at all.

Is it about the lawsuit against Nikolas and Lauryn?” Royce asked weakly.

Lennon responded with a cold and indifferent “Hmm.”

“What did the police say?”

Lennon’s voice stayed steady.“Poisoning equals murder. Beyond that, Nikolas faces kidnapping, organized crime, and illegal guns. Prosecutors want him executed. Lauryn’s attempted murder combines with her past crimes–life in prison.”

In the next life.” Lennon man spoke slowly, his voice icy.

Having had lunch, Marie chatted with Caylee and Fiona in the ward.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside.

The screams resounded one after another.

“What happened outside? Fiona frowned.

Marie looked out and said, “There is a lot of commotion. Something must have happened.”

TII go take a look. Fiona stood up.“Caylee, stay here and keep Marie company.”

Caylee nodded slightly. “Hmm.”

Fiona left.

Marie felt restless.

She had a feeling that something bad had happened.

Soon, the door of the ward was forcefully pushed open with a loud bang, and Fiona came back panting She stood at the door, her face pale, her eyes wide with fear, her lips trembling, unable to speak for a while.

Seeing her strange appearance, Caylee and Mariela exchanged a glance, both of them looking rather unhappy.

Marie asked, “What happened?”
