Chapter 345

Back then, to Ernest, Hadley had always seemed like the little sister he never had.

Every time she approached him with that sweet smile of hers, Ernest would gently pat her head with a warm smile of his own, saying, "Be a good girl and focus on your studies, and remember, you can always come to me if you need anything."

Now, overwhelmed by these memories, Hadley couldn't hold back her tears and sobbed deeply.

Remaining beside his bed, she whispered, "You'll get better, Ernest... You have to recover."

She believed firmly that he would return to being his kind and gentle old self, the bright and dignified eldest son of the Flynn family.

Eric stood there, a wave of melancholy sweeping over him as he watched Hadley with his brother.
