Chapter 22
After a moment of noise, Waylon’s cautious voice came through: “Have you really let him go?”
As soon as the sentence was uttered, Braydon in the hospital bed instantly tensed his body and held his breath, afraid that he might have missed a word.
Soon, Emma’s firm and resolute voice fell into Braydon’s ears: “Yes.”
The word “is” was like a bolt from the blue, causing Braydon’s blood to freeze in an instant. His fingers unconsciously clenched the sheets, knuckles turning white. His body felt as if it were nailed to the hospital bed, unable to move an inch.
His mind went blank, all thoughts were instantly stripped away, as if the whole world collapsed in that moment.
The increasing ringing in his cars made it difficult for him to hear Emma’s next words.
Actually, it didn’t matter if he listened or not, after all, this one word had already told him her answer.
She really let him go.
This also meant that she no longer loved him and would not turn back for him again.
Braydon’s affection this month was all self–centered.

But the recorder kept playing her words.
“Over the years, I have loved him, complained about him, and even harbored hatred towards him, but all of these feelings have faded with time. Not seeing him again, not bothering him anymore, is the best outcome. After all, we are now just strangers.”
Emma spoke at length in a very calm manner, her tone filled with acceptance.
Let it go.
“Heh…”
After a long time, Braydon finally reacted.
Many things he wanted to say in his heart all turned into this bitter smile.
Waylon looked at Braydon’s expression and knew that he would not go looking for Emma again in the future.
So Waylon quietly got up, closed the door, and left.
Braydon was completely paralyzed on the hospital bed, his hands hanging weakly at his sides, his eyes staring blankly ahead.
His chest felt like it was being tightly pressed by something, making his breathing difficult and heavy.
Images of the past kept flashing in his mind, the beautiful memories he once shared with Emma now stabbing his heart like a knife.
Finally, he lost her completely.

Braydon looked up in despair, a tear rolling down his cheek.
On the other end, Emma anxiously asked Waylon who had returned, “How did it go? How did it go?”
Waylon chuckled and patted her head, “The person who saved you has already accepted our thanks.”
“He also said that we just met by chance, you don’t need to thank him specially again, just live well.”
Emma finally breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, she had wanted to personally thank the person who had saved her.
But Waylon stopped her and insisted on going to thank them himself.
With the final matter resolved, Emma excitedly pushed Waylon towards home.
“Hurry up, I’m craving for the sweet and sour spare ribs that my mom made!”
“Got it, little glutton.”
The playful and laughing siblings‘ figures made Braydon in a certain ward feel envious.
But he didn’t say anything, just turned to look at the person coming to pick him up, Kade.
“Master, the conditions you proposed have been agreed to by the
master. He will select a new person from the collateral branch to train as the new heir.‘
Braydon nodded and said, “Let’s go.”

Emma, goodbye.
I’m really sorry for everything that happened in the past.
I hope you will not have a brilliant presence in my life in the future.
