Alaric Faulkner entered the room as Faye Sterling lay on the hospital bed, with Rosalie Ray out purchasing items and not present in the room.
Upon seeing Alaric Faulkner, Faye Sterling immediately became agitated and struggled to sit up.
"Alaric, did you come to see me? Do you finally believe me? The baby... the baby is gone. Can we start over together?"
Alaric Faulkner’s gaze was indifferent, looking at Faye Sterling who was lost in her own fantasies, with a somewhat mocking expression.
Faye Sterling looked at Alaric Faulkner, her eyes pleading.
Alaric Faulkner stood lazily, his deep eyes carrying a hint of ridicule, as he asked, "Do you think after you’ve been deceiving me with your lies about the child all these years,
and then finding another lover to cuckold me, we could actually start over?
Or do you think I’m easy to talk into things, a pushover who lets others step on him without daring to make a sound?"
Faye Sterling cried, her tears continuously rolling down.
She and Aaron Underwood’s beginning was indeed due to the influence of alcohol, and afterward, she fell deeper into it.
That was because Alaric Faulkner never touched her, which led her to secretly find pleasure with Aaron multiple times.
Now Faye Sterling felt extremely regretful.
She should not have stayed in touch with Aaron because of her selfish desires, otherwise, today’s events would never have happened.
"Alaric, I’ve been by your side for seven years, even a stone could be warmed by now, doesn’t your heart soften even a little?
I am willing to admit my mistakes. In the future, I’ll listen and won’t do anything that would displease you."
Alaric Faulkner laughed; his expression suddenly turned cold, his eyes sharp as he looked at Faye Sterling.
"I’m not here to see you play the victim; I just want to tell you that everything today serves as your lesson. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on noveⅼfire.net
If you’re smart, you’ll find a corner to stay quietly in. If you provoke me or Eleanor Sterling again, the consequences won’t be as simple as they are now."
Faye Sterling was shocked, staring blankly at Alaric Faulkner.
Was Alaric Faulkner here to warn her?
Moreover, he implicated Eleanor Sterling in this. Does Eleanor Sterling mean that much to him? What’s so good about her?
Faye Sterling felt extremely unwilling in her heart.
But she knew Alaric Faulkner’s words held weight.
He was the Faulkner’s Hades; no one could bear the force of his retribution.
Now he merely gave her a small warning, and it almost cost her half her life.
Faye Sterling’s face was pale, tears streaming down continuously.
While Faye Sterling was crying, the hospital room’s door was suddenly slammed open.
Mrs. Faulkner stormed in like a whirlwind.
Pointing at Faye Sterling, she angrily said, "You want to act pitiful in front of Alaric again? Do you think Alaric is someone you can fool?
Someone as filthy as you, the Faulkner Family cannot afford to have; get as far away as you can!"
"Alaric, what are you doing here? You’re not being swayed by this woman, are you?"
Alaric Faulkner shrugged, "Just here to say a few words. I’ve said what I needed to; you can continue catching up."
After speaking, he turned and walked out.
Mrs. Faulkner then exhaled a relieved breath.
She had heard that after the wedding banquet, Alaric Faulkner came to the hospital to see Faye Sterling.
She was somewhat nervous, worried that he might get bewitched by that woman again, so she hurried over. Fortunately, Alaric Faulkner was very clear-minded.
Now that Alaric Faulkner had left, Mrs. Faulkner felt there was nothing more to say to Faye Sterling, so she snorted coldly and turned to leave.
After everyone left, the hospital room quieted down.
Moments later, Faye Sterling covered her face and began to cry uncontrollably.
The piercing cries coming from the hospital room sounded as if her heart was breaking.
