Chapter 62: The Richard - She Left Me again

The white-haired man slowly approached the bed. His eyes shone with happiness, but tears also seemed to well up there. I don't know how many decades they haven't seen each other, but the image is clear in Paul Stell's eyes, how much he loves Layla Stone, whether it was decades ago, or even now.

After being transferred to the treatment room, Layla's condition was not always stable. Sometimes for no apparent reason, her condition drops, but she manages to return to stability after getting help from the medical team. Like just before Paul Steel came, Layla was put to sleep by the medical team to keep her condition stable in full post-surgery rest.
