Chapter 688

Anne tensed when she saw the bodyguard standing in front of the door and summoned the

courage to approach.

The bodyguard stopped them as soon as they got closer.

"There's no one in there now. Can you just let us in? We will come out right away," Anne pleaded.

"No." The bodyguard would not budge.

Sarah started to panic, not expecting to be stopped by the bodyguard even after Dorothy and

Bianca had left. "Anne, what should we do?"

"Don't panic." Anne took out her phone and walked to the side to call Anthony, who answered after

three seconds. "Can you let me and my mom into the room to see my Dad? Just for a little while,

okay? I want to see how he's doing..."

When Anthony did not respond, she panicked and tears welled up in her eyes. "Please. Let me see

my Dad!"

"Anne..." Sarah tugged at Anne's arm.

Anne turned around and saw Anthony walking out of the doctor's office with his phone in his hand

without hanging up.

She hurried over and begged, "Let us in, okay? We will come out right away! I'm my dad's daughter

as well. He definitely wants to see me! Anthony..."

Anthony felt far more pleased to see her begging after her earlier stubborn display and said, "Go

in"

Anne was stunned for a moment, but immediately said, "Thank you." Before heading into the room

with Sarah.

When she saw Nigel laying on the bed, Anne could no longer control her tears.

Sarah walked over to the bed and looked at Nigel quietly. She could not believe that the man

before her was never going to wake up and would forever lay on the bed for the rest of his life.

"Nigel, your daughter is here. Anne has come to see you. Can you hear me?" Sarah said while

sobbing.

"Dad..." Anne called out to him. She grabbed his hand and her tears scrolled down her cheeks when

she felt how cold his hands were. "Dad, let me warm your hands for you." Before beginning to rub

her hands against his.

"Nigel, wake up. We are back. Open your eyes to see us..." Sarah's heart twisted in pain as she

looked at Nigel in his current state. "What's wrong with you? Why did you put yourself in this

situation? Why did you file a divorce? Was it because of me? Nigel, are you going to wake up?

You've just gotten to know Anne. How can you leave her behind?"

Anne cried, her eyes reddening.

Nigel's hands grew cold again as soon as she warmed them up. "Dad, you have to wake up. I'm so

sorry. I shouldn't have been angry at you. I should have let you send me home. I'm sorry..." Anne

regretted throwing a tantrum at her father, when apologizing to Bianca would not hurt her in any

way.

'I even left the country. Why did I have to be so wilful?" She thought. 'l don't want this..."

Sarah sat on the bench and stared at Nigel dazedly and sobbed without a word.

Knowing that she needed to give Sarah the space, Anne set her father's hands down and went

outside, closing the door behind her.

Anthony did not leave and was waiting outside the door.
