Chapter 1475
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
âThe doctors say that people with Third Degree Blocks canât live past the age of twentyâseven, so thereâs no telling how much longer I can live.
âIf only I can go out and take a look at this big, beautiful world before I die,â Roanne sighed as her heart sank.
Her health deteriorated ever since she turned 20, and not only did she experience more frequent attacks, each attack was even more severe than the last, and she could clearly sense that she did not have much time. left on this earth.
The last few months, she had a strong longing to explore the outside world before she died, but unfortunately, her parents refused to let her go outside in consideration of how severe her disease was.
There was nothing she could do about this, and no one to talk to.
Just as she was deep in her thoughts, frantic footsteps rang out from behind her as Yuri, Leon, and Raphael stormed into her room.
âYuri, Raphael, what are you doing here?â an expression of delight crossed Roanneâs face when she saw them, and her pale face immediately flushed with color as she got up to meet them.
âWhat a stunning girl!â Leon thought as his gaze landed on Roanneâs dainty face, in awe of her beauty.
Roanne was about 23 or 24 years old, with a dainty face, sculpted features, and beautiful, twinkling eyes. Her skin was rosy and thin, and she was wearing a white nightgown that made her look as though she walked straight out of a fairytale.
Roanneâs beauty was no less than that of Iris and the rest of the Four Beauties, and this was the first time Leon even came across such a stunning woman in the Southern region!
Unfortunately, she was sick with a terminal illness, with caused her skin to become eerily pale, and her skinny frame looked as though she would be blown away by the wind at any moment. However, her frailty made any man who set eyes on her want to take her under his wing and protect her from the harshness of life.
âRoanne, you should sit down and get some more rest,â Yuri said as he gestured for Roanne to sit back down in her chair.
âWhoâs this, Yuri?â Roanne asked dubiously, glancing at the only unfamiliar face in the room. Due to her constantly being kept indoors, she rarely got to meet anyone outside of her family, especially someone who was her age, like Leon. Because of this, she could not help scrutinizing him out of curiosity.
âOh, let me introduce you. This is Mister Leon Wolf. I invited him here to help cure you. Mister Wolf, this is my sister, Roanne.â Yuri briefly introduced them to each other.
âNice to meet you, Miss Thompson,â Leon greeted her with a smile.
âIs this man here to follow me up, Yuri?â Roanne asked, suddenly recalling something. Ever since her condition deteriorated a few years ago, her father and brother would occasionally arrange for famous doctors to visit her and follow her up to ensure everything was okay.
However, all the doctors they brought over in the past were middleâaged or even elderly men; this was her first time coming across a doctor as young as Leon.
Because of this, Roanne could not help feeling a little puzzled by this.
