Chapter 1074 Garett suffered from severe depression, a fact wellâknown to Hailey and Bernard.
Eleanorâs distressing condition became evident when she lost color in her face, and her pale hand weakly leaned against the wall.
Yeager, observing the situation, expressed concern about Garettâs wellâbeing to Ms. Shultz, acknowledging the potential danger of severe depression.
Eleanor seemed shocked and surprised by the question.
Yeager felt fortunate that Hailey had introduced him to Garett, as it gave him the opportunity to confront Bernard and protect his friend.
Yeager didnât want to say these things, but Bernard kept coming at him. Why should he let Bernard have it easy?
He wanted to drive a wedge between Eleanor and Bernard, make Eleanor choose to leave Bernard, make Bernard suffer from depression like Garett, and then take his own life!
Thinking about this, Yeager smirked and walked towards Eleanor.
âMs. Shultz, Garettâs depression is because he misses you. You chose to leave him for Bernard. Have you ever thought about how much it hurts him?â
Yeagerâs words hit Eleanor like a sledgehammer.
She remembered how Garett had worked on the construction site to help her raise money for medical expenses...
He was only sixteen then.
He worked tirelessly, bent over, ignoring the sweltering heat, his sweat pouring down, head down, doing all the heavy labor.
When she found out, Garett just laughed and said, âEleanor, Iâm doing this to get fit, not for the moneyâ
But the callouses and scars on his hands were all for her....
Garettâs whole life was for her...
Eleanorâs hand slid down the wall...
Seeing her like this, Yeager was pretty sure he was right..
âMs. Shultz, Garett lost his legs, he canât stand up anymore, and heâs got severe depression. He might die...â
He might die....
Eleanor gazed at Yeager, her face pale and filled with concern. âIs what you said true?â she asked.
âWhether itâs true or not, you should ask Bernard. He knows everything.â Yeager replied, laughing halfâheartedly, his expression dark.
âBut heâs scared of losing you, so he didnât tell you. Heâs actually waiting for Garett to take his own life, he...â Yeagerâs words were cut short by a sudden slap across his face.
Hailey, the one who slapped him, stood there, her eyes red and swollen from fatigue. She showed no pity or hesitation, only pure hatred for Yeager.
âYeager,â she said, her voice strained. Hailey stood protectively in front of Eleanor, her emotions simmering with anger.
âI regret ever introducing you to Garett, Hailey continued, her anger directed at Yeager. When she introduced Yeager to Garett, she hoped he would bring some happiness into his life. But instead, when Yeager learned about Garettâs depression, he chose to hide it from everyone, including Eleanor.
Bernardâs actions were also a source of frustration for Hailey. He promised to help Garett return to his country, only to now make him lose face in front of others.
He couldnât accept this outcome, couldnât accept defeat! It was just a counterattack, he did nothing wrong, absolutely nothing!
Yeager clenched his fists, looking at the extremely disappointed Hailey and Eleanor, who was still in shock, and slowly smirked...
âMs. Shultz, did you hear that? Hailey regrets introducing me to Garett. Thatâs proof that what I said is true!â
âYou dare to say that!â
Hailey was so angry that she raised her hand to slap Yeager, but he caught her wrist.
âYou dare to say you didnât hide anything from Ms. Shultz?â

Eleanor snapped back to reality, seeing Yeager gripping Haileyâs wrist, and pushed Yeager away.
âWhether they hid anything from me or not, itâs none of your business!â
Eleanor clenched her fists and approached Yeager.
âDonât think you can use Garett to get at us!â
Her pale face had regained some color, as if she had accepted the truth and was ready to face it headâon.
âYeager, youâve murdered, framed people, deceived Hailey, hidden the past, drugged her, youâre not innocent. What right do you have to drive a wedge between us?!â
Eleanorâs accusation made Yeager clench his fists tighter.
âNo matter what you say, Bernard deliberately hid the truth from you. Heâs waiting for Garett to die!â
