Chapter 1140 Will got his hand treated licketyâsplit, so no serious aftermath. Heâs now in tipâtop shape and just needs a bit more R&R before heâs sprung from the hospital The moment Will saw Liana coming in, he shooed his parents away from his bedside. They got the hint, gave Liana a onceâover, and left the two of them to chinwag while they cleared out.
Liana strolled over, sitting in front of Willâs hospital bed, âHowâs the day? Can you move your hand?â
Will nodded, looking at Liana with soft eyes, âMy hand will be back to normal, donât sweat it...â
Liana held Willâs hand, gave it a onceâover, and seeing he was on the mend, responded, âYou will recover, itâs just that you might not be able to do surgeries anymore.â
Will didnât give a hoot, âAfter some time at the Laurence Groupâs pharmaceutical company, I found Iâm more into drug development than surgery.â
Liana still felt a pang. âYouâre a helluva surgeon. Itâs a damn shame you canât operate anymore.â
Hearing this, Willâs eyes lit up with a faint smile, âWhether itâs being a doctor or developing drugs, itâs all about healing people. As long as I can save lives, thereâs nothing to regret.â
The last sentence yanked Liana back to the past. She just froze....
Eighteenâyearâold Tyler had said the same thing. Back then, he was leaning against an escalator, hands in his pockets, quietly listening to the Howells debate his career path.
Tylerâs grandpa insisted that Tyler, being the descendant of a medical family, should not waste his talent and must follow in their footsteps. But Hackett thought Tylerâs knack for computers made him a hot commodity in finance. They argued nonâstop, with Hackett eventually winning out, leaving Tylerâs grandpa fit to be tied.
Tyler consoled his grandpa, âNo matter what I do, I can still help heal people. As long as I can save lives, thereâs nothing to regret.â
Only because Tyler promised Hackett he would choose finance in college, Hackett decided to groom Tyler as his successor in the Howell family business A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
ï¤Chapter 1139 Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END)
ï¤Chapter 1765 (END)
Sadly, before Tyler could even graduate high school, he made an irreversible mistake and violated her, leading to him being ostracized by all the Howells. and losing his right to inherit the family business.
If not for that, Tyler might have followed his grandpaâs footsteps into medicine, instead of becoming a whiz in finance and leading the Howells to greater heights in business.
Liana told herself that Tylerâs downfall was his own doing and not her problem. When Will asked if something was up, she shook her head, âIâm fine, just a little spaced out, probably because Iâm tired.â
Will studied Lianaâs face, trying to read any changes, but she seemed eerily calm, seemingly unfazed by Tylerâs death.
After a while, he asked the deepâinâthought Liana, âLiana, as I mentioned before, once Tyler is taken care of, we can patch things up. Now that heâs gone, thereâs nothing between us anymore, can we... get back together?â
Ever since they got hitched and Liana was whisked away by Tyler only to be dumped back, she and Will have been on the outs, with no reconciliation in sight.
Will didnât push Liana. He just figured Tyler was the roadblock, so he decided to take care of Tyler first, protecting Liana and hoping to rekindle their romance. But boy, he didnât see this coming.
He knew it might not be the best time to propose getting back together, but he couldnât help himself. He had this nagging feeling that something was shifting since Tylerâs death, but he just couldnât put his finger on it...
