No matter what he did, no matter how hard he tried, he was always one step too late.
Someone always took his place by Arabella’s side.
Telling him, again and again, that to Arabella, he was now just an unnecessary person.
Two paramedics got out of the 911 ambulance and asked the family to help lift Franklin into the ambulance.
Jayceon stepped forward to stop Arabella, saying, “The child is still young. You take him in the car, I’ll go with the ambulance.”
Arabella glanced at Edmundo, who was a tear-streaked mess in her arms, and didn’t refuse.
In the early hours of the morning, Franklin was moved into a hospital room.
Arabella placed the sleeping Edmundo on the bed in the companion room and came out.
She said to Jayceon, “Thank you for your help, Mr. Melendez. You can go home now.”
Faced with Arabella’s coldness, Jayceon felt himself starting to break.
He couldn’t help but ask her, “Arabella, in what capacity are you thanking me on his behalf?”
Arabella gave Jayceon a cold glance and didn’t answer his question.
Jayceon saw that Arabella was avoiding the topic.
Suppressing his feelings, he tried to reason with her. “You have work tomorrow. I’ll take you home to rest.”
Arabella refused coldly, “No need. I’m staying here to take care of the two of them.”
Jayceon’s expression darkened. “If you’re really that worried, I can hire two nurses right away. He’s a grown man; it’s not appropriate for you to be here taking care of him.

Arabella said, “Mr. Group and I are both single. What’s so inappropriate about me taking care of him?”
Jayceon’s Adam’s apple bobbed uncontrollably, but he couldn’t utter a single word.
He regretted it even in his dreams.
Regretted what he had done back then.
That incident was the dead knot between him and Arabella that could never be untied.
Arabella reminded Jayceon, “Jayceon, in a few more months, I’ll have known you for twenty- seven years. With Auntie Clemons and Kim around, I don’t want this to get too ugly.”
Arabella said, “Jayceon, don’t forget what you promised me on the island!”
The two looked at each other in silence.
Jayceon managed to say, “Get some rest.”
After Jayceon turned and left the room, Arabella immediately closed the door.
Jayceon stood outside the door, watching through the glass window as Arabella kept vigil by Franklin’s bedside, carefully moistening his lips with a cotton swab.
Jayceon watched Arabella’s gentle and careful movements.
It was as if a sharp dagger was twisting in his heart, the pain making it harder and harder for him. to breathe.
They had known each other for over twenty years, childhood sweethearts.
He knew full well she was stubborn, a neat freak, and cared about him so much.
Why did he still go and take care of Georgina?
Jayceon slammed his fist into the hospital corridor wall.
His fist slowly fell, leaving a heavy streak of blood on the wall.
Over an hour later, when Samuel and Blaire found Jayceon, he was already dead drunk.
Jayceon pointed his injured right hand at Blaire: “What are you doing here?”
