Chapter 274 Cry Louder, Maybe He’ll Care

John continued, “She only has me in her heart. Sooner or later, she’ll come back to me! Laly, I’m giving you one last chance. Are you going to keep fighting with me and use James to provoke me, or are your coming home with me?”

From the moment she learned that John and Eha were getting married, Lily had put john firmly in her past. Why would I waste my time trying to make him jealous with another man! He’s not even worth that much effort.

She met his eyes, cold and sharp with sarcasm. “John, I thought I made myself very clear. I meant it when 1 said I don’t like you. I meant it when I broke up with you. Someone like you, greedy, indecent, disgusting. how dare you compare yourself to my husband? You’re not even fit to shine his shoes.”

“Lily“”

John’s face turned ashen, the blood rising in his eyes as if the world might bleed with him. He knew Lily had grown more and more defiant, always trying to provoke him-

But he never imagined the day would come when she’d say he wasn’t even good enough to shine James‘

For someone who’d always been certain Lily would return to him, this sudden flicker of doubt hit hard, shaking his confidence, gnawing at his pride. Could it be that she’s clinging to James not to spite me, but because she’s actually fallen for him?

The fear of losing her, of her loving someone else, burrowed deep into his chest, mixing with fury and desperation. In that moment, he completely forgot he was still holding Elsa in his arm

Right now, all he wanted was to drag Lily back with him–to keep her close, to make sure no other man could touch her. To keep her where she belonged–by his side.

“John”

Without warning, Elsa slipped from his arms and fell to the floor.

The ground was hard and cold; she felt like her bones were about to crack on impact.

Her prideful heart was instantly swallowed by a flood of humiliation. She couldn’t believe it–she had just coughed up blood, looked so fragile and beautiful–and he’d let her fall to the ground like this, in front of everyone, completely disgraced.

“It hurts it hurts so bad…”

The constant humiliation that night made her taste nothing but rust in her mouth. But Elsa was far too proud to throw a hit in front of everyone, to scream and cry and blame John. All she could do was furrow her brows and cry out in pain.

“Lizzy!”

Sumon hadn’t expected John is actually drop Elsa. When he saw her lying there, pale and trembling, he was both furious and heartbroken

He rushed forward, grabbed Johm by the collar, and punched him square in th

your damn mind? Lizzy’s seriously ill, and you dare hurt her like this? She’s coughing up blood again, take her to the hospital now!”

Stunned by the punch, John finally seemed to realize what he’d just done.

Seeing Elsa curled up on the floor, coughing up blood in agony, he was overwhelmed with guilt.

He thought back to how Lily had stayed by his side for four years, risking her life again and again to save him. Love that deep didn’t just disappear. She must have been pushing him with James just to force him to abandon Elsa completely. Lily wouldn’t leave me, not really

Fearing something might truly happen to Elsa, he didn’t dare waste another second. He scooped her up into his arms and rushed downstairs Cradled tightly against his chest, Elsa still felt humiliated–but also quietly relieved.

As long as he was taking her away, the medical team James had summoned wouldn’t get the chance to examine her. She could keep using this supposed illness to keep both John and Simon wrapped around her finger.

She needed to get pregnant with John’s child as soon as possible

Once she was pregnant, she’d have the doctor tell him that her so–called terminal illness had just been a misdiagnosis.

By then, even if he had doubts, he wouldn’t be able to walk away. Not with her carrying his child. He’d have to take full responsibility,

That wretched Lily wouldn’t stand a chance of tearing their little family apart again.

Watching Elsa cough up blood at will–fall unconscious, then wake whenever convenient–James became increasingly convinced that her alleged cancer diagnosis was fake.

Still, he didn’t stop John from taking her away.

After all, there was more than one way to expose someone for faking an illness.

If she had managed to bribe the doctors at that private hospital into lying for her, then his people would just make those doctors talk. He’d gather the hard evidence soon enough.

But he wouldn’t release it right away. Because as long as Elsa kept clinging to John with this fake illness, John would have less time to bother Lily.

Lily had said that once she and his old classmate got married, they wanted to settle down in a peaceful, quiet town far from all this chaos. If James exposed Elsa now, John–who was clearly unhinged–would definitely go all out to destroy Lily’s future, maybe even hurt the man she loved. There would guard against that.

be no way to

James wanted Lily to have a happy life with that classmate.

So he would wait until they were married, until they had left this mess behind and reached the peaceful life they wanted

Only then would he release the evidence that Elsa had faked her illness.
