Chapter 51 The Former Marion Is Dead
The elevator had reached the first floor. Marion found a corner with fewer people and planned to wait
there for the driver from home to pick her up. However, Jameson persistently followed her. Once they
reached the corner, his eyes visibly brightened with hope. “Marion.”
Jameson held onto Marion’s wheelchair, intending to crouch and talk to her. However, Marion tapped
the CT report in her hand onto his. “Don’t touch me!” Although the report was thin and rolled up, the
impact was not painful. Yet, the disdain in Marion’s eyes was evident.
Feeling as if a hammer had struck his chest, Jameson took a step back and
refrained from touching her wheelchair. Only then did he crouch down in front of her. “Marion, can you
look at me?”
Marion looked at him, and for some reason, she felt devoid of any emotion despite having liked it so
much in the past. If she had to describe it, there was perhaps only a trace of nostalgia.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNostalgia for the once gentle older brother, who had somehow transformed into what he was now. The
past twelve years felt like a blur to her.
She released her tightly held phone and calmed herself. “Jameson, for the sake of our twelve years of
acquaintance, don’t ruin whatever feelings I still have for you.

Her gentle voice slowly uttered the words with a touch of regret. It was calm, yet mildly cruel.
Jameson staggered, and almost fell to the ground. He managed to steady himself by placing his hands
by his side and avoided an embarrassing situation. After regaining his composure, he crouched down
again and raised four fingers. “40 days.”
When he spoke again, his voice was hoarse. “Did you fall in love with him in just 40 days?”
“Why don’t you say instead that ‘in 40 days, I ended everything between us‘?”
“Marion-”
Jameson looked at her, his eyes were red.
Marion swallowed slightly and turned her head away. “The Marion who loved you died the moment that
car hit her and you left without looking back. The Marion I used to be died on the day I once looked
forward to. So you can say it’s a perfect
Chapter 51 The Former Marion Is Dead
ending.”

Jameson seemed to want to say something more, but Marion’s phone rang. Unwilling to waste any
more time on him, she answered Evan’s call. With one hand, she pushed the wheelchair away from
Jameson and made her way to the entrance of the hospital.
Evan was already waiting for her. Marion pushed the wheelchair and used the wheelchair–accessible
path to exit. When he saw that, Evan hurried over, “Miss
Marion smiled. “It’s okay, Mr. Brody, I can manage!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEvan hesitated momentarily as he lowered his hands and watched her carefully.
Although Marion was smiling, the smile seemed forced and artificial, as if it had been pulled and
stretched. Her eyes were still red.
Evan did not know what had happened, and his position did not allow him to ask too many questions.
Marion pushed the wheelchair to the car, got in, and asked Evan to put the wheelchair in the trunk.
The car slowly left the hospital and made its way back to the Cartier residence. Marion looked out the
window and wiped a tear from her left cheek. She would never shed tears for Jameson again.
Marion put down her phone and Marion faced the window. The corners of her mouth curved into a
smile.
She had to smile.
‘Marion, from now on, you must laugh heartily!‘ she said to herself.
