The Bigshot Married Himself to the Heiress
Chapter 1367 - 1307: Unbelievable Discoveries (2)
Kiya wasn’t sure if he had actually fallen asleep; there were all kinds of sounds in his ears, and he even felt like he could hear Paige Desmond’s breathing, occasionally accompanied by chaotic footsteps.
It was the sound of the doctor rushing to save a patient, perhaps another bright life had vanished.
The actual sleep time was only about ten minutes. Kiya felt someone calling him, bewildered, as if it were a dream, yet not a dream.
"Kiya... Kiya, wake up..."
A gentle voice, like a feather brushing past his heart, seemed to make him open his eyes, "Paige?"
"Kiya, I have to go, take care of yourself, take care of the children..."
"Go? Where?"
"..."
"No! You can’t go!"
Kiya saw Paige Desmond in white, surrounded by a layer of light. He reached out to grab her hand, but his hand passed through her body, leaving Kiya shocked as he looked at the woman in front of him.
The woman smiled, "Kiya, I’m dead..."
The woman’s body became transparent right before his eyes, "No! You won’t die! I won’t allow you to die!"
Kiya reached out to embrace her, but he ended up falling off the chair, lying on the ground in disarray and covered in sweat.
Was it a dream?
"Sultan, what’s wrong?" Gavin came to support him, but Kiya pushed away Gavin’s hand and stood up, running towards the Intensive Care Unit.
Kiya’s heart was pounding, the frantic rhythm shattered his usual calm and composure.
In this state, he couldn’t enter the ICU. He stared through the thick glass at the woman lying on the hospital bed, the machines still operating normally...
It was a dream!
Only then did Kiya confirm that it was a dream. He let out a long sigh of relief.
He propped his hands against the glass, smiling, "Haha... it’s a dream, it’s fake..."
It was a dream!
It was a dream!
Even if Paige Desmond could bear leaving him, she couldn’t bear leaving their young children.
Gary came by with a meal box, saying to Kiya, "Sultan, you haven’t eaten yet, you should try to eat some. If the queen wakes up and you’re down, what then?"
Only then did Kiya remember he hadn’t had a drop to drink since yesterday.
Kiya said, "I’m not hungry."
Gavin also advised, "Sultan, you should eat a bit, the queen needs you to take care of her."
Kiya’s throat felt parched from not drinking water for a long time, as if it were smoking.
"Hmm." Kiya drank some water and ate a few bites of rice, but his throat was dry, and he couldn’t swallow. He handed the meal box to Gavin and half-leaned against the window.
Adrian Desmond came over to find Kiya. Just as Kiya was about to greet him, Adrian threw a punch, knocking Kiya defenseless to the ground.
"Mr. Desmond, what are you doing?" Gavin and Gary, the two brothers, prepared to retaliate against Adrian but were stopped by Kiya.
"Adrian, I know you’re hurting, but I’m hurting even more..." Kiya also needed to vent, standing up and swinging a punch at Adrian.
Adrian didn’t dodge and suddenly said, "The car accident wasn’t an accident, it was murder!"
Kiya’s fist stopped midway.
"What did you say?"
"The accident wasn’t accidental; it was a deliberate attempt to obliterate! The mastermind behind it is your mother—the Queen Mother!"
Adrian’s words startled everyone present.
Kiya was stunned, as if struck by lightning. He couldn’t believe it and shook his head, saying, "You’re lying! I won’t believe your nonsense."
"..."
"You won’t destroy my relationship with my mother; I won’t believe your nonsense."
Adrian threw the leather bag onto Kiya, saying, "Kiya, you need to give my sister an explanation!"
"..."
"If you don’t give my sister an explanation, I’ll go to the Queen Mother personally to seek an explanation!"
Adrian glanced at his sister in the Intensive Care Unit. If she could move, he would have taken her back to Sileria City long ago.
However, given the situation, Paige Desmond couldn’t stay any longer.
"Once Paige can move, I’ll take her back to Sileria City! No one will stop me, including you."
He always thought Paige Desmond was merely being wronged, but he didn’t expect the conflict between the Queen Mother and Paige Desmond was so severe that the Queen Mother had murderous intent.
Kiya, trembling, took out various pieces of evidence from the leather bag... He couldn’t believe his mother would kill Paige.
Paige was his wife, the mother of his two children. How could his mother do such a thing?
He struggled to finish reading the materials Adrian had brought, then found himself speechless.
Gavin and Gary were equally shocked.
The Queen Mother killing Paige Desmond; one was Kiya’s biological mother, the other was the woman he loved dearly. Such a thing was too cruel for Kiya.
Kiya muttered to himself, "...I know Mother killed those women, I’ve been making excuses for her, now she actually moved against Paige..."
Gavin said, "Sultan, could it be a misunderstanding? How could the Queen Mother kill the queen?"
Kiya said, "Gavin, go investigate Charlene and Orville Blackburn..." He hoped Paige was wrong, he hoped the evidence he held was inaccurate.
Perhaps, it was a misunderstanding.
If his mother really loved him, how could she kill the woman he loved?
Kiya couldn’t accept this, he would rather believe it was an accident, that Paige had simply been in a car accident, just a simple car accident.
Kiya’s heart was tortured.
...
Paige Desmond stayed in the Intensive Care Unit for three days, still not waking up. Kiya never left her side, spending his nights on the long bench in the corridor.
Actually, he couldn’t sleep at all.
His body was exhausted, yet his mind was exceptionally alert.
Every time he fell asleep, he’d dream of Paige leaving.
"Why haven’t you gone home yet? I told you, the ICU has on-duty doctors, you’ll be notified immediately if anything happens." It was still the same nurse talking to Kiya.
"If she doesn’t wake up, I won’t leave." Kiya said.
The nurse knew this man’s stubbornness, so she didn’t say much more and went to check the rooms.
Gavin quickly completed the tasks Kiya had instructed, returning to report.
Kiya saw Gavin’s hesitant expression and understood. He asked, "Did the Queen Mother really try to murder Paige?"
"Yes!" Gavin explained, "I also went to find Vincent Grant, and Vincent also admitted it."
"Why didn’t Vincent Grant tell me earlier?"
"Vincent Grant just found out, too." Gavin explained.
Kiya was devastated, "Why would she do this?"
This question, Gavin couldn’t answer, nor was he able to.
Kiya wiped his face, pain was evident.
If Paige learned of this, it would be the end for them.
