Chapter 467: Chapter 467: A Conversation with Clayton Howard

After all, this time it happened because he was trying to save the Young Madam. How could he say to the Young Master: Ah! Quickly let go of the Young Madam and let her fall!

Like that?

…It would be weird if he wasn’t struck dead by the Young Master!

Clayton Howard couldn’t help but despise Doctor Gavin for making such an unreasonable request!

Emily Walker, sitting beside the bed, knew deep down that Baron Stuart had done this in order not to let her fall.

Once again, she heard Baron Stuart’s deep voice in her ears: I’m sorry, I couldn’t hold on to your hand the last time.

It seemed to be the first time this man, who had always been arrogant, said the words “I’m sorry” to her.

It was hard for her to imagine these three words coming out of his mouth, Baron Stuart.

I’m sorry, I couldn’t hold on to your hand last time.

Suddenly, Emily seemed to remember something and looked up at Clayton.

“The last time, when I fell from the North River Building, it seemed like someone caught me?” Before hitting the ground, she vaguely felt that a pair of hands had tightly locked her to a warm chest at her waist.

However, before she could open her eyes to see who it was, she lost consciousness due to severe pain in her abdomen.

Hearing this, Clayton raised his eyes.

Recently, he also knew that Young Madam had been constantly blaming Young Master for his coldness and ruthlessness, and had blamed him for not being able to save the child. But she didn’t know that everything the Young Master had done was to protect her and the child better.

It was just that, in the end, he didn’t expect the Young Madam to fall accidentally.

“Yes, it was the Young Master.” Clayton calmly said, “When you fell, he didn’t hesitate to jump after you.”

He had never seen the Young Master risk his life for a woman like this, without any hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Emily couldn’t help but be surprised. He didn’t hesitate to jump? From such a high floor?

“Why would he…”

“Young Madam, forgive me for being blunt. Actually, that day, the Young Master just wanted to buy time for us to set up all the life-saving measures. He pretended to be cold to make Milton Modesto let go of you willingly. If the Young Master had really lowered his head and let Milton Modesto manipulate him at that time, both of you might have lost your lives. What Milton Modesto wanted was to take revenge against the Young Master. If the Young Master didn’t resist, he would probably beat him half to death, and when he had no power to fight back, he would push you down in front of him.”

Indeed, that was what Milton Modesto had been thinking, and Baron Stuart had guessed it clearly.

However, what he hadn’t expected was that Emily would fall from the building because of his act of pretending to be cold.

Clayton’s words made Emily fall into a daze.

So, that was it. This man had never taken her life and death lightly, and had always protected her with his own life.

If he had really bowed his head in front of Milton Modesto and everything had developed like in the TV dramas, Baron Stuart would definitely have been beaten until he was covered in blood and had no strength left.

By then, Milton Modesto would have really pushed her down in front of him, because that was his original idea for revenge.

And at that time, when this man, who protected her with his life, really saw her being pushed down dozens of floors with his own eyes, how desperate he must have been.

The feeling of watching his woman being pushed down the building while being powerless to do anything, Emily felt unbearable pain just thinking about it.
