When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1402 Spend My Life Peacefully

"But Grandpa, you must keep this matter a secret," said Jonathan with a serious face.

If Vivian realized that he had taught Vincent to feign illness and deceive them, she would undoubtedly tear him to shreds.

Truth be told, he was quite helpless too.

George, for reasons unknown, had taken a liking to Vivian. He was intent on having her as his granddaughter-in-law, but was at a loss for how to make it happen.

To Jonathan's surprise, Vincent entrusted him with this daunting task and asked for his assistance.

George had been incredibly kind to Jonathan. As he had to return the favor, he felt compelled to help. Thus, he came up with this bad idea.

In the bedroom, Zachary and Vivian lay together, not daring to utter a word for fear of being overheard.

"Go to sleep." Zachary coughed awkwardly.

"Okay." Vivian nodded, closing her eyes.

Unfortunately, sleep still eluded her completely.

Zachary was thinking the same thing. He decided that he would remove the surveillance devices George had placed in his room the first thing next morning. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to live his life peacefully. At this moment, in the Jaeger residence, Ernest was right by Jennifer's side.

Jennifer lay there, her body covered in injuries. A deep sense of guilt was apparent in her eyes as she said, "I'm sorry."

Ernest's eyes welled up with tears.

"Why are you apologizing to me? Why would you do something so foolish?"

Jennifer took a deep breath and uttered, "I wanted to leave this world so I wouldn't be a burden to you. If I die, you will be free to find the one you love."

It was then that Ernest understood why she had acted so impulsively. It was all because of what he had said.

Only death could separate the two of them.

"What kind of joke is this? The one I love is you. If you were to leave, how could I possibly find freedom?"

Ernest clasped her hand and gently pressed his lips to it.

"You're really naive. I only sought out Vivian to make it clear to her that we're never getting back together. I have no intentions of being with her."

He explained again, "You're the only one in my heart right now."

When Jennifer heard that, her eyes reddened.

""Is that so?"

She felt as though she was in a dream.

Ernest nodded earnestly. "Of course it's true. Can you please stop doing foolish things?"

Jennifer had contemplated jumping off the rooftop that day. Thankfully, someone had discovered her in time. However, during the rescue, she still sustained minor injuries.

en

Jennifer wasn't sure if he was truly sincere. However, upon hearing these words, she felt genuinely elated.

"Okay, okay," replied Jennifer, forcing a smile.

Finally, Ernest felt at ease. He gently embraced her. "Please don't ever do anything foolish again." Jennifer nodded.

She still harbored some unease within her, deeply afraid that this moment was nothing but an illusion. After ensuring she was resting, Ernest exited the room.

Greta and Bastian were both terrified. They sighed repeatedly in the living room.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have

agreed to let you marry her. Her

emotions are so unstable. She

almost got us into trouble," said

зим

Greta.

After hearing this, Ernest couldn't help but reprimand, "Mom, don't talk like this in the future." Greta rose to her feet. "Did you meet with Vivian today? What did she say? Did she regret the marriage?"

Greta had always felt that no one but Vivian was worthy of her son.

"I had already clarified everything with her. From now on, we both have our own families. There won't be anything else binding us together."

Greta was completely dumbfounded.

"But Jennifer isn't going to live much longer. She won't be able to bear you a child."

With a single glance, Ernest stopped her from saying anything further.

"Never speak carelessly in front of Jennie again. All I want now is to spend the rest of my life peacefully with her."
