Chapter 1062 The Departed

"Dad, I know I was wrong. If I knew that falling in love with him would hurt you like this, I wouldnever have started with him."

Freya thought that she could live without Hayden, but she couldn't live without her father, whocared for her the most.

Why did fate punish her like this?

She had already decided to leave Hayden, so why did fate take away the person closest to her?"Silly girl, there's no right or wrong in this matter. It's just the way things happen.”

Duncan embraced this situation with more calmness than Freya.

Although Hayden bore some responsibility for this, he wasn't at fault.

Duncan wanted to tell this to Freya, but his breathing became increasingly rapid, and everythingaround him turned pitch black.

"Dad!" Freya was terrified, gripping Duncan's hand tightly, and cried out in anguish, "Dad, don'tleave me..."

Duncan wanted to continue staying by his precious daughter's side and be her everlasting harbor,but he was so tired, in so much pain, and couldn't hold on any longer.

Tears of reluctance streamed down Duncan's face.

In his last gasp, Duncan used all his strength to say to Freya, "Freya, no matter what you do, Dad willsupport you..."

As his words trailed off, the instrument emitted a "beep" sound.

The medical staff quickly came forward to examine him, then announced, "The patient has passedaway. I'm sorry..."

Hearing that, Freya felt her world crumble.

No matter how others tried to persuade her, Freya clung tightly to Duncan's hand and refused to letgo.

"No, I won't allow you to take him away.

"He cooked food for me just yesterday. How could he possibly be dead?"

The medical staff couldn't do their work and could only ask Freya's family to help separate Freyafrom Duncan.

Watching her father covered in a white sheet, Freya collapsed to the ground...

After that, Freya seemed to become numb to everything around her.

Freya felt as though she and others lived in the same space, but there was a layer of film separatingthem. She couldn't hear the sounds of the outside world, and everything felt unreal.

In just one week, Freya lost a significant amount of weight.

Everything felt like a dream to her, and she wished to wake up from this nightmare as soon aspossible...

On the other side, due to spending the entire night soaked in cold water, Hayden's arms becameinfected with knife wounds. Upon leaving the hotel, he developed a high fever and wassubsequently admitted to the hospital.

For a week, his condition had been fluctuating, with only brief moments of clarity.

When his condition finally improved slightly, Hayden immediately searched for his phone."Where's my phone? Bring it to me!" Hayden commanded his assistant.

Hayden had been in the hospital for several days without any news or contact from Freya. He wasworried that she would be anxious, scared, or overthinking about something.

But when the assistant brought the phone, Hayden realized that there were no missed calls orunread messages from Freya on his phone.

"Did you touch my phone?" Hayden angrily stared at his assistant.

The assistant shook his head, saying, "No, Mr. Gollust. I did charge your phone these past few days,but I didn't deal with any of the messages. Besides, I don't know your unlock code.”

The assistant had been with Hayden for many years and had always been loyal to him.

Even when Hayden left the Gollust Group, the assistant gave up a high salary to continue followingHayden.

So Hayden trusted the assistant's words.

However, Hayden looked at his phone in bewilderment. "Then why hasn't Freya called me evenonce?"
