Chapter 5 The Noble Lady Who Stole Away
Chapter 5 The Noble Lady Who Stole Away
Alyssa looked out the window, and her tone was extremely calm, as if she were the outsider in the
matter.
"You should know that I don't like you, and even hate you."
"The only reason I married you was that I didn't want to upset Grandpa. Now you can see that
Grandpa's time is running out, so there's no reason in continuing the marriage between us."
"It's better for both of us if we separate sooner."
Only then did Alyssa turn around and look as indifferent as if she were looking at a stranger.
"Here's a million. Take the money and go. That's enough for you to have a good life for a long time, as
long as you don't fool around anymore."
Duncan's face sank.
He had emptied the Spirit in his body to heal Grandpa.
But not only did the others not believe him, but even Alyssa also didn't trust him and gave him money
to leave.
Duncan was silent for a long moment, then suddenly smiled with relief.
"I wasn't just messing around. If nothing goes wrong, it won't take Grandpa more than a few minutes to
wake up."
Seeing that he was still arguing, Alyssa was both furious and anxious. She couldn't help but raise her
voice and almost shout at the top of her lungs.
"How much longer are you going to keep this up!"
"Grandpa is suffering from a heart attack. Do you think you're God, and he'll wake up when you pray?!"
"Duncan, you're letting me down!"
Seeing that Alyssa was extremely disappointed, Duncan felt a stabbing pain in his heart and said with a
bitter smile, "Don't be angry. You don't have to be mad at a loser like me, right?"
"Since you don't like me, I'll be leaving the Kent family, as you wish. Just get the divorce papers done
and let me know by then."
"By the way, this is for you."
Duncan smiled bitterly and pulled a yellow charm folded into a triangle from his pocket.
Seeing this, Alyssa faintly stared, then heard Duncan say, "I got this for you. You take it. I'm leaving
now!"
Alyssa was distracted and, coupled with her dislike of Duncan, could only hold it in her hand.
Only now did Duncan turn and stride away, thinking, ‘That’s okay. Just let my love for you in my
previous life be buried deep in my heart.’
Alyssa held her bank card in the air.
She stared blankly at Duncan's back as he left. She thought she would be happy, but then she felt as if
she had lost something very important and her heart was empty.
Just then, Corin came rushing out from inside, "Sis, come in. Grandpa ..."
Alyssa immediately came back to her senses and said anxiously, "What's wrong with grandpa?"
Corin said excitedly, "Grandpa is awake!"
Alyssa's heart jolted and she hurried into the ward.
Sure enough, the old man, who had been lying down, had really woken up and was sitting on the bed.
"Am I walking through hell again?"
The old man was Bruce Kent. He smiled brightly, seeming to have long since taken life and death easy,
and turned his attention to Jason.
"Dr. Hall, was it you who saved me? I will never forget this!"
Jason shook his head and said, "I am not capable of such a thing. Your condition is very serious and
can no longer be cured by using normal Chinese medical skills. Just now, you were nearly exhausted
and already in a severe coma ... I didn't expect you to miraculously wake up either!"
He said in surprise.
He had just diagnosed Bruce and found that not only had Bruce woken up, but his pulse was as strong
as if he had been rejuvenated.
This struck Jason as very strange. After all, Bruce was old and his body function was declining.
It was a medical miracle that he was in such good spirits!
"Not you?"
Bruce was slightly stunned and puzzled, "Then who has such brilliant medical skills? Donald, you have
to thank that highly-skilled doctor for me!"
Donald laughed bitterly, "Dad, how could there be so many highly-skilled doctors? You woke up on your
own!"Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Yes, Dad, God must have blessed you and let you wake up because he couldn't bear to see you leave
us!"
A woman at the side came up, and as she spoke, she folded her hands and chanted.
Jason was relatively calm. This was indeed an odd phenomenon. Suddenly, he remembered Duncan
and said, "Did the young man really save Grandpa?"
"What young man?" Bruce asked.
"Let me tell you ..."
Immediately, someone came over and told him what Duncan had done.
Corin seized the opportunity to speak ill of Duncan, "Don't I know what Duncan is? He didn't even
graduate from college. He doesn't know shit about medicine."
Jason laughed, "Yeah, I've been practicing medicine for many years and I've never seen someone who
can revive a comatose person by just patting him a few times."
The others nodded in agreement with Jason's words. After all, Duncan's reputation for being a loser
was deeply ingrained, and they didn't believe Duncan knew anything about medicine.
Alyssa's brow furrowed slightly as she remembered what Duncan had said earlier.
Could it be a coincidence?
Bruce asked Alyssa, "Alyssa, where's Duncan? Tell him to come over here. I'll ask him myself."
Alyssa pouted, finally hiding the fact that she was divorcing Duncan, and smiled reluctantly, "Duncan
had something to do and just left."
Corin added, "Well, he was just putting on an act here, saying he could cure grandpa. Now that we've
found out, and he is ashamed to stay, so he left, right?"
Bruce let out a sigh. He was just trying to defend Duncan. Now that Duncan wasn't there, so he didn't
say anything more.
He had watched Duncan grow up and knew what kind of man Duncan was.
Duncan was on a bus at the moment.
‘Whether Alyssa and I divorce or not, Grandpa has been so gracious to me that I can't just let it go!’
‘As for Alyssa, let the past go with the wind.’
Duncan looked out the car window at the night scene and smiled with relief.
He wasn't exactly a sorrowful man by nature. Since Alyssa had chosen to get a divorce, he would just
accept it.
"Excuse me, please ...."
At that moment, a nice voice that sounded like a cuckoo's chirp rang out.
Duncan turned around and saw a very beautiful girl standing in front of him.
The girl was in her twenties, with long hair, pretty eyes and eyebrows, and pink lips, which added a bit
of charm to her.
She was wearing a dress that wrapped around her perfect figure, looking very hot.
With an LV bag around her waist and an exquisite Patek Philippe watch on her wrist, it was clear from a
glance that she was either rich or respectable.
But she was panting as if she had just caught a bus.
Even though Duncan was used to seeing beautiful women, his eyes lit up.
But he only took one look at her and then recovered and moved out of the way. He wondered in his
heart how such a person could take the bus.
"Thanks!"
The beautiful woman thanked him and sat down in the inside seat. Then she looked out of the car
window and waved rather smugly to the back.
Duncan subconsciously glanced over his shoulder and saw several men in suits dressed as
bodyguards hurrying this way behind them.
However, the bus had already started, leaving a trail of car exhaust behind.
"Could it be a noble lady who secretly ran away from her home?"
Duncan thought to himself and glanced at the girl with curiosity.
