Regaining consciousness in the intensive care unit, the wealthy man overheard his wife’s conversation on the phone…

Grace’s languid voice came from behind the stranger. James paled and clenched his fists painfully. Grace understood everything instantly and, without being embarrassed by the presence of her lover, dropped to her knees.

James, please forgive me. It’s not what you think, I swear. I thought you had only a few days left.

The doctor didn’t make any prognosis and miracles don’t happen. Or do they, darling? James ground his teeth and uttered through gritted teeth, I’ll give you five minutes to gather your things and leave this house. Grace’s lover straightened his powerful shoulders and looked mockingly at the homeowner.

Listen, unfinished businessman, go get yourself treated and don’t interfere with normal people’s lives. It’s a pity you didn’t crash back then. James clenched the handle of his cane so tightly that his fingers turned white.

You won’t have to wait, you bastard. You thought you buried me alive, but I survived against all odds and I’m sure the accident was staged. I’ll make sure to uncover the truth.

At the mention of this, the bully immediately wilted and sadly wandered deeper into the house to change. The fairy tale of a rainbow relationship with Grace ended as abruptly as it began and now it was time for payback for everything that had happened Of course, James couldn’t prove Grace’s involvement in the accident, but instead he deprived her of means of existence and blocked all her cards and accounts. Once upon a time, James had pulled Grace out of provincial obscurity, doing everything to make her feel like a businesswoman.

But after such betrayal, he couldn’t forgive the traitor. Long ago, he saved Grace from criminal prosecution for fraud she allegedly didn’t commit. In reality, she was a hardcore criminal who only cared about enriching herself.

Now, due to new circumstances, James called the investigator again and said that his ex-wife’s case should be reinvestigated. Upon hearing this, Grace grabbed a heavy vase to hit her husband on the head, but Erica was vigilant and intercepted the fraudster’s hand in time. At the same time, several police cars pulled up to the house and officers in plain clothes, armed to the teeth, stepped out.

For Grace and her lover, it was all over. James, on the other hand, looked at his handcuffed ex-wife with a sad gaze and collapsed from exhaustion. Perhaps if Erica hadn’t been there, he would have fallen into a coma again, but instead, he gently sank to the ground, supported by the caring hands of the young nurse.

James didn’t hear the wail of the ambulance anymore and woke up only the next morning, startled by the muffled voices. But this time, it wasn’t his wife discussing his will with her lover. It was his loyal and trustworthy friends, the janitor Henry, the dishwasher Emma, and the homeless guy Connor.

Upon closer inspection, the businessman immediately recognized the street hero who pulled him out of the burning car, wishing to remain anonymous. Embracing Emma by the shoulders, Connor haltingly explained that he had decided to disappear out of fear of excessive attention. As he listened to Connor, James found himself thinking that he definitely wanted to see him as the manager of his restaurant, a sentiment shared by Emma, who had earned a promotion to waitress or even assistant chef through her diligent hard work.

However, she could choose whatever she needed. In any case, James was ready to fulfill any of their wishes. But first, he wanted to publicly confess his feelings to Erica, which had ignited in his heart during all the recent trials.

Tears glistened in the nurse’s eyes and her response elicited a storm of applause from everyone present. Yes, I agree, but please, in the future, stay away from hospitals, she said. Connor smiled and subtly winking at Emma, hinted very unmistakably that he was in solidarity with the young businessman and ready to become the father of her four children or perhaps even five, who knows.

If there was mutual respect and love, everything else would fall into place, weddings, pregnancies and the joyful laughter of children.
