Chapter 772 It&##x27;s Time for Me to Depart This Life

"I'm sorry, Tim, really sorry. If I can choose, I'd like to love you heart and soul. You're a good man, really
a good man. My biggest regret in life is not being with you. I am not worthy of you. I have betrayed your
trust and love. I can feel that you like me. Although it may not be love, but for my poor life, you are very
precious to me. I'm dying. I really can't bear to part with you. I can't bear to part with this world."

Maia cried so hard that she couldn't open her mouth.

Tim didn't know what to say.

He had a lot of things he wanted to ask. There were many things he couldn't understand, but now,
facing Maia who was breaking down, he couldn't say a word.

Maia continued.

"You know, when my parents died, I was just a teenage girl and my brother had congenital heart
disease. What could I do? I could only sell myself. I know it's very likely that I won't be able to control
my own life, but so what? As long as my brother is fine, I'm okay with that. I thought that it doesn’t
matter to live like this, but ever since I met you, ever since I fell in love with you, I've grown greedy. I
want my own life. I want to control my own destiny. But I can't escape. I can't escape. Tim, don't blame
me, okay? I know that I have done many wrong things that have upset you. I also know that I have
hidden many things from you and you are very angry with me. But please, forgive me, okay?"

"God had punished me. You are the most important person in my life and he took you from me. I used
to think that my younger brother was all I had. Until I meet you, I found that I had another people I
wanted to care about. Tim, the time we spent with each other are the happiest days of my life. After I
die, forget about me, get married and have children with someone who truly loves you. I sincerely hope
you can be happy."

Maia's tears fell on Tim's shoulders, burning him fiercely.



Tim's eyes were warm and even carried with sadness.

"How could we get to this point? You never believed in me. If you trusted me, you should have turned
to me and told me everything you've been through. Maybe things would turn out differently. But Maia,
you always treat me like an outsider. You keep saying you love me, but you never let me into your
world, into your heart. Do you really love me?"

Tim's voice was hoarse, and what he said made Maia cry even more.

"You don't understand. There are some things you really don't understand. But it’s too late to explain
anything now. Tim, keep an eye on your stepmother. That's all I can say. Also, I'll leave my brother to
you. I know I'm shameless, but what can I do? I've spent my entire life finding a good man like you. So I
can only count on you. I admit that I played on your kindness. I also admit that I am despicable. I used
my own death to ask you to help my younger brother, but I really have no other choice. I am despicable
and shameless, but this is my last request. Tim, from now on, no one will plot against you anymore. "

Hearing that, Tim was rather sad.

"Have a rest. The doctor said that you can live for a few more days if you rest."

"What's the difference between living a few more days and dying now? There's no difference. Tim, can
you help me call Nicole in?"

"What do you want to do?"

Tim immediately became nervous.

Seeing this, Maia felt very uncomfortable.

"I'm already like this. What else can I do? When can you treat me in the same way as you treat her?"



"Nicole can be honest with me and fight for me. Can you do the same? Maia, don't expect others to
meet your expectations if you can't do it yourself."

Tim's words were rather harsh.

Maia couldn't take it anymore, but she still smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, I am not as honest with you as
Nicole. But she is your cousin. You can never be with her!"

This hit Tim's weak spot.

He said with a cold face, "I know. You don't need to remind me. Didn't you say something to her just
now? What are you going to call her for?"

"There's something I haven't said yet. Don't worry. I can't hurt her."

Maia felt even bitterer.

The man she loved the most was wholeheartedly protecting another woman. How could she feel good?

She knew that she didn't have much time left. Otherwise, she wouldn't bow her head to Nicole and ask
her love rivals to help her with things after she died.

God was so cruel that she couldn't count on anyone but Nicole in her last days.

She knew that Tim would not leave younger brother Trevin alone, but she needed a double protection.
In case Tim got into big trouble, at least Nicole and Samuel could still protect Trevin.

Maia thought that she had lived her entire life for others, for her younger brother, but what about
herself?

The only man she wanted was thinking about another woman.



Tim quietly looked at Maia who was at the gate of death, at her pale face, and at her weak appearance.
He sighed.

"Cut to the chase. Nicole is still busy."

"I know."

Seeing Tim agree, Maia smiled weakly.

When Tim came out, Nicole was calling Samuel.

She saw Tim come out and hurriedly said, "OK. If you're done with your work, hurry back. I'll also go
home later. Let's talk when we meet."

"Alright."

Samuel hung up the phone.

Nicole put away the phone. Seeing that Tim was upset, she patted his shoulder and said, "Life and
death are destined. You've done what you could."

"I know. You don't have to comfort me. I'm not that fragile yet. I just need some time to recover."

Hearing that, Nicole felt somewhat relieved.

"Sorry to make you experience an unpleasant relationship. I misjudged her back then."

"It has nothing to do with you. If I don't want to fall in love, no one can change me. Don’t blame
yourself. Besides, you did it for my own good. I understand. Maia calls you in. She has something to
say to you."

"She still has something to say to me?"



Nicole frowned.

"What else does she want to do?"

"I don't know. Be careful yourself. I know you have fighting skills, but who knows what tricks a
scheming woman like Maia will use? You're a simple person. That's a nice way to put it. To put it
bluntly, you're stupid. If you notice that something's wrong with her, you should leave immediately. Don't
care anything else."

Hearing that, Nicole was somewhat depressed.

"Is this the only image I have in your mind?"

"Then what other images do you have? Lady? Perhaps I used to think so, but now I think you're very
innocent."

"Alright, stop mocking me. I'm going in."

After saying that, Nicole opened the door and walked in.

Maia was very weak. When she saw Nicole enter, she felt it a little hard to open her eyes.

Seeing her like this, Nicole knew that Maia was really at the gate of death.

"What else do you want to tell me?"

She sat on the side of the bed.

Maia looked outside and saw that Tim did not follow up, so she whispered, "You should know who
sponsored me, right?"

"Bella, right?"



"Yes."

Maia nodded.

She had always misjudged Nicole.

She thought that Nicole was a rich lady, an incompetent woman who was spoiled by Samuel. However,
at this moment, she realized that she had misjudged Nicole.

Even without Samuel, Nicole was still a formidable woman. However, her gentleness and demeanor
covered her indomitable spirit up.

"When did you know?"

Maia looked at Nicole and asked.

"Not long ago."

Nicole didn't hide it from Maia. She was about to die, what's the point of keeping it from her?

She told Maia that Bella wanted Cornell to use his job as a doctor to kill her.

Maia's expression darkened.

"Cornell is also one of her men?"

"Yes, I know that not long ago. So, are you planning to stay here or leave? Whatever you want, I will
help you."

What Nicole said was from the bottom of her heart.

She had come here to transfer Maia, but she didn't expect that Maia was dying so quickly.



Maia was silent for a while and said, "I am a dying person. It doesn't matter where I am. Since they
want me to die, I will die. Only when I die will they feel at ease and reveal themselves. I know that you
will help Tim. The biggest regret in my life is not being with him. I want to do something for him near the
end of my life."

Nicole knew what she would do more or less.

"Think carefully. Even if you do this, Tim may not be very grateful to you. I won't appreciate your good
intentions."

"It doesn't matter anymore. Anyway, I am going to die. I just hope you can treat my brother well."

Maia treated his younger brother Trevin with sincerity and kindness.

Nicole nodded.

"Don't worry. Trevin is not as fragile as you think."

"I just don't want him to be involved into the darkness like me. My parents' death has something to do
with Jase. Thanks to your son, I knew that. However, my parents were not rehabilitated in the end.
When I die, I don't know if Tim will help investigate further."

Maia looked at Nicole. Nicole knew that she meant to get her involved.

"Don't worry. I will find out the truth for your parents, even for your brother."

"Thank you, Nicole. If I can start over, I really hope to become true friends with you. Unfortunately,
there are no ifs in this world."

After Maia finished speaking, a teardrop rolled down from the corner of her eyes.



"Leave the listening device behind. You can leave now. Cornell is probably coming soon. I should
depart this life."

She closed her eyes, but for some reason, Nicole felt a little sad.
