Chapter 696: Aren&##x27;t You Sad at All

They are feeling the pain and enduring it.

Karl seems to be standing at the center of the storm. He frowns and tries his best not to lose control.
"Maybe you should go in and say goodbye to him."

With that, he moves aside and leaves the door open.

Amelia has no strength left. Held up by Florence and her husband, she is almost half-dragged into the
emergency room.

The man originally standing beside Amelia does not move at all. He fixes his eyes on the door in front
of him-the door which was tightly closed, but is now open...

His desire is so strong that he even hallucinates, as if he has seen Adonis lying in bed being pushed
out of the emergency room. Adonis has always been lucky, doesn't he?

But not this time.

Adonis, the man who had been with Rex for more than thirty years, left this world.

Eaten up with diseases, Adonis leaves this world.

Departure is such a heavy word, but with Adonis left, nothing has changed. It is just that he is gone.
Other than Rex and the others, no one knows about his departure, and no one cares.

Thinking of this, Rex is almost on the verge of collapse.

For a moment, Lily doesn't have the guts to touch him. She is afraid that this man will collapse upon
her touch.

But she has to wake him up. Otherwise, Rex will only seal himself in a shell.



"Rex." Lily raises her hand and pats his back extremely gently, saying, "Let's go in and take a look."

"Lily, this isn't true, right?" He forces out a sentence despite the taste of blood in his throat.

Lily feels a sudden heartache. She really wants to tell him that all of this is not true. Adonis is still here,
and he is fine. But she can't.

"Rex, Adonis has reached the end of his life. He won't be in pain anymore."

Rex's face is almost twisted, and she cannot tell whether he is crying or laughing. He says, "Yes, he
has left. The pain is for us, who are still here."

Lily frowns. Hearing his irrelevant words, she doesn't say anything. 'Adonis passed away all in a
sudden. Although Rex is mentally prepared, he still can't accept it for a moment. His mind is in a mess
now. How rational can he be?' she thinks to herself.

She grabs his arm and says firmly, "Rex, can you go in and take a look at Mr. Adonis?"

Although it is a question, Lily does not intend to give him any minute to hesitate. She directly uses all
her strength and drags him into the emergency room.

If he has to face it, then face it now. He shouldn't run away and leave a scar in his heart that will never
be erased.

Escaping won't make him feel better, so it's better for him to face the truth.

After passing through a small corridor, Lily quickly finds the bed on which Adonis is lying. The lights for
the operation has been extinguished and replaced by a normal soft light. There is only a doctor and a
nurse left inside the room. Seeing that Adonis’ families have arrive, they immediately keep their
distance from the bed.



When Rex walks in, the various instruments and masks on Adonis have been taken off. He just lies
there in silence.

Adonis has become extremely skinny, and the bones on his face are far too obvious. His breathing has
stopped, and he no longer has a trace of vitality.

Amelia and Florence are already crying at the side. Rex stands at the end of the bed without making a
sound.

A few hours ago, he was talking to Adonis about Adair, about the past and the present. In just a few
hours' time, they are separated forever. This is the end of Adonis’ life. Rex can no longer see him.

Amelia is too sad to pull herself together. Her mind has begun to collapse. She looks at Rex, who is
silent, and points at him, crying loudly, "Your grandpa is gone for good! Aren't you sad at all? You just
watched like this... until he left! You're so ruthless..."

Lily tightens her grip on the man's fingers. Hearing Amelia's unprovoked accusation, she feels so
painful, as is someone has imprinted her heart with a hot iron.

She understands Amelia's pain, but she shouldn't transfer her pain to another person. Moreover, she
knows better than anyone how tormented Rex is.

Just as Lily can no longer endure and is about to speak up for Rex, the hand that she is holding
suddenly forcefully clenches her back. His strength almost crushes her bones.

She frowns in pain, but doesn't break free.

She turns around and looks at the person beside her. Rex fixes his gaze on Adonis, as if he is trying to
remember this scene. He wants to imprint Adonis deeply into his mind. He does not refute Amelia, but
just standing there quietly.



Lily feels uncomfortable seeing this scene, and even Karl feels wronged for Rex.

However, Rex does not say a word. He does not even try to explain. To him, the quarrel now is the
greatest disrespect for the deceased.

He is not afraid of being misunderstood at all. He just wants to quietly take a look at the person lying on
the hospital bed.

Time seems to have stopped at this moment. It is one person's final farewell to another.

"Do we need to inform Mom?" Amelia's husband is the only one who is relatively sober. Thinking that
this is the final goodbye to Adonis, he realizes that he should notify Clara.

Unexpectedly, just as he finishes speaking, a dull and old voice suddenly sounds from outside the
emergency room. "There's no need. I came here myself."

Everyone is shocked by this sudden voice. They turn around and see Clara standing at the door. The
person accompanying her is her driver.

Clara walks in without looking sideways. She directly stops at the head of the hospital bed. Her slightly
bent body carries a calm aura. Her pale hair covers her back as she looks down at the person who has
been with her for most of her life. At this moment, Adonis no longer has any signs of life. Clara does not
make a scene, nor does she even sob.

She only raises her hand and wipes away her tears silently, not allowing anyone to see her sorrow.

"Alright, your father has already lived a long life at this age. He has experienced everything he should.
There's nothing to cry about. He won't be lonely for too long. I'll be with him soon in the future." Clara's
tone is very calm, and one can tell from her voice that she is indeed peaceful.



Perhaps it is because Clara is getting old, and she will always think that one day, with the passage of
time, all will be gone.

Sooner or later, no one will be able to avoid it. Since that is the case, they can only feel sorry for the
change.

The dead has already left, and the living still has to live a good life. Life is cruel, but they have no
choice.

"You should think carefully about how to deal with the funeral. I'm too old to do anything. Rex, your
grandfather values you the most. You can discuss it with your mother."

Rex closes his eyes and nods heavily, "Alright."

"You guys go out first. Leave me alone with your father for a while. I want to say something to
him."
