Chapter 2232

The ward fell silent after everyone heard Nikki’s words. It was not just Jim and his assistant who were
shocked; it was hard for Sean to digest, too.

‘Why would Jim want to poison Bonnie?’ Sean thought.

“Sean, you need to trust me.” Sensing the disbelief in Sean’s eyes, malice flashed past Nikki’s eyes for a
brief moment before she flung herself into Sean’s chest, faking being the victim of circumstances.

” Sean, I’m telling you the truth! Jim Landry poisoned Bonnie and said that if she’s dead, no one will ever
know that he had been together with Bonnie before.

“If she’s dead, then you, Sean, will fall into deep misery. He’s using this to take revenge on you…
because Ms. Hamilton chose you and Mr. Wheeler instead of him!”

Nikki’s every word felt like daggers that stabbed into Sean’s heart. He stared at the man before him, the
man that he should call his brother.

How much hatred did Jim have toward Lucy and Sean that he could bring himself to try and kill Bonnie,
the woman he used to love, just to have his revenge?

Sean had never known who this half-brother of his was, but he was very jealous of him. After all, his half-
brother had been a thorn in his mother’s heart when she was alive.

Every time when his mother could not sleep, she would murmur his half-brother’s nickname in the middle
of the night, calling him ‘Jimmy’.

Whenever his mother would often end up in tears, she would bring up that name. She kept on saying
that the person she felt the sorriest to was her’ Jimmy’, that she was sorry for abandoning him.



Sean’s father, Richard Wheeler, had always gone off to see Jimmy secretly and took photos of him, just
so he could show Lucy what the boy had done for the day. She would then cherish those photos like
invaluable treasures, not allowing anyone to see them. Not even Sean, Lucy’s own son, had ever seen
his half-brother’s photo.

Before Lucy took her final breath, he had called Samuel to visit his mother for the last time. His mother
held Samual’s hand and repeated again, telling Samuel that she was sorry for Jimmy. Never once had
she told Sean that she was sorry for ignoring him all the time.

Jim had said he was the one abandoned, but Sean believed otherwise–it was he who had been
neglected. Lucy was guilt-ridden and remorseful from the moment she left Jim, but Sean had never once
experienced the love of a mother despite being the son who accompanied Lucy throughout her
remaining years.

Sean had been jealous ever since he was just a child.

All that, and Jim still wanted to exact his vengeance against Sean just because of his hatred toward his
mother. Jim wanted to use Sean’s beloved woman to take revenge on Sean!

Sean was flabbergasted at the thought. He had no idea how crazy Jim could be.

“Sean…” As Nikki saw the hatred in Sean’s eyes when he looked at Jim, Nikki quickly grabbed Sean’s
hand and lay softly in his arms.

“Let’s go back. I don’t want to stay here and see this man. I hope…”

She turned her head and looked at the still unconscious Bonnie.

“I hope the doctor can save Ms. Craig.”



Her eyes, on the other hand, conveyed a different type of emotion, showing just how self-gratified she
felt.

‘Heh! Bonnie will never live past this!’ Even if Bonnie woke up at this moment, she would only have
seven days left to live. What could she do within such a short time frame? There was nothing else she
could do to win against Nikki!

Sean furrowed his eyebrows. “I don’t want to go.”

If Jim truly had gone to the extent to hurt Bonnie because of him…
