Chapter 12 At that time , Nathaniel always deliberately ignored the question , attributing all his kindness to Elaine solely to guilt and compensation , as if this could prove that his heart still belonged entirely to Genevieve . He always thought that Genevieve would understand . The month he spent experiencing a couple's life with Elaine , he treated as his last chance to indulge the secret desires buried deep within him . He thought that after the kidney transplant surgery , he would still belong only to Genevieve .

" His voice was calm and emotionless , yet it made Elaine feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar , her whole body turning cold . " No ... you can't do this to me ... " She shook her head in disbelief , hugging Nathaniel tightly from behind . " Nate , I know you have feelings for me too . You're no longer the man who loved Genevieve with all your heart . What you felt for her was more about past promises and responsibility . Now that Genevieve is gone , we can be together . Let's not dwell on the past anymore , okay ? " " No. " Nathaniel coldly pushed Elaine away , his icy gaze falling on her as if he were looking at a corpse . " Elaine , I truly regret ever having feelings for you ! " " No matter if it's you or me , what we owe Genny must be repaid , one by one ! " As soon as he finished speaking , he closed his eyes and ordered someone to drag Elaine away and take the kidney that should have belonged to Genevieve . After all , he knew exactly how much property she had left to compensate with . The things he had given her in the past , the money for compensation - she had probably squandered it all long ago and couldn't possibly pay it back . Elaine was utterly desperate . She never imagined that the Nathaniel who had once been so gentle to her could now be so cold and indifferent . She was completely bewildered , struggling not to leave , clutching Nathaniel's pant leg with all her might . " Nate , please , let me go , won't you ? I didn't do anything wrong . Genny is already dead , she doesn't need my kidney anymore . Please , just let me go this once , won't you ? " Her hand gripping his pant leg had turned white from the force , but Nathaniel remained indifferent , even kicking her hand away without mercy . " Let you go ? Then what about my Genny ? This was a promise you made yourself . You owe her a kidney , and you should give it back to her ! " With that , he cast a cold glance at the hesitant bodyguards . 37.75 % 22:25 Chapter 12 288 Vouchers " What are you waiting for ? Take her away ! " " Yes , sir ! " The bodyguards hurriedly dragged Elaine away , turning a deaf ear to all her desperate pleas . Her hoarse cries for mercy grew more and more distant , but Nathaniel's heart felt emptier than ever . He could only silently hold Genevieve's corpse in his arms , wishing he could press her into his very bones . " Genny , the kidney I owed you , I've made Elaine give it back to you . " " This time , nothing and no one will ever stand in the way again . If only you could open your eyes , maybe you could use that kidney , and we could be together again . " " Genny ... " He rambled on for a long time , but the only response he received was silence .
