Ysabel was stunned. Before she could say anything, Fill suddenly turned around. The exasperation in
his eyes frightened her. She trembled and even wanted to escape.
To Ysabel's surprise, right at this moment, Fill hugged her tightly and even cried.
"Whitney, is that you? It's you, right? I knew you wouldn't mercilessly leave me alone to face this cruel
world. Don't go, Whitney. Stay with me, okay?"
Ysabel had witnessed Fill's fury and ruthlessness. She didn't expect to see Fill crying one day.
A man like him cried!
What kind of affection prevented him from getting over her sister's death after eight years?
If Jarrod could treat her like Fill, she would do anything for him. Unfortunately, Jarrod did not love her at
all.
Ysabel's eyes also slightly reddened.
She gently patted Fill's shoulder and sighed.
She didn't want to explain anything at this time. That would only upset Fill. He'd better stay in the sweet
dream.
Fill cried like a child.
He finally held Whitney, which he failed at each midnight when he missed her so much.
For him, Whitney was alive again. He could feel and touch her.
He hated to think how it could possibly happen. At this moment, he only wanted to believe it was true.
"Whitney, I miss you so much. I really miss you. Do you know? Without you, this world is cold to me.
How can you leave me alone in this cruel world? You have said that you would watch the sunset and
come home with me. You said I didn't need to care about my parents because I had you. But where
have you been for so many years? Whitney, you are the only sunshine in my life. I will always
remember the girl who came to me in the sunshine. You redeemed me, encouraged me to be enlisted,
and showed me a life I never imagined possible. But I didn't expect you'd pass away one day for that. If
I had known this was going to happen, I would never have allowed you to be a soldier."
"Whitney, did you think of me when you was about to die? You thought about me, didn't you? You knew
that your death would kill me, so why did you do that? Whitney, you sacrificed your life for others. You
valued your love, your loyalty, and your faith more than me. I should hate you, but I can't. I miss you. I
miss you so much. Can you take away my deep love for you? "
As Fill confided in her, Ysabel kept sobbing.
She knew everything about Fill and her sister Whitney.
Fill once told her.
Fill used to be a rebellious child who ran away from home because of a quarrel with his parents.
He was so stubborn that he wouldn't return home. When he had no money, he joined a gang. However,
he got severely injured in a fight and almost died.
After losing so much blood, Fill thought that he would die.
He was only sixteen years old. He was not willing to die young.
"Are you alright?"
Fill would never forget that scene. The girl came in the sunshine and extended her hand to him.
He thought she was an angel.
She was so good-looking and gentle. She helped him up, not afraid of the bloodstain on his body.
His blood stained her white skirt, but she didn't care.
She told Fill that he needed to survive and live a meaningful life.
On that day, Fill knew that this girl was his salvation.
She asked him about his age and address. She used her own money to help Fill receive proper
treatment in the clinic.
For the first time in his life Fill wanted to protect a girl. He wanted to be with this girl forever.
To give his girl a better life, he returned to his home that was full of dangers and schemes.
His siblings were plotting against him for inheritance of the family wealth.
Fill escaped death for many times. But he only showed his most beautiful smile to Whitney.
He transferred to Whitney's school. In order not to fall behind, he worked hard. But his grade always
ranked second. Whitney took the first place.
One day, Whitney said that she wanted to be enlisted into the army. She asked if he wanted to do so.
Be enlisted?
Fill had never thought about it. It was not a path suitable for him, but he nodded after seeing Whitney's
determination.
They joined the army without dropping school.
Fill didn't notify any of his family members. For them, he just disappeared.
He knew that his years of hard work would be in vain if he left. His siblings would seize this opportunity
to completely take away the prestige and power that he had accumulated over the past few years. But
so what?
All he wanted was Whitney.
They were happy during that time.
Soldiers were not allowed to have a relationship without a military rank. They went all the way up.
When he finished a mission, he immediately visited Whitney. He only smiled when he make sure that
she was safe and sound.
If only he had knew that being a high-ranking officer in the military and joining the special team would
cost Whitney her life. He would asked Whitney not to work hard and just fulfill her obligatory two years
of service.
But that was only his dream.
By the time he realized that, Whitney had passed away.
He would never see his angel again.
Those villains took away his sunshine. He was furious and desperate.
He would shred those people even at the cost of his own life.
He was never a good person anyway.
Fill burst into tears.
When Whitney died, he didn't cry.
When Whitney was buried, he didn't cry for not being able to visit her graveyard.
He still didn't cry when he woke up in a panic all those years.
But at this moment, Fill cried so hard.
Who said men didn't have tears?
It was just not easy for them to be sad.
Fill had a feeling that this woman might not be Whitney but someone looking like her.
He didn't care.
At this moment, he was hugging a warm body.
His sunshine seemed to return to him. She touched his head and said softly, "Sorry, Fill, I came back to
you so late. I'm really sorry."
Fill hugged the woman tighter than humanly possible.
Ysabel was also crying.
He sister was really fortunate, wasn't she?
Although her life was very short, she had a man who loved her so much. She had no regret.
Fill was her brother-in-law but they slept together once.
Ysabel told herself that he loved his sister. Perhaps it was an accident at that time. It might a kind of
punishment, or a game without emotional communication.
However, Ysabel's heart still hurt.
After all, she only slept with this man.
Ysabel felt painful seeing him so sad for her sister. All she could do was hugging Fill tightly.
Samuel and Nicole felt bad when they saw this scene outside the door.
Nicole wanted to enter the room, but Samuel stopped her.
"Give Fill some time."
"But it is Ysabel, not Whitney. Samuel, do you want to Ysabel to be the substitute for Whitney?"
As a woman, Nicole naturally understood women.
She did not know if Ysabel was attracted to Fill. But they couldn't allow Ysabel to be with Fill as
Whitney's substitute.
Samuel laughed when he saw his wife so anxious.
Nicole was always so enthusiastic and fair.
He rubbed Nicole's head and said softly, "Do you really think Fill doesn't know that Whitney has died?
Over the years, he understands that more than anyone else. But Ysabel's appearance broke him down.
When he puts himself together, he'll take care of Ysabel. Besides, Fill has never touched any woman
except Ysabel over these years."
"So Fill treated Ysabel as a substitute for Whitney from the very beginning, right?"
"Not really."
Samuel held Nicole's hand and walked out of the ICU. Then, he handed his phone to Nicole and asked
her to see some photos.
The women in the photos looked more or less like Whitney.
"These women are...."
"They were found by Fill's family. They even wanted to use these women to bring Fill back home.
Unfortunately, Fill wasn't attracted to any of them. Some women even introduced themselves to Fill. But
Fill only made love with Ysabel."
Nicole was puzzled about Samuel's words.
What did he mean?
Samuel smiled and said, "If he really wants to seek justice for Dennis, killing Ysabel is the best way. He
can also warn Jarrod with that. But Fill chose a hard way."
"What exactly do mean?"
Nicole frowned slightly, unable to understand Samuel's words.
Samuel looked in the direction of Fill's ward and whispered, "Before you inquired about Ysabel's
background, Fill had sent people to investigate that. Otherwise, how did we get the information so
soon? It takes time for a paternity test."
Nicole was immediately stunned.
"You mean Fill knows that Ysabel is Whitney's sister?"
Samuel nodded.
"Then he still slept with Ysabel? What a...."
"He decides to let go of his obsession with Whitney, but he needs to take care of her family. Becoming
Ysabel's husband is the only and best way."
Samuel's words instantly stunned Nicole.
