Hate To Love You My Billionaire Lover

Her grandfather was a tough leader in business, but he treated his people well. Unfortunately, these people that were brought up by him step by step had the audacity to stab him in the back in the most critical moment in the company’s history.

“Miss Jenkins, I am sorry. Mr. Sanchez was good to me, but I am responsible for my wife and children.” This was the honest type.

“Miss Jenkins, please sign here. You have no choice.” This was the sinister type.

And there was the negotiating type who said, “Miss Jenkins, we understand how you feel, but please cooperate with us, it will only get harder for both of us if you don’t.”

Arianna felt hopeless. She could not find a single person to trust or confide in. Everyone seemed to have ‘Judas’ stamped across their foreheads.

But the most devastating blow was when her grandfather woke up from his coma. When he awoke, Arianna was at his bedside, beaming like a child on Christmas morning. However, he could not recognize her or anyone else, nor did he remember anything from the last two decades.

As Arianna tried to hug him with tears running down her face, her grandfather grabbed the glass bottle from the bedside table and hit her across the head with it. To him, she was not his only living relative anymore, she was not the granddaughter he had loved dearly, but instead, she was a random stranger who seemed like she was going to attack him.

Despite this, Arianna stayed in the hospital with him. But she was in a groggy state now. She did not want to eat or drink, and she stopped paying attention to what time it was. After a few days, Arianna has admitted into the hospital as a patient herself.

People came to visit her and her grandfather, both always saying the same things over and over again. She heard a discussion when she appeared to be sleeping in the armchair, “Do you think she’s going to die before the old man?”

Arianna didn’t care anymore. She lost all concern and only wished that she and her grandfather could pass away together soon.

The only one who shed tears for her was the new family nanny, Winnie. She said, “Miss Jenkins, please don’t do this to yourself. The master still needs you. What if he healed and discovered that you are gone? How could he survive?”

But the words did not resonate with Arianna. And as a result, the nanny eventually stopped visiting.

She was lethargic all day, and when the doctor gave her an injection, she felt the pain but did not have the energy to make any sound. She was in a state where she could not live but also could not die. Did the blow from her grandfather knock her into this state? Arianna tried to reflect on her short life.

She really did not do any bad things. Although she lacked a compassionate heart, she always gave money to the homeless people on the road when she was young. And she would secretly help pay the textbook fees of her poor classmates in high school. And when she went to college, she was involved in volunteer charity work.

The most shameful thing she had done in her whole life was giving her body to Travis Cooper when she was younger. The most sinful thing she did was stab a man with a hairpin before he could rape her, and she didn’t even do any real damage. She thought she had enough punishment for these things, but why did her bad luck seem so endless?

She didn’t know how long she actually spent as a patient in the hospital, but her surroundings finally quieted down. Even the nurses who changed her medicine did not try to speak to her. She rested quietly, imagining the drama TV shows she watched as a child. The protagonists were in heavy snow or dense wilderness, stumbling around alone.

Why did they keep walking? They were in the middle of nowhere. Wouldn’t it be easier if they died?

Then she felt violent shaking and refused to open her eyes. She thought it was an earthquake, but later she found out that she had been moved to a different ward. Through her eyelids, she could see that this ward was brighter, and the unpleasant odor was not hard to miss.

“What do you guys do for a living? You can’t even cure the simplest of diseases! She is normal. Everything about her is fine. Why is she still lying in bed?”

“… I don’t give a fuck what method you use. Just let her wake up. If she died, she’d be haunting you by now.”

Though it was rude, it was the most caring conversation she had heard during her stay. It taught her that it wasn’t her fault that she couldn’t open her eyes; it was whatever medication was being pumped into her. And she also learned that someone was looking out for her, but she couldn’t figure out who it would be.

The voice was unfamiliar to Arianna. She even swore to herself that she had never heard it before. She tried to open her eyes and look at the person, but she could not move. Maybe it was a really long dream.

She did not know how much time had passed before she heard someone whispering in her ear. This time, she could recognize the voice. It was the man who gave her the greatest shame. She could never forget that voice.

“Arianna, between you and your grandfather, one of you is crazy, and the other is going to die. But I’m not sure which is which.”

His warm breath blew across her ear and face, making her skin a little itchy. There was also a faint smell of tobacco floating in the air.

She tried to push him away, but she only had the strength to wiggle her fingers. He then continued, “You can die if you want, you know. But if you unilaterally tear up our agreement without my permission, guess what I will do to your sweet grandfather. You can still lock up like crazy.”

Travis’s voice was colder than usual. Each word felt like an electric shock to Arianna. How could he be so ruthless when they were in such poor health? She tried hard to open her eyes, and if she could, she would have slapped him endlessly.
