Til Death Do Us Part novel Chapter 23

Carl smiled bitterly. He accompanied Nikki during this time. She suffered from a lot of pain and was near to death. How could he keep the secret when he understand how bad Nikki was? He couldn't make Ryan feel at ease, and couldn't satisfied Nikki's wishes. Moreover he would make Ryan suffer such pain for his lifetime.

"Carl, you fucking lie to me!" Ryan shouted. "It's not true. Nikki cannot get stomach cancer. She doesn’t want me to marry Iva. She deliberately let you irritate me. Tell me immediately that this is not true!”

"She has got advanced stomach cancer and she's dying." Carl destroyed Ryan's defense gradually.

Stimulated by Carl’s words, Ryan’s began to feel uncomfortable in his head again. He took two steps back, covering his head. The medicine couldn't be controlled by him when he was extremely excited.

Nikki had stomach cancer. Why not tell him and hide it? Carl said that Nikki had knew her advanced stomach cancer before the divorce. But where was he when Nikki needed him?

Ryan thought about these details carefully. Nikki said that as long as he gave her ten months of marriage, they would divorce. Was she telling him that there were only ten months left for herself?

"I do not believe."Ryan denied.

Ryan's voice trembled, and a tinnitus suddenly appeared. Then he fell to the ground.

"Mr. Carson, Mr. Carson." The person accompanied beside him hurried to hold Ryan.

Ryan covered his aching head. He should be originally a happy bridegroom, but at this time he became so embarrassed. Ryan groaned in pain, pushing away the person who held him. He closed his eyes and thought of Nikki's face which used to look so sweet. Why didn’t he notice of her before?

Some memory burst into his head, then Ryan opened his eyes suddenly. The scene of the car accident many years ago appeared before him ...

“Nikki?”

Ryan widened his eyes in shock, with bloodshot in his eyes. "What happened? What happened in that car accident?"

Carl leaned against the wall and continued, "Nikki saved you that year. Why didn't you believe what she said? If it wasn't for a rescue timely, she would have died a few years ago. The injury on her spine was caused by the roof of car just for protecting you. How sad Nikki was when she woke up and saw that you were with Iva.All the hurt she has suffered were from you.

The memory of many years ago was about to appear again. Nikki was covered with blood and her blood shed all over the ground. He shook Nikki and begged her to wake up, but couldn't get any response.

Ryan burst into tears, and his pupils contracted. He remained in a lying position for several minutes. People around him didn't dare to touch him, but could only call his name loudly.

He remembered that Nikki was the one who ignored her life to save him. However what did he do to Nikki? He pushed Nikki away from him by himself. At that time, he begged Nikki's father to let Nikki marry him. What he did just to fulfill his own wishes, but he turned Nikki's father's kindness into bounds.

“Ah...”

Ryan thumped on the ground.

"How could I forgot you?"

Ryan's eyes were red, and the back of his hand was bleeding. "Where is Nikki? Tell me, I go to meet her now."

"She's in the hospital. Maybe you can't see her anymore." Carl said.

"I don't care!" Ryan shouted excitedly and hurried out.

Iva wore a wedding dress and she was very beautiful. Time was up, but Ryan didn’t turn up. So Iva went to find him. After seeing Ryan ran out so excitedly, Iva held his hand quickly, "Ryan, where are you going?"

Ryan stared at Iva with an extremely hateful look. Iva was startled by him. Ryan threw Iva to the ground, and said coldly, "I will find you to deal with the matter again!"

Iva panicked and cried,"No, Ryan, our wedding is about to begin, you can't leave me alone!"

Ryan left the hotel without looking back. He had to find Nikki. He had to tell Nikki that he always loved her. Even if the love came too late, he didn't want to have any regrets. If God had a pity on Nikki and want to punish him, he could bear any punishment. He could die for Nikki, he could bear all the pain for Nikki. What he hoped only that Nikki could live strongly.

"Nikki, please wait for me. I don't want to leave you anymore." Ryan thought with regrets.
