Chapter 77 

An Sullivan slid the wedding band onto Megan’s ring finger, her hand tensed ever so slightly. 

He watched her closely, and finally, she relaxed her hand, allowing the ring to settle into place. The diamond sparkled brilliantly on her 

delicate finger 

With a voice that was husky with emotion, Sullivan said, “Welcome back, Mrs. Lowry” 

Megais shivered. She was back at his side, having sold herself to Sullivan completely. But from now on, she wouldn’t just be Sullivan’s wife, she would be… Mrs. Lowry 

Sullivan didn’t stay the night. 

The next day, he didn’t show up himself but sent Alton to the hospital to meet with Megan. 

Alton came bearing two documents. One was a stock transfer form for the Lowry Group, the other pertained to the Wyatt Quigley case. 

They met in the small lounge of Megan’s hospital room. 

Alton was even more formidable in person than on TV not exactly the warmest character. 

Noticing Megan’s gaze, Alton cracked a slight smile and said, “Mrs. Lowry, you seem a bit more fragile than I’d imagined.” 

Before Megan could react, he got down to business, “Mrs, Lowry, let’s get this transfer form signed first. Once you sign, you’ll immediately own two percent of the Lowry Group shares.” 

He couldn’t help but add, “In high society, many ladies spend their lives without touching a penny of their husband’s fortune. You, Mrs. Lowry, have made a very successful marriage.” 

Megan replied with self–deprecating humot. Then I suppose I should be grateful to Sullivan.” 

Alton offered a polite smile. He pointed to the spot where she needed to sign. 

As Megan raised her hand to sign, the loose sleeve of her hospital gown slid down, revealing faint scars on her arm to Alton’s observant eyes. The marks told a story of self–harm. 

Suddenly, Alton felt the urge to smoke. But reaching for his pack, he remembered that smoking was inappropriate in the hospital. 

While Alton was lost in thought, Megan had finished signing. 

After checking the document, Alton handed over another file to Megan and stepped out to smoke. 

During his smoke break, he couldn’t stop thinking about the scars on Megan’s arms. 

Back in the hospital room, Megan eagerly reviewed the documents. Alton was professional to the point of intimidation; the case matenals he provided gave them a strong chance of winning. 

At the door, Alton stood quietly, assuring her, “Mr. Lowry gave me two hundred million dollars. Rest assured, Mrs. Lowry, we will win this

nd Alton saw a hint of moisture in her eyes. 

Megan looked up. and 

After sending Alton off, Megan took a walk in the hospital’s small garden. The chill of the autumn breeze reminded her that she hadn’t been downstairs in a week 

The maple leaves were a fiery red. 

Lost in the view, she heard a familiar voice. 

“Megan?” 

Turning around, she saw Bennett 

Bennett had come with his mother to pick up her medication and stumbled upon Megan by pure chance. Seeing her in a hospital gown, he frowned and asked, “Are you sick?” 

Ever since she had guessed his feelings; Megan didn’t want to engage with him. She nodded and tried to leave. 

But he caught her wrist. 

Startled, Megan instinctively struggled “Bennett, let go of me!” 

He had just opened his mouth 19 speak when he noticed the wedding ring on her fingerso dazzling, and yet so painful to him. He stared at it for a moment before sneering, “I thought you had more pride. Back to Sullivan’s arms so quickly, huh?” 

Bennett was proud by nature, and Megan was the one he couldn’t have but secretly longed for.

Chapter 77. 

But as he reached out to pull her closer, Megan, without a second thought, slapped im across the face. 

Bennett, who had never tolerated disrespect from a woman, grabbed Megan’s hand. But then he saw the fresh, deep scars on her a 

Was this why she was hospitalized? 

in that moment of shock for Bennett, Megan pushed him away, her voice trembling, “Bernett, what do you know besides making women miserable? Have you ever felt tuly desperate? The Quigley family is bankrupt, my brother is facing a decade in jet, and Sivan is my husband, So what if I sell myself to him again? Tell me, who else but Sullivan would spend two hundred million dollars to hire Alton, or offer me two percent of the Lowry Group shares? Was my choice wrong? And what does it have to do with your 

Bennett stood there, shoken. After a long silence, he said quietly, “I had no iden” 

Megan stepped back, her voice softening, “Of course, you don’t know the hardships of life, Bennett. In your world, it’s all about what you want and don’t want. You’re just like Sullivan, you don’t understand others‘ struggles. You only care about your own comfort and pleasure. What others think or how they suffer is irrelevant to you!” 

With that, she walked away, leaving Bennett standing there in stunned silence. 

When Bennett’s mother finished her conversation with her old friend, she came looking for Bennett and noticed his distraught expression. 

Bennett forced a bitter smile. “Mom, In fine!” 

As he left his gaze lingered in the direction where Megan had disappeared. Unbeknownst to him, in the lobby of the hospital department, stood a figure… 

It was Sullivani 

Sullivan’s eyes were deep, his emotions inscrutable. After a long moment, he finally turned away and headed toward Megan’s room. 

Pushing the door open, he found Megan packing up; she was due to be discharged the next day. 

Suddenly, she felt arms enveloping herl 

Sullivan whispered huskily into her ear, “Did you just finish up with Lawyer Alton?”
