Chapter 599
"I have a question for you, Jude," Hades said, looking at her.
Finally, there was something else to distract her, so she asked, "What is it?"
"Are you envious of Selena?"
All of a sudden, Jude broke into a smile. "Well, who wouldn't be? She has a man who loves her deeply, three adorable children, and their family of five live happily together. That's probably what happiness means."
Therefore, she was willing to sacrifice for Selena back then. It was enough for her to see Selena living happily.
Quietly, Hades hung his head, thinking, Just as long as she's happy.
"You're really great, Hades, for your willingness to give her up and fulfilling her wishes," Jude said, reading his mind.
Chuckling softly, he replied, "I'm not as great as you said I am. Why should I cling on to her when she doesn't even love me?" After a short pause, he asked suddenly, "What about you? I can tell that you and Satan are in love, but why did you still choose Wyatt?"
This question got her stumped, and she lowered her gaze to the floor. After a long moment of contemplation, she finally answered, "Wyatt is really good to me, and he can give me the ordinary life that I want. Ever since I was young, I've always wanted a peaceful and quiet family, and he's the only one who can give that to me."
Hades didn't interrupt her, and he saw the tears shimmering in the corners of her eyes.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
"As for the reason why I chose to give up on your brother, it's because there shouldn't be any woman by his side." Wiping away the tears from her eyes, she went on to explain, "A woman will become his weakness, and he's not a person who should have one. Once a man has a weakness, it will be difficult for him to make each step, and very often, he'll be thrown into dilemmas. You asked me earlier if Selena was happy. Well, she is indeed happy, but she has her own set of problems as well. Ever since Pierre is with her, he has been in countless dangerous situations, but luckily, he was able to make it through every time. I don't want your brother to be in the same situation as him. He shouldn't have an Achilles' heel, and no weak spot."
This was her way of protecting him.
Jude had to admit that she wasn't as brave as Selena, and she wasn't confident that she could protect herself well. Thus, she didn't want to become Satan's weakness. Nodding with a smile, Hades said, "Satan's love for you wasn't for nothing."
As long as the Zephyr Organization existed and they were still in this industry, love would be something they could never possess.
However, could they give it up? It wouldn't be so easy. Over the years, they had accumulated too many enemies and they could only tough it out down this path. Even if they dissolved the organization, their enemies from the past wouldn't let them go so easily.
The surgery went on for eight hours as it was a really tough operation. By the time Wyatt came out of the operating room, he almost passed out from exhaustion. Later, Jude found out from the nurses that he had used up all the towels while he was conducting the surgery, and each of the towels were dripping wet with his sweat.
In his thick surgery robes, Wyatt gave her an 'OK' hand signal and then passed out from exhaustion.
The surgery was a success. If Satan took good care of himself, followed the instructions of the rehabilitation therapist and trained himself properly, he would have a thirty percent chance of getting up on his fee again.
When Wyatt woke up again, he saw Jude sitting by his bedside. At first, he had thought that she would be by Satan's side because the first six hours after the operation would be the toughest period for him, but unexpectedly, she was right here with himself instead.
"Would you like some water?" she asked, sticking a straw into a cup.
After drinking some water, Wyatt felt much better, and he asked, "Why aren't you staying with him?"
"Of course I'll have to stay by my man's side. Thank you, my dear doctor. You've worked hard."
