Leaving You Bereft (Willow and Julian) novel Chapter 67

In the early hours of the morning, Willow woke up.

The first thing she saw was Dominic’s concerned face. His first words were, “Your grandma woke up. God must have been moved by your sincerity and pulled her back from the gates of hell overnight.”

“Really?”

Willow leaned against the pillow, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Dominic tucked her in and assured her, “It’s true! Don’t rush to move. There are professional doctors and nurses taking care of her over there. But you, child, need to rest properly.

Melanie said angrily, “She doesn’t love Julian at all. All she cares about is the Ziegler family shares. She married into the family for the money.”

Liam sighed helplessly and tried to reason with her. “She’s not a fairy who can live on air. Let’s be real. Without her, would Julian be living this comfortably? We’d probably still be at the mercy of Tyler and his wife. Would that make you happy?”
