Chapter 140 See His Brother
Chapter 140 See His Brother
Bright drove his Maserati away from the Lee's. Rose asked him, "Where are we going?"
"You'll know it in a while." Bright kept it confidential, "Be cautious. I'll speed up."
Rose didn't ask him. She took the seat.
The gentle music was played in the car and she enjoyed it with her eyes closed.
After 40 minutes, the car stopped inside a supreme private sanatorium.
The sanatorium's main color was white and green. Its architecture was white while the plants were green, closing people's distance to the nature.
Bright got off the car and held Rose's hand, leading her to Building 6.
"Why are we here?" she asked while following him, "Is your grandma here?"
She heard that his grandma was in poor health and needed a good rest. Furthermore, the only person she hadn't seen was his grandma.
"Nope." Bright gave her a mysterious smile, "but this is really an important person to me. In a while you will know it."
Rose followed him with her hand in his. They took the lift to the 8th floor and a doctor came toward them, "Hi, Mr. Lee. You are here for your brother again." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Dr. Liu was around 40. He happened to be his brother's attending doctor and he was very responsible.
"Hi, Dr. Liu." Bright held Rose's shoulders, "This is my first time to bring my wife here for my brother."
"Nice to meet you, Mrs. Lee." Dr. Liu smiled, "You really match each other. Your brother will be very glad."
"Yes, so I come here for telling him the good news. She will look after me and he won't be worried about me." Mentioning his elder brother, Bright wore a smile on his handsome face.
Bright took Rose to his brother, Marley Lee's ward. It was sunny today so it was bright inside.
Rose felt a bit nervous as it was her first time to see his brother. But what came into her sight was a sleeping man surrounded by the sophisticated machines. With different types of tubes surrounding the man in front of her, her nervous feeling disappeared immediately. Instead, she was astonished.
The nurse looking after him saw Bright rose up immediately. She greeted him shyly, "Mr. Lee, I'll be leaving."
It was quiet inside the ward and only the machines' ticks could be heard, reminding them a wan was lying in bed.
Bright took Rose approaching the bed, "Marley, how are you these days? Today I bring an important person here. She's your sister-in-law, Rose. You must be surprised that I'm married, right? So please don't worry about me."
Rose observed the handsome young man in bed. He looked like Bright, but his face was unhealthily pale.
He neither talked nor moved and even his breath was very light. Except for the breath, he was like a dead man.
This was what people called PVS and it was her first time to see PVS.
"Rose, come and say hi to Marley."
"Hi, Marley, I am Rose, Bright's wife."
"Marley, you see I'm married and have a kid, but you're still in bed. You have been in sleep for so many years. Do you want to keep asleep?"
Bright frowned and looked at Marley. Worry appeared in his eyes and a few tears rolled down as well. He tightly clenched his fist to suppress his pain.
Rose didn't know how to console him. She could only pat on his arms.
Rumors had it that Bright was so cruel that he killed and framed his siblings for the position of CEO. However, it seemed that the rumor was waffle.
Although she had no evidence to prove Bright was not that cruel, her gut told her that he was trustworthy.
Just as Jane said, a man who loved a kid so much couldn't be a bad guy.
Bright raised his hand and gently patted on the back of her hand, "I'm fine."
"You and Marley must have a good relationship." Or else he would be that concerned with Marley.
"When Mum passed away, he was 4 and Dad was busy with work. Damian had taken care of us in daily life. Marley accompanied me and consoled me. He was the man who gave me mental support." What appeared in his mind were the pictures they drew when they were young. Only at that time Marley was vibrant.
"He's very nice and friendly to everyone. Dad valued him as well although Dad sometimes thought Marley was too lenient and he was not the first choice to take over HY Group. He didn't do anything bad all his life. However, he had such a miserable result."
Bright breathed a sigh of regret. How could life be so unfair and why bad things happen to good people.
"Why did he become so?" She asked curiously.
Bright loved his brother so much that it was impossible for him to frame his brother. There must be some other reason.
"I'm not sure." He lowered his head. He knew nothing about it, so he couldn't avenge for his brother and this was why he felt upset.
Rose helped him take a seat and she sat down as well.
Was it because Marley became a vegetable that others made Bright a scapegoat?
"The accident happened at a weekend. I invited him to climb the mountain that day, but he said he had something important to do and I didn't take it seriously. Later I got a call and was told that he was in danger because of jumping from a high-rise. When I arrived at the hospital, he had been in coma and so far no sign shows he revives." Bright didn't know why Marley wanted to jump from the building.
"Did he jump himself?" Rose was confused as well.
"The identification result said so." Bright leaned forward with his elbows on his knees, "Although he was nice, he wasn't a man that would commit suicide. I want him to revive and tell me why he did so."
Although Rose couldn't really understand his feeling of losing his beloved brother, she could understand his pain.
"Did anything special happen before he jumped?" Rose kept asking.
"He was not a wine bibber and he was self-disciplined. However, one day he became drunk in the bar. The next day when I asked him, he behaved as usual. One month later, he jumped from the building." Bright clasped his hands, scolding himself for not noticing something unusual at that time.
"Was there anything unusual?"
"Anything else…" he twisted his eyebrows, recalling what had happened at that time, "Another point is …"
