Next to him, Angelsat in a chair, looking utterly defeated as she stared immovingly at him.
Her love for Joshua had long dissipated since she got exposed ashis cheating mistress, went into a very both tumbled down the stairs and sissed meeting his baby for the very last time,

- couldn’t leave him. It she lost him, she wouldn’t be able to live for long. Nobody would want to take in a woman whose reputation had fallen into the dumps like hers. The one thing she could do now was to grab on tightly to joshna and fever let go.
When she thought about this, she pressed the call button next to the bed.
Within seconds, a group of doctors immediately rushed into the waist and started the energency procedure on joshua. It wasn’t until late at night that Joshua’s high fever finally went aware
After finally recovering from the illness, Joshua no longer looked at Angel with hate. He just looked at her with calm eyes as though he’d accepted his fate.
After all, both Joshua and Angel had been in the wrong. They had both let Melody down
He stared at Angel for the longest time ever. Then, he finally said, “Let’s get a divorce.”
Joshua’s words were like a lightning bolt to Angel’s ears. Her initially calm face turned pale at once as she kept shaking her head profusely.

she bell to her knees before him as her tears flowed down her face. She begged and pleaded with him, saying, “Josh, please, don’t divorce me. What have I done wrong? Tell me I’ll change my ways, I’ll change my ways!”
However, Joshua just closed his eyes exhaustedly.
“You’ve done wrong. I’ve also done wrong. Don’t you think we should stopcontinuing to be wrong like this?
Angel still kept crying and shaking her head. She refused to get a divorce with him. However, Joshua just continued speaking as though he never heard her
“After the divorce, I’ll transfer the ownership of my villa to your name. I’ll also give you tive million dollars as compensation. Let’s separate on a good note, okay?” Angel was just about to speak when Jessica rushed into the ward and slapped Joshua hard on the face
“What divorce are you talking about? If you divorce her now, your father will kick you out of the Gretchen family and take back all the shares you own now. If that happens, how are you supposed to continue fighting with your brother?
“Also, you can still give your father a grandchild if you both stay together. Maybe it’ll make your father happy and he’ll finally let you go back to the company!” Joshua nursed his smarting cheek and suddenly broke out in laughter.
He’d already lost the most precious love of his life. None of these earthly monetary gains meant anything to him anymore.
No matter how Jessicated talking him out of it, Joshua insisted on getting the divorce.
A year later, Joshua and Angel made headlines again.
The last time they made it to the top of the trending search was because of their raked indecent photos and videos. This time, it was because Angel stabbed Joshua in the guts when they went to the courthouse for the divorce.
Luckily, the employees at the courthouse managed to act intime and push her away before she did any more harm, thus saving Joshua’s late.
After staying in the emergency unit for more than ten hours, Joshua’s condition finally stabilized. He was then transferred to the ICL ward.
However, nobody law when Josh would wake up from his.coma.
Meanwhile, Angel was sentenced to ten years in prison for intentional homicide.
Everyone in the online community couldn’t help praising the system for her sentence, saying that she deserved this outcome.
Even Meredith, who’d stumbled upon this video on Tiktok, couldn’t help but finally sigh in both pity and reliet.
Josha used to be such a successful businessman who could have had anything in the world. And yet, nobody would have thought that he would end up like this. Meredith closed her eyes and suddenly remembered that when she was 16 years old, Joshua had promised her that he would make it big in the business world when he grew up in that he could show off to his own kids in the future.
but now, Joshua lay unmoving in the ICU ward, fighting for his life and relying on machines to breathe, not knowing whether he would even be able to wake up
from his coma or not
