Chapter59
As for the grandfather, he definitely had feelings for his grandson, but being born into a big family like the Diaz family, amidst the bloody struggles, how much love could still be felt?
So he was strong, aloof, cold and unfeeling.
These were the characteristics he had accumulated over the past few decades, which could not be changed.
If Julissa had realized this earlier, she wouldn’t have desperately hoped for Reece to come back.
Julissa sighed as she looked at the rushing river, and suddenly an idea popped into her mind.
She hurriedly got up and rushed back, tearing off Reece’s shirt in large pieces, running to the stream, tying the bloodstained shirt to a rock, and throwing it in.
As long as this shirt could float downstream successfully and be picked up by the search team, they could follow the river and find them!
Otherwise, the search and rescue team would have to search each mountain one by one, which would take too long and Reece couldn’t hold on.
Julissa did everything and walked back to Reece, seeing that he was still awake.
His brow furrowed, and his lips seemed to have turned a shade

paler.
“Did it hurt a lot?”
Reece’s voice was very soft.
“Fortunately.”
It seemed like Reece thought of something, and then he spoke again.
“I died, and you became a widow.”
Julissa resisted the urge to roll her eyes.
Even in this situation, he still wants to say such things to provoke her?
“You died, and I was the first one to kick Cristina out of the Diaz Group.”
Julissa pretended angrily, “I am now a shareholder of the Diaz Group. Without you backing her up, I guarantee she won’t survive.”
Julissa said these words not as a joke, after many things happened, she gradually and firmly saw through her own heart.
Reece was very grateful for saving her when she was injured.
Whether it was because Reece was afraid of implicating the Diaz Group, she sacrificed herself to save them.
It doesn’t matter anymore.
She could joke with him and Cristina with a smile.

Those wasted efforts in the past are now a thing of the past, and it’s just “lights across the river” from now on.
Reece’s throat rolled lightly, and the eyes that looked down on everything were now filled with a faint mist, not sure if it was because of the heavy moisture here or if the water glare had stung his eyes, he spoke slowly.
“You can rest assured, I won’t let you succeed.”
His tone was indifferent, as if he was talking about “Cristina,” but also seemed to be subtly trying to convey other meanings.
Julissa shrugged, taking his words at face value.
“Then you have to live well.”
From morning until afternoon, Reece fell into a coma several times and woke up, completely weakened.
Julissa touched Reece’s palm, which was scalding hot.
She was startled and hurried to feel Reece’s forehead.
“You had a fever!”
Indeed, in such a harsh environment, with a body soaked and injuries everywhere, how could one not have a fever.
“No,” Julissa said anxiously, looking at the darkening sky outside, and made a decision, “We need to leave here while it’s dark!”
Surrounded by water, the temperature dropped sharply on the mountain at night, Reece definitely couldn’t make it.

u nang in there.”
After saying that, Julissa made an effort to help Reece up.
She tried to put his arm around her shoulder, but tried several times, she couldn’t even support his body.
Several times Reece bumped into his wound, causing him to groan in pain.
Julissa was both anxious and impatient, but her body was already exhausted, and all her efforts were in vain.
The man slightly helplessly held her in his arms.
“I might have been killed by you.”
Julissa cast her eyes down.
She felt “useless“.
“Okay.”
Reece sighed and rubbed Julissa’s wet hair.
“Take a break.”
He was too tired.
Reece fell asleep like that, in a daze, and had many dreams. He dreamed of marrying Julissa, and he disgustingly shook her hand away.
Dreaming that they got married, he criticized her in every possible way.

When she dreamed of their divorce, she didn’t look back.
Dreamed of her first leaving, first rebellion, first refusal of his approach.
In a daze, Reece slowly opened his eyes, reality and dreams blurred.
The gaze went from blurry to clear.
Julissa’s slender body gradually became clearer in sight.
She carefully broke the branches and watched as the flames in front of her slowly grew stronger, a faint smile appearing on her pale face.
Reece’s heart skipped a beat.
Julissa turned around with bright eyes at this moment and saw Reece awake, with a smile on her lips.
