Her Marriage: The Night is Still Young-Chapter 76: This Is the Last Time

Inside the hospital room.

The lights were off, with only weak light from outside seeping into the room.

He was like a ravenous, vicious wolf.

Greedy and fierce.

She was like a plaything imprisoned by a demon.

No matter how she struggled, she couldn’t escape the demon’s grasp.

...

The last time ended.

Her whole body felt like it was skinned.

Her consciousness was seized, her soul knocked out of her body.

Nathaniel Gallagher didn’t dare to indulge too much and got up to put on his clothes to leave.

The pent-up anger was vented, and reason suddenly prevailed again.

He was about to get married, how could he...

If Eleanor knew he had slept with Josephine Thompson again, she would be heartbroken.

Thinking of this.

He felt a pang of remorse in his heart, a bit of regret, and realized he truly was a scoundrel.

But human desires are just so uncontrollable.

"Josephine, I’m sorry!"

"I promise you, this is the last time, I won’t touch you again."

He couldn’t help but lean over the bedside, kissing her forehead and cheeks repeatedly.

Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, with tear stains still remaining at the corners.

"I’m really sorry..."

...

Outside the hospital.

Eleanor had rushed to the hospital.

Vivian Shaw was anxiously waiting at the hospital entrance.

Seeing her car arrive.

She immediately ran over, opened the car door, "Aunt, why did you come so late?"

Eleanor looked worried as she got out of the car, "What exactly happened to Nathaniel?"

"You’ll know when you go take a look yourself."

"My wheelchair."

"At this moment, forget the wheelchair, I’ll help you over."

"Alright then!"

Vivian Shaw assisted Eleanor, hurriedly walking towards the elevator.

"Vivian, tell me first, what exactly happened?"

"In short, it’s something very serious."

Eleanor listened and gasped, feeling increasingly anxious.

"Ding!"

The elevator reached the floor.

"Aunt, this way."

"Yes, yes."

At the door of the hospital room.

Vivian Shaw pointed at the door hatefully, "Aunt, brother is inside, go in and check on him!"

Eleanor listened and immediately walked towards the door!

Just as she reached the doorway.

A few bodyguards blocked her, "Miss Churchill, you can’t enter."

"Andy, Tommy, is Nathaniel inside?"

"Uh..."

Eleanor looked anxious, "Hurry and tell me, is he inside?"

"President Gallagher is inside, but you can’t go in."

"Why? Move aside, I want to check."

As they were speaking.

"Click!"

The hospital room door opened.

Nathaniel Gallagher hurriedly stepped out.

Seeing Eleanor arriving, he instinctively panicked inside, but his face remained calm, "Eleanor, you... why are you here?"

Eleanor looked him over and asked with concern, "Nathaniel, are you okay?"

"I, I’m fine!" Nathaniel Gallagher tried hard to control his uneasy expression.

Eleanor felt a pang in her heart, unintentionally noticing a deep bite mark on his neck.

The mark was fresh, clearly bitten not long ago.

Though his expression was composed and at ease.

The thin sweat on his temples and neck, his unsteady breathing, and the faint scent of indulgence lingering on him.

It was clear, he had just engaged in strenuous activity.

"... Are you sure you’re okay?"

Nathaniel Gallagher felt a jab in his heart, afraid she’d insist on going in.

He quickly held her by the shoulder, "What’s the matter? Let’s go downstairs and talk."

Eleanor, being a highly intelligent woman.

Of course, she instantly saw through his panic.

Vivian Shaw observed, "Brother, who is in the hospital room? Has godmother been transferred to this room? Aunt is here specifically to check on her condition."

"Eleanor, um... let’s talk downstairs."

Eleanor felt a twinge in her heart, her nose stung with bitterness.

She stared unblinkingly at Nathaniel Gallagher, as though having seen through him entirely.

"Who is in the hospital room?"

"No one!"

Eleanor listened and gave a bitter smile, immediately turning towards the hospital room door.

She wanted to confirm with her own eyes, whether the woman inside was Josephine Thompson.

Actually, her mindset was quite open.

A man having an affair didn’t really matter to her.

To her, it was as mundane as eating meals or drinking water.

But...

She couldn’t tolerate him developing genuine feelings for another woman.

You could have a fling, but you couldn’t bring the cook home, nor could they replace her.

Nathaniel Gallagher, seeing this, hurriedly embraced her, "Eleanor, don’t."

"Don’t go in."

Tears welled up in Eleanor’s eyes, "Is Miss Thompson inside?"

Nathaniel Gallagher felt a stab in his heart, becoming even more anxious and restless.

Last time, she had already tampered with Josephine Thompson’s car.

If she got jealous again, she would surely target Josephine Thompson.

"Come back with me, this is the last time!"

"Tell me, is it her or not?"

"... No." Nathaniel Gallagher said, then suddenly bent down and forcibly picked Eleanor up.

"Put me down, I want to go in and see!"

"Wait for me to come back, there’s nothing much to see. I promise you, this is the last time."

"Nathaniel Gallagher, put me down..."

Nathaniel Gallagher ignored her protests and forcefully carried her away.

Seeing this, Vivian Shaw stomped her foot angrily, cursing at the hospital room door, "Josephine Thompson, just you wait, I won’t let you have it easy."

...

Inside the hospital room.

Josephine Thompson had been in a deep sleep for several hours before groggily waking up.

After waking up.

The room was shrouded in darkness.

Her whole body ached intensely, and the resentment and shame in her heart overwhelmed her.

"Nathaniel Gallagher, you bastard—"

She stumbled out of bed and turned on the light.

Nathaniel Gallagher was nowhere to be seen, and the bed was a mess.

Her clothes were also torn to shreds.

Helpless, she could only call her assistant.

"Bring me a set of clothes."

"Yes, President Thompson."

Half an hour later.

She took a shower and changed her clothes.

Staggering out of the ward.

The four bodyguards stared at her blankly, "President Thompson."

Fury blazed in Josephine Thompson’s heart, "I just called you, didn’t you hear me?"

The four looked at each other, "We didn’t hear anything!"

"Yeah, Andy said you wanted to discuss business with President Gallagher and told us not to disturb."

Josephine Thompson’s heart exploded, for the first time she lashed out at her assistant and bodyguards, "...Alright, none of you need to come to work tomorrow."

This batch of bodyguards was utterly useless.

She needed to find a new batch of competent, capable, and intelligent bodyguards.

"President Thompson, did we... did we do something wrong?"

Josephine Thompson didn’t want to say more, instead walking towards her grandfather’s ward with a heavy heart.

Indeed.

She wouldn’t report Nathaniel Gallagher.

Even if she did, it would likely be judged that they were consensual in bed.

He was so hateful and detestable.

No matter how you initially resisted and struggled, he found a way to make you succumb and submit.

If he insisted that she was willing, she would have no way to defend herself.

...

Arriving at her grandfather’s ward.

Auntie Linton and Auntie Lena were waiting anxiously.

"Miss, why are you just coming back now?"

"It’s nothing, don’t talk about it, we’re being discharged immediately."

"Oh, alright."

"Grandpa, we’re leaving."

Master Thompson lay on the hospital bed, supported by a nurse to get up.

Then, a servant brought over a wheelchair.

"Be careful, sir."

"Take it slow, Grandpa." Josephine Thompson followed the servant, helping her grandfather into the wheelchair.

"Let’s go!"

"Miss, are we going to Virtus Private Hospital?"

Josephine Thompson’s expression was solemn, "No, we’re leaving Audenburg, heading to Northwood."

"Huh?"

"To Northwood?"

Josephine Thompson nodded, "Yes, I just called and booked a private jet, the medical team will accompany us to Northwood."

"Uh..." Auntie Lena and Auntie Linton looked at each other, bewildered.

Without saying more, Josephine Thompson instructed her assistant to get the documents while starting to call and contact hospitals in Northwood.

She was very clear!

As long as she stayed in Audenburg, she couldn’t escape Nathaniel Gallagher.

She was taking her grandfather two thousand kilometers away to Northwood.

Only this way, she could completely rid herself of him.

...

A few hours later. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

The plane to Northwood broke through the clouds.

Josephine Thompson looked out of the cabin window at the gradually shrinking Audenburg, clutching her grandfather’s hand.

The old man’s cloudy eyes were full of worry, but he simply patted her hand, "Girl, don’t wrong yourself."

"Grandpa, didn’t you always want to return to your roots? I’m taking you back to our ancestral home to live for the long term."

"Hmm~, Grandpa wanted to go back to see the old home too. But alas, Northwood’s winter is too cold, this old body of mine can’t take it."

"It’s okay, Grandpa, there’s heating. We’ll stay for a while, and if you really can’t get used to Northwood’s climate, I’ll send you abroad."

"Anywhere is fine." Master Thompson smiled kindly, not saying much more.

He knew his granddaughter wanted to leave Audenburg.

But she also couldn’t bear to leave him alone in Audenburg.

So, she wanted to take him with her.

"I’m just worried about Grandpa..."

"Grandpa’s fine, having you accompany me more, I’m already fully content."

Hearing that, Josephine Thompson’s eyes welled up with tears, unable to stop herself from crying.

It was her own fault for being so blind, insisting on marrying Nathaniel Gallagher.

If it weren’t for that, her grandfather wouldn’t have to endure such hardships at his old age, following her through ups and downs.

Seeing his granddaughter’s eyes turn red, the old man comforted her lovingly, "Don’t be sad, no hurdle is insurmountable. In Northwood, everything will start anew."

"Moreover, Northwood is an archaeological sanctuary, also the largest gathering place in the antique world, it will be beneficial for you too."

"Yes, yes, thank you, Grandpa, for encouraging me."

"Silly child, everything will be fine."

...

Meanwhile.

Nathaniel Gallagher had finally managed to escort Eleanor Churchill back to The Rose Garden.

At the same time, he couldn’t help worrying about Josephine Thompson.

He called her several times, but her phone was always off.

So he had to send bodyguards to check at the hospital.

"Andy, how did it go?"

Andy looked anxious, "President Gallagher, Miss Thompson and Master Thompson have already left the hospital."

"Which hospital did they transfer to?"

"It seems they’ve left Audenburg, I heard Miss Thompson booked a private jet and took the old man to Northwood."

"..." Nathaniel Gallagher felt a moment of blankness.

This was for the best.

At least by leaving Audenburg, she wouldn’t clash with Eleanor anymore.
