Chapter 1324:
“You must be… Margo?” she asked, as if unsure.
But the moment she saw Margo’s stiff expression, she knew she was right.
“Why don’t you go in p>
Of course the woman—Myah Hopkins—knew who Margo was. After all, her son mentioned the girl almost every single day.
Margo bit down on her lip, her voice trembling as she tried to speak.
“Have you been busy with work? I’ve heard you’re an actress.” Myah opened the ward door as she spoke, then added, “It’s the first time I’ve seen my son like someone this much. I can’t blame him, though. You’re really beautiful p>
Margo couldn’t take it anymore. She broke down completely, sobbing, “I’m sorry p>
“What did you say p>
Myah looked over as Margo stood at the ward’s doorway, her shoulders slumped with remorse. Tears streamed down Margo’s face, dampening her collar as she bowed her head in guilt.
“I’m sorry p>
It was all she could offer—small, helpless words weighed down by crushing regret. She didn’t even know what else she could do in the face of something this terrible.
Myah studied her for a moment. Calm and composed, she walked over and sat beside the bed.
“Do you know how Dunn ended up in a car accident p>
Her voice was gentle, like a summer breeze, as her eyes remained fixed on Dunn.
Margo clutched the fabric of her clothes, bit down on her lip, and whispered, “He was looking for me… It’s because of me. It’s all my fault p>
If only she hadn’t been so stubborn—if only she hadn’t said those fateful words—maybe the accident would never have happened.
She covered her face with trembling hands. Tears slipped through her fingers and fell in steady, helpless trails.

“There’s no point drowning in that now,” Myah sighed, then motioned to Margo. “Come here p>
Still trapped in a whirlpool of guilt, Margo approached hesitantly and stopped at Myah’s side. Her gaze drifted to Dunn on the bed, and the pain in her chest tightened.
Bandages and bruises covered his head and face. He was still unconscious.
Margo knew he’d suffered a head injury. There had been a concussion, and that could lead to complications—things that might not fade with time.
“He was never one to follow the rules,” Myah said softly. She gestured for Margo to sit and began speaking, as though patiently unfolding the story of Dunn’s life. “When he was little, he refused to learn the piano. And when he got older, he fought just as hard against taking over the family business p>
“In his pursuit of becoming a doctor, he clashed with his father countless times. He endured beatings—bruised and battered—yet he never let go of his dream. He was, and has always been, stubborn, unwilling to abandon what he believes in p>
As Myah spoke, Margo remembered her conversations with Dunn. She had always sensed his sincerity, yet she’d never understood why he was so unwaveringly devoted to her.
