After returning to the orphanage, they discover that Miya, who has been lying in the hospital bed,
disappears again. Seeing this, John feels like he is going crazy.
"Where is she?"
At this time, the director walks over and says coldly, "She's not here."
"What do you mean by that?" Is Miya dead? How can that be possible? She still had vital signs when
he held her a moment ago. John is almost on the verge of breaking down. He directly grabs the director
by her throat and snaps, "Tell me the truth. What exactly happened?"
The director has never seen John behave so violently, and she is immediately shocked. John is so
furious that he uses all his strength to grab her by the throat, making her unable to breathe smoothly.
The director even feels that she may die at any moment. John looks so fierce and terrifying, as if he
can't wait to kill her right now.
The director wants to say something, but she can't utter a single word with John strangling her. John
has already lost his mind, and he has no idea what he is doing. Anger surges through him and it's
possible for him to do any stupid thing.
Seeing his bloodshot eyes, Rory immediately becomes terrified. She feels that he is now like a
murderous maniac, and she couldn't help being in horror. Seeing that the director is about to be
strangled to death by him, she desperately grabs John's hands and shouts, "Stop hurting her. If this
continues, she might die."
Although Rory dislikes the director for her deception, she is still her biological mother, and she can't just
watch her die like this. Besides, as a kind-hearted girl, she can't bear to stand by when seeing anyone
seeking help.
"You can't kill her. If you continue doing this, you will strangle her to death. I don't want you to become
a murderer." If he commits a terrible crime, no one will be able to save her from the current miserable
life.
"Please let her go! I beg you!" Rory is so anxious that tears almost fall down her cheeks. No matter
what she says to John, he still has no response. There is a hint of hatred on his fierce face.
"Are you really going to kill her?" Rory's face is wet with tears now. No matter how she persuades him,
he just ignores her. At this very moment, Miya suddenly appears. "What are you doing?" she asks.
Seeing John grab the director by her throat, Miya is shocked. How can he become like this?
However, after hearing Miya's voice, John slowly lets go of the director. Then, he rushes over and holds
Miya tightly in his arms.
While holding her, he even has the feeling that he has got back his most precious thing.
Miya feels dumbfounded. She just went to the bathroom a moment ago. Why does he look so agitated
now?
Is it because of her that he appears so anxious and fierce? Thinking of this, she is a little delighted.
After John loosens his grip on the director, the latter collapses onto the ground as if she has lost all her
strength. Now, she finally knows that John is not easy to deal with. His look is so terrifying that she
feels as if she has seen a devil. She even regrets saving him back then, for this man is like a ticking
bomb.
"Are you alright? Did you get hurt?" Rory anxiously helps the director up. After a while, the director
finally breathes normally. If John hadn't let go of her, she would even lose her life now. After coughing
for a while, she breathes more easily.
"I'm fine." The director looks at Rory with delight.
Truth be told, it's really a blessing in disguise, for Rory finally takes the initiative to get closer to her.
Rory seems to suddenly recall something, and then she deliberately lets go of the director's hand.
"What? Are you still mad at me for I didn't tell you the truth?"
Actually, Rory isn't angry with the director. She now fixes her eyes on John and Miya who are hugging
each other tightly. She has begged John to let go of her mother so desperately, but he just acts like a
madman without listening to her at all. To her surprise, after Miya appears and asks a simple question,
he immediately rushes over. It seems that Miya is quite important to him. Then what is she to John?
Miya doesn't understand what is going on right now. She just knows that she is hugged tightly by John
now. His embrace is still so warm, and he holds her so tightly as if he is afraid that she will disappear.
Feeling his concern towards her, she also tightens her arms around his waist. However, he uses so
much strength that she is almost out of breath. She can tell that he is concerned about her.
"Can you let go of me? I can't breathe anymore..." Although Miya enjoys being hugged by him and likes
to see him act on impulse for the sake of her, she doesn't want to die from suffocation. She still wants
to stay by his side.
After hearing this, John finally realizes that he has lost control just now. After letting go of her, he looks
at her red little face and pale lips, which form a sharp contrast. Then he can't help asking her, "Are you
alright?"
Hearing this, Miya immediately feels warm inside. She is surprised to know that John indeed cares
about her.
Miya nods with a bright smile. "I'm fine." She feels so happy now, for she doesn't expect him to care so
much about her and even hurt the director for her sake. It seems that he attaches great importance to
her.
Only then does John regain his senses. He seems to suddenly remember something. Turning around,
he sees Rory who is weeping uncontrollably. Without saying anything more, Rory helps the director
aside and ignores them.
John lets go of Miya and walks to Rory. He wants to explain, but Rory interrupts him. "You don't have to
explain it to me. I just want to take good care of the director now."
After hearing this, the director is quite disappointed. It turns out that Rory is still reluctant to call her
mother.
John is also struck dumb, for he is surprised by his own action. He is also annoyed, but he knows that
he can't do anything to change his affection towards Miya. After walking to the rooftop, he immerses
himself in deep thought.
He can't figure out why he becomes so impulsive, as if he has completely lost his rationality. He has
never been like this before. Could it be that he changes so much because of Miya? They haven't
known each other for long, but why do so many things happen between them?
He is caught in a dilemma, and he feels too ashamed to face Rory now.
