Chapter 135 Leon Has No Heart at All Ulysses stared at the ice cream in his hand, the one Tiffany hadn't taken yet. His eyes were full of hurt as he asked, "Tiffany, do you think I'm a bad person?" Tiffany was at a loss for words. She didn't really know Ulysses that well, but he had done spretty hurtful things. After a moment, she silently took the ice cream from him.
Seeing this, Ulysses' face lit up with a smile as he sat down next to her. "Got any questions? Go ahead and ask. I'll tell you everything." He turned to look at Tiffany, ice cream smeared at the corner of his mouth.
Tiffany noticed and pulled a tissue from her bag, handing it to him. "Here, wipe your mouth." "Thanks." Even such a simple gesture made Ulysses incredibly happy.
But Tiffany's mind was still racing. She took a deep breath and asked, "Why did you hurt Flora?" Ulysses stopped eating his ice cream. His face instantly showed guilt, and he hung his head, looking even more upset than Tiffany.
Tiffany couldn't tell if he was genuinely remorseful or just putting on an act.
"Tiffany, I never wanted to do this, but you and those three kids mean everything to Leon. I felt like I had no choice but to use you to make him panic, to make him understand the fear of losing someone he cares about. But I didn't expect your kindness, and for that, I feel a bit of regret. I promise I won't do it again; I have no intention of hurting you or your kids. Do you still hold a grudge against me?" Ulysses looked at Tiffany with sincerity, meaning every word.
Tiffany felt a tightness in her chest. She knew Ulysses had a rough childhood, which twisted his personality. But how could he make others suffer because of his own misfortunes? Especially since his mother's death had nothing to do with Leon.

He would never let Leon off so easily. Leon had to experience all the pain he had endured.
They were both children of the Cooper Family. Why should Leon inherit the company while he got nothing? Ulysses wanted to show them that being an illegitimate child didn't matter. He could still beat Leon on his own. Tiffany, who had studied psychology, saw Ulysses's vengeful look and knew he couldn't be persuaded.
Since that was the case, Tiffany had nothing more to say. She turned to leave.
Seeing her about to go, Ulysses quickly said, "Tiffany, as long as you stay away from Leon, I can guarantee you won't be in any danger." "No need," Tiffany replied calmly, turning down Ulysses' offer.
But Ulysses wasn't ready to give up. Watching her walk away, he called out, "Tiffany, the doctor said even if Leon wakes up, he might have memory loss. Aren't you scared he'll go back to how he was before? Can you be sure Leon will always have you in his heart? Remember how you divorced five years ago? How he treated you when you got married? Tiffany, open your eyes!" Ulysses' words hit Tiffany hard. She remembered all the pain she had gone through. But she wanted to give Leon another chance. She wanted to take one last gamble.
"I believe in him." With that, Tiffany disappeared from Ulysses' sight.
A thin layer of mist appeared in Ulysses' eyes, and he gently wiped the corner of his eye with his finger.

It had been a long tsince he had cried.
After all, Tiffany was the first person to show him kindness, without any ulterior motives.
"Tiffany, you're still too naive," Ulysses murmured.
When Tiffany got back to the hospital, she ran into Emery at the entrance.
They both froze for a second before Emery rushed over. "Tiffany!" Tiffany was startled by the sudden hug. She took a few steps back but managed to catch Emery.
"You're going to fall like that," Tiffany said helplessly.
"I trust you to catch me." Emery laughed, letting go of Tiffany and cupping her face, looking at her for a few seconds.

Tiffany smiled and hugged Emery's arm, resting her head on it. "I'm really fine, and I'll take care of myself." Hearing Tiffany's words, Emery didn't press further and followed her to the hospital room.
The three kids looked towards the door when they heard it open.
"Emery?" Sam and Flora's eyes lit up, their round eyes blinking as they rubbed them, almost thinking it was an illusion. "Yes, it's me!" Emery extended her arms, bending down slightly. The two kids immediately ran into her embrace.
"Good kids!" Emery patted their heads, looking at them lovingly.
Barry stood by the bed, looking a bit uneasy. He hadn't met Emery before, Samany Sameand Flora's reaction, but seeing he knew this pretty woman must be Tiffany's good friend. Barry hesitated, but Emery, holding Sam and Flora's hands, walked over and spoke to him first. "Hi, Barry."

"Tiffany, it's great that all three kids are with you now." "Yes, if Leon wakes up, everything will be perfect." Tiffany walked over to them, looking at Leon with a pained expression.
Emery patted her shoulder, comforting her, "It'll be okay. He'll get better." Tiffany nodded.
Suddenly, Sophia burst in, exclaiming, "Tiffany, something's happened!"
