CHAPTER 772: CHAPTER 772: ELEANOR STERLING WOULD RATHER DIE

Alaric Faulkner looked at Thomas Quincy and asked, "What do you mean by the spread of the poison?"

Didn’t they say the antidote had already been made?

Ronan Keating sighed and said, "She just lied to Franklin Faulkner. To get here and stop your wedding with Giselle Keating, she risked her life to find a way to counteract the poison so that you wouldn’t be threatened."

Thomas Quincy took over the conversation and continued, "Then she used a perilous method. Now her body is riddled with injuries, and if the poison erupts, her life will be in danger."

"How could you let her act recklessly!"

Alaric Faulkner was almost furious. He hadn’t even managed to get an antidote, and now they had let Eleanor Sterling be affected by two kinds of poisons.

"What else could we do?" Ronan Keating sighed, "You know how stubborn she is, Alaric Faulkner. Don’t you understand yet? Eleanor Sterling would rather die than watch you marry another woman!"

Alaric Faulkner was shocked, looking at Eleanor Sterling in his arms.

His eyes revealed pain and a complex emotion, the rims of his eyes a blood-red hue.

Ronan Keating urged, "Enough talk, take Eleanor Sterling to my place and let the Quincy Family Head take a look at her situation."

Alaric Faulkner, hearing this, directly lifted Eleanor Sterling horizontally and turned to walk out.

Several people left in succession, Tristan Keating looking serious as he watched Alaric Faulkner’s figure and then saw the fair wrist hanging down from his embrace, his thin lips tightly pressed.

As if driven by a ghostly command, he stepped forward to follow.

The guests at the scene, under the butler’s arrangement, orderly left the premises.

At the center of the banquet hall, Giselle Keating sat on the cold floor in a bespoke white wedding dress.

Watching everyone leave her, she felt like a clown right now.

She could hardly accept this blow.

The wedding was gone, and even the identity of the Keating Family daughter would soon no longer belong to her.

Why did it have to be this way! She was unwilling!

Tears poured down her cheeks like a flood, and Giselle Keating covered her face, sobbing.

Alaric Faulkner carried Eleanor Sterling into the room, gently placing her on the bed. Gazing at Eleanor’s pale face, a trace of heartache emerged in Alaric Faulkner’s eyes.

"Eleanor, you are so foolish. I married Giselle Keating just to get the antidote for you, putting myself through all that, but now all my suffering is in vain."

Alaric Faulkner held Eleanor Sterling’s hand, placing it against his cheek, his eyes fixated on her, reluctant to look away for a long time.

Now Eleanor Sterling had poison in her body, was he really supposed to let her accompany him to death?

Thomas Quincy looked at Alaric Faulkner and said coldly, "Are you going to let me have a look or not?"

Alaric Faulkner stepped aside a little but refused to let go of Eleanor Sterling’s hand.

Thomas Quincy rolled his eyes, stepping forward to check Eleanor Sterling’s eyelids, then continued to assess her condition before taking out a pill and feeding it to her.

"Cough, cough..." Eleanor Sterling coughed twice, slowly opening her eyes.

Alaric Faulkner immediately leaned forward in concern, "Eleanor, are you alright? How do you feel?"

Thomas Quincy spoke up, "She’s fine, just fainted from the shock earlier. She just needs to rest properly."

After speaking, he noticed that Alaric Faulkner hadn’t even glanced at him, nor did he know if his words were heard, and couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

Thomas Quincy shook his head and turned to leave.

He would not play the third wheel and disturb these star-crossed lovers.

At the doorway, quite a few people were crowded. Ronan Keating looked at Thomas Quincy and asked, "How is Eleanor Sterling?"

Thomas Quincy sneered, "She won’t die."

Ronan Keating glanced at Alaric Faulkner and Eleanor Sterling, knowing that Eleanor risked her life to come here. Now that she was awake, she must have a lot to say to Alaric.

He extended his hand and ushered everyone out, "Everyone out, don’t disturb the reunited couple."
