Let's Get Married Chapter 695: Mr. Adonis Passed Away

Mr. Adonis almost has no strength left. Injected so many painkillers, his body is nearly numb. However,
he manages to hold Rex's hand. "Now that you have Lily and Adair, I don't need to worry anymore. You
should take care of yourself and treat them well. They are people by your side for the rest of your life,
understand?"

It sounds like his last words. Rex is too sad to listen to him.

"Come on. You still have a lot of time."

Mr. Adonis forces a smile, "Right. I will see Adair become a young man. I want to hear him calling me
great grandfather for a few more years!"

It's rare for them to stay together, so Mr. Adonis tells him a lot of things about the past and present,
some of which Rex knows, and some he doesn't. Rex has never been so close to him.

He starts to understand the sufferings of the previous generation and gets to know how Mr. Adonis
made it through.

Mr. Adonis is in high spirits when they are chatting. At least his voice is stable. Rex thinks that he will
make through the evening. However, he doesn't know that Mr. Adonis’ heart aches as he speaks.

At 2:30 in the morning, Rex lies on the couch beside the bed to rest for a while. Not long after he closes
his eyes, he suddenly hears a harsh sound from the machine above his head.

He is awakened. He gets up and walks to it. It's a machine that measures Mr. Adonis' heartbeat and
blood pressure. The line on the screen, which should be fluctuant, is turning straight.

He knows what it means, so he immediately presses the emergency button at the bedside.



Within half a minute, the door is pushed open. A group of nurses in blue aseptic suits and doctors in
white coats rush into the room.

Rex is pushed away the bed. He wants to get closer but is stopped.

"Family goes out please. The patient is in danger and needs emergency treatment!" A doctor stops him
and then starts to save Mr. Adonis.

He quickly unlocks Mr. Adonis’ bed and removes the apparatus connected to his body. They
immediately push the bed out of the ward. Rex follows them. Then he sees Karl from afar, who is
standing at the door of the emergency room.

"Rex, hold on."

Karl doesn't say anything else.

He directly goes in to change his clothes for emergency treatment.

The light on the door of the emergency room is on. It's frighteningly red. Rex has seen this light so
many times these days that once he was driving on the road, he mistook the red light as an emergency
light. He felt a little flustered and sick at that time.

It's quiet in the corridor. He waits in silence, feeling that an invisible hand is pinching his throat. He can
barely breathe.

It seems that someone has notified the family. Half an hour later, Mr. Adonis hasn't come out. But
Amelia, Florence, and Lily have all arrive at the hospital. The only one who doesn't come is Mr. Adonis’
wife.

They stand outside the emergency room. Nobody talks. Amelia is crying as she could no longer hold
back her tears. Even Florence, who has always been indifferent, is now sitting on a bench quietly.



Lily walks to Rex. He looks terrible. His face is slightly swollen due to strong emotions. The rims of his
eyes are black and his lips are pale. His hands are tightly clenched on his thighs. His back is so stiff as
if it is about to break.

Mr. Adonis suddenly had an attack and was sent to the emergency room. It happened when Rex was
by his bed.

Lily doesn't know what she can say to make him relax. It seems useless to say anything. They could
only wait for the doctor to come out and tell them the result.

Death is truly cruel.

Another ten minutes later, a doctor wearing a mask and a hat walks out of the room. They can only see
his eyes.

Amelia immediately walks to him. She wants to ask about Mr. Adonis' condition. However, she can't
make more sounds after saying, "How..."

The doctor understands what she means and shakes his head, "We're going to give a critically ill
notice. It's not over yet. We're still trying. Please be prepared."

As he finishes, the doctor turns around and enters the emergency room. The door is closed. They are
separated. It is so close, but it feels like two worlds.

Everyone heard it, but none of them speaks. Amelia is still crying, but her voice is lower. The
atmosphere is as gloomy as that in the graveyard. Their hearts are extremely heavy.

Rex suddenly finds that the red light on the door is not the most terrifying. It's more horrible to see the
light go off.

As if sensing his thought, the moment Rex thinks of it, the red light suddenly gets out.



The red light on their faces is gone, leaving paleness.

Rex raises his head and stares fixedly at the tightly closed door of the emergency room, as if he wants
to see through it.

Lily has never seen such a look in his eyes. No matter how desperate or hopeless he was, he had
never shown such an expression. Sorrow and hope, the extreme emotions that burst out suddenly
intertwine. The contradiction is so strong that Rex can't bear to face it.

...

The door is opened. It's Karl.

All of a sudden, everyone goes silent.

Karl glances at everyone and his gaze finally stops on Rex. He stares at Rex and says in a low voice,
"Sorry. We... We lost him."

As she hears what Karl says, Amelia's heart is broken. Tears well up in her eyes. She is in bloods of
tears. The breath held in her chest is suddenly let out. She cries, desperate and sad.

"No! Dad... Dad..."

Florence also bursts into tears. She still has the strength to hug Amelia, but her eyes are also filled with
sorrow.

Lily looks round and suddenly thinks of a sentence in a book.

Have you ever seen the bottom of the ocean?



It's at the end of the book. She feels that no one could see the bottom of the ocean with their own eyes,
but at this moment, she understands what the author means.

Yes, she has.

Everything in front of her now is in the depths of the ocean, the dark and highly stressed seabed.
Everyone's heart is overloaded with sorrow. There is neither sound nor breathing, as if nothing exists
anymore.

Everyone seems to be sealed in a bottle in isolation. Although things around them keep going on, they
can feel nothing but the pain in their hearts.
