As she laughed, her respiratory tract suddenly constricted and she began to cough violently. Pink blood
foam quickly filled her oxygen mask
“Scarlett!”
Dev’s face paled as he quickly knelt down and pressed the bell to call the doctor. He grabbed a tissue
and opened the oxygen mask, catching the blood phlegm she had coughed out.
Dev trembled as the tissue and his fingers were stained with blood.
He raised his other hand, wanting to help her wipe away the blood at the corner of her mouth, but the
more he wiped, the more blood came out…
The blood flowed down her cheeks and rolled down, wetting her clothes and the pillow.
Pieces of dazzling red pierced his heart, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.
When the nurse heard the bell ring, the attending doctor and the director immediately came over.
Upon seeing Scarlett coughing so severely, Lanny immediately instructed the doctor to rush her to the
emergency room.
The people in the ward rushed in, panic-stricken, and then hastily retreated. Dev, however, remained
kneeling.
The world seemed to have gone silent, leaving only him. He stared at his hands, covered in blood, in
disbelief…
His tall, straight frame shook uncontrollably, his entire body chilled and writhing as if he had plummeted
into an abyss.
It devoured him bit by bit, like a black hole, making him deeply comprehend that the one he had
safeguarded since childhood was truly leaving
Not leaving him, but leaving this world, forever, never coming back.
Something dropped onto the back of his hand, quickly soaking up the blood that was beginning to
congeal. When Susan returned, upon seeing Dev in that state, her resentment towards him gradually
faded away.
If not for the five-year separation they were forced into, she would have realized how deeply he loved
Scarlett and they would have been able to live out their lives in peace.
However, fate was ever-shifting. Not only did the heavens prevent them from reuniting, but they also
cruelly snatched away
Scarlett’s life….
Upon thinking of this, she broke into tears, yet she managed to stand and give Dev a comforting pat on
the shoulder.
“Let’s go to the emergency room and wait for her…”
Before she entered the ward, the nurse told her that Scarlett had been sent to the emergency room due
to a sudden cough. When she saw Dev kneeling motionless on the ground, she halted her original
intention to run toward the emergency room. Dey acted as if he hadn’t heard a thing, averting his gaze
to the pair of bloody hands he had been staring at
Sighing deeply, knowing he could not face the truth, Susan turned and walked towards the emergency
room.
The lights in the emergency room were blazing, signaling that they were in the midst of emergency
treatment. She had no idea if Scarlett could make it through this.
She leaned against the wall and crouched in the corner, staring at the door.
Only when the emergency light turned green did she respond and stand up straight.
Lanny emerged from the emergency room, accompanied by a group of doctors in white coats, the door
slowly closing
behind them.
When she saw Susan whose eyes were completely red, Lanny suddenly did not know what to say. From NôvelDrama.Org.
“D-Dr. Lanny, Scarlett… How is she?”
Leaning against the wall, Susan forced herself to stand and, her voice trembling, asked
Lanny looked up at Susan and took a deep breath.
After a few seconds of silence, she remained resolute and said to Susan, “Miss Croft, quickly bid her
one final farewell…”
Upon entering the emergency room. Dev heard the news and his body swayed, nearly causing him to
fall.
His face was so pale that the blood seemed to have been drained, almost to the point of transparency.
Staggering, he walked over to Susan, who was being held in Lanny’s arms, unable to draw breath. He
held his palm and said to Lanny with a trembling voice, “TU go see her first…”
Lanny nodded and assisted Susan in sitting down on the bench. She then took out a tranquilizer and
administered a small dose to her.
The dosage was minimal, yet it was enough to stabilize Susan’s mood, soothe her, and aid her in
bidding farewell to Miss
