I refused to believe what the nurse said. In a state of madness, I yanked out the infusion tube from my arm and stumbled out of the ward.
“Wait! Where are you going?”
The nurse anxiously called after me and hurried to catch up to me.
I opened the door and tried to shake her off, but I accidentally bumped into someone in the process.
That familiar scent… It was Caleb!
“Debra? You’re awake!”

The moment he saw me, there was a flash of joy in his eyes.
But when his eyes swept over to the wound on the back of my hand where the infusion tube had just been pulled out, the joy in his eyes was quickly replaced with anger
“You just woke up, yet you’re so eager to Leave,” Caleb remarked with a sneer. “What’s the matter? In a rush to bury Harlan?”
I immediately looked up at him with boiling resentment.

He lowered his head guiltily. “I didn’t know your daughter was also in the car. I thought she was at home.”
I felt as though someone had stabbed my heart with an invisible knife.
At that moment, I felt as though my soul had left my cold, stiff body.
Yes, my daughter—-my Life, my Love-was also in the car.
And I’d never get to see her again.
I couldn’t help but burst into tears of despair. My hot tears trickled down my cheeks and fell on the cold floor.
“Elena… She’s gone… My daughter is gone..
