I roared in anguish, heartbroken and suffocated.
Bittersweet memories of Elena growing up replayed in my _ head, tormenting me relentlessly.
The explosion was so violent, and I wasn’t with her when it happened.
How scared she must’ve been!
I wish I could’ve died in that car with my dear Elena!
Who could be so cruel as to cause that explosion?
The uncontrollable pain turned into resentment. I suddenly turned to
Caleb and growled through gritted teeth, “Did you do it? The explosion?”
He looked at me, stunned, and then frowned tightly. “Although I hate
Harlan, I would never hurt a child. We’ve known each other for such a long time already, Debra. You should know that I’d never do that!”
“No, I don’t know!” I roared.
My mind was a complete mess. I didn’t know if I should believe him or not.
If it was anyone else, I might have believed it.
But it was Elena, my daughter!
Whenever I thought about the fact that my daughter was no longer on this earth, I felt suffocated. My chest was so stuffy, as though someone had shoved a Large mass of cotton down my throat, making me unable to breathe.
Elena never even got to meet her father yet, which had always been her wish.
I gasped for breath and leaned against the wall for support. My heart seemed to stop pumping blood into my veins, causing my hands and feet to suddenly cramp up. Cold sweat covered my back and forehead.
Sensing that something was wrong with me, Caleb threw his arms around me and shouted at the nurse, “She needs help! Go and call Brian over now!”
The nurse hurried down the corridor and did as she was told.
Two minutes later, Brian arrived. When he saw me like this, his expression became very serious and he immediately administered a tranquilizer on me.
My short, staggered breathing finally steadied.
Everything around me began to blur. When I lay back in bed, the last thing I saw was Caleb leaving the ward. That bastard! I hated him
He was the one who killed Harlan and Elena! He was a fucking murderer
After what felt Like an eternity, I slowly recovered.
I often tried to wander the hospital, but I could never find a peaceful, quiet spot. There were nurses everywhere I went.
