Chapter 1272: Chapter 1275

They did not see clearly at first. “Boom!” A noise sounded as the place they were standing before collapsed, revealing sharp protruding stones underneath. If they had reacted a little slower, they would’ve been buried under the snow pile.

Stella was still in shock. When she saw Roger disappear from where he was standing, she asked, “Where’s Roger?”

Stella was in a daze. Her vision was very blurry, so she was unable to see sometimes. She lost sight of Roger after all that happened in a flash.

Weston held her waist. “Don’t go there yet. There’s a good chance that he fell inside…”

“If we go there now, we’ll fall with him.”

Stella refused to listen. “But Roger is still there…”

Weston held her firmly. When he saw her blank eyes, he observed her closely. “What’s wrong with your eyes?”

He had noticed something was wrong with her, but his priority was to get her out. There was clearly something wrong with her eyes.

Weston lifted his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, but she did not respond. “You can’t see?”

Stella took a deep breath and avoided his question. Where’s Roger? I’ll go with him…”

“Are you crazy?” Weston lowered his voice and said to her, “Going now is the same as asking for death.

We should go out and find the rescuers now. Go down the mountain with them, and then send a team in to find him. We aren’t professionals. We’ll only drag each other’s feet here.”

“In that case, then why don’t you go?” Stella pushed his hand away. “I won’t leave him behind again…”

She had separated from Roger three years ago. This time, she wasn’t about to leave her family behind again.

Stella’s reaction was not surprising to Weston. He knew she would react this way after knowing Roger’s identity, but he could not just stand by and watch her die.

“Trust me. I’ll bring Roger back. I’ll bring him safely to you…”

“You should go first.” Stella suddenly let go of him and said to Weston, “I know you’re here to find me. I know you want to save me too. Just let the past go. We don’t owe each other anything anymore…‘

“Stella!” Weston suddenly cut her up in irritation. “Are you deliberately saying this to piss me off?”

Stella’s eyes remained blank. “If Roger was really dead, I would never forgive you in my life. But I’m tired now. I don’t want to continue to hate…”

“Weston, you should go. I failed to protect him three years ago. This time, I must protect him.”

The sound of the whistling wind passed between them in the snowy mountains.

Weston heard the slight tremor in Stella’s voice and took a deep breath. He said to her. “You protect him, and I’ll protect you.”

Stella found her way to the place where Roger had rolled down earlier. Both of them were calling out to him, but their voices were covered by the sound of the snow.

After some time, a hoarse and weak voice finally came. Sis, leave me alone. Go…”
