Seeing my mate in so much pain, I couldnât help but feel terrible.
I regretted saying such a cruel thing to her.
No matter how angry I was, I shouldnât have said any of those words.
Fortunately, after Brian administered a tranquilizer on her, Debra finally calmed down.
âCaleb, you can leave the room now,â Brian said.
âDebraâs condition isnât good.
I have to conduct further tests on her.
You should leave first.
â
I nodded and walked out of the ward in a daze.
âWhatâs wrong?â Carlos frowned and asked with concern as soon as he saw me.
I grabbed his arm and asked anxiously, âCarlos, was there a child in the car that exploded? Itâs Debraâs daughter, Elena.
She said that
Elena was in the car.
â
âWhat?â Carlos gasped in shock.
âThere was a kid in the car?â
I nodded.
He thought about it carefully and then shook his head.
âI donât know if there was a kid in the accident.
Adam has kept this matter under wraps, and his officers are all over the scene.
â
He glanced at me and added cautiously, âBut I saw what happened.
The car was completely burnt.
No adult couldâve survived, let alone a child.
If there really was a child in the explosion, Iâm afraidâ¦â
His voice trailed off, but I understood what he meant.

If the child was in the car, she definitely wouldâve died.
An unbearable heartbrokenness weighed down on my chest, suffocating me slowly but surely.
âThis is bad, really bad!â Damien also felt terrible.
I had felt this way before, back when my son was seriously ill.
But how could this be?
Confused, I asked Damien, âWhatâs wrong with us? Why do I feel so strongly about this child?â
Damien sighed helplessly.
âMaybe itâs because she was Debraâs.
â
I fell silent.
Debra mustâve hated me to the core now.
With a sigh, Carlos patted me on the shoulder and said, âCaleb, have you forgotten that Debra used you?â
I shook my head wordlessly.
