Chapter 1402 You Hate Me Again, Donât You?
Kisa leaned against the rubble weakly, staring at the figure shrouded in a faint light. She did not dare to move. She feared that the figure would disappear like a bubble if she moved.
Iâm having a hallucination. Am I dying? But⦠At least I get to see him.â
Suddenly, Kisa did not feel so afraid or helpless anymore.
She smiled at the figure and muttered, âWill you blame me for not protecting our child?â
The man appeared in front of her as soon as she said that. He knelt down and stared at her without blinking. Under the faint light from the phoneâs flashlight function, the manâs black eyes looked like coal.
Kisa looked carefully into his eyes; there was resentment behind it. She then could not help but smile sadly and said, âI guess I really hurt your feelings, huh? Look at you. You look so angry still, in my imagination.â
All of a sudden, Kisa burst into tears. âIâm so sorry⦠Iâm so sorry⦠I didnât mean to hurt you, Gilbert. I didnât mean itâ¦â
While she said that, she reached out her hand, wanting to touch his face.
But she was scared that she would destroy the illusion in front of her, so her hand stopped mid-air, and she dared not touch him.
âYou hate me again, donât you? Itâs fine⦠Iâm about to die in here anywayâ¦â she said while she looked up. Her vision was becoming hazy, and the ceiling was crumbling. Dirt and rocks kept felling from above.
âYou must be glad that no one will be there to annoy you anymore when Iâm gone⦠Iâm sorry⦠I know youâre going to blame me but⦠Iâm really sorry I couldnât save our childâ¦â
Kisa began to lose consciousness. More and more blood flowed out of her legs while her forehead was also bleeding. Kisa squinted her eyes halfway, staring at the figure she had imagined in front of her, as if trying to remember his face; maybe to remember him even after death.
However, the man had a concerned look on his face and started calling out to her anxiously. Could it be? Is the imaginary figure of my husband actually showing emotions?
Back on the surface, the sun rose in the early morning, and light shone over the restricted zone. The place looked devastated. The Mullen familyâs forbidden area, that was rumored to be a miraculous place, had collapsed overnight. Acres of flowers surrounding the land were destroyed. The plants, the rockery, and the hot springs were all gone, forming a huge pit. The once mysterious forbidden land was now turned into ruins. It looked like the place had been demolished with heavy machinery.
The search and rescue team had arrived the night before. It was dawn before everyone buried in the basement was rescued. Fortunately, no one had been killed. However, each of them suffered varying degrees of trauma.
Leon was the most seriously injured out of everyone. He could no longer move his legs and they were both covered in blood. He was hysterically crying and howling when he was carried out form. the ruins.
Mrs. Mullen Sr. only had a small injury on her forehead thanks to Arthur, but she could not stop shaking and shivering from the shock. She looked at the destroyed land and shouted, âMy husband My husband is still in thereâ¦â
Arthur hurriedly supported her and said, âDonât worry, grandma. The search and rescue team is doing their job. Iâm sure grandpa will be fine.â
Though he said that, Arthurâs words did not reflect how he actually felt; he was uncertain about his grandfatherâs safety as he gazed upon the ruins.
A number of paramedics also arrived at the scene and started to treat everyoneâs wounds. Kelvinâs right leg had been hit by a rock, and it was covered in blood. His head had suffered many injuries, but he did not bother to get it wrapped up. Instead, he limped toward the ruins and started frantically searching through it to find Kisa.
