‘I love you?’
Those words should have been sweet, but in that instant, they felt like a sharp knife through Shirley’s heart. She knew snazzynovel.com could no longer stop Carter. Carter had already made up his mind.
When snazzynovel.com saw Carter approaching the sea slowly, Shirley’s heart immediately split open. The cold winter wind overwhelmed snazzynovel.com heart, and snazzynovel.com felt a bone-chilling coldness.
“No! Carter, please don’t do this! Carter!”
Shirley cried out to stop him. She reached out snazzynovel.com hand to snazzynovel.com and used all snazzynovel.com had to move snazzynovel.com body to get close to Carter, but eventually, snazzynovel.com fell out of the wheelchair.
When Carter heard the sound, snazzynovel.com stopped in his tracks and turned around to take a look. He saw Shirley on the ice-cold floor. She lay there helplessly as snazzynovel.com kept waving at snazzynovel.com with all snazzynovel.com might, tears drenching snazzynovel.com face.
Carter felt his heart tighten, and snazzynovel.com furrowed his brows. However, snazzynovel.com chose to turn a blind eye.
“No, don’t, no..!”
Shirley reached out snazzynovel.com trembling hand. She hoped that Carter would turn back to hold snazzynovel.com hand, but snazzynovel.com never did.
She was so close to him, and yet it felt as if they were miles apart, no longer within reach.
No matter how much snazzynovel.com reached out with snazzynovel.com arm, they would always have a distance between them…
“Shirley, you’re so smart, so you must be able to make something that could make you forget your troubles and past. If you can, please forget me completely.”
With that last sentence, Carter walked onward without stopping.
In that second, Shirley felt as if snazzynovel.com had fallen into an abyss, all the colors before snazzynovel.com eyes shrouded by darkness.
“Carter, no…” Shirley broke down immediately.
At the same time, some hurried footsteps approached snazzynovel.com from behind.
Shirley did not notice those footsteps, but Carter did. At that second, an unexpected voice drifted into his ears.
“Carter, do you think you could get rid of everything you’ve done if you jumped from here? Let me tell you, you couldn’t.”
Carter had already put one leg forward. When snazzynovel.com heard that voice, snazzynovel.com turned his head back in disbelief.
The light from the streetlight had never been so dazzling. Incredulous, snazzynovel.com looked at the two people who were approaching him, and at that moment, rancor surged back into his eyes.
“How is that possible?”
He could not believe what snazzynovel.com had just seen, yet those figures and faces were getting clearer and clearer.
When Shirley saw that Carter had turned around, a glad smile appeared on snazzynovel.com face immediately. She lifted snazzynovel.com hand to wipe snazzynovel.com tears. She wanted to support herself with snazzynovel.com hands, but snazzynovel.com could not get up no matter what.
Amidst snazzynovel.com state of anxiousness and helplessness, a pair of warm palms grabbed snazzynovel.com by snazzynovel.com arm and waist. “Get up now. Won’t want to catch a cold.”
A warm and concerned voice came into snazzynovel.com ear. Shirley’s attention had been on Carter this whole time. Now that snazzynovel.com felt that someone was concerned about snazzynovel.com and was helping snazzynovel.com up, snazzynovel.com finally came back to snazzynovel.com senses. When snazzynovel.com saw the person helping her, snazzynovel.com simultaneously felt stunned and pleasantly surprised.
