Surprised, Ralph took a moment to respond, but Lily had turned to leave without waiting for his answer.
Chump drove while Heather sat in the backseat, holding Hannah in her arms. The younger sister’s breathing was so weak that it might stop at any time.
“You wretched girl, don’t die on me, okay? You can’t die without my permission, do you hear me?” She muttered threateningly, “If you dare to die, I won’t let you off easily. Do you hear me? You’re not allowed to die!”
However, Hannah neither yielded nor defied her this time. She simply gave no response.
Driving solemnly, Chump glanced in the rearview mirror and was shocked.
Heather had always been calm and did not even cry, even when seriously hurt. However, she was weeping now, and her beads of tears were falling onto Hannah’s face.
As Lily emerged from the gate, Alexander hurried over, having sensed something was not right. “What’s the matter? Heather’s car just left. Why did she leave you here?”
He was so worried that he almost barged into the house and was relieved to see her coming out.
Alexander carefully looked her up and down and let out a sigh of relief, seeing she had suffered no injuries.
“Hannah committed suicide,” she said as she looked at him.
She was shocked to see such a bloody scene. ‘She bled so much. I’m afraid she won’t be able to make it.’
