"Hey... Young Master Kyle?" Silvia approached him carefully as she was very fearful, but Jayden still did not notice her.
He appeared to be too engrossed in the view outside his windows that it seemed like his soul had left his body. Perhaps that was why he seemed unbothered by the strong wind, and also why he didn't notice Silvia's voice.
At that split second, Silvia suddenly felt a twinge of heartache for Jayden. It was the tiniest flash of heartache, so tiny that Silvia did not even realize it.
Silvia glanced at him and ran over immediately to close the windows. She turned around to Jayden's side. "Jayden, do you want to die?"
This time, upon hearing her voice, his eyes lit up.
However, when his gaze fell on her face, the light in his eyes slowly faded away, and finally, there was silence again.
Silvia was not her. Silvia was not the girl he had been waiting for.
The bitterness built up in Jayden's heart. He knew that no matter if he was sick or dead, that girl he was missing, would not care about him at all.
He had known this fact for a long time, but every time he thought of it, he would still feel disappointed.
He didn't know what he was looking forward to.
He didn't know what he was still holding on to.
He didn't know why he tortured himself so badly.
He was tired of this life. He didn't want to think about anything related to that person anymore. Jayden closed his eyes slowly, wishing that everything was over.
"Jayden, can you hear me?" Silvia raised her hand and waved it in front of his eyes. He didn't look too well and Silvia was worried.
He was right in front of her, but she felt that a part of him was gone. He was like a body whose soul had been taken away and he was just living in limbo, floating between life and death.
Silvia guessed that he must be going through some emotional pain, so deep down that, no one else could help him with.
She knelt beside him and patted him on the back of his hand gently with her gentleness. "Jayden, you only live once, there is no second chance at life. This is a quote from a video game that I played."
"After reading this quote, I have always told myself that I should care about my family very much. Look at me, my father died in a car accident, others are trying to take over his company, my mother is lying sick in bed, and I was f*cking raped by an a**hole like you. But yet, I never thought of dying."
"As long as you are still alive, there is hope. When you die, there will be nothing left except for your bones. Think about it, one day, you will end up six feet under, lying in the dirt. At that time, what else can you do?"
Silvia sighed and continued, "Take it easy. Things will get better. Nothing is more important than your life."
Silvia said a lot in one breath and shared her insights with him. She didn't expect that Jayden had fallen asleep on the sofa.
"This b*stard!"
She shared such an important life principle, but he had actually fallen asleep. He did not even hear a single word she had said, so it was impossible for him to even remember them.
Silvia gritted her teeth and fought the urge to kick him, but soon, she realized something was off. When he exhaled, his breath was unusually hot.
Silvia touched his forehead immediately. This time, she felt that her hand was almost burned by his forehead.
