On the other end of the phone, Neil sat on a bench by the roadside as his gaze was fixed on the leaving ambulance. "Congratulations," came his dull response. 1
Although Mommy and Nellie were saved in the end, h e still felt guilty.
He did not expect that Aura would be so cruel to Nellie.
If it was not for him, if he had not asked Nellie to reunite with that trash of a Joshua, this might not have happened.
Thinking about this, Neil's mood soured.
Not noticing his glum expression, the two security guards still excitedly announced the good news," Thanks to you, we can report for work at the Lynch Group tomorrow!"
"If you need help in the future, just tell us!" 2

"How is she?" asked Joshua in a hushed voice as he stood in the corridor.
"The doctor said it’s an extreme response to fear. She took her medicine and fell asleep." Luna scrunched her eyebrows slightly and glanced at his tightly bandaged palm. "How's your wound?"
"It's fine." The man looked at her. "Thank you."
Regardless of her purpose, she did use her life to protect Nellie, and he saw it with his own two eyes. 1
