After graduation, she then joined Disheng Financial Group as its HR head.

He, too, entered Mu Group and became Mu Yazhe’s personal assistant.

He only had her in his eyes all along.

Why was that man so foolish?

She suddenly sat up straight and looked toward the windows. Dawn was breaking over the horizon, yet her heart could not awaken from the darkness.

Her heart had died.

No longer did it have any life.

Her head bowed; the tears in her vacant eyes seemed to have dried up as she could no longer squeeze a tear!

She abruptly removed all the tubes, needles, and respirator attached to her and got off the bed with great determination.

Even when her movements tugged at her injury and blood oozed out as a result, staining her clothes and flowing down her thighs, she seemed to be numbed from it.

She stumbled forward, slowly making her way to the bathroom while holding the wall for support.

Her haggard and disheveled appearance was reflected in the mirror when she entered the bathroom; those eyes, in particular, no longer had any life in them!

Hallucinations appeared in front of her right then.

Aaron appeared to be facing her from the mirror; she nearly immersed herself in the tenderness in his handsome face.

“Wanrou, leave with me, okay? Let’s go somewhere far and live a blissful yet ordinary life; shall we?”

“Shall we?

“Shall we…”

The man gently asked repeatedly.

Tears slipped out of her eyes as she involuntarily reached out to him. She seemed able to feel the warmth of his hand when her fingers grazed the mirror.

“All right.”

A soft smile spread across her face; her eyes’ ever-so-gentle tears were about to spill.

As if nestling in his arms, she longingly stuck her face to the mirror and murmured weakly, “Aaron, I was wrong and I’m really repenting now! Please don’t leave me… It’s all my fault that you’re dead; I did you wrong, so please forgive me…

“…”

She broke down in tears. “I was wrong. You’ll forgive me, won’t you? Take me away, okay?”

“Silly.” He grinned. “Give me your hand; I’ll take you away.”

“Mm…”

“Don’t be scared; I’ll protect you forever…”

She smiled tearfully. Her face finally had some color to it as she nodded fervently. “Okay!”

“Fourth master, we’ve just received a report from your men: The two kids are still missing without a trace. This bodes ill.”

“What do you mean?” Mu Lianjue squinted as he clutched his phone tightly.

“There was an accident on the road; the gas tank leaked and exploded. By the time we got there, the vehicles have already fallen off the cliff. We found traces of pursuit during the site investigation! There’s presumably a skirmish!”

“The vehicles fell off the cliff?!” The unexpected news surprised him.

“Yes!”

“What are the chances of survival from that fall?”

“None at all; the chances are extremely slim! That area is surrounded by mountains. If they fell off the cliff, it’s impossible for them to survive.”

“How can you be sure that they fell off the cliff?”

“Even if they didn’t, they must go through a jungle to escape. With wild beasts lurking there and the cold temperature at night, their chances of survival are even slimmer!”

He snorted in reply. “Quickly find those two children! I want to see them, dead or alive!”
