Until Edward Stephens slowly, limply, collapsed onto her.
She felt everything around her slow down, the information received by her brain was like frames of filtered photos; she couldn’t feel the wind blowing past, nor hear the urgent footsteps outside the door, she couldn’t even sense the weight of Edward Stephens’ warm body collapsing onto her...
The thick dripping sound, like a scene in a movie deliberately stretched and slowed, gradually and slowly yet clearly reached her eardrum.
Drive her insane while she’s alive...
The deepest nightmare in her memories fused into the most terrifying reality, a reality more frightening than a nightmare.
"The suspect is here!"
"The hostage! The hostage has been found!"
"Call the doctor up here quickly! Someone needs first aid!"
Daisy Ginger heard the sound of people rushing in from outside the door, but she couldn’t see anything, someone came over to release the chains cuffed to her hands and feet, she instinctively hugged the now gradually cooling body of the man on her, tightly gripping his lapel, subconsciously believing that as long as she held onto him , he wouldn’t leave her again.
"Miss Ginger, we need to perform first aid on Mr. Stephens! Please let go!"
Daisy couldn’t hear them, she only felt someone pulling at her, trying to separate her from Edward Stephens; a beast-like growl emerged from her throat as she screamed, "Don’t come near!!!"
Everyone wanted to separate them, everyone! He obviously loved her so much, he had been hurt so many times for her, he had desperately saved her so many times! Why say he harmed her! Why separate them! Why drive them apart!
Why did he have to die, clearly... she had only him now, her only remaining love in the world... Why must she be left alone, was she not worth being loved...
Daisy struggled up, holding onto Edward Stephens, unable to see anyone else, she felt as if everyone and everything approaching them were trying to separate them. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⁂𝙣𝙚𝙩
She wanted to find a place to hide, just the two of them, Edward and her, she didn’t want to wait for him anymore, she was tired of waiting, this time, she wanted to leave with him.
All the thoughts in her head were chaotic, nothing but instinct remained, she rejected everyone approaching, the blood flowing from the man’s body completely dyed her red as well; she appeared maddened, looking more insane than a madman.
To prevent her from further harming Edward Stephens, the doctor had no choice but to call people to restrain her and inject her with a sedative.
"No, no, no!" She felt her strength drain away in an instant, she couldn’t hold onto the man’s clothes anymore, even with the sedative injection, she erupted with unbelievable strength, the two nurses couldn’t restrain her.
"Give him back to me! Give him back! Where are you taking him!" She screamed like a madwoman, forcing the doctor to inject her with sedatives once more, and finally, with two doses of sedative injected into her artery, Daisy Ginger lost all strength.
She lay limp on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, she felt dizzy, but more than that, she experienced an indescribable fear and despair.
Once again, she had lost him...
She lost Edward Stephens again...
She lost Edward Stephens again...
