Chapter 403

Daniel was left speechless by Stella's blunt words, unable to muster a response.

The Earth wouldn't stop spinning, but its tectonic plates could clash and shatter at any moment. He wanted to do better, to increase the odds of survival for as many people as possible.

This was an unprecedented disaster, and if no one stepped up, humanity faced extinction.

He had no family, no children, no attachments, so he chose to take on the nation's mission.

Even now, with newfound familial ties, they seemed trivial compared to his duties.

To say he had no regrets would be self-deception.

But fate often plays cruel tricks. In his youth, a mission had cost him his love, and now he didn't even have a chance to make amends with his daughter. "Stella, I'm sorry."

He too wished for retirement, but there was simply no time.

Everyone's choices differed, and what Stella couldn't do wasn't necessarily wrong.

In fact, many had chosen the same path as Daniel, which was why there were so many survivors.

Daniel was coughing violently.

Stella picked up the cup on the table, only to find it empty.

"I'll get some water."

Unfamiliar with family bonds, she quickly grabbed the cup and left, not knowing how to interact with Daniel.

The water room required waiting in line, and seeing that it would take a while, Stella opted to use the restroom instead.

After relieving the pressure on her bladder, she was about to leave when a few women entered, whispering, "Did you see that young woman enter the commander's ward? She looks just like the commander's wife, and it was Sunny who brought her in."
