Chapter 140 Who Did It?

Jonathan lay in a state of semi–consciousness, grappling with the reverberations of the impact and the resulting discomfort.

Her anxiety dissolved as she discerned no signs of fractures, releasing a weighty exhale.

Despite the mishap, the culmination proved unexpectedly favourable.

At last able to ease her tension, Milly experienced a sensation akin to her bones disintegrating, her form quivering uncontrollably from the ache.

The emergency services promptly arrived, swiftly conveying Jonathan to the nearest medical facility.

Milly’s relief was palpable as she exhaled deeply.

Jonathan, engulfed in a daze, was lifted onto a stretcher, struggling to maintain coherence amidst the acute

agony.
