Chapter 140 Who Did It?

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

With haste. Milly inspected his legs, fearing the direst outcome.

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.

Amidst the commotion, he caught a glimpse of a graceful silhouette amidst the crowd’s periphery, a pang of melancholy washing over him.

Even amidst the bustle and the physical distance, he discerned the anxiety etched in her gaze.

Attempting to articulate, a lump formed in his throat, rendering him speechless.

As consciousness dwindled, the figure gradually faded into the distance…
