A Wound that Never Heals

Chapter 236 He Has Jumped Down With Her

The wind was particularly strong on the rooftop of the hospital, snow was falling, and it was freezing since it was the middle of the night. All that showered down onto Darlene together.

As for the people who rushed to the rooftop, they froze in the middle of it, not daring to go a step closer to Darlene for fear of triggering her.

There were railings around the edge of the rooftop. Darlene was sitting inside the railing with her legs dangling over the edge before everyone got there.

Hearing the sound of their hasty footsteps, Darlene turned around, only to find a lot of people showing up behind her in the dark.

The light was dim on the rooftop even with all the flashlights that the people who rushed up turned on.

Alerted by the footsteps, Darlene then stood up.

But her movements were very slow, probably because she was not in a fit state now.

After standing up straight, she put her arm on the railing, which was only at her waist height, so as to support her body a bit.

The wind was so strong that, the moment she leaned out of the railing, she felt like she could be blown down by the wind at any time.

His face darkening, Gustave walked forward subconsciously while calling out her name, “Darlene.”

But Darlene tightened her grip on the railing while turning to look at him.

“I’ll just stand here for a while. Don’t come over.”

Gustave’s mind went blank. The more he tried to stop her, the more difficult he found it to say the appropriate things.

And since it was so late now, the police wouldn’t be able to get here right away.

That also meant they would have to wait for all the rescue equipment to be set up for quite a while.

His eyes darkening, Gustave chose his words with great care. “Darlene, Dr. Elicott has put a lot of effort into saving your life. Do you wanna make his efforts all in vain?”
