Chapter 330

Eliza's heart sank like a stone, anxiety and unease swirling in her chest, her eyes brimming with deep concern.

Carlos gently patted her shoulder, trying to comfort her. "Even though he got hurt because of you, you don't need to beat yourself up about it." How could she not blame herself? What if he never wakes up? Her gaze turned somber.
