I Don’t Need Your Fake Love by Melandia

Chapter 77

With the aftershocks finally over, a heavy silence set in. “Help me!”

Grace was buried under the wreckage and surrounded by darkness. Her breaths were getting shallower.

Lost in time, she was jolted back to reality by a child’s cry. “Kendra! I want Kendra!” She came to with a start, shouting as loud as she could, “We’re here… Please help!”

Her shouts drew the rescue team, who rushed to their location. They started clearing the rubble, and a thin ray of light pierced the darkness.

A glimmer of hope sparked in Grace’s chest, but it was dashed when she heard the rescuers. “Mr. Kaufman, Dr.

Parrish and Dr. Jermyn are trapped under the same slab. If we lift one side, the other will crush the other… We have to choose one.”

Omar choked with tears, “Save Kendra! I need Kendra!”

Omar’s plea stabbed Grace’s heart. For a moment, she felt everything slipping away. Her own child had picked someone else over her in a time of crisis.

Antonio’s response was slow in coming.

The rescuers‘ urgency grew. “Mr. Kaufman, we can’t wait! If another tremor hits, we’ll lose them both!” It was then that Antonio’s voice cut through the tension, cold and firm, “Save Dr. Jermyn.”

Just before the darkness took her, she heard Omar’s sobs. “Kendra, I thought I’d lost you forever. Promise me you’ll never leave me again!”
