No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 336



When the plug is pulled, a life vanishes from this world.

"You should be with her now, see her through to the end," I nudged him.

"I know, I'm heading there now," Mack lifted his gaze to meet mine, "Sorry for the intrusion."

I managed a small smile, "Hoping for a miracle."

Mack didn't reply but stood up to leave. I watched his retreating figure, feeling a stark contrast from the night before.

"What are you looking at? You didn't even hear your phone ring?" Ernest came over, taking the bunch of flowers from my hand.

I didn't know how to explain Mack's situation to Ernest because I hadn't mentioned last night's encounter, and Mack's story was too convoluted.

Mostly, I felt an unexplainable sadness, especially after Mack's words about soon being gone.

"Ernest, why do you think two unrelated people can look so much alike?" I asked him.

"Humans are made of genes. With so many people in the world, it's normal to have similar gics," Ernest responded, very matter-of-factly. Thinking about Mack's reason for following me, I asked, "Do you think you might one day look for my shadow in someone who resembles me?" "Why would I do that?" Ernest asked sharply.
