Chapter 350

Nighttime.

Eloise received a call, it was from Max's sister, Olga. Her voice was choked with sobs. "Eloise, my brother is not doing well. Could you see him one last time?"

Eloise was shocked. The last time she saw Max was on the day of their college reunion.

Olga wept. "He had a car accident. He's at death's door, but he kept calling your name. He was found holding the amulet he gave you."

Eloise's phone slipped from her hand.

Late at night, she appeared at the hospital in black attire. In the end, Max never saw her one last time.

A white sheet was covering his face. The Velona family was mourning deeply inside. Disregarding Max's character, he had always been the pillar of the family, and now, he was gone.

Upon seeing Eloise, Olga burst into tears again. "Max, Eloise is here."

Eloise slowly walked over. Under the harsh white light, she gently lifted the sheet. Max's face had been cleaned. Aside from being pale, he looked just as he did in life.

Eloise gently stroked his face, murmuring, "Max, our past grievances are long gone, I've long since forgiven you. Why did you have to do this?"

He had an accident near her home. When the ambulance arrived, he was clutching the lucky amulet.

Eloise felt a complex mix of emotions. She had loved Max, and also deeply hated him, but all these feelings were about to disappear with Max's death, because there would be no more Max in this world.

Tears slid down her cheeks. She slowly covered his face with the sheet again, whispering, "Goodbye, Max."
