The Clutches Of Hell Novel

Chapter 131

Christian knew that she wished to die all along, but it still stung to hear her suicidal attempt from others.

It was as if he set foot into a quicksand trap and the sand swallowed him from all directions. Whenever he breathed, the sandy particles filled his nostril and throat before suffocating him.

Charlotte took a glimpse at him before telling the flustered Gabriella, “It must’ve been hard for you. You should return home now. I’ll permit two days leave for you. And keep this matter between us, okay?”

“Thank you, Charlotte.” Gabriella decided to bite the bullet despite withstanding the pressure from Christian. “But I wanna stay here.”

Charlotte looked at her in silence whereas Gabriella hung her head low without a word.

“Do as you wish.” Charlotte then cast her gaze onto Christian’s soaked attire. “I’ll bring some clothes for you to change into.”

However, his lips pursed into a thin line as he stared at the emergency room quietly. So, she left without waiting for his reply.

Now that Gabriella and Christian were left alone in the corridor, she peeked at him several times. After a moment of hesitation, she held her phone to the staircase to give Vincent a call.

Since it was possible for the surgery to fail, Victoria might want to meet him for the last time.

Meanwhile, Christian stood by the door to the emergency room. Although he felt flustered, cold, tired, and irritated all at the same time, he did not want to sit or change his clothes. He just wished to stand quietly like that.

Even when he witnessed how Victoria betrayed him with his own eyes, he never imagined a world without her.
