Chapter 184 I Will Give You My Life

He had asked Swain to hurry back to the training facility and find Yohannes, but Swain had yet to return.
Maverick knew his own body, and he probably wouldn’t be able to hold on until Gwendolyn came home from dinner.

Is this really how I’m going to die?

He was unwilling to accept it, yet he was powerless to change it.

As of now, he did not even have the strength to write a farewell letter.

Earlier, that had been the first time Gwendolyn had hugged him since the divorce.

No, she wasn’t hugging me. She was only patting my head.

Charles was right. In the end, Gwendolyn saw Maverick as nothing more than a pet.

She no longer loved him.

As Maverick pondered on this, his consciousness gradually grew hazy, and there were black spots in his vision.

“Gwendolyn…”

I’ll give you my life, Gwendolyn, but can you give me your love in return?

Resigned to his fate, he closed his eyes and let his arms hang limply at his sides. He looked serene.

All was tranquil around him.

Apart from the curtains rustling in the breeze, the only other noise in the room was the sound of blood dripping from his fingertips onto the floor, one drop at a time.

In the car, Gwendolyn suddenly felt a sharp, intense pain in her heart.

She pressed a hand to her chest, her delicate face turning pale from the pain.

Charles noticed that something was off with her and quickly asked, “Gwen, what’s wrong? Are you unwell?”

He leaned forward, wanting to help her.

Gwendolyn reached out to stop him. After taking a few deep breaths, she felt the pain gradually subside.

Why did I feel pain in my chest all of a sudden?

She had never had any heart-related illnesses, and the pain this time was inexplicably excruciating.
