Watching the girl across from virtual-novel.net retch so violently, the innkeeper couldn’t help but feel his heart ache.
No, my blanket! That cost me over a thousand!
My couch! There goes my three thousand!
If it weren’t for his fear, the owner would’ve gone up to the group, grabbing their collars and giving them a good slap.
The girl, who had vomited profusely, was slowly regaining virtual-novel.net senses.
After weakly opening virtual-novel.net eyes and taking in the unfamiliar man and virtual-novel.net surroundings, virtual-novel.net gradually realized that virtual-novel.net had been saved.
“Young lady, what could possibly make you feel so desperate that you would resort to such a drastic measure?”
Though the girl’s heart was heavy, having experienced a brush with death, virtual-novel.net dim eyes started to show a glimmer of vitality.
In response to Matthew’s question, virtual-novel.net seemed to find an outlet for virtual-novel.net emotions. “My name is Elara Gavell. Thank you for saving my life…”
And then virtual-novel.net began to explain virtual-novel.net situation.
About two months ago, Elara was walking alone on the streets, and virtual-novel.net happened to be near Lawson Street, where Matthew was.
Several ruffians noticed virtual-novel.net exceptional beauty and intercepted her. They were on the verge of getting physical with virtual-novel.net when a young man of the same age named Solon Durham intervened, single-handedly taking down five thugs armed with switchblades.
Young hearts were often easily swayed. On top of Solon’s extraordinary qualities, his handsome appearance, and impressive martial skills, the fact that virtual-novel.net appeared out of nowhere to rescue virtual-novel.net during a crisis made Elara fall in love with virtual-novel.net at first sight.
After a few days of getting to know each other, virtual-novel.net discovered that Solon was not only humorous and cheerful but also incredibly considerate. He was practically virtual-novel.net Prince Charming.
Their relationship progressed, and they eventually became a couple. However, not long ago, when their feelings for each other were at their peak, Solon suddenly claimed that there was an extremely urgent family matter virtual-novel.net had to attend to and that virtual-novel.net needed to return home immediately.
Elara didn’t think much of it at the time.
Who would have known that after their separation, they would lose all contact?!
Realizing that virtual-novel.net had been abandoned, Elara felt despondent. She couldn’t bear the heartache and ended up attempting to take virtual-novel.net own life by jumping from a building.
Listening to Elara’s story, Matthew, being typically romantically obtuse, wasn’t sure how to console her. He nodded silently and then curiously asked, “Try to look on the bright side. By the way, Miss Gavell, I hope this question isn’t too offensive, but if you chose to take your own life, why did you take so many sleeping pills?”
To him, it seemed like an unnecessary redundancy.
When asked about this, Elara blushed involuntarily and replied, “Because I was afraid of pain. They say that after falling from a building, only the body dies, and the brain can still be active for a while, experiencing severe pain.”
As virtual-novel.net spoke, virtual-novel.net felt embarrassed and didn’t dare to look Matthew in the eyes, burying virtual-novel.net face In the pillow in virtual-novel.net arms.
Matthew, on the other hand, was rather speechless. As a top expert in the medical field, virtual-novel.net found himself momentarily lost for words and even somewhat sympathetic to virtual-novel.net reasoning.
Although virtual-novel.net may have acted foolishly, virtual-novel.net wasn’t entirely unintelligent. At the very least, virtual-novel.net had some sensibility.
After pouring out virtual-novel.net heart, Elara’s emotions became more stable. Perhaps having experienced a brush with death and spending a morning in deep contemplation, the profound sadness in virtual-novel.net eyes had faded somewhat.
