Chapter 1199


    "What''s there to fear about death?" Hannah smiled nonchntly. "I feel happy that I can die alongside


    you! Do you know I used to be afraid of dying? I didn''t want to die because I didn''t want to be the


    child my parents abandoned, but it''s different now. I have you, and it''s enough to be by your side. Dying


    with you would be a beautiful thing in my life too.”


    Hannah expressed her feelings while she looked at Ralph gently, her eyes filled with adoration for the


    man.


    However, her words only made him frown deeper, and he could not help but say, “Annie, don''t think


    about this situation that way!


    If we could survive, why should we choose to die? Death is scary, so we should try our best to live.


    "When we''re alive, we can breathe fresh air, eat delicious food, and drink all the wine we want. There''s


    hope as long as we''re alive, and who knows? One day we might be able to turn the tides, right? Life is


    a cycle, and there''s only hope for us if we stay alive!”


    Hannah shook her head and replied, “We won''t be able to live any longer. I understand her. Since I


    poisoned her and wanted to kill her, she would never let us off the hook. Ralphy, I''ll cherish all our time


    together now and regret nothing!"


    "But I don''t want to die!" Her sweet confession did notfort Ralph at all. At this moment, he was


    hungry, thirsty, and afraid, which led him to explode from all the emotions he had piled up within his


    heart.


    "You want to die, but I don''t! I haven''t lived enough! Let''s go and beg her. Wait, no. I''m a part of the


    Russell family, so she can’t kill me this way. If she did, how would she exin it to my family? I won''t


    die. I''ll be okay!"


    That made Hannah widen her eyes to stare at him in surprise. Her lips trembled as she spoke, "Ralphy,


    don''t you want to die with me? Don''t you want to be with me forever?”


    "I want to be with you forever, but that''s different from wanting to die with you. Life is beautiful, so why


    should we die? Annie, you can''t die too. I''ll find a way and get the Russells to save us. I-I''ll negotiate


    something with Heather so we can both live!” Ralph bbered in a panicked state.

    The thought of death terrified him so much that his expression paled while sweat dripped from his


    forehead.


    Hannah just stared at him for a long time without saying a thing. Suddenly, her lips curved into a smirk


    as she scoffed and turned away. She said nothing anymore after that.


    After some time, they heard movements outside the door again, making Ralph regain his energy


    instantly. He sat up straight and said, “Annie. Annie, someone''s out there."


    However, Hannah did not bother to open her eyes at all. Soon, the door opened, revealing Chump, who


    entered with a water bowl. He stood before the two like a tall mountain.


    "Are you here to release us? Heather wants to see us, right? Bring us to her. I have something to tell


    her!" Ralph blurted impatiently, afraid he would die if he spoke any slower.


    In response to his words, Chump just threw him a cold nce and looked at Hannah. His gaze became


    even colder at the sight of her.


    As if sensing his gaze on her, Hannah opened her eyes and looked at him, sneering, "You son of a


    b*tch!"


    Chump did not care about that and just ignored her. With the water bowl in his hand, he said, "Ms.


    Riggs said that you two can''t die yet."


    Then he squatted and squeezed Hannah''s chin while his other hand lifted the bowl to feed her some


    water. However, she turned and squeezed her lips shut, refusing to take it.


    Seeing that. Chump did not force her to drink either and just put the bowl down.


    “Tell her I regret nothing. The only thing I regret is not killing her sooner and allowing you to have the


    chance to rescue her!"


    Hannah gritted her teeth in anger.


    On the other hand, Ralph broke out in a cold sweat because of what she said as he tried to stop her in


    a low voice.” Annie, stop that.”


    ‘What if Heather gets mad and suddenly feels like killing us? Since she said we can''t die yet, she isn''t


    nning to kill us, or at least she doesn''t have the intention now. If Hannah''s words riled her up and


    made her change her mind, we''ll both be dead.’


    "That''s not what she meant! Don''t tell Heather that!" Ralph said while looking up at Chump.
