Chapter 1213


    Surprised, Ralph took a moment to respond, but Lily had turned to leave without waiting for his answer.


    Chump drove while Heather sat in the backseat, holding Hannah in her arms. The younger sister''s


    breathing was so weak that it might stop at any time.


    "You wretched girl, don''t die on me, okay? You can''t die without my permission, do you hear me?" She


    muttered threateningly, “If you dare to die, I won''t let you off easily. Do you hear me? You''re not allowed


    to die!"


    However, Hannah neither yielded nor defied her this time. She simply gave no response.


    Driving solemnly. Chump nced in the rearview mirror and was shocked.


    Heather had always been calm and did not even cry, even when seriously hurt. However, she was


    weeping now, and her beads of tears were falling onto Hannah''s face.


    As Lily emerged from the gate, Alexander hurried over, having sensed something was not right.


    "What''s the matter? Heather''s car just left. Why did she leave you here?"


    He was so worried that he almost barged into the house and was relieved to see hering out.


    Alexander carefully looked her up and down and let out a sigh of relief, seeing she had suffered no


    injuries.


    “Hannahmitted suicide,” she said as she looked at him.


    She was shocked to see such a bloody scene. ‘She bled so much. I’m afraid she won''t be able to make


    it.’


    "Who?" Puzzled, Alexander could notprehend what she said.


    Catching herself, she said, "Let''s go to the hospital."


    Heather was waiting outside the operating room when Lily and Alexander arrived at the hospital. She


    sat unmoving with a horrified expression while her entire body was shaking.


    Lily had never seen Heather looking so fragile before. Troubled, Chump stood beside the woman. He


    did not care about Hannah, but he worried that Heather could not cope if anything happened to her


    sister.

    On the way here, Lily told Alexander what happened, and even though he did not experience it


    personally, he was somewhat astonished. He assumed his family''s rtionship with the Riggs family


    was merely a marriage of convenience. That was why he was surprised when Heather''s younger sister,


    about whom he knew nothing before, dered her undying love for Ralph.


    Not longter, Ralph reached the hospital as well. Having rushed over in a cab, he was afraid to go


    near the others and could only stand a distance away in embarrassment.


    Alexander saw him but pretended that he did not. Thinking that what she witnessed might be too


    overwhelming for her, he gently held Lily with one arm.


    Soon, the light outside the operation room went off, and a doctor emerged, spreading her arms as she


    shook her head apologetically.


    This was expected, but it was still hard for Heather to ept.


    Ashen-faced, Heather would have dropped to her knees if not for Chump. She lunged toward the


    gurney as it was wheeled out of the operating room and lifted the white cloth. Hannah''s face, which


    resembled hers, was now lifeless. She could neither hear


    Heather''s voice nor do anything for Heather anymore.


    “Hannah Riggs, you''re not allowed to die!" She let out a guttural wail before copsing.
