“Yes,” Sean confirmed calmly.


    Eli wiped the tears off her face.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    In her heart, Sean had always been a dominant and powerful person. Whenever he was with her, he would always smile at her. Although he was sometimes spiteful, he would still dote on her and pamper her.


    The current him, however, gave her a feeling of sorrow and depression.


    “Don’t be afraid. It’s okay, I’m willing to be locked up with you,” Eli said, but all she felt was despair. She choked her sobs back.


    Seanughed. He sounded happy.


    “How could you stillugh? This is all my fault. If I hadn’t made you take care of Natasha, then you wouldn’t have asked Yvonne to push her into the snake pit. If Natasha was fine, then none of this would have happened. I was the one who dragged you into this mess,” Eli said guiltily.


    “My girl was being bullied, if I didn’t stand up for her, then I don’t deserve to be her man. Since that’s the case, you don’t have to feel sad. At most, I’ll just lose my status, but my life won’t be in danger. Our country just doesn’t agree with an affair morally. There’s no legal punishment for it, I won’t die.”


    “But you imprisoned Natasha, and you were going to kill her, weren’t you? That’s a major crime, right?” Eli choked with sobs.


    “I did imprison her, but I didn’t give the order to kill her. That was an order given by Yvonne herself. You need to leave the country first, I’ll send our son over to you. I’ll also give you the credit card. The pin is your birthday.”


    “What will happen to you if I leave? I’m not leaving.”


    “If you don’t leave, you’ll be in even more danger than me.”


    “I didn’t kill anyone ormit any crimes, why would I be in more danger?”


    “Because you’re the center of this mess. Because of you, Natasha was punished. Because of you, Yvonne was cheated on. The citizens of M Country will not do anything to you openly, but I’m sure that someone will try to hurt you eventually.I may not be able to protect you in the future. Be good, don’t let me worry, alright?” Sean said in a low voice.


    “I don’t want to leave, I want to stay by your side.”


    “The citizens will find it even more outrageous if you were to stay with him. Yvonne will gain more sympathy, and this will lead to M Country’s retaliation. You’ll make things worse for him,” Ste interjected.


    “Is my only option to leave? Why am I the one leaving again? Why? I don’t want to go,” Eli cried and fell to the ground, wailing. She hung up the phone because she didn’t want Sean to get upset from listening to her.


    Ste could understand what Eli was feeling. At this moment, she must be feeling very sad, distressed, and helpless. She was probably afraid of the impending separation.


    All she could do now was to wish that time would pass by slowly. It would be enough for her as long as time passed slower. She would be contented even if she could watch him from afar.


    It was just like when Ste saw the bullet pass through the back of Jasper’s head. Back then, she couldn’t believe what had happened,and she refused to face the truth. Instead, she’d rather stay in the moment when she was hugging his body. At least, at that moment, the both of them were still together, even though it hurt so much.


    At least she could still hug him.


    Eli was bawling her eyes out. Ste wanted tofort her, but she was also feeling very sad. She turned her face away and looked at the sky in the distance as her tears fell quietly.


    She never wanted to be pitied by others, because that would hurt her self-esteem.


    But now, she really felt sorry for herself. She was so pitiful that she could do nothing but me God for everything.


    She had defeated the ministers, but she would never be able to defeat God.


    Master Olgic had said that she was too focused on one thing. With a fate like hers, how could she not hold onto something in her heart?


    She felt that the world was a cruel ce, and she couldn’t see the beauty in it any longer.


    “Let’s go, you have to go sooner orter,” Ste said in a hoarse voice.


    Eli held Ste’s hand. “Could we go together? Let’s go to D Country together. With you there, I’ll be more convinced to reunite with Sean.”


    She didn’t want to tell Eli thatshe was going to go be with Jasperafter sending her off.


    Eli had just parted with her lover. If she knew that her best friend was going to die, she would be even sadder.


    Ste squatted down in front of Eli. “Sean will definitely find his way back to you. You’ll just have to wait patiently and raise your child well.”


    “Why can’t you leave with me?” Eli asked in confusion, sobbing.


    “I’m sorry.”


    She didn’t know what else to say apart from apologizing.


    Each day she lived without Jasper felt like hell.


    She was afraid that she’d kill herself in front of Eli ifshe went to D Country with Eli.That would be the biggest blow to Eli.


    “I’m sorry,” Ste kept repeating the same words.She held the back of Eli’s head and pressed her forehead against hers, and she muttered, “As long as you’re alive, there’ll be a day when you reunite. Until that dayes, you have to constantly be a better you.”


    Eli couldn’t say a word. She cried until her head hurt and she started gasping for air.


    She knew that if she were to continue staying here, she would only be a burden to Sean and be his weak spot. She had no choice but to leave…


    On the way back, Eli was crying so hard that she had no tears left. Her eyes were red and swollen as she stared out the window in a daze.


    Ste contacted Allen.


    “I seem to be asking for your help whenever I call you,” Ste said apologetically.


    “I’m happy to do anything for you. Go ahead, I’ll help you as long as it’s within my capabilities,” Allen promised with a smile.


    “Do you remember Eli? I had asked you to help her get to D Country previously. I need your help getting her over there again.”


    “No problem. Where is she now?”


    “She’s still in A Country. She’ll be taking the night flight to Paris, and I need you to get someone to pick her up from the airport there. Then,let me know once you send her off to D Country. Finally, I need you to get her a new identity. I want her to disappearpletely as if she had never existed.”


    “No problem, I know what to do,” Allen said firmly.


    Ste was silent.


    She had owed Allen for too many favors. There was no way she could repay him in this lifetime. “Allen, thank you.”


    Allenughed cheerily and said, “You’re wee.”


    Ste then hung up the call.


    After getting back, she helped Eli pack her luggage and transferred ten million dors to her ount.


    “You don’t have to send me off. You’re still pregnant. You shouldn’t tire yourself out,” Eli told her. Her eyes were still red.


    “It’s fine, I’m past the first trimester anyway. I’ll send you off,” Ste said with a smile.


    This was thest time they would meet, so she’d have to cherish their time together.


    “I hope that we’ll still be best friends in our next life,” Eli said with tears in his eyes. She hadposed her feelings earlier, but she could feel the sadness pouring over her again.


    “Yes, we’ll be best friends in every life. Our friendship willst forever,” Ste replied.


    They took the car to the airport together.


    Eli talked a lot. She kept going on and on about the interesting events in their lives while Ste listened quietly.


    No matter how much she had to say, the time woulde for them to part.


    Just as Eli was about to check in for her flight, she asked, “Ste, will youe and see me?”


    “Tell me your address onceyou find a ce to settle down. Whenever I go somewhere, I’ll send a postcard to you,” Ste responded.
