Chapter 1188: Heart-Wrenching Pain
The man sneered and said: In this world, there aren’t that many lucky people. Even if they survive a plane crash, they would be gravely injured, drifting at sea for so long in that condition. Even if they reach a nearby island, survival is impossible.The small islands near that sea area are all isolated. A seriously injured person drifting to any of them, without food or water, unable to receive treatment, even an iron body couldn’t endure it.
But another voice kept repeating: Even if there’s a one percent chance, she can’t give up. Miracles are indeed rare, but as long as you firmly believe in a miracle, Heaven might truly grant your wish.
At times she felt that Matthew Saxon was still alive; at other times, she felt the chances of survival were slim. Hope would ignite, then despair would follow.
Her heart felt as if thrown into an icy pool and then pulled out and placed into hot water, enduring endless agony every second.
In the confined space, her heart felt stifled. As soon as the plane landed, she got off right away.
After exiting, she found a café at the airport to wait for the next flight.
"Young Madam, what would you like to drink?"
She had no appetite, felt unable to drink anything. But seeing George’s worried eyes, she hesitated and said: "Just a glass of milk."
"Just a glass of milk? Is there anything you’d like to eat?" Seeing her weary face, pale and bloodless, George frowned slightly, showing a hint of concern.
Scarlett Yates shook her head: "Just a glass of milk is fine. I have no appetite."
"Alright, I’ll go queue up." George didn’t persuade her to order food. With her current condition over the past few days, even drinking a warm milk was something, as it wasn’t mealtime yet.
The ordered drinks and food needed to be paid for and collected at the counter.
Though airport items were expensive, the limited choices meant quite a few people were queued at the counter.
There were eight or nine people ahead of George.
Scarlett remained seated, watching the bustling world outside the glass window. Seeing several couples pass by hand in hand, her eyes involuntarily dimmed.
Especially when she saw a boy playfully pinch his girlfriend’s nose and then affectionately tousle her hair, her nose tingled, and her eyes grew moist.
Matthew Saxon used to love doing that to her too.
The memories surfaced uncontrollably in her mind. Thinking of the past, her heart felt as though it were being sliced by knives.
Feeling distressed after watching for a while, she took a sip of hot water from the table. Just then, she overheard a conversation about a plane crashing into the sea.
"Have you heard? A flight to A Country, number X, crashed into the sea a few days ago, and many people died."
"Such big news, how could one not have heard? There were many elite professionals on that flight, and almost all of them perished. It’s a significant loss of talent, and most regrettably, it’s said that the President of the Saxon Clan was on that flight too."
"Yes, it was Seymour’s President, Matthew Saxon. He was the dream lover of every woman in Z City, such a handsome person gone to waste. This news must break many women’s hearts."
"So young, yet already the president of a large corporation, extraordinarily handsome. It’s truly regrettable that such a man died. Heaven is indeed unseeing."
