Chapter 921 Seriously Injured
Crystal's POV:
As soon as I threw myself on the bed, I immediately checked Arron's condition. He was still in a coma. Fortunately, his breathing was stable, but he had gauze dressing wrapped around his head and feet. His little face was pale, and he also had a wound on his cheek.
When I touched his head, my heart ached, and tears welled up in my eyes. He had never been this severely injured before. He would at most lose his balance and fall on the ground sometimes.
When I recalled the blood in the forest and the corpses in the morgue, it still made me shudder. I didn't know what had happened to Arron and Beryl on their way to the capital. I just knew that he was lucky he managed to escape.
"His leg is broken and he has a bruise on his head. The cut on his face is a little deep, but it has already been stitched. He should be able to recover quickly, so you don't need to worry," Joanna comforted as she walked up to me. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
I heaved a sigh of relief and let out a weak smile. "Thank you so much for your help. I really can't imagine what would happen if you weren't around."
I didn't know that the person on the phone was Joanna. The way she spoke seemed familiar to me, but I couldn't pinpoint exactly who it was. In the past, when she would dress up as a man, she would deliberately lower her voice. She used her normal voice on the phone this time, so it was no wonder I couldn't recognize her at first.
"You're welcome. This is probably the work of fate. How else would we be able to meet again?" Joanna smiled.
She had changed a lot. Compared to how she was five years ago, I could tell that she wasn't as reserved as before, and that made it easier for others to understand her feelings.
"If it weren't for this little kid, you probably wouldn't have come to see us." Harry snorted.
I let out an awkward smile. "Not really. We would still be able to meet again even without this incident."
After all, important figures from all of the packs in the country were required to come to the military parade. It would be impossible not to see Harry or Warren there.
I always wanted to avoid seeing them, but the more I wanted to escape, the more I had to face them.
I had been so determined five years ago. But now, I was terrified.
I feared too many things, and each of them could evoke all the beautiful, yet painful memories of the past.
I was like a frog trapped at the bottom of a well. I never dared to jump out and move on with my life. All I could do was lie to myself that everything would be okay as long as I stayed there, hidden away from it all.
But when I saw an old acquaintance, noticed a familiar place, and inhaled the familiar fragrance of the flowers, the feelings that I had been suppressing burst out, and my body couldn't help but tremble uncontrollably.
The sky in the imperial capital was as bright as ever, and the people living here were as lovely as before.
I might be able to temporarily forget what I wanted to forget, but the memories would never be erased.
So I probably shouldn't run away anymore.
Harry didn't care much about my ambiguous answer. After a while, he walked up to Joanna, held her in his arms, and said, "Joanna took over as the Alpha in her pack. We're together now." "You're married?" I asked, my eyes widening in surprise. Why didn't I hear any news about this? An Alpha's marriage should be reported.
Harry looked embarrassed as he cleared his throat and replied, "Not yet, but we will get married soon."
He stole a glance at Joanna, almost as if he was checking her respond to his words.
Joanna didn't say anything though. She looked very calm.
Just then, Harry burst into laughter and shifted his gaze at me. "Will you come to our wedding, Sylvia? Oh, wait... We should call you Crystal now, right? You're wearing a mask right now anyway. No one will recognize you."
"We can talk about that later." I smiled. I didn't dare give them an affirmative answer.
