565 A cursed man (2/2)

”No more lies — go out.” Yet, Morris Liu had got more displeased by her easygoing personality and what was coming out from her mouth now.

How could she enter through the window if they were several floors up from the ground floor? Even if she would use other professional tools, she needed to start from the rooftop and then carefully travel down like a building window cleaner.

To do that, Churu still needed to enter the hospital premises. How could she enter if they banned her from entering until they discharged Morris Liu?

”Hai hai~” Nodding her head, Churu sang her answer as she trudged towards the window. ”I'm going out~” she said as she opened the window.

A sudden gust of wind then kissed her face and brushed her hair. ”Brr... cold,” she complained under her shivering breath.

Seeing this made his brows creased. ”What are you doing?”

”Going out, obviously.” Churu responded as she peeked her head out of the window, checking if there were people that she might give a scare. Leaning further, Churu now has half of her body to have a broader sight around the area.

”Hey, you'll fall!” Seeing her recklessly shooting half of her body out of the window, Morris Liu warned. However, just as he did, the time slowed down as he witnessed her fall out of the window in a slow motion pace.

”Hey—!” His eyes slowly widened in disbelief as his heart pounded harder and harder. Did he just witness a suicide attempt? But...

Morris Liu's mind seemed not to take this data inside his mind. Just seconds ago, he was telling her to go out of this room. But this wasn't the kind of exit he wanted.

He didn't ask her to die, right...? Was he too harsh and insensitive without knowing the personal struggle Churu was experiencing?

Did he caused her death? If he didn't ask her to leave, if he controlled his emotions, Churu wouldn't have to take her lies further, right?

So, it was partially his fault...

For some reason, this triggered the emotions he freshly could feel from way back. The frightening emotions upon hearing the news of Lexi's suicide attempt.

Just the thought of this, his heart felt like someone was clenching it tightly. It was as if a hand was stopping his pounding heart from beating — it was painful.

Grasping on his chest, Morris Liu's breath turned heavier by the second. His heart was in too much pain and yet, the thought of calling a nurse over didn't cross his mind.

The pain of the past and the cause of how it resurfaced was too overwhelming that he gave up on life for a moment. In his mind, Morris Liu accepted that he's truly a despicable, cursed man.

Just as he struggled to breathe, he heard Churu's familiar voice assailed his ears. ”See, I told you — wha — what's happening!?” As Churu climbed over the window, she was instantly alarmed upon hearing the abnormal heartbeat resounding across the room and Morris Liu struggling to breathe.
