Chapter 705 Extra Story 16 Of Sean And Cloris (2/2)

Before long, the Lu family's doctor came around with an ambulance and rushed Leon to the hospital for urgent treatment. Cloris and Sean both accompanied Leon, who had fallen unconscious by then, in the ambulan

ew that if it weren't for Sean, Leon would still be alive.

After another fierce argument between her and Sean, she ran out of the house, not even grabbing a coat as she ran into the freezing cold outside. She could hear the wind whispering in her ears.

In a trance, Cloris assumed it was Leon's gentle voice calling out to her. She kept running towards the voice with her eyes closed believing that she would end up in his loving embrace.

Meanwhile, without awareness of the road or the rain, an unsuspecting car sped over the highway, lights on full beam.

Cloris stood still in the middle of the road, and she didn't even open her eyes.

The moment the car hit her, she heard a man's voice, ”Cloris!”

Then everything in the world went quiet.

The impact flung Cloris's body into the air and then into the cold river below.

Unfortunately, the whole thing unfolded right before Sean's eyes and he jumped into the river as fast as he could. They spent days searching for her body, but she was nowhere to be found.

After weeks of failing to find her body, they had no other choice but to presume her dead. Sean felt as though she had taken his soul with her when she died.

He spent the rest of his days, wallowing in sorrow, no different that a lifeless person. Aimlessly wondering around like a boat with no anchor, he carried on his mundane existence without a shred of hope for a better day.

There once lived a little girl in his heart. The little girl turned into a butterfly and flew away, leaving behind an unfillable void, that swallowed all love and hope alike, causing his heart to become a barren wasteland.

Sean thought he was going to spend the remainder of his pathetic life like that until he death would come for him eventually. But that all changed when he met another woman.

The woman's name was Emily.

That was how their story began.
