Chapter 731 She Was Injured (1/2)

Beryl's eyes lit up with surprise, as she excitedly asked the saleswoman to affirm it, ”Is it really for me?”

”Of course.” The saleswoman replied, ”You can still come to draw in the future. If you are the 999th passer-by, you can win a reward again.”

This was instructed by the woman who came over earlier

and paid enough money to fund their fun activity, specifically arranged for the little girl.

The saleswoman couldn't help but wonder why the woman would do that? What was the relationship between the woman and the little girl? Why would the woman be willing to treat her so well and not want her to know about it?

Could she really be doing it out of the goodness of her heart as a gesture of kindness? Someone who would willingly give without asking for credit or acknowledgement for their selfless deeds?

”Thank you so much!” Beryl was over the moon with happiness, feeling blessed to have such 'good luck'. After waving goodbye to the saleswoman, she carefully carried the box under her arm to the hotel where she and Ancho were living in.

She felt a rush of excitement just by imagining how delighted her dear friend Ancho would be to share the ice cream with her.

'Will Ancho be thrilled by my surprise?

There are four ice creams in the box. If Ancho and I each take one, there will still be two left.

Sadly, there isn't a refrigerator in the hotel and if we don't eat them in time, I am afraid they're going to melt. I wish I was still at home so I could share the rest with daddy and... mommy.'

The thought filled Beryl with deep sorrow, 'But I don't know whether mommy can have ice cream because she is pregnant...”

Drown in her deep thoughts, she didn't notice any difference of her environment. But all of a sudden, she heard a strange sound, as if something heavy fell from the sky. As she was lost in deep contemplation, she hadn't been paying attention to her surroundings and she failed to hear the voice that was calling out to her.

”Beryl, watch out!”

All of a sudden, she saw something white, flash past and pull her away into an embrace before she could even react!

”BANG!” It was the sound of something heavy falling from above making a loud, deafening noise followed by the sound of bones breaking.
