Chapter 425 The Fall (1/2)
It felt as though time had stopped in this space. In his current state, Darren could only feel strands of warmth next to him while the rest was ice cold.
”Hey, are you okay?”
From somewhere in the darkness, a hand reached forward and grabbed Darren's arm.
Darren shivered when he felt how cold the hand was. Without looking, he knew that the hand belonged to the beautiful girl with a pale face. As for his two companions, Timothy and Abelard, they had fainted earlier. They had been unconscious ever since.
”I am fine,” Darren answered softly. He felt quite frail at the moment.
”I never thought that we would die together so soon.” Hailey's voice was filled with bitterness and frustration.
Darren's heart twitched when he heard Hailey. After a brief pause, he said, ”Every time we meet, you speak of fate and inevitability. Why is that? And what do you mean by saying that we would die together so soon? You sounded like we would die together sooner or later.”
”Are you sure that you want to know?”
”Yes, I want to know. Please do enlighten me.”
There was nothing but dead silence as Darren's voice faded. Hailey's and Darren's breaths were the only audible sounds.
”It is so cold,” Hailey said after a while.
”Tell me why. I need to know.” Darren pushed with the hope that Hailey would give him a straight answer.
”Have you seen the well?” Hailey did not answer his question. On the contrary, she asked Darren a question.
”Well? What well?”
”The well where you can see the future. Elsa must have seen it.” Hailey's voice was getting weaker and shakier because of the low temperature.
”Elsa has seen it? Hold on a second! What are you talking about?” Darren grew even more curious when Hailey mentioned Elsa.
”I don't know what she saw. I only saw yours and my future. I even saw what would happen to the people in this world. I cannot share how it ends because everything will change if I tell you.”
