Chapter 505 “Lamont is Dead”
“If you feel like your illness is burdening the people around you, then get better quickly.
“If you feel like your identity brings misfortune to the people around you, then find a way to get rid of that identity.
“It’s not easy to come into this world, so you have to live for yourself once. It’s not cool to just give up and
surrender to destiny without a fight.
“Even if you have to leave this world, you can’t do it in such a pitiful way.
“Next, you need to take care of your body, and have confidence in yourself, and your confidence will also infect the people around you, making them confident and courageous.”
“Paige, thank you.” The girl was touched, and her voice was filled with gratitude, “Do you know that no one has ever said these things to me in all these years?”
She was like a puppet on a string, being controlled and commanded since childhood, told what to do and
what not to do. Everything was planned out for her.
Various constraints bound her.
No one had ever told her that she could live for herself too.
“Take a rest first.” Paige checked the time. It was already after three in the morning.
“You can sleep on the bed next to you.” The girl’s voice was even gentler than before, clearly treating Paige as
her own. “The bedspread and blanket on the bed have been washed by Nate, and they are very clean.”
“No need. I’ll just close my eyes and rest.” Paige sat on the chair, leaning against the wall in a cool and calm
manner.
Through a glass wall, the girl could feel Paige’s cool aura. Their personalities seemed to be quite compatible.
Another hour passed, and it started to rain outside. The cold wind seeped in through the window, bringing a
hint of chill.
Paige heard the girl’s cautious movements next door and opened her eyes, asking softly, “Not feeling well?”
“It’s… fine. The girl almost gritted her teeth. She did not expect the toxin in her body to strike again. For the past year and a half, she had been living through such torment repeatedly, endlessly in pain…
“Give me your hand.” Paige guessed that the painkiller she had given earlier was working, and that pill, combined with her special medical tools for cauterization, could force out some of the toxin in the girl’s body.
Of course, it was just some.
The girl was already in so much pain that her body was trembling. She reached out her hand, and Paige’s slender fingers landed on her wrist. As expected, the toxin had been pushed to her chest and needed another push to force it out.
Suddenly, a sound of something falling reached Paige’s ears.
The girl saw her most precious possession fall to the ground and tried to pick it up, but she was too weak…
“Did something fall?” Paige asked softly, “Do you need any help?”
“No need…” The girl reached out to pick it up, but she fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
At this point, Paige could no longer sit idly by and got up to go to the next room.
The girl heard someone knocking on the door and immediately said, “No need, leave me alone…”
Her voice was too low and completely drowned out by the wind and rain outside. Paige didn’t hear it and just
said, “I’m coming in.”
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, the girl quickly raised her voice, “Don’t come near me!”
Paige smiled, “Afraid of dragging me down?”
“Everyone who’s seen me ends up in a bad way and gets chased after…”
She thought this would make Paige back off…
But Paige just grinned, “Oh, that’s exciting.”
The girl was speechless.
Paige stepped inside and saw the girl’s back as she fell to the ground, apparently trying to get the necklace
