Married by Mistake: Mr. Whitman’s Sinner Wife novel Chapter 882

Chapter 882

He raised his bloodied hands only to find that the mint-green hairband he had kept carefully with him was now dyed red.

With trembling fingers, he raised the hairband to his lips. “Don’t die. Please, you can’t die.”

He murmured under his breath as his eyes reddened further.

“You promised you’d pester me forever. You can’t go back on your word now.”

Felipe’s voice shook as he repeated himself, unable to put the panic within him to rest.

Just then, the operating room’s door opened to reveal a doctor in a white coat. Felipe immediately ran toward him. “Professor Quinney, how’s Cathy?”

The professor shook his head. “I’ve got the bullet out, but since it hit her heart, I can’t bring her back to life. I’m sorry, but Miss Cathy has passed.”

Frozen in place, Felipe felt his world crack as he stood rooted to the ground.

“How did she just get shot out of the blue? Could it be the Stygian Johnsons?” The doctor sighed, his heart clenching at the loss of such a young life.

Felipe could not answer him, for he knew the answer.

He was the one who killed Cathy.

He was the one who ordered them to shoot.

He thought that she wanted to betray him, that she wanted to destroy everything he had created. Yet the truth showed that she had never betrayed him at all, nor had she let her feelings for him go.

That was why she turned around.

It was him who turned around too late.

It was that split second that he realized how much he cared for Cathy.

He had no idea when it started, but Cathy seemed to have silently made her way into his heart…

Felipe felt the ache in his chest grow by countless folds as he slowly walked into the empty operating room.

He wanted to see her one last time.
