She looked very calm. “I’m sorry, Wesley. You should go back first. I can’t leave Jasmine here all by herself.”
Wesley frowned deeply. “Moses is a madman. He kills local civilians whenever he wants. Now he even bombs the protection zone. You can’t guess what crazy thing he will do next.”
He held Nella’s hand tightly. “Listen to me. Come back with me. What Moses did this time has sparked global outrage. He won’t last long. After Moses is dealt with, I’ll come back here with you, okay?”
Nella still shook her head. “But by then, I won’t be able to find her.”
Wesley wanted to say more, but Nella was rarely this stubborn. She refused to listen to him.
‘If I can’t find her, I won’t go back. Even if it’s her body, I have to see it with my own eyes. I’m sorry, Wesley. I don’t want to drag you into this. You should leave first.”
Wesley didn’t expect Nella to be so firm about Jasmine. His frown grew deeper and deeper. In the end, he let out a sigh.
‘Fine, I’ll go with you.”
Wesley! You…” Nella wanted to refuse, but he cut her off.
‘If you don’t go back, I won’t go back either.
‘Sunny, I won’t try to talk you out of this. You don’t try to talk me out of it either, okay?”
He reached out and wiped the dirt from her face and said, “Come on. I’ll go with you.”
Nella didn’t argue with Wesley anymore. She nodded. After saying “thank you” to him, she didn’t stop to rest and quickly walked toward the protection zone.
By the time they reached the protection zone, several hours had already passed.
What they saw were the broken ruins left behind, along with the volunteer teams still working nonstop,
At that moment, Nella felt like her legs were frozen in concrete. She stood there and could not move at all.
The tears she had been holding back the whole way finally fell.
Her heart felt like it had lost its blood supply. Her mind blanked, and everything in front of her went blurry, then clear, then blurry again..
That helpless, choking feeling made it seem like even breathing took all her strength.
She didn’t know how long it took before she slowly calmed down from that shattered wave of emotions.
She clenched her teeth and kept moving forward.
All of a sudden, a familiar figure appeared in her sight.

He was wearing simple work clothes, covered in broken pieces and dust. The silver glasses he always kept neat were now coated with a thick layer of gray dirt.
He held a shovel and dug wildly, trying to clear the rocks and dust.
In places where shovels and machines couldn’t reach, he used his bare hands to dig.
As one body after another was carried out, the despair on his face grew deeper.
“Alfred?”
