Chapter 413 Goodbye
A hot tear fell on Nella’s face.
It burned, so hot it felt like it could scorch her cheek.
Finished
“Nella… I’ve always missed you. I missed you in high school, I missed you in college, even during our three years of marriage, I still missed you… And now… I’m going to miss you again…”
Tear by tear, each word he spoke with such difficulty fell onto her face.
“Alfred… Alfred…
“You just promised you’d stay and talk to me. You said you wouldn’t leave me alone here. Are you breaking that promise, too?” Nella said, panicked.
“I’m sorry…” Alfred’s weak voice reached her ears.
“I always lie to you … I always let you down…”
“Then don’t lie to me now!” Nella sobbed, her voice breaking.
She spoke to Alfred in broken, halting sentences for what felt like a long time. Alfred, using the last bit of his strength and consciousness, answered her a few times.
Nella didn’t know how long they lasted, only that breathing was getting harder and harder.
The air around them had almost vanished.
The suffocating feeling, like someone pressing on her nose, surged over her like a flood.
Her consciousness started to fade.
“Alfred… this time… even if you wanted that chance… I… don’t think I can give it to you…”
The choking feeling started to swallow her consciousness.
“Nel… Nella…”
Alfred’s desperate, pained voice swirled around her ears.
She could barely hear it. The voice seemed so far away…
Suddenly, a blinding light appeared above her head.
She struggled to open her eyes, trying to see where she was.
Before her consciousness completely faded, she saw a dog’s head pop up right in front of her.
“M-Marshal?”
As the words fell, her consciousness completely faded.
1:10 pm
ppp.
Chapter 413 Goodbye

Finished
Nella walked for a long time.
Along a dark road, she moved forward in a daze.
She had no idea where she was going, just putting one foot in front of the other like a machine.
Familiar voices called her name from time to time.
She tried hard to recognize them.
Some were her father’s, her mother’s, her grandparents, even Regis’s, and many other familiar voices.
But she couldn’t see anyone.
She just kept moving forward blindly.
Suddenly, someone appeared in front of her. It was the seventeen-year-old Alfred she had first seen in high school.
White shirt, dark suit pants, a clean and calm air, yet still with the energy of youth.
