Three Years Later, He Came Back Begging novel Chapter 295

Helen fell completely silent. Only the faint, uneven sound of her breathing could be heard through the phone. It took her a long time to finally stammer, "What happened? Why is he suddenly dying?"

No matter how many times she had cursed Lawrence over the years, Helen had never actually wished death upon anyone.

Life and death were forces far beyond the control of ordinary people.

No matter how much she vented her anger or ran her mouth, she would never lightly condemn someone to the grave.

Bonnie sighed. "I don't know the details. Something bad must have happened, otherwise Hannah wouldn't have turned herself in. She didn't seek me out to clear up the past, and she certainly didn't come to apologize. She came to beg me to see Lawrence."

"Helen, he might really not make it."

Helen couldn't find her voice. Her mind suddenly flashed back to that day at Bonnie's apartment—Lawrence holding Bonnie, weeping bitterly, entirely consumed by guilt and remorse.

She had felt a vicious sense of satisfaction then. But now, confronted with this brutal truth, her emotions twisted into a complicated knot.

He wasn't just some garbage ex who had cheated and betrayed the woman he loved. He was a deeply tragic figure, a man forced into a corner by an impossible moral dilemma. He had sacrificed himself, only to drag too many people down with him. You couldn't just judge someone like that with cold logic.

He was unforgivable, yet it was impossible to harden your heart enough to tell him to go to hell.

Helen had no idea what to feel anymore.

After a heavy silence, Bonnie let out a long, shuddering breath. She looked out the passenger window at a busy pedestrian street.

A young girl walking alone with her headphones in, a boy unlocking a rental bike, an old man holding a child's hand, and a couple leaning happily into each other.

They were all so incredibly, vividly alive.

Back in the snow-covered courtyard in Silvania, she had told Lawrence something.
