“Aaron... save me.”
Kathy became weak as she was scared and she almost wet her pants.
Beth pulled her hair brutally and her eyes were full of hatred.
“Kathy, will you be buried with my brother?”
Aaron was stunned when he heard that.
“Beth, don’t you dare!”
“Stop it!”
Beth was no longer weak. She said in a hoarse voice, “Stop it? Aren't you going to marry Kathy? I won't let you. I want Kathy to die with Jacky!”
Aaron couldn't bear it, but he didn't dare to provoke Beth who was mad. After all, people would do many crazy things after losing their minds.
Aaron's gaze changed and he finally found a trace of sanity.
He controlled his emotions and said coldly, “Don't.”
“Even if Jacky fell into the sea, don't you want to salvage his body? He was not afraid of death because of you. Don't you want his body?”
“Do you know how cold it is in the deep sea during winter? Do you want his body to be eaten by sharks?”
Aaron was like the devil from hell, and his voice was ghastly and horrible.
Beth still listened to it. She tugged at Kathy, whose body was as stiff as stone.
Body?
Ah... her brother was gone.
Didn't she want Jacky's body?
Yes! She wanted it!
She couldn't let Jacky be buried at the bottom of the sea and became a wandering ghost.
She would bring Jacky back to Taylor Town.
Moreover, the water was really cold.
He was alone underneath, and he would be cold and painful.
He was only eighteen years old, and he must have wanted to go back to Taylor Town.
The stagnation on Beth's face slowly melted.
Her distant sight was pulled back to reality little by little, as if her soul had turned back.
She said numbly and tremblingly, “I want him, I want my brother.”
The fingers pulling Kathy’s hair were loosened weakly. Finally, she compromised again, pushing Kathy back to Aaron’s arms.
Beth stood on the cliff, the wind was blowing with vengeance, and her pale face was covered by her hair.
She tried her best to stabilize her body and said toughly, “Aaron...”
Suddenly, her hoarse voice became very low, very soft and inaudible.
A little inadvertently, this hoarse voice was torn into several pieces by the strong wind.
Aaron first checked whether Kathy was injured, then he met Beth's line of sight.
At this glance, his breathing was choked, as if a stone was pressing his chest.
She stood in the gloomy sky with disheveled hair. Behind her was endless darkness, and her clothes were stained with blood. She seemed to be a wisp of a lonely soul, and her thin and weak body seemed to be about to break in the fierce cold wind.
The wind was too strong, and she was too thin, like a blank sheet of paper.
She was like a wisp of lonely soul without desire, scattering in the air with the wind.
She was silent in the vast expanse of heaven and earth, and the surroundings were too quiet. It was so quiet that he could hear her laborious breathing.
An unstoppable panic suddenly rose from Aaron’s heart. At the thought that she would go with the wind, he was anxious and nervous, and his chest was in pain.
“Aaron...” Beth still stood there and she whispered softly.
“I believe you for the last time.”
“I’ll release Kathy and you two can be together, while you have to help me find Jacky's body.”
“From then on, I will not show up in front of you even if I die. I won't bother you anymore. You help me find Jacky...”
Once upon a time, when she looked at him, her eyes were as clear as the waves, full of love.
Now those scorching love had receded and solidified into a pool of stagnant water.
