Karen gave a reluctant nod and found herself suddenly swept off her feet.
Cradled in Jeffrey's arms, listening to the steady beat of his heart, a question bubbled up inside her.
"Jeffrey."
"Mm?"
"What if... it was me who was poisoned, would you—"
"I would!" Jeffrey cut her off before she could finish, giving Karen his answer, "I can't bear the thought of you leaving before me!"
In the past, he never truly pondered the significance of life.
He simply believed that life and death were predestined, so why worry about it?
But since going through so much, having someone he wanted to protect and love for a lifetime by his side, Jeffrey truly feared the concept of "death"!
The idea of being worlds apart was something he absolutely could not accept.
If Karen were to leave first, he was certain he'd follow her immediately!
"Don't... I don't want you to die..." Karen clung to his neck tightly, her tears falling once more.
The loss of Kenneth was something she found incredibly hard to accept.
Jeffrey quickly wrapped his arms around her, "I won't die! I'll never die; I'll always be by your side!"

After Dorothy was treated with the antidote, her vital signs began to improve.
However, her mood...
From morning to night, she hardly ate or drank, just staring at the ceiling.
The rare times she shed a tear were the only changes in her expression.
Karen visited several times, trying to console her, but it was as if she couldn't hear.
Outside, night fell once again.
