Chapter 1585
Even Silas didn’t know, so probably no one else did. Maybe Eric was really that terrible back then,
wanting to bully her so badly that he sent people after her.
After all, he despised her so much at the time, even if he had a bit of a liking for her, it couldn’t
overcome the long-standing hatred he had for her. Besides, he was in love with Stella without even
realizing it.
Stella, unable to find any answers, slowly lowered her eyelashes and looked at Eric, still bathed in
sunlight. Her icy fingers unconsciously brushed against his face…
As her fingertips touched his cold, stiff cheek, Stella seemed to want to embrace him, but she never
made a move. She just stared silently at him…
After what felt like an eternity, Stella spoke up again to Silas, “Aren’t you going to ask who killed him?”
Silas focused on Stella’s slender figure and sighed softly, “He wanted to protect you, so it doesn’t really
matter who did it…”
Even if Eric had staged it to look like a suicide, no matter how convincing it was, Silas couldn’t be
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfooled. It must have been Eric being too violent, forcing Stella to pull the trigger. But because his
love for Stella was so intense, Eric couldn’t bear to let her take
even a shred of responsibility, which is why he staged it as a
suicide before his death.
Silas pondered for a long time, and if he were in Eric’s shoes, he would have done the same. Some
people’s love is obsessive,
willing to give everything, even their lives…
But this ending brought relief to the departed, yet not necessarily
to the living, especially to the person who pulled the trigger and killed him. So who can really say who
won or lost in this years-long love-hate entanglement?
Silas wouldn’t blame Stella because she was the person his friend wanted to protect. He would honor
his friend’s last wish. But Stella would blame herself, after all, she had killed someone. Whether it was
guilt or fear, these emotions would torment her.
And it was true, when the sound of sirens came from downstairs, Stella’s fingers involuntarily tightened.
She wanted to embrace the person she had once loved before the police arrived, but she never found
the courage.
Until the police came upstairs, rushing towards her and pulling her up, she looked into Eric’s fading
figure and felt a sudden pang in her heart.
She knew the police would take away his body, and from then on, she would never see Eric again…
With an unknown surge of strength, she broke free from the
police’s grasp and rushed towards Eric, falling to her knees and
embracing his stiff body…
She held him, burying her head in the crook of his neck, just like she used to, but she couldn’t feel his
warmth anymore, only cold skin and rigidity…
At that moment, Stella finally realized that Eric was truly gone,
never to return. The man who said he loved her and hurt her was really dead…
Her tears fell like flowing water, “Eric, I’m sorry…”
She turned her head and gently kissed Eric’s pale cheek, then raised her hand and touched the brows
and eyes that were deeply imprinted in her heart…
As she touched his tightly closed eyes, Stella remembered that whether it was when they were young
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmor grown up, those eyes always held complex emotions when they looked at her…
There was hatred, dislike, and a hint of pity. Beneath that pity, there was probably love. She didn’t know
how conflicted he must have been at the time. After all, he despised her so much, yet he also loved
her. How agonizing it must have been for him…
Stella was hesitant to let go, as she delicately caressed his face, but the police urged and pulled her
away, forcefully removing her from the scene…
