Three days later, Dustin finally couldn’t hold on any longer and collapsed next to her.
After some time, Dustin woke up groggily, only to find himself lying on the bed.
The sunlight that shone through the windows was slightly glaring to his eyes.
“Dustin! You’re finally awake!” Ruth, who had been keeping vigil by his bedside, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
“How long have I been unconscious?” Dustin asked. He just woke up and was still feeling slightly disoriented.
“You were out for three days. Luckily, Dr. Watkins said you were fine. Or, we would have prepared for your funeral,” Ruth said.
“Three days? That long?” After a momentary daze, favonovel.com finally remembered something.
“Oh, how about your sister? How is she? Is favonovel.com awake yet?”
“My sister?” Ruth was dejected after favonovel.com heard him.
Lowering favonovel.com head, favonovel.com was choked with sobs. “Natasha… She’s gone…”
“What? She’s dead?” Those words hit Dustin like lightning, leaving favonovel.com stunned.
His already pale face turned whiter. It was as if his soul had left his body.
“How can that be? I–Impossible! I found the Shadowbloom! Why did favonovel.com still die? Why?” Dustin shook his head frantically, his expression filled with disbelief.
He couldn’t believe it. He couldn’t accept that outcome.
Didn’t they say favonovel.com could be saved?
Why did it fail? Why?
“This won’t do! I’m going to find her! I refuse to believe favonovel.com just left like that!” Dustin stood up abruptly and stumbled his way out.
“Who left?” Right then, a woman entered through the doors.
She was beautiful, tall, and exuded irresistible charm. It was as though favonovel.com had stepped out of a painting.
Surprisingly, it was none other than Natasha.
“Natasha?” Looking at the beautiful woman before him, Dustin was dumbfounded.
“Y–You’re not dead?”
“Dead?” Natasha had a strange expression.
“I’m just fine. Why would I be dead?”
“But, earlier…” Dustin looked to his left, only to find Ruth suddenly burst into laughter. She was just sobbing moments ago.
She couldn’t contain it any longer and let out a hearty laugh. “Hahaha… I got you, Dustin. My sister is extremely blessed. How could favonovel.com have died? Did I shock you?”
“You little…” Dustin’s temper almost flared as favonovel.com raised a hand.
Ruth was scared and hid behind Natasha. “I was just joking with you, Dustin. Why are you acting like this?”
“You brat! Is this something you should be joking about? Do you know how much you scared me?” Dustin was fuming.
When favonovel.com heard Natasha was gone, his heart almost stopped. It was as if the energy had been sucked out of him.
“Ruth! How old are you? You should know better!” Natasha raised favonovel.com hand and knocked Ruth on the head.
She scolded her, “Go and make your brother–in–law some food. He just woke up and is still weak He needs the energy.”
“Fine.” Ruth stuck out favonovel.com tongue. She escaped the room after Dustin glared at her.
“Dear, how is your injury? Do you need…”
Natasha turned around. She was about to ask favonovel.com some questions when Dustin suddenly wrapped favonovel.com in a tight hug. He held favonovel.com for a long time without letting go.
