Chapter 629 Kill Me, and You’ll No Longer Be Distressed

She looked at the buddies standing next to her as the faces of those deceased buddies flashed across

her mind. Only then did she realize how stupid and ridiculous she was. “Let’s go…” she said before

passing out instantly as the words used up all her strength. The few mercenaries held her up and left

with one of them carrying her on his back.

Their movements didn’t disturb Veronica’s actions, but how could she not understand the meaning

behind Xavier’s words with her cleverness? Her nose twinged even more. Tears kept welling up in her

eyes, and her heart ached so terribly as if it was being ripped apart. Overwhelmed with guilt and self-

reproach, she felt deeply indebted to him.

“Bear it for a moment. Your wound is bleeding too much.” She wiped her tears away with her right hand

before producing a lighter from her pocket. After darting a worried look at him, she stuffed the thin shirt

she had taken off in his mouth.

Knowing that she was doing all this to stop his bleeding, Xavier was very surprised. At the same time,

he nodded, but he didn’t have the strength to speak. And besides, he couldn’t speak with her shirt in

his mouth for fear that he might bite his tongue in pain.

Veronica aimed the lighter in her hand at his wound. Not daring to hesitate, she lit up the lighter right

away, producing a small flame that was followed by a searing sound.

“Aaaah…” Xavier let out a gut-wrenching scream while curling up in pain. “Don’t move!” Veronica held

him down and prevented him from moving to avoid stretching his wound and causing the bleeding to

continue.

Naturally, it was very effective to burn his wound to quickly stop the bleeding and cause the wound to

scab over with gunpowder, but Xavier looked increasingly pale. Veins stood out on his forehead, and

he trembled all over uncontrollably.

“Just put up with it a little longer.” Seeing how he looked as though he wished he were dead, Veronica

subconsciously held him in her arms and patted him gently on the shoulder. “The pain will go away

very, very soon…” she said as tears ran down her cheeks.

Her approaching caused her faint scent to linger around Xavier’s nose. The familiar scent worked

miraculously like a sedative, diverting his attention and easing the pain in his wound. Gradually, he felt

like it didn’t hurt that much anymore. He quietly lay on the ground and stopped struggling madly.

Only then did Veronica get up and pull her shirt out of his mouth. Then, she put the shirt behind his

back and tied them to the wound, finishing the makeshift bandage with a knot. After doing all of this,

she slumped to the ground listlessly and looked up at the sky. The sun was sinking in the west, and

night fell.

The bugs were singing in her ears, and several fireflies flew in the grass while illuminating the dark

night with a faint greenish glow that made the dark night seem especially beautiful. The wind slapped

the tree leaves and rustled them, like a lively tune that slowly brushed one’s worries away and calmed

a restless heart.

Sitting beside Xavier, Veronica watched the fireflies hop around and chase one another in the woods.

They flew freely in the air, looking so carefree that it filled people with envy. She mumbled, “You’ve put

me in a difficult position. How am I gonna face Matt?”

Xavier went to great lengths to get rid of Matthew, but he also risked his life to protect her. He wanted

to kill her husband and the babies in her womb while trying to protect the wife of his enemy.

Veronica sensed the mixed feelings and anxiety within her at this moment, but she seemed to feel

Xavier’s emotional struggle and pain as well.

“You can… kill me… so that you’ll no longer… be distressed.” Xavier lay feebly on the ground as if he

had exhausted all his strength by speaking.

Breathing weakly, he stared at the fireflies in the night sky while listening to the sound of the wind

brushing gently against the grass. His hearing weakened, and his vision started to blur until he fell into

boundless darkness…
