Love Coming from the Least Expected

Chapter 575

I couldn’t believe John had the guts to defy Wesley’s instructions. When he fired a shot in Christopher’s direction, I rushed over to his side, shrieking at the top of my lungs, “Chris, watch out!”

My mind went completely blank as blood was all over my face the moment I heard the thunderous crack filling the desolate desert.

A few seconds later, Lyle ended up in my arms with blood gushing out of his injured chest. When he tried to say something, a mouthful of blood gushed out of his mouth.

The barely conscious man responded with a satisfied beam, snapping me out of bewilderment. “Stay with me, Lyle! You’re going to be fine! We’ll make it to the hospital soon! I’ll rush you to the hospital at once!” This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

His vital organs had sustained irrevocable injuries. There was no way he could make it out alive since we were in the middle of nowhere. Although I was certain he couldn’t get the medical attention he required, I dragged him along with me.

“We won’t make it in time!” Lyle remained stagnant in my arms and tried to caress my cheek, but he couldn’t even move his hands anymore.

In the end, I grasped his hand and placed it on my cheek, assuring him as torrents of grief streamed down my cheeks, “Stay with me! You’re going to be fine! Grandma is still anticipating our return! Just pull yourself together and stay with me!”

“I-I’m just glad you’re fine—” Lyle finished his sentence with a gentle grin just like the time he rushed to my rescue when I was on the verge of drowning at the age of eight.

He gasped out the things he had in mind with a smile the moment I regained consciousness shortly after he brought me back to the shore, “Thankfully, you’re fine!”

“Why? Why have you rushed to my rescue again?” I thought it was over for us since he was head over heels in love with Crystal. He wouldn’t even think of me if she continued keeping him in the dark. Nonetheless, he rushed to my rescue in the nick of time.

“I-I’m not sure as well—I-It turns out I still have a thing for you—”

Once he finished his affectionate statement, he was about to pass out in my arms again. I could feel his limbs slowly turning frigid.

“Lyle! Stay with me!” I repeated his name over and over again, hoping he would remain conscious until someone rushed to our rescue.

“Do you think I’m a foolish man since I have given up on you for Crystal when she’s merely trying to drive us apart?”

I wailed hysterically and assured him, “No! You’re the most exceptional man I’ve ever seen throughout my life!”

“You need to stop lying since I’m aware of the grudge you’re holding against me when I have brought upon nothing but your misery over the years. I wonder if reincarnation is truly a thing. If it is, can you

promise to marry me in the future? I’ll do everything to keep you safe and happy.”

“S-Sure! If reincarnation is a thing, I’ll definitely find you and get married to you! It’s a promise!”

“I’m pretty sure you’re lying again, but it doesn’t really matter since it feels great. Can you do me a favor and hold me in your arms for one last time?” he continued with blood gushing out of his mouth, streaming all the way to my palm.

“Lyle! Stay with me!” I couldn’t figure out the reason the lives of those around me were constantly at stake when their safety was my sole concern.

“I’ll see you when I see you again—” Lyle’s limbs drooped over his shoulders as he slowly passed out in my arms.

“Lyle!”
