Chapter 290: Chapter 287 - A Breath Away

[WARNING: suicidal thoughts & suicide attempt]

It sounded silly, but... Could it be that Ryley was sad because Clyde hadn't spoken to him ever since the medics came to evacuate them earlier?

Lucas wouldn't be so sure and confident with his assumption if it weren't for the fact that Clyde ordered him to stay with Ryley while he rode a different ambulance with Vincent.

His mouth opened, thinking he had the duty to clear some things that might have grieved Ryley. "Sir—"

"Go get them for me quickly, please..." Ryley interrupted, pulling a weak smile on his face. "I don't want hospital food. They always tasted too bitter in my tongue." 

"Understood, Sir."

The blond only asked the man to do it to make him leave the room. Seeing Lucas here only added to the pain in his heart.
