422 Chapter 422: Dead Game (1/2)
Large drops of tear fell on Fannie's forehead, eyes and lips.
Nate closed his eyes and cried, hugging Fannie's body in his arm.
”I don't allow you to die now! Open your eyes!”
”Can you hear me? I went to beg the mother for the blood to save your life. Couldn't you wait for me for a while longer? Why!”
”Fannie, open your eyes now. As long as you can open your eyes now, I promise I won't force you to get married, and I won't force you to go on blind dates either...” Nate wiped his nose on the sheet, then raised his head to look at Fannie.
Tears kept falling down from his eyes, but he still raised a smile. ”Didn't you ask me whether I like you? Let me tell you now. I love you.”
”Fannie, you're scaring me now. Please stop playing the 'I'm dead' game.” Nate said to himself and didn't notice that everyone was standing around him in the operating room now.
”It's said that a person still can hear other people's talking when he or she just passed away because his or her soul is unwilling to leave right away.” Kylie held Ethan's arm, saying to Nate. ”Nate, if you have anything that you want to tell Fannie, tell her now.”
Nate turned to look at her and said with doubt, ”Can I tell her to wake up?”
Dinah rolled her eyes. ”She lost all her blood. I don't think it's possible.”
Nate seemed extremely sad and moved back to stare at Fannie. ”I just have the feeling that she's still alive.”
Kylie exchanged a glance with Dinah, then said, ”Nate, I understand you're reluctant to accept it, but Fannie already left us.”
”You weren't here when she closed her eyes, and she must be very sad. I think you better seize this chance now to tell her whatever you want her to know,” Dinah said.
Hearing that, Nate licked his lips and hesitated.
He found it very difficult to say it aloud.
Stephen interrupted at this time and said to Mrs. Bass, ”Fannie is still unmarried. Mrs. Bass, where should we place her grave?”
Although Fannie was adopted by the Bass family, she couldn't be buried in their graveyard. If her grave was placed somewhere else, she would be alone there.
Mrs. Bass thought for a while, then said, ”Fannie is my adopted daughter after all, and I can't see her lying on the ground alone. I think we can bury her in another family's graveyard...”
”No!” Nate opposed at once. ”I can't see Fannie lying in the ground with a stranger. She's a member of our family!”
”So? What do you want to do?” Kylie asked.
”I...” Nate licked his lips. ”No matter what, we can't bury Fannie alone, nor in another family's graveyard.”
”Tell us your idea then.” Ethan pulled Kylie to his arms and stared straight at Nate.
Nate wasn't afraid of anyone, but he didn't dare to meet Ethan's eyes.
