Too Late for a Last Goodbye Chapter 9
After I was buried, all three men fell apart.Peter drank himself into a stupor at home every day, clutching an old photo of the two of us and calling my name over and over."Christina, I'm so sorry. Please come back."You were always such a sweet kid. How could I ever have thought you were a bad person?"In his drunken haze, he hallucinated me sitting on the windowsill and jumping.He lunged for me like a madman."Christina, don't! Don't leave me. I'm sorry."He screamed and reached for me, but he lost his footing and plunged headfirst out the window, dying on the spot.Luke got hold of the videos of me being abused before I died.He watched them over and over, as if torturing himself.He kept repenting. "Christina, don't be afraid. I'll always be with you."And our baby too. Wait for me, both of you."He donated all his shares in the Hauser Group, along with every asset in his name.He hoped to atone this way so that my child and I could have a slightly better life in th

Luke held my long-stiffened body as tears poured from his eyes.He cried and laughed at the same time like a madman. "Christina, I'm sorry. Please come back."Jake looked at me, knowing I would never speak again, and said with regret, "Piper was lying from the moment she showed up, and we were too stupid to see through it. If we'd seen her true colors sooner, Christina would still be alive."Peter knelt in front of me, staring blankly, unable to say a word.They held a funeral for me.On the day I was buried, a fine rain drifted down from the sky.Peter's eyes were red and swollen. He could barely stand."Christina, I didn't keep my promise. I said I'd take care of you, but I lost you instead."You were such a good kid growing up. How could I have been so blind as to believe Piper?"Jake knelt before my headstone and bowed so low that his forehead struck the ground."Christina, you saved my life, and I never imagined I'd end up as one of the people who killed you."Luke gaze

"I didn't know Piper was that vicious."Peter stood and grabbed Luke by the collar. "Didn't you tell me the mountain air was good and it'd be a nice place for Christina to recover? That the worst she'd feel was a little bored?"So why did she end up like this?"For five years, you swore to me that Christina was doing well. Why did you lie to me?"Luke stood there, lost and helpless, like a puppet with its soul ripped out.Peter broke down completely, all his strength gone. He collapsed to the floor and sobbed his heart out.Jake took out Rudy's phone.When he saw the photos of me in the gallery, curled up in a corner and covered in blood, his face went even paler.He kept scrolling and found one of me lying on the ground with my eyes wide open. The despair in them pierced his heart like a needle.Then he found a voice recording. Piper's voice came through, soft and venomous as a snake."Just keep her breathing. If you go easy on her, you can forget about the rest of your paym

Peter still couldn't believe it and insisted that the doctors examine my body.He wanted to find out exactly where all the injuries on me had come from.This time, several doctors examined me together.Half an hour later, the eldest doctor was drenched in sweat."Before she died, Ms. Costner was subjected to inhumane abuse. There isn't a single patch of skin her clothes would cover that isn't injured."The three men listened in despair. None of them dared to move.The doctor sighed and hesitated. "During the examination, we also found that Ms. Costner had suffered multiple miscarriages, and there's a severe infection in her uterus..."His voice filled with disbelief. "She has severe genital tearing, as well as old fractures in her pelvis."I don't know who could have hated her so much. Even the amputation of her legs looks like it was done carelessly..."The moment the doctor finished, Peter snatched the report from him. When he saw what it said, his legs gave out, and he coll

"Christina!"I slammed into the ground, and my prosthetics broke apart on impact.My body felt weightless. My soul slipped free of it and floated in midair, waiting for the System to come find me.Luke was the first to rush over. He stared at my grotesque body and the prosthetics, disbelief in his eyes."W-What… Christina, your... Where are your legs?"He forced his stiff body to move, crouched down unsteadily, and gathered up my mangled remains."Christina, I'm talking to you! Answer me!"He roared in despair, his eyes a terrifying, bloodshot red."Stop joking around with me! All I asked was for you to apologize to Piper. Was that worth killing yourself over?"He held me tight. His face was as white as paper, and his voice shook uncontrollably.Peter and Jake came sprinting toward me too, calling my name over and over."Christina, don't scare me like this.""Christina, didn't you say you wanted to be a partner in my company? Why would you do this?"They surrounded me, scr

Just as Luke started toward me, Piper burst into tears and cried out, "Luke, my stomach hurts so much! Am I losing the baby?"Her cries sent the three men in front of me into a panic.Luke swept her up into his arms, his voice frantic. "No, you're not. Hold on, Piper. I'm taking you to the hospital right now."As he passed me, I coughed up a mouthful of blood.Jake tensed. He was about to bend down to check on me when Peter grabbed his arm.Peter glared at me in irritation. "Christina, you never change. You hurt Piper, and now you're putting on an act."Jake's face darkened. "And here I was actually worried about you. You're such a drama queen."Luke shot me a look of disgust and coldly ordered the bodyguards, "Send Christina to the hospital."Less than half an hour after Piper was taken into the exam room, the doctor hurried out."The patient's body was never well suited to pregnancy, and the fall has made her anemia much worse. She needs a blood transfusion right away to kee
