Chapter 491

Her voice was shaky, and she could not even speak properly.

Realizing something was off, Rayna instantly rushed off to look for a doctor, yelling, “Doctor! Doctor!”

That nurse noticed that something was amiss too, and she quietly sneaked off.

Soon, a few doctors swarmed into the room and began administering emergency treatment for Oliver.

In the meantime, Rayna and Kristie waited outside.

Rayna was trembling, and she could not recompose herself.

He’s Jessie’s only family. What am I going to tell Jessie if anything happens to him?

A few minutes later, the doctor stopped trying to resuscitate Oliver.

With her keen hearing, Rayna heard the doctor asking the nurse to note down the time of death, and her knees went weak. She collapsed against Kristie and could only blankly watch as the doctor walked toward her.

The doctor said something to Rayna, but none of his words entered her mind. He had a look of pity on his face, and after shaking his head, he left.

Shortly after, the only ones left in the room were Rayna, Kristie, and the lifeless Oliver.

Rayna was in a daze for a long time. As she held onto Kristie’s arm tightly, she squeezed out, “What did the doctor just say?”

“Rayna…”

“Is Mr. Marsh resting?” Rayna asked. “He’ll be fine by tomorrow, right?”

Kristie quietly said, “The doctor said sorry and that they’ve tried their best.”

At that, Rayna pursed her lips and grabbed Kristie’s arm tightly.

When she blinked, the tears in her eyes rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably.

“How am I going to tell Jessie about this?” she finally choked out before bawling. “She has helped me so much, but I couldn’t even keep her only family safe… I’m so useless…”

She had not been able to keep her brother safe—she had let him die in a foreign land.

How long had it only been since then? Now, she failed to take care of her good friend’s family.
