Chapter 38

I stood still, feeling like an idiot.
It was highly presumptuous of me to think she would be available. Of course, she wouldn’t be; she was too beautiful to be single.
I chucked a bit because I should have known. Fate always had a sense of humour when it came to me.
I did not know what to say or what she wanted, so I took a bit to gather myself.
“So I guess a rejection is imperative,” I said reluctantly, and her face dropped slightly.
She was about to speak when Sylvester called her.
One of the units had a commotion, and I did not need to guess who it was.
Ignoring Sylvester’s warning, I followed Claudia and saw Marcel shaking on the bed.
He was going into cardiac arrest.
I looked at Avery, where she lay still sleeping and was afraid for the Sidrovs.
When Marcel flatlined, Sylvester ran his finger through his hair. I noticed Leo and Theo were equally stricken by sorrow.
“Difubilators now!” Claudia called out.
It was amazing to see her maintain her calm during this time.
