Can't Live Together, But Die Together
Phillips didn't die immediately after being shot. Because of the strengthening agent, his body was stronger than the average person, and his life was also tougher than the average person. But even so, he was an arrow at the end of its flight. Furthermore, after the wound was bandaged, the villa was filled with thick smoke. If he didn't run out of oxygen first, he would suffocate to death from the thick smoke.
He dragged his body against the wall. When he thought of the moment when he pushed Eve out, he felt so wronged that he almost burst into tears.
Just as Eve said, he was obviously a very possessive person. Even if he couldn't have it, he would destroy it. But when it came to Eve, he couldn't destroy her, so he could only let her go. In front of her, he did indeed put on a generous and magnanimous front.
But only he knew how much he couldn't bear to let her go.
When he thought of Eve marrying another man and having children with him in the future, he went crazy with jealousy. In front of outsiders, he was so aloof and calm. Now that he was alone, Phillips finally couldn't help but cry. He didn't have the demeanor of a swift and decisive leader, a genius elite of the J Organisation. He was like a child who cried because his beloved toy was snatched away.
Because his lungs were injured, every time he cried, there would be streaks of blood. His body was in so much pain that he almost gave up thinking.
"Eve, Eve, Eve, Eve …"
His low sobs echoed in the empty house. He was the only one left. How miserable his death was.
He was once the pride of the heavens, with outstanding intelligence and unparalleled bravery. But in the end, he died in such a way. Who could understand how unwilling he was?
The most important thing was that he had given his sweetheart to someone else.
"Eve, Eve …"
He repeated Eve's name over and over again. It was as if he wanted to imprint it in the depths of his soul, or as if he was calling for something.
"Since you wanted to push me out, why are you calling my name now?"
An extremely calm voice sounded in the house. Phillips jerked his head up and saw Eve standing behind him, looking at him with tears streaming down her face.
Phillips thought that his eyes were playing tricks on him, but when he blinked hard, the person in front of him didn't disappear. Only then did he confirm that it was a real person and not an illusion.
He thought that he would be ecstatic, but in fact, he was furious. "Why are you here? Get out … Cough cough cough … Cough cough …"
Because he had used too much strength, it affected his lungs. A fishy sweetness quickly surged up his throat, and blood spurted out.
Eve's expression changed drastically, and she hurried over to support him. She wanted to give him a hand, but Phillips violently shoved her away. "Piss off! Get out! Quickly! "
The house could collapse at any time. It was too dangerous to continue staying here.
However, after being pushed away, Eve only sat up, patted the dust off her body, and persevered as she moved closer to Phillips. Phillips was furious. "Are you crazy? You want to die with me, right? "
"Yes, that's my plan."
Eve nodded calmly. She sat beside Phillips. No matter how hard he tried to push her away, she held on tightly to him, not giving him a chance to push her away.
Phillips saw how stubborn Eve was. His face darkened. He muttered, "Stupid woman, do you really want to die?"
Eve leaned on his shoulder. "If you don't exist in this world, what's the point of me living?"
This sentence was so emotional that it made Phillips stop all his movements. He seemed to be discouraged, but also seemed to have no strength to break free. He lowered his head and murmured, "Do you think dying for love is a great thing? When you think it through, you'll realize that people can continue to live no matter who is missing. You'll soon regret it. How stupid it is to die with someone like me. "
"Yes, maybe I'll regret it later, but what's done is done. There's no need to think so much. I just want to follow my heart."
Phillips: "… Idiot. You should've just followed Adam. You've always had a crush on him. Now that he's finally responding to you, you don't want the happiness at your fingertips … Cough cough …"
Eve helped Phillips breathe and continued to lean on him. "Don't you know that women are the most fickle creatures? I've fallen in love with someone else. "
Phillips opened his mouth and wanted to continue.
However, the blood that kept flowing out from his throat made him unable to speak.
He had been on the verge of collapsing, but because he had seen Eve, he had been able to retain a single breath of life. Now that he was on the verge of dying, he covered his mouth tightly and coughed in a muffled voice.
Eve knew that Phillips was about to die, and the villa could collapse at any time. She could only say everything she wanted to say as soon as possible.
"You are truly arrogant to the extreme. Whether it's throwing me to 5th Lord, or now throwing me to Adam, you didn't even discuss it with me. It's all your wishful thinking of treating me well. However, have you ever thought that I've never looked forward to the kind of future that you've given me?"
Phillips: "…"
"Fifth Lord was very good to me. He always treated me as a substitute for his wife and gave me all his love for his wife. Adam was also good to me. Just like you said, as long as he could give me half of the kindness he had for Lilith, I would be happy for the rest of my life. However, neither of them belonged to me completely. In Fifth Lord's heart, no woman could compare to his dead wife. In Adam's heart, no woman could compare to his most important Lilith. I'm not their only one. You only love me. For me, you can even betray your most important master. I think that other than you, there probably won't be a second person in this world who can completely love me and love me wholeheartedly. For you, who only belongs to me, for you, who is loved by me, even if I have to die, so what?"
Eve's words hadn't come out of nowhere, nor had they been spoken on impulse. Instead, they had been uttered after careful consideration.
After Phillips heard this, his eyes reddened.
He didn't expect to hear these words before he died. It seemed that he could finally die without regrets.
Eve took his hand and interlocked her fingers with his. She continued, "Phillips, I've already thrown caution to the wind. Since we can't live together, then let's die together. You've been willful twice. This time, let me be willful, okay?"
Phillips turned to look at her and smiled. In the firelight, he was like a dazzling seraph in an oil painting.
This person could have been as beautiful as an angel, but he took the wrong path.
He held Eve's hand tightly. In the end, he compromised under her bombardment. He smiled and said, "Do you really plan to die with me? If you die with me, you won't be able to go to heaven. "
"As long as I'm with you, what does it matter if I go to hell?" Eve raised her eyebrows.
"Haha … Why do your words of love always make me so happy?" Phillips held the back of Eve's head with his other hand. He pressed her against him and kissed her.
Eve also took the initiative to kiss him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and stuck close to him.
The two of them snuggled up to each other in the ruins surrounded by fire. They hugged each other tightly. No one could separate them again.
In the end, the load-bearing wall broke, and the huge villa collapsed.
Huge waves of flames swept out in all directions, and everything within a hundred meters was set ablaze.
Everything was destroyed by the fire.
