Chapter 1252: You Have to Step Over Her Dead Body First



They were coming!

Giana had never felt this panicked before. She had to run, keep running to grasp even the slightest chance of survival. But the devils behind her were relentless. She couldn’t stop, not for a moment, or Esteban would be dragged back to that hellish place.

The Gilliam family had already killed her husband and nearly her son. Now, they still wouldn’t let them go. Esteban noticed the assassins chasing them and understood why his mother was fleeing with him. But their physical limitations soon betrayed them, and the pursuers closed in.

The train was about to start, and their only chance was to reach the door and jump off quickly. The conductor, unaware of the danger, had already pressed the button to close the doors. Seeing this, they quickened their pace.

Esteban, exhausted, tripped over a suitcase and fell to the ground with a thud. “Stop! Don’t run!” “Quick, don’t let that kid escape!” “Yes!”

The villains were closing in, and they were only a few meters from safety. But Esteban’s fall had twisted his ankle, and he couldn’t stand. Giana frantically helped her son up. If this continued, they would both die.

Esteban knew this too. Tearfully, he looked at his mother and said, “They’re after me. Mom, you should go!” Only by staying behind could he give his mother a chance to survive.

No mother with a conscience would abandon her child, and Giana was no exception. She shook her head, discarded their luggage, and carried Esteban on her back.

“Mom, why do the bad guys want to catch us? I don’t even know them.” Giana couldn’t answer him. She had asked the same question once. Her husband’s reply was: “We have no choice.”

They were so close to escaping. Just as Giana jumped off the train with Esteban, a bullet whizzed through the air and hit her chest. She heard the dull thud as it pierced her flesh.

For her son’s sake, Giana gritted her teeth and kept moving, leaving a trail of blood behind her. But she collapsed just a step away from the door. Knowing this was their final goodbye, she set Esteban down and gave him one last look filled with a mother’s deepest love.

Her lips moved, and in Esteban’s disbelieving gaze, she spoke. Since falling ill thirty years ago, Giana hadn’t uttered a word. Her voice was unexpectedly beautiful, not crisp but with a husky tone that etched itself into Esteban’s memory.

“Esteban, you must live on with my hopes.” “Mom! No… don’t!”

In a desperate moment, Giana used all her strength to push Esteban off the train. Another bullet hit her back, this time piercing her head and exiting through her forehead. Even as blood splattered her face, Giana’s smile remained as radiant as ever.

Her last words unfinished, she collapsed. “Mom!” Fortunately, the train had just started moving slowly. Esteban landed on the platform with his back first. Ignoring his pain, he scrambled up and chased after the train.

“Mom! Mom… come down.” The door was about to close, and the assassins rushed towards it. But they found their feet heavy as if burdened by weights, slowing them down.

Looking down, they saw Giana’s last bit of consciousness holding onto their legs tightly. “Get off!” One of them kicked her viciously.

Giana’s frail body seemed like it could be blown away by the wind any other day, but today she was unyielding. Despite their kicks and punches, she held on firmly, preventing them from taking another step forward.

Her weakening consciousness focused on Esteban running outside the door. Silently urging him in her heart: “Run, child! Run…”

The door gap narrowed until it closed completely, and Giana’s face disappeared from Esteban’s sight. He knelt on the ground crying bitterly, tears pouring like a summer storm.

“Mom, I want my mom… she’s still on the train.” Suddenly, the train window shattered, glass shards falling as several shadows jumped off the train.

Seeing this, Esteban wiped his tears and ran into the crowd. He couldn’t let his mother’s hopes down; he had to survive to seek revenge!Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

Meanwhile, the train lost control and crashed into a nearby mountain wall, causing an explosion. A massive mushroom cloud rose into the sky as screams echoed from the burning carriages. The station went into emergency mode.

The explosion caused three deaths and over a hundred injuries. Investigations revealed it was due to conflicts involving the Gilliam family.

Among the dead was a woman with severe injuries-two gunshot wounds and multiple fractures. Passengers on the train witnessed her brutal death at the hands of men in black.

“It’s so tragic; she died protecting her child.” “A mother’s love is the greatest; she sacrificed herself selflessly.” “What happened to her child? Poor kid will be an orphan now.”

No one knew where the boy went; everyone silently prayed for his escape from the killers.

At Zheemond Zoo, Pearl said goodbye to Giana and Esteban before arriving with Sasha. Unaware of their tragedy, she received a call from Ruth at the entrance.

Seeing Ruth’s name on the screen made Pearl pause for a second before answering. Since their argument at the hospital, Pearl hadn’t contacted Ruth for days. They had fallen into an unexplained cold war.

Pearl had thought about breaking the ice herself; Ruth was soft-hearted and might forgive her. But recent events and her own illness had kept Pearl from doing so.
