Chapter 222 Critical Mornent

Lydia shook her head as she coughed violently. Tears streamed down her face as she struggled to speak.

“Caleb, there’s something I’ve wanted to tell you for a long time. I’ve liked you for a very, very long time.”

However, Caleb didn’t hear her words clearly.

Seeing her in distress, he kept her close in his arms. He only said, “Don’t talk. The oxygen is getting scarce. Talking will make it hard for you to breathe.”

Lydia didn’t care. She seemed to sense that death was approaching them.

Even though she could barely keep her eyes open from how much they were stinging, she stayed close to Caleb.

Even in the last moments of her life, she wanted to be with him.

At this moment, everyone’s eyes were red.

What had once been a joyful situation had turned into a matter of life and death.

Just then, Xander saw a fire extinguisher on the wall outside. Without hesitation, he took off

his clothes to cover his head and rushed out.

“Xander!”

Xander’s b*dy was roasted by the flames/

But with lightning speed, he took the fire extinguisher off the wall. He opened it and sprayed it toward the source of the fire. “Gracie, come out quickly! Ev

With his words, everyone ran toward the exit.

At the critical moment, an alarm sounded outside.

“Lydia,” Caleb called out to her. Alas, Lydia had already fainted.

On the other side, Grace was coughing and couldn’t open her eyes completely. Feeling the air getting thinner, she was about to suffocate.

Suddenly, her legs gave way, and she fell.

Before losing consciousness, she seemed to fall into a warm embrace.

Grace thought she was about to die.

She had a very long dream. When she woke up, three days had passed.

In a hospital in Frenda known for having the world’s best healthcare system, almost all the Lewises were waiting in a ward.

Worried, Harold looked at Grace lying on the hospital bed and finally asked, “When will she wake up?”

Aaron stood on the side and replied, “Grandpa, the doctor said Gracie is fine. Don’t worry. I believe she’ll wake up soon.”

Yet Harold pounded his cane in anger. “How long is ‘soon‘? She’s been sleeping for three days!

Aaron could only reassure him. “Grandpa, don’t be angry. I’ll go ask the doctor again.”

As he spoke, Grace slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was a vast expanse of white, with the strong smell of disinfectant in her nose.

It took a while for her to come to her senses.

“Grandpa, Gracie is awake.” Caleb was the first to speak.

Victor rushed to Grace’s bedside, his tone gentle. “Gracie, you’re finally awake.”

The others also gathered around.

However, Grace’s brain was still foggy. When she saw Harold and her brothers, she asked, Grandpa, Aaron, Victor, Caleb. What happened to me?”

Her voice was hoarse, making her brothers feel sorry for her.

Caleb replied, “Did you forget? We were caught in a big fire at the club. In the end, you fainted.

At his words, Grace’s memories slowly returned.

As if remembering something important, she quickly asked, “Where are Emily and the others? How are they?”

Caleb comforted her. “Don’t worry. Everyone is fine. The most important thing now is your

health.”
