Deadly Doting Marriage Novel - Chapter 94
Chapter 94: He Hugged the Charred Corpse
At this moment, a pair of charred arms appeared in front of him. John was shocked and was unable to move.
“No, it’s impossible…”
John’s body was trembling. He quickly rushed over and pushed the piece of wood on the arm.
When he saw the charred woman, whose face was beyond recognition, John’s face suddenly turned ashen.
The body in front of him had been burned to such a degree that it was impossible to clearly its face. However, it had a platinum necklace around its neck. The watch on its wrist had already been burned to a pitch-black, but it was still ticking.
John could not take it, and he fell onto his knees. His hands trembled as he tried to touch the necklace. This was a gift that he had personally bought for her.
‘No, it couldn’t be. It wasn’t Kathleen!’
His palms were drenched in sweat, and a fear that he had never felt before overwhelmed him.
Mr. Lambert, who had made the entire Hillford bow down to the Lambert Group, trembled uncontrollably. His heart felt as if it was spasming and twitching.
He slowly squatted down, gently shaking the stiff corpse in front of him. “Kathleen? Is that you?”
With his mouth half-open, he gently patted Kathleen’s charred face and said with a trembling voice, “Kathleen, wake up. It’s me!”
The corpse did not feel a thing. It lay there quietly, without a single breath.
John roared, “No…”
The cries of despair reverberated through the entire beach. It was like the final howl of an injured wild beast, mournful and sad.
Dawn was like a sharp sword, splitting the thick night and welcoming the warm morning sun.
John was still holding the corpse in his arms. He drove to the hospital like a madman.
On the way, he ran countless traffic lights before he reached the hospital.
After parking the car, John carried the corpse into the hospital’s emergency room.
“Doctor, Doctor!” he shouted. His voice was heart-wrenching and soon attracted the attention of the nurse on duty.
The nurse walked over to John and asked, “What’s wrong? What’s wrong?”
“Quick, save her!” John tugged at the nurse’s clothes and said in a trembling voice, “You must save her. There must be a way to save her, right?”
The nurse followed John’s line of sight and soon saw the charred body in his arms.
It had been burned beyond recognition. The entire body was black, and its face could not be seen clearly.
The nurse was shocked and hurriedly said, “Quick, send her to the emergency room!”
John placed the body on the bed, and a few nurses immediately pushed it into the emergency room.
Following that, a doctor entered the operating theater and locked the door to the operating theater.
When Karl received the news, he immediately informed Carlos and Erwin.
They immediately rushed to Crafield Hospital.
They walked to the entrance of the operating theater and saw that John’s entire body was covered in ash. He looked like a tramp as he sat there dejectedly. They immediately walked in front of him. “What happened? Why is there a fire all of a sudden? Is Kathleen alright?”
“What happened to Kathleen? What did you do to her?” Carlos shook John with all his might and said angrily, “What happened to Kathleen? What did you do to her?”
John’s face was pale, and his entire body could not stop trembling. He looked at Carlos and Erwin and was about to speak.
The lights in the operating theater went out, and the doctor walked out of the operating theater.
When John saw the doctor, he immediately pushed Carlos away and walked in front of the doctor. “Doctor, how is she? Is she okay? Has she come back to life?”
The doctor took off his mask and glanced at John. He said in a deep voice, “The patient has already been charred. There is no hope for her! My condolences!”
John’s knuckles turned white. He held the doctor’s arm and trembled. “No, that’s impossible. She’s not dead. There must be hope. Please save her!”
The doctor sighed. “We had tried everything, but when you sent her here, there were no signs of life. I’m sorry!”
“None of us have the ability to bring someone back from the dead. Mr. Lambert, I’m sorry for your loss!”
“No, I don’t believe it!” John rushed into the operation room and held her charred hand. “She won’t leave me. She said that she would stay with me. How can she die?” John shook Kathleen’s body and shouted, “Kathleen, wake up!”
“Are you kidding me? I’ve already let you go. Why do you still want to die?”
“Kathleen, please wake up!”
“As long as you’re awake, I won’t interfere with any of your decisions. I’ll set you free.”
“Please wake up. I want you to wake up!”
Carlos walked to the bed, and he saw the body covered by a white cloth with a face of disbelief.
“Kathleen, is she really Kathleen?” Just a few days ago, they went to try on her wedding dress. Her smile was still so bright. How could she turn into a corpse in a blink of an eye?
“How? How did this happen?” Carlos clenched his fists, his face extremely pale. “Everything was fine, so why did she die?”
“John, what did you do to Kathleen? Why did you kill her?”
“I didn’t kill Kathleen!” John’s face was as pale as a sheet of paper. He staggered back a step and muttered, “I’ve already promised to let her leave. I’ll let her leave today, but I never thought that this fire would happen!”
“No, the cabin is by the sea. It’s impossible to start a fire easily. Someone must have set it on fire. ”
John recalled Kathleen’s words, and his entire body turned ice cold to the extreme.
“You Snuffed Out My Last Ray of Light.”
Was It Kathleen? Did she kill herself?
Does she hate herself that much? So much so that she did not hesitate to kill herself to make him suffer?
Carlos glared at John angrily and tugged at John’s clothes. “This is all your fault. I’ve said before that you can’t give Kathleen happiness.”
“I wanted to tell you that I like Kathleen and will treat her well, but you’ve ruined everything!”
John pushed Carlos away and said furiously, “Shut up! You don’t deserve her. If it weren’t for you getting engaged to her, I wouldn’t have treated her like that and forced her into a corner…”
“It’s all because of you, Carlos. I’ll kill you. I won’t let you go!”
Erwin quickly stopped them, seeing that the two of them were about to start fighting. “What are you doing? Kathleen just passed away, and you’re already fighting in front of her?”
“So what if we’re fighting? Can Kathleen come back to life?”
“She won’t. A person can’t come back from the dead!”
Carlos clenched his fists, his face extremely pale. “You’re right. A dead person can’t be resurrected, and Kathleen will never be able to wake up again!”
He looked at Kathleen for a long while, and as if unable to accept this fact, he ran out in a frenzy.
“Carlos, Carlos!” Erwin was afraid that something would happen to him, so he hurriedly chased after him..
