Chapter 721 The Feud (26) The Man Passed Away
An explosion shook the villa, shattering all its windows.
On the other side, Oscar had already arranged everything, even his own final affairs, and was preparing to call Melvin. But just as he was about to make the call, he heard a deafening noise that seemed to rip through the sky. He was on the opposite side of the sea, staring in horror as the villa crumbled before him.
"Fuck!" Beside him, Theodore was equally shocked by the sudden bomb. He realized it had come from the villa on the island and his face turned pale. Just moments before, he had been thinking that this might be the last time he saw Oscar.
Oscar had asked him to stay, to assist Chan. He had also asked him to take care of Hannah and his child if she was still alive and to bury her with him if she had died so that they could be buried together as a family of three. Then he had asked him to take good care of Justine if Manuel died.
Theodore was unwilling to listen to his requests, however, he had never been able to refuse Oscar's orders since he was a kid. Even though he was an adult already, he couldn't refuse him, so he agreed with him, with totally red eyes.
But at that very moment, an explosion happened in the villa. He could even see the fear on Oscar's face.
Oscar had planned for many things, but he couldn't have foreseen this. Even if Melvin had threatened him, Oscar knew that Melvin wouldn't have taken any action in advance. Melvin had wanted to kill him and he would have done that even if it would cost his own life, but Oscar knew that Melvin wouldn't have just accepted a fate like that.
"Oscar!" Theodore watched as Oscar suddenly jumped onto a speedboat, completely ignoring everything and driving straight towards the island. There was no time to think too much. With his command, several ships from the Wells' army headed towards the island crazily.
The closer they got, the more they could see the smoke coming from the villa. What on earth happened to cause such a big explosion? Were they still in there? Theodore didn't dare to think any more. He could imagine that if Oscar saw Hannah's body, Oscar wouldn't be able to stand it. Not even he could stand it, how could Oscar?
When he sent Hannah to Melvin, Oscar didn't give her any choice. Theodore's eyes turned red. He gritted his teeth and ordered others to drive faster. However, no matter how fast they drove, they couldn't match Oscar. Theodore could only watch Oscar alone on the speedboat in front of them, driving faster and faster crazily towards the island.
Finally, Oscar went ashore and he rushed into the villa in no time. The guards stationed around were so confused because of the sudden explosion. They didn't react to the arrival of Oscar. Without a leader, they didn't know what to do now. Meanwhile, some parts of the villa were already on fire.
Oscar quickly rushed inside, only to replace that many injured people were lying on the ground, while there were also some bodies. The villa was completely destroyed.
Oscar suddenly stopped. He was glued to the spot as he saw Cian lying there, at the entrance to the villa's front door. Oscar thought he had left here safely. It was supposed to be only Hannah, Manuel, and Jimmy left inside. Why was Cian still there? He just stood there, staring at him for a long time, as if petrified.
"Oscar," The man laying on the ground, with a completely bruised and battered body, suddenly called out to him. His voice was so weak. If it weren't for the suffocating silence at this moment, nobody would be able to hear it.
Oscar's throat trembled. A tear fell on Cian's face. Cian felt it, but he couldn't move at all, or he would have wiped it away for his brother. He hadn't seen Oscar cry for so many years. He thought he wouldn't cry anymore. It was good to know that his brother would cry for him.
"I did my best."
Oscar's tears fell one by one on Cian's face, and his body remained stiff.
"I don't know if Hannah... Urgh..." A mouthful of blood flowed from his mouth. His blood kept oozing from all his eyes, nose, and ears.
"Don't be sad, my brother, I always wanted to protect and stand for you since I was a child," Cian said and wanted to laugh, but he couldn't anymore. He couldn't even see his brother clearly anymore. He wanted to, but he couldn't see how his brother burst into tears for him.
"I don't have such a great attachment to this world. I'm tired..." Cian said in a low voice. His voice was low as if he had already disconnected from this world.
"Oscar, don't let Hannah down." Cian used his last bit of strength and finished his words, "She deserves..."
Then he smiled and left. With Oscar around him when he was dying, Cian felt satisfied. In this world, his only attachment was his brother. He felt that being able to save his brother's life was the greatest happiness in his life. He had never felt that being alive was so important, while he was happy with being able to die with value.
All Oscar could do was watch Cian closed his eyes slowly. Cian would never open his eyes again.
Theodore caught up a little later. He rushed into the villa frantically, and when he rushed in, he saw Oscar standing at the door, motionless.
He was confused for a moment, then he saw Cian lying on the ground. Theodore was so shocked that he almost fainted directly. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief. He had been sure that Cian left the villa. But now, how could he die here? Besides, it seemed that Cian was the one who detonated the explosives.
The person laying beside Cian was Melvin, who was tightly held by him. Melvin was dead too.
Theodore had no idea what had happened.
Did Cian go back to the island after he left?
Did he want to save Hannah, or to save Oscar's life with his?
Overwhelmed by considerable distress, Theodore couldn't stand seeing Cian, the boy he watched growing up, the man who always smiled at them, laying on the floor like this and would never move again. He didn't even dare to look at Oscar at this moment. He didn't dare to think how sad Oscar was now. Just like that, his family died in front of him again.
Theodore's throat trembled. He suppressed his emotions and said, "I'll go and see if there are any other survivors!"
