Chapter 21 Absalom’s Heart Was Broken, Harmonia, I Can Explain

“Harmonia, that was too reckless! Do you even realize what could have happened if he had pressed the detonator?”

Her somersault had left Harmonia drained as she had not fully recovered in the first place. She could barely muster any strength now.

She leaned against a nearby railing without giving Absalom another look.

“No matter how risky it was, I had to save myself.”

She would never let go of any opportunity to save herself. Dying here was not on her agenda, and she definitely did not want to die because of him and Luna.

Harmonia exerted herself and pushed his hands away.

“Harmonia, I saved her because…”

“You have the right to save her.”

Harmonia had carried a massive burden in her heart for years. Even after the divorce, that weight had been hard to remove.

However, the moment Absalom made that decision, she was finally freed from that weight. Although her heart suffered during the process, her heart would no longer be held hostage.

She walked toward the door.

Upon seeing Luna, she pressed her against the warehouse door.

“Luna, you should watch your back from now on. After all the horrible things that you’ve done, don’t be surprised if someone comes to settle scores with you!”

She tilted her head and displayed an icy and intimidating demeanor.

Luna was so terrified that her face turned pale. She leaned against the door with her legs trembling.

Harmonia sneered and walked away

Not far away, a McLaren and several police cars pulled up.

Hector jumped out of his car and hurried toward Harmonia.

“Harmonia!”

“I’m feeling a bit weak.” She was exhausted. Her legs felt like lead weights. She had truly reached her limits.

“Everything’s okay now,” Hector reassured her as he wrapped his arms around her.

“I’ll carry you.”

With that, Hector hooked his arms beneath her legs and lifted her in a gentle embrace.

Absalom witnessed the scene. It was a painful sight for his eyes. He clenched his fists. His veins were bulging. He felt like his heart had been brutally torn open, with blood gushing out from the wound.

“Harmonia, why won’t you give me a chance to explain?”

The night breeze carried a slight chill, but Absalom felt an icy coldness within him.

The police took Leo’s body away and cleaned up the scene.

Having gone through the recent ordeal and being intimidated by Harmonia, Luna’s face lost all color. She clung to Absalom in fear and helplessness.

“Ab, are you okay? I was so scared I was really terrified. Thank you for choosing to save me in that critical moment.”

Absalom wore an indifferent expression as he pried open her arms and glanced at her. “I only saved you because I knew you’d make things worse. I just wanted you out of there, nothing more.”

Luna, upon hearing Absalom’s words, stiffened. “No, Ab, I know you love me. You chose me over her just now!”

Absalom’s face grew even colder. A dark and ominous expression took hold.

“It’s time for you to pay the price.”

With those words, he walked away, leaving Luna with nothing but his retreating figure.

Luna still had not grasped the meaning of his words until the police approached her and placed another pair of handcuffs on her wrists.

“Miss Woods, you are suspected of being involved in this kidnapping case. Please come with us.”

Luna’s eyes lost focus as she shook her head repeatedly. “No… No!”

Her desperate cries echoed through the vast warehouse and harmonized with the cawing of crows in the distant hills.

Meanwhile, on the hillside across from the warehouse, Dimas handed over the sniper rifle to the police. He dusted himself off and accepted the handkerchief Dominic offered. He wiped his hands clean and briskly walked away.

Hector took Harmonia to the hospital, where the doctors promptly examined her.

They confirmed that she had been exposed to a sedative, but it posed no harm to her body. Her current state of unconsciousness was due to exhaustion. She just needed some good rest. Hector let out a sigh of relief.

He stayed by Harmonia’s side and fixed his gaze on her.

He frowned as he was overwhelmed with guilt. “Harmonia, I should’ve come sooner.”

In the late hours of the night, Absalom received word that Harmonia had been taken to the hospital. He immediately headed to the hospital.
