The person on the other end was silent for a long time.

Alaricka’s whole body turned cold.

“Alaricka, are you looking for this?”

The men behind Alaricka suddenly stopped moving.

Alaricka looked up. Clarissa, who should have been in the hospital, stood in front of her with a smile, waving a phone.

“Alaricka, you called Kieran, but he didn’t have time for you."

“Kieran is watching fireworks with Rose.”

Clarissa’s phone was playing a video.

In the video, it was the backs of Kieran and Roschelle. Kieran’s arm was around Roschelle’s thin shoulders, and fireworks were beautiful in the night sky.

At the same time, Alaricka saw that the sky above her head was almost covered with fireworks.

At the moment when the fireworks fell, Alaricka heard the voice from Clarissa’s phone.

“Kier, thank you, I’m very happy.”

Alaricka had never heard Kieran’s voice so gentle. “I hope you’ll always be happy.”

“Kier, can I kiss you?”

Chapter 24

The other end of the video suddenly became noisy, but Alaricka could clearly hear Kieran say, “Yes.”

Alaricka gasped, feeling as if her heart was being torn apart.

“So, Kieran knows it?”

Clarissa raised her eyebrows. “Otherwise, why would you call him and no one answered?

“Kieran wants you to stop dreaming.”

Alaricka closed her eyes, her lips curving into a bitter and mocking smile.

She actually had some illusions about Kieran.

It was really disgusting.

Clarissa took a few steps back, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “You guys, take good care of her. This is Mr. Argent’s order. You’ll get a reward if you do a good job.”

The men let out lewd laughter, approaching Alaricka, grabbing her legs.

Suddenly, a boy in a school uniform like Alaricka’s rushed over with a stun gun. He was panting roughly, swinging the stun gun in his hand wildly.

“Get lost! Don’t touch her!”

The sound of the current in the stun gun made those men retreat.

Alaricka immediately got up, and the boy grabbed her wrist, pulling her to run.

She didn’t know how long they ran. Both of them were panting heavily.

The boy stopped, turned around, and carefully looked at the road behind them.

After a moment, he threw away the stun gun in his hand and said, “It’s safe now. I have to say, the school security’s stun gun is really useful.”

Alaricka hugged herself tightly, her voice barely audible. “Thank you.”

The boy was average-looking, not tall, but he smiled brightly. “It’s okay. But you have to be more careful next time. Don’t take that road. It’s always been taken by some thugs.”

Alaricka wanted to nod, but her head was dizzy.

The boy held her, saying nervously, “Are you okay?”

Alaricka murmured weakly, “Can you take me to a hotel?”

The boy’s voice immediately became hesitant. “A…hotel? Why do you want to go to a hotel?”

Alaricka shook her head forcefully. “I’m tired. Please take me there.”

She knew she’d better go to the hospital, but she was afraid of meeting those people again.

And she knew this place was close to an economy hotel, less than 200 meters away.

The boy made up his mind. “Okay. I’ll take you there, but you can’t touch me.”

Alaricka could only nod.

In the room, the boy stood there helplessly.

Alaricka went to the bathroom to deal with her wounds, and the boy quickly followed, holding her arm to support her.

His fingers just touched Alaricka’s wound, and Alaricka moaned in pain. “Can you be gentle?”

The boy’s ears turned even redder. His hands moved away nervously, and he accidentally touched her other wounds.
