Seduced by My Childhood Sweetheart’s Brother
Chapter 422

Chapter 422

I turned Felix’s suggestion down. I told him that even if no one wanted to bring me there, I’d replace a way to go there.

I was willing to forgo my life for Colin. A mudslide was no threat.

Also, if something bad truly happened to Colin, I didn’t mind being taken by the second mudslide either. At least Colin and I died together.

Colin’s phone remained switched off. With my phone in my hands, I sat on the couch. I continued to dial his number repeatedly.

Originally, Andrew planned to go home. But seeing how distraught I was and fearing that Queenie couldn’t handle me alone, he stayed.

I did not feel sleepy at all that night. Queenie tried to console me, but I was still too afraid to close my eyes. Every time I did, I’d see a mudslide that lay waste to everything it passed through.

Andrew then told me that if I did not sleep, I would be tired tomorrow. Someone without sufficient sleep would not be allowed to join the rescue effort. He told me that if I wanted to replace Colin, I’d need to eat and sleep properly. Otherwise, I might have to trouble someone else

to look after me.

He was right. I closed my eyes and forced my mind to stop thinking about everything.

Queenie patted my shoulder from behind. Before I knew it, I fell asleep.

In my sleep, I had a terrible nightmare. Colin was standing among the rubbles, telling me to

come to him.

Seeing Colin safe and sound made me overjoyed. I began running toward him. But no matter how fast I ran, I could never shorten the distance between us. Eventually, I ran out of stamina

and slumped to the ground.

Colin looked at me with sad and disappointed eyes. His body turned translucent before it faded completely.

“Colin, come back!”

I opened my eyes. The window curtains I was so familiar with appeared before me. Sighing, I clasped my hand above my beating heart.

Thank goodness it was just a dream.

“You’re awake already?”

“Queenie, I dreamed that Colin disappeared before me. Is he dead? Did his soul just visit me in

1/2

my dream?”

Queenie comforted me gently, “Dreams are the opposite of reality. Your dream means that Colin is safe. He’s waiting somewhere for you to replace him, to bring him back.”

“Yes, I’ll replace him tomorrow. I’ll bring him back. You’re right. He must be waiting for me.”

As Queenie cooed, I fell asleep once more. When I opened my eyes again, it was already 6:00

1. am.

The flight departed at 9:00 am. I still hadn’t packed my luggage, so I got up and began packing my belongings and daily necessities.

When I left the bedroom, I saw various items laid out in an orderly manner on the table. Andrew, who was shy of 20 years old, was double–checking the list of items with his phone.

When he saw me, he offered his hand. “Give me your luggage. I’ll pack it for you. Bring several sets of clothes to me and then go wash up. Mr. White and Felix will be here soon.”

Before he finished his sentence, the doorbell rang.

I answered the door and saw Uncle Austin and Felix, who were fraught with worry.

Uncle Austin, who was senior in age, looked terrible after spending the night without any sleep. His eyes were bloodshot, and he wore a distressed expression.

“Are you

ready, Lulu? When are we leaving?” Within a night, Uncle Austin was so worried that some of his hair had turned white.

“Calm down, Mr. White. I’ve made breakfast. It’s still early now, so let’s eat something. The plane leaves at 9:00 am. We’ll gather at the school at 7:40 am. We have time.”

Queenie helped me pack my luggage. I sat down and had breakfast with Uncle Austin and Felix.

I had to say, I was impressed by Andrew.

After we received the bad news, he remained composed like a reliable adult. He was level- headed and offered efficient and useful advice. He took good care of everyone. His reassurance

calmed my nerves.
