Chapter 292 He Could Not Die
He was injured, taking me out seemed impossible. I was afraid, if I died here, he would also be stuck
here with me.
Seeming to know what I was thinking, Daniel’s face turned ashen, his voice restrained and low, “Don’t
talk nonsense, we will find someone soon. Don’t sleep, as long as we get out, we will find someone.”
I nodded, but it felt as if my strength was being drained bit by bit. I didn’t even know what kind of snake
it was, how it could be so powerful. I hadn’t been bitten for long, but I was already feeling weak all over.
To encounter a snake in winter, I really was unlucky.
Seeing that I was about to close my eyes, Daniel raised his hand and slapped my face, his voice
almost domineering, “Tabatha, don’t sleep!”
“My eyelids were too heavy, and I looked at his somewhat blurry figure, saying, ‘I’m sorry for dragging
you into this mess with me, and for causing Sebastian to be lost somewhere. Mr. Monroe, if I die, when Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
you see Sebastian, please apologize to him for me.
“Shut up!” He suddenly raised his voice, trembling a bit, “Whatever you want to say, whatever you want
to do, go do it yourself, Tabatha. I won’t help you with anything. Don’t sleep, I’ll carry you out.”
He hoisted me onto his back, moving forward step by step. I lay on his shoulder, thinking about his
injured leg, and with a hoarse voice, I kept saying sorry to him, one apology after another.
He just kept responding to my inability to sleep, over and over again. In the end, he even started to
threaten me, saying that if I fell asleep, he would leave me here, to be forever lost in this thicket.

“Let the snakes, insects, rats, and ants in this mountain and soil gnaw at me,” his words scared me
quite a bit. I’ve been afraid of these things since I was a child. The thought of being gnawed by these
creatures after death made me shudder uncontrollably.
But I was still very tired, and very weary. Leaning on Daniel’s back, I forced myself to stay conscious
and said, “Daniel, could you help me take care of my mother?”
He walked laboriously, responding to me in a hoarse voice, “No, Tabatha, I won’t help you with
anything. You’d better live well on your own. And, I warn you, you can’t die now. If you die, my return
will be meaningless.”
I didn’t know what he meant by saying that. I somewhat suspected that I was hallucinating due to the
snake venom attacking my heart, and I kept muttering apologies.
The mind also became increasingly heavy and confused.
Later on, I lost consciousness, with only the domineering and gloomy voice of Daniel reaching my ears.
He seemed very angry, and on the verge of panic.
Actually, I wasn’t afraid of death at all, it’s just that I had a lot of regrets. I didn’t stay with my mother
and live well, didn’t manage the Conner Group left by my father properly, didn’t say goodbye to Walter
properly, didn’t tell him that a long time ago, I really wanted to have a child with him, to live a peaceful
life as a family, and there were so many more regrets…

I woke up in the hospital. In the few seconds when I opened my eyes, I was momentarily disoriented,
until a deep, magnetic voice came from beside me. “Awake!”
It was Walter.
I slightly turned my head and saw the man sitting next to me. His delicate and cold face looked
somewhat haggard. I didn’t know how long he hadn’t taken care of himself, he had grown quite a bit of
beard, looking a bit unkempt. However, it didn’t affect his attractiveness, he was still very good-looking,
just a bit rough.
Looking at him, I was somewhat dazed, it took me a long time to find my voice, “Why are you here?
Where’s Daniel?” Am I not dead? Was I carried out by Daniel? That was the only thing I could think of.
Walter’s face turned completely dark. His originally bright black eyes dimmed as he looked at me. The
restrained worry on his face seemed to disappear in an instant. After a long time, he coldly spat out
four words, “He won’t die.”
He then got up and left the ward without saying a word.
I looked at him, full of confusion, where was he going?
A few seconds later, I understood, because the doctors outside the ward came in. After they had
examined me, a leading doctor asked, “Ms. Conner, is there anywhere else you feel uncomfortable?”
