Chapter 1190: 1187
The waves never ceased on the sea surface, crashing against the embankment time and again with the augmentation of the north wind!
At this moment, the distant-voyaging ships were nowhere to be seen on the ocean!
Even the specially reinforced salvage boats had to suspend their operations because of the violent waves!
“Boom… Bang…”
“Bang thump…”
The waves, reaching seven or eight meters high, showed no sign of stopping. Instead, they seemed to grow more and more furious.
In the sky not far from the coast, one could still vaguely see thick black smoke!
“Squeak…”
Oliver Walker, with a heart full of immense grief, stepped on the brakes and then opened the car door, looking at the crazed sea and yelling, “Girl!”
That heart-wrenching cry was even colder than the howling north wind!
At that moment, Oliver Walker knelt on the dock, shedding tears of pain!
Zooey stood behind, not daring to disturb him; perhaps the national advisor really needed to calm down!
“Girl!”
“I’m sorry!”
“I’m really sorry, I… I couldn’t take care of you!”
“I…”
Oliver Walker’s heart ached as if it had been sliced by a knife, truly beyond words, and he howled to the sky, “Why?”
“Heaven, tell me, why?”
“Girl…”
Some pains are indescribable!
They tear the heart apart!
In his memories, it was all about the girl’s grins and smiles. He would never have imagined that the farewell on the eve of the previous night would turn to be a permanent separation: “If I had known it would come to this, I would never have let you go!”
“It’s my fault, all my fault!”
“Girl, can you come back?”
“I will take good care of you!”
His voice, choked with emotion, grew softer as he spoke, until at last, it became silent; though his mouth moved, no sound came out.
In just over ten minutes, his black coat was already covered with thick white snow!
He didn’t know how to mourn the girl, nor did he know what to do; it was as though in an instant, he had lost all direction.
“Boss!”
Zooey, holding an umbrella, slowly approached Oliver Walker from behind, but under the fierce north wind, the umbrella was quickly snapped!
It was utterly useless!
“You go back first!”
Oliver Walker’s voice had become much hoarser, as if in just a short moment, he had aged a dozen years: “I want to be alone, just to have a moment of peace…”
Zooey’s lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something more, but knowing the national advisor’s character, she eventually turned around and retreated to fifty meters away, also ordering all the soldiers present to fall back.
She took out her phone, dialed a number, and said, “Sister-in-law, can you come here?”
She really didn’t want to trouble Emilia, but…
She was truly afraid that the national advisor would sink into despair and something unexpected might happen, so this was a last resort.
“Where?”
Upon hearing Zooey’s voice, Emilia understood that something serious had happened, and it was definitely related to her husband.
It didn’t matter whether she had work on hand; even if it was an urgent matter, she would have to put everything aside.
Zooey said, “Eastern Ocean City docks!”
Emilia, frantic with worry, nodded: “I’m on my way now!”
In her heart, her husband was a towering hero who had borne too much pressure over the years, never letting her know.
But now that Zooey was calling her, it indicated that her husband had truly been struck a severe blow, and at this time, she needed to be by his side.
No matter how difficult the situation, she would walk through it with him!
“Brother, say it!”
“Say you’ll marry me!”
“Say it quickly!”
“Okay, when you grow up, I will definitely marry you!”
“That’s more like it!”
“Oliver Walker, from today onwards, I renounce my ties, And sever all bonds of grace and duty from you!”
Scene after scene from the past played out like a black-and-white movie in Oliver Walker’s mind.
Meanwhile, Oliver Walker sat on the deserted dock, staring at the surging waves, feeling nothing inside his heart, from head to toe covered in snow.
