Chapter 1439


    Barlow let out a light chuckle.


    “Rosalynn, why are you touching me? Don’t take advantage of me. Karina might get jealous.”


    Rosalynn wasn’t in the mood for banter. She found the acupuncture point on his neck and carefully inserted the needle.


    However, simply pricking that one acupuncture point wouldn''t suffice. She needed to insert needles into other acupuncture points


    as well.


    The problem was that they were currently trapped amidst a heap of stones, and she couldn''t stretch her arms.


    “Rosalynn, don’t waste your energy. It might be better if | don’t make it out of here. Maybe this would make Kennedi feel


    relieved.”


    Barlow’s voice grew progressively weaker. “Promise me that you won''t cause any trouble for her once you get out of here. | owe


    her, and I have finally repaid that debt.”


    His voice gradually faded, and she sensed his life slipping away.


    Rosalynn’s eyes welled up with tears.


    “Don''t talk like that, Barlow. You will be okay. Help will arrive soon.”


    Barlow answered betweenbored huffs of breath, “I haven''t finished my mission yet. Keep my identity a secret. My superior will


    send someone to take over my work.”


    Rosalynn sobbed, “Okay. | swear | won’t say anything.”

    “Don''t tell Brian. | want to see him mad with jealousy. He acted hastily and hit me without understanding the situation, and that


    annoying mother of his almost hurt Karina. | have to get even somehow.”


    Karina’s tears fell without stopping. 2


    “Okay. I''ll do everything you say. But you have to hold on, Barlow.”


    Barlow hacked a few harsh coughs, his eyes turning slightly hazy. “Even | want that. Karina...! want to embrace her just once


    more. But | really can’t anymore...”


    His hands slid down slowly.


    In this dark and deste ce, even the air turned mournful.


    Rosalynn desperately patted the unconscious man and screamed, “No! Barlow!


    Wake up! You’re a man, aren’t you? You can’t give up here. Karina is waiting for you. You have to go and see her!”


    No other sound came from the darkness but the echoes of her own cries.
