Chapter 388
Even though the cliff didn’t seem as scary as it was when Calvin was a child, he kept recalling the scene here at that time.
Calvin lowered his eyes and looked at the cliff quietly. He seemed to be lost in memory, calm and melancholy.
Looking at Calvin like this, Rosalie suddenly felt a little sad.
Back then, they almost died together here. They were so little but they were like two intimate comrades-in-arms.
But now, there seemed to be a gap between them.
“Do you know the feeling when you’re missing someone?” Calvin’s cold voice suddenly sounded in this quiet and vast space.
Rosalie was stunned.
However, Calvin didn’t want Rosalie to answer. He said to himself, “Missing someone means that you will think about that person all the time as if that person’s image is imprinted on your brain.”
A faint smile appeared on Calvin’s face. It was a bright, yet momentary smile.
It was like a snowflake. Once the sunlight shone on it, it would disappear in an instant.
“I have been missing someone from the age of 11 to now, but I haven’t found her all these years. Have you ever experienced that kind of despair? There should be such a person in this world, but you can’t find her!” Calvin said.
Rosalie was silent. She knew that the person he was talking about was her!
Calvin continued, “When the miss becomes a kind of despair, you will keep looking for people similar to her. As long as there are some similarities between the people and the person you want, at least it can make you less desperate.”
Rosalie was stunned and looked at Calvin in surprise.
Was this the reason Calvin had been looking for those substitutes?
It was rumored that Calvin was a heartless playboy, but who could think of it? He just wanted to find substitutes to prevent him from being desperate.
Although Rosalie never approved of his behavior, she couldn’t help but sympathize with him.
Now, after knowing that she was the one Calvin wanted to find, her heart was filled with a complex feeling that she couldn’t describe.
“Rosalie, you are not the one I’m looking for, right?” Calvin turned his head and looked straight at Rosalie.
His
eyes were so quiet and deep, like a calm ocean.
Suddenly, Rosalie had a feeling that Calvin seemed to be just waiting for her last blow, which would make him completely give up.
Her lips were a little dry. Finally, Rosalie breathed out and said, Yes, I’m not the one you are looking for. Haven’t Fiona? Why did you ask such a question again?”
Calvin suddenly smiled and said, “Yeah. I’ve found her already. Why should I ask you that?”
When Calvin looked at Fiona, he had no feelings at all as if he was just looking at a stranger.
But anyway, Fiona was
s the little girl who saved him back then. No matter what, he would repay her well.

“Rosalie, don’t come here again. I don’t want to see you in this place.” Calvin’s look returned indifferent and alienated.
Calvin didn’t want Rosalie to stand on the edge of this cliff, which would only make him more upset.
He would take back all his feelings for her, and he wouldn’t be affected by her again. From now on, Rosalie would just be an unimportant person to him.
At this moment, Calvin’s eyes, voice, and expressions seemed to tell Rosalie that he did what she wanted.
Now, he completely thought she was not the girl he had been looking for.
Somehow, Rosalie still felt sad. She thought, “Maybe it’s because he was the first friend who had experienced such a difficult situation with me.”
Although Rosalie had lived in this small town for several years at that time, she always had a sense of estrangement between her and those children.
But in her dreams, she didn’t feel any estrangement between the little girl and the boy.
“Okay, I won’t come here again.” Rosalie took a step back. However, she just stepped on a branch. Suddenly, she failed to stand firmly and fell backward.
“Oh!” Rosalie exclaimed and felt that she had fallen to the cliff.

She would fall!
Her hands almost instinctively wanted to grab something! She had to grab something!
Bang!
The next moment, one hand grabbed Rosalie’s hand. Her body was already close to the cliff. If Calvin hadn’t grabbed her, she would have fallen all the way down at this moment.
Calvin was lying on the edge of the cliff and grabbed Rosalie’s wrist with one hand, shouting, “You… Give me the other hand and I’ll pull you up!”
At this moment, Calvin looked pale with a rare panic in his eyes!
Rosalie’s eyes met Calvin’s. Then she felt as if they had exchanged their roles.
She was the one who fell now, and she should be panicked.
But he was panicking!
“Hurry, give me your other hand!” Calvin urged Rosalie with difficulty, and his other hand reached out desperately to her.
Rosalie raised her other hand and reached it out to Calvin.
Their hands approached. However, at this moment, scenes suddenly began to flash through her mind, and then Rosalie felt the pain in her head again.
“Stop… It hurts…” Rosalie shouted in her heart. It was not the time for a headache at all.
Rosalie might fall off the cliff directly if she lost her balance!
But the more Rosalie thought about it, the worse her headache seemed to become.
It hurt so much that Rosalie couldn’t even give her other hand to Calvin.
“Rosalie, what’s wrong with you? What are you doing?” Calvin shouted.
But Rosalie’s head was getting more and more painful, which made her sight blur.
Rosalie raised her head hard, but she couldn’t see Calvin’s face at all. All she could hear was his roar of anxiety.
“Rosalie! Rosalie!”
Even Calvin’s roar seemed to be getting vague.
The next moment, Rosalie felt as if she was being swallowed by darkness. The scenes became clearer and clearer as if something was pouring into her mind.
