Chapter 737 Die With Me
If you were to ask Aura what she regretted the most, she would definitely say what she regretted most was participating in this stupid prayer for blessings before leaving. If she hadn't stayed, Jessica wouldn't see Blaise, and a series of subsequent events wouldn't have happened.
In fact, while the prayer was still ongoing, Aura took advantage of the chaos and took Darwin to the pier in her own sand car.
Just as Gray's boat arrived ashore, she boarded the boat with Darwin.
In case Darwin ran away during the journey, Aura gave Darwin some medicine before they left.
Aura had already sensed that every time Blaise saw Fiona, his longing to be close to her grew stronger, which scared her to the core. However, she also worried about his fragile health, so she didn't dare give him very harmful medicine.
Darwin woke up as soon as they got on the boat and hid in the cabin.
He glanced around.
Aura immediately approached him, saying, "You're awake? You were sleeping so soundly earlier, I couldn't wake you up no matter what! We're already on the boat leaving the island. We'll leave as soon as Mom and Cyrus finish packing."
Darwin just looked at her.
He didn't say anything and closed his eyes.
Aura felt Darwin's disdain and impatience toward her, something that had never happened before.
Aura grew even more anxious.
"Blaise, everything will be fine once we leave the island."
Darwin still didn't say anything.
Aura dared not speak anymore.
"You rest first. I'll go outside and help."
Still no response.
Aura, full of grievances, got up and left the cabin.
She locked the cabin on her way out.
On the deck, Aura looked toward the direction of the hotel and prayed incessantly in her heart, hoping that the sea god and her father could protect her and allow her to take her beloved man to a new place and start a happy new life smoothly.
She hoped that Blaise could forget Fiona soon and accept her.
Soon enough, more luggage was brought over. The porter told Aura that there was only one more trip left before they could leave.
Little did they know that the moment the words fell, the lights on the dock suddenly turned on with a snap. Aura's heart jumped into her throat.
In a daze, she also saw some beach buggies speeding on the beach. Aura panicked. She turned around and planned to find the captain, have him sail away first, and then come back tomorrow to pick up her mom and Cyrus.
Little did she know that she looked everywhere but couldn't find the captain. Nobody answered the phone either. Aura waited for a while, but her mom and Cyrus still didn't show up, so she quickly made a phone call.
To her surprise, the person who answered the phone wasn't Cyrus, but the man who pretended to be a volunteer!
"How dare you touch my mom and brother? I'll fight you to the death!" Aura exclaimed excitedly. Mike smirked, "All right, I'm waiting for you!" Mike hung up the phone and threw it directly to Cyrus.
"Kid, I see that you're skillful. I've already discussed with Johnson to let you come with us when we return to Armie. I never expected you're actually a despicable rat!"
Cyrus turned pale, and he supported Gray speechlessly with messy hair. And at this moment, Fiona's buggy had already arrived at the dock.
"Miss!" Someone exclaimed and ran toward her as she jumped out of the car. "We've already controlled the captain!"
"Okay," Fiona responded and didn't hesitate. She ran toward the boat on the right side of the dock without stopping. Her bodyguards followed closely behind.
The dock workers were smoking and chatting on the dock. When they saw this situation, they were all startled and immediately picked up their weapons.
Aura also saw this scene when she looked up. Without hesitation, she ran toward the boat cabin on the ground. She unlocked it and reached out to pull Darwin. "Blaise, we need to jump ship. Don't be afraid, there's a small boat I've hidden nearby. It's the one I used when I took you to the Coral Sea to relax. Hold on, I'll take you there with the boat. We'll row the boat and leave!"
"Who's coming?" Darwin finally spoke.
"No one, it's unsafe on the boat. There are bad people!" Aura didn't explain and grabbed Darwin's arm without hesitation.
"Let go!" Darwin almost reflexively shook off her hand with force.
"Blaise!" Aura's expression suddenly became crazy. "Don't defy me. If I can't be with you, I would rather destroy you than give you back to that evil woman!"
Darwin's face turned pale. Did she come to find him? She didn’t love him anymore, right? She wanted to escape from him, did she? Then why did she come to find him?
"She doesn't love you, remember that yourself, don't you?" Aura changed her face again and knelt in front of Darwin. "Now that she has found you, she probably wants to kill you, prove that you're dead, and then she can safely inherit your huge estate!"
Darwin's head was throbbing with pain. Fragmented images kept flashing before his eyes, resembling memories from the past. However, he couldn't see clearly. Eventually, all the pieces came together and formed a picture of her holding flowers, tears streaming down her face.
"Blaise, come with me! You can revert to Darwin when you recover, and I will support you! But not now. She will kill you!" Aura pleaded with anticipation, looking at Darwin.
She had said everything she could, even if it was for temporary self-preservation. He would follow her and leave!
It was human nature to seek benefit and avoid harm!
But in the next moment, Aura's dreams shattered right in front of her.
"Then let her be the one to kill me." Darwin looked at Aura without hesitation, words slipping out of his mouth.
Aura froze and then spoke in a lowered voice, scolding him, "What are you saying? She doesn't love you! Don't you understand?"
"It doesn't matter." Darwin withdrew his gaze from Aura as he leaned against the cushion on the small bed. "If she wants me dead, then so be it."
"No, you can't!" Aura completely broke down.
"So you want to die?" she continued, "Fine! Then let's die together!" She grabbed hold of Darwin's arm once again.
Darwin had just been drugged and was awake, but the medication had not yet worn off. Coupled with Gray poisoning him recently, his body was already very weak. In terms of physical strength, Aura, who was strong, could easily overpower him. She forcefully grabbed Darwin's arm and dragged him toward the exit.
The sound of footsteps echoed all around them.
Aura knew they couldn't escape.
"Aura, why?" Darwin's voice carried a tone of annoyance. "Think about your mother and brother!"
"Shut up!" Aura nearly went insane. "I told you, you are mine, and I won't be separated from you. We will die together! I absolutely won't accept you being with another woman!"
As they spoke, Aura dragged Darwin to the lower deck.
The sea breeze grew stronger.
An urgent call came from above when they were just a few steps away from the mast.
"Darwin!" "
