My Mistake 213
“I was useless, just kept holding you back.”
Roderick bravely lifted his hand and wiped away the tears on her face with his thumb.
Just then, the elevator made a “ding” sound again.
Quinn’s guy showed up.
With the reinforcements, Quinn quickly got away.
He walked confidently towards the elevator, his tone as cold as ice.
“All the people in the suite were taken care of.”
“That Brady, stripped him naked and threw him into the sea to feed the fish, Mateo tied him back to the Shillingford’s manor, wait for me to go back and clean up slowly.”
After giving the order, he walked slowly to Andrea and knelt down in front of her, looking her in the eye.
His warm hand gently held her face, his tone especially gentle.
“Scared? Is there anything wrong?”
Andrea then noticed the wound on his forearm, guilt instantly engulfed her.
“You got hurt! I’m sorry, it’s my fault.”
Quinn rubbed her thumb on her lip, looking at her with pity in his
eyes.

“As long as you’re safe, I don’t care what…”
“Hiss-”
Roderick suddenly groaned.
She was gritting her teeth and enduring the pain, even to the point of seeing black in front of her eyes. But now, she feels like all her strength has been drained away, and she collapses in Andrea’s arms.
Andrea immediately turned around and caught him.
“Roderick, just hang in there.”
Quinn gave him a cold look, but he just weakly smiled and nuzzled Andrea’s neck.
“Ouch…”
“We went to the hospital right away!”
Andrea struggled to support Roderick, but his heavy body made her stagger.
Quinn reached out for help, but he was pushed away with the last of his strength.
During the standoff between the three of them, Roderick suddenly blacked out.
The last thing I saw was Andrea’s terrified face.
“Andie…”
He heard Andrea wailing her heart out.
Don’t cry.

Roderick suddenly collapsed without warning.
Andrea was pushed and stumbled into the wall of the elevator, hitting the back of her head hard on the metal, making a dull sound.
She didn’t feel any pain at all.
“Roderick! Wake up! Don’t scare me!”
She hoarsely cried out, tears mixed with blood, dripping down her chin.
Quinn frowned and reached out with his knobby fingers to feel Roderick’s carotid artery on the side of his neck.
After feeling a faint pulse, his tense back finally relaxed a bit.
“No worries, just passed out from losing too much blood.”
He had a sense of luck that he didn’t even realize.
He definitely hated Roderick, wishing he would just disappear completely so no one would bother him and Andie again.
But Roderick couldn’t die here!
Quinn gave Andrea a deep look.
Otherwise, Andie would live with guilt for the rest of her life, she would never forget him.
Quinn briskly pulled off the blood–stained tie and pressed it against the bleeding wound.
After doing that, he grabbed Roderick’s waist and took all his weight on himself.
“Don’t worry Andie, the top deck helicopter is on standby, we’ll head

to the nearest hospital right away.”
“Ok…let’s go now!”
Andrea’s voice was trembling.
Top deck.
The sea breeze carried a strong smell of blood, and the roar of the helicopter’s propeller was deafening.
With every step Andrea took, it felt like walking on cotton.
Just as they were about to board the helicopter, a figure stumbled out from around the corner.
She was a young girl, around twenty.
Her seaweed–like black hair was messy on her shoulders, her skirt covered in dust, with a few shocking scars faintly visible.
