However, reality was completely beyond his control.

Kyle Kinston looked at the boundless deep sea in front of him. Where exactly was she, and how could he possibly find her? He instinctively reached out his hand, wanting to grasp something, but in the end, he couldn’t catch anything.

"Cough cough... cough cough..." Kyle suddenly started coughing violently. Caleb hurriedly stepped forward, "President, the wind is strong here, let’s go inside first."

But Kyle continued coughing, bending over from the sheer force of it.

With Kyle coughing like this, the people around naturally became anxious.

And when Kyle finally stopped coughing, Caleb, who was closest to him, was shocked, because he saw blood in Kyle’s palm.

The president is coughing up blood?!

Caleb quickly said, "Elder Kinston, you’d better go to the hospital quickly. You haven’t slept for three days and nights, and now... if this continues, your body will collapse."

The others, seeing Caleb’s alarmed expression, also gathered around, naturally seeing the blood in Kyle’s hand, each becoming deeply worried.

After all, Kyle’s status wasn’t just that of a president; he practically held the economic lifeline of the country in his hands. If something were to happen to him, it would likely lead to immediate turmoil.

However, at this moment, Kyle seemed as if he hadn’t heard anything, just staring blankly at the crimson in his palm. Is this... her punishment? Punishing him for his arrogance.

He thought everything was under his control, but she used this method to show him that some things he couldn’t control at all!

His chest felt stuffy, like something was blocking it, unbearably uncomfortable, and his throat felt like it was burning, so dry.

In front of him was just the vast expanse of the ocean.

"Kyle, goodbye." He vaguely heard her words echo in his ears.

On the morning he went to the border, she had tied his tie and smiled at him, saying those words...

She was bidding farewell to him!

Goodbye, goodbye... never to meet again. Is that what she meant?

And was that the last meeting between them?

Suddenly, Kyle felt a heat in his throat, and another mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, trickling down his lips and dripping onto the ship’s deck, so bright and glaring...

"What? You said Mabel fell into the sea and her life or death is unknown?" Alice Conley heard this news from Daniel Harris and could hardly believe it.

"Mabel asked me for a fake ID, and today I saw the information of that fake ID on the shipwreck list. I don’t know if she boarded the ship using that ID or gave it to someone else. Can you contact her now?" Daniel Harris asked urgently. When he saw the list, his first thought was that something happened to Mabel. He immediately called Mabel’s phone, but it was turned off.

He then inquired over in W City. Fortunately, he had some connections and confirmed the list was accurate, and the people on it were indeed among those missing from the shipwreck. He also learned that Kyle Kinston was in W City and had been involved in the search and rescue efforts during the crucial 72 hours.
