Chapter 433 There were a lot of people in the corridor. I began looking from the entrance, and when I reached the deepest end, I saw Colin spacing out with his head lowered. He was in front of closed doors.

Colin was covered in mud. There were even straws in his hair. His tall frhunched forward, making him look defeated and despondent like something heavy was crushing his back.

I didn't know what was on his mind. I stood there for five minutes and he never moved. He didn't even notice that I was there.

"Colin," I called out several feet away from him.

He quickly looked around. When he saw me, his body briefly tensed up. Something appeared in his eyes, but I didn't catch it. Perhaps he was too worried about the victim, so he failed to notice my appearance earlier.

"What are you doing here?" Colin walked towardand flashed a tired smile. He wanted to hug me, but when he saw his dirty hands, he decided against it. He pointed at the bench next to the wall and said, "Let's sit there." Colin sat down. He and I were separated by an empty seat. "Sorry, I'm just too dirty." For the first tin forever, there was a distance between us. I wasn't overthinking it. It wasn't something that I made up upon seeing him with another woman. It was a physical, measurable distance.

We were inches away from each other, but it felt greater than that.

I wanted to ask him what happened. Where had the lights in his eyes gone? I traveled all the way here for him because I was worried that something bad might've happened to him.

Perhaps he wasn't moved by it, and he could reproachfor being reckless. But why was he reacting so indifferently? When I chere, I told myself that Colin would be safe and that I was here to take him home. I thought that when he saw me, he'd be over the moon. He'd hugand callbabe.

But what happened was completely different. He wasn't over the moon, and he didn't hug me. Apart from the moment he saw me, there was only exhaustion and indifference.

Women were often very perceptive when it cto love and feelings.

I suppressed the disappointment in me, telling myself that Colin must have been too tired and I should be more understanding. He had always taken care of me. Now that he needed help, it was my turn to look after him. I should stop overthinking things. I shouldn't let trivial matters affect me.

1/2 +15 BONUS Yes, my priority was to look after him, not to overthink. He was a kind man. He'd help anyone in need. The woman was his colleague. He couldn't just leave her high and dry. If he did, he wouldn't be the Colin I had cto adore.

I approached him and plopped the bag I was carrying on the chair. Then, I took out a big bag of wet wipes and knelt before him. I cleaned his hand, his face, and his hair.

He stayed silent and letclean him. Once in a while, I'd lift my head to look at him. His eyes were unfathomable. Other than exhaustion, I saw the concern on his face too.

Who was he concerned about? No, I did not want the answer to that.

"Colin, are you alright? Are you hurt? The moment we chere, we asked to see you. But the head of the operation wouldn't let us. He said that we'd interfere with the doctors' work." Uncle Austin found us and scurried toward us. He leaned to check on Colin meticulously, not wanting to miss any spots.

Colin held my hands and askedto sit next to him. Then, he patted the ΟΠΙ empty seat on the other side and smiled wryly. yly. "Sit here, Dad. I'm fine. Felix, can you tell Mom that I'm safe? I don't want her to be worried.”

"We did after we dug the tunnel. Your mom was crying. When she heard about the mudslide, she began crying, and she couldn't sleep at all. Had we not told her sternly to stay home, she would've tagged along. "Fortunately, she didn't come. If she had seen what we saw last night, she would've fainted I'm so glad you're safe. How could your mom live without you?" Uncle Austin said.
