Chapter 248 - Ch. 248 I'm Sorry From Roxy

It was like she was at the bottom of the ocean without being able to swim up when he heard the terrible news. Britney felt unable to breathe, and the world around her seemed to stop rotating.

"Britney? Britney!" her husband repeatedly called her to wake her from her reverie. "Our daughter will be fine. We'd better go first and find out what happened."

Britney's vision became even more blurry when she heard her husband's desperate voice. Hades III did look cold and didn't seem to care about the news of the plane crash, but Britney felt the tone of concern, and her husband's hands trembled as he held hers.

Roxy will be fine. Prayed Britney inside her heart. The child was endowed with great luck and loved by all. There was no way that child would leave this world so soon.

Roxy was a naughty and unruly child. She often made all adults had headaches seeing her misbehavior, but everyone still loves the child and hopes that she will become a successor.

"Conn, I leave everything here to you." Britney could hear her husband talking to his right-hand man, but her vision was now blank.

Britney still couldn't accept the fact that she would lose her eldest daughter. She hadn't even met her daughter after a year of not seeing each other!

'Please, be safe wherever you are.' Britney continued to pray in her heart and wish her daughter well.

"Leave it to me," replied Conn in a firm tone. "I hope she's okay. She has the god of fortune by her side."

"I don't believe in gods, but I hope she's okay." Hades III glanced at his wife, who was so pale she couldn't speak. "Let's go."

The two immediately departed for a private runway and boarded their plane. Britney did not stop feeling restless during the flight, and her fingers did not stop clutching her shirt tightly.

"Britney, calm down. Trust me. Our daughter will be fine."

"No. As long as I haven't seen her face, I won't be able to calm down." Then she remembered her youngest daughter. "Kaylee, she's okay, right? She didn't get on the plane, so she should be fine, right?"

"Yes. She's still at Pierre's."

Britney nodded her head in relief, but not enough to relieve her nervousness. She had yet to meet Roxy and was constantly praying for the safety of her eldest daughter in her heart.

Never once would she have thought that she mentioned the wrong name in her prayer. She should have mentioned Kaylee's name in her prayers because the one on the plane was Kaylee and not Roxy.

They arrived at the Spanish airport around four in the morning and headed straight for Pierre's house. Pierre and his wife could not sleep all night while waiting for the arrival of his brother while coaxing his niece to eat.

He knew he wouldn't be able to persuade Roxy to eat, and he hoped that the arrival of his sister-in-law would be enough to bring the child out of her misery.

"Pierre, what exactly happened? How about Kaylee? Where is she?"

"Kaylee? Actually…" Pierre forgot to tell his brother that it was Kaylee on the plane, and now he didn't know how to answer his brother.

And Britney immediately walked in without asking the host's permission to look for her youngest daughter. Apart from wanting to make sure her youngest daughter was okay, she also wanted to ask why Kaylee had let Roxy go home alone.

If Kaylee wanted to stay in Spain longer, she should have kept Roxy staying with her so that Roxy's life wasn't taken away by the plane crash.

Britney had to open the bedroom doors one by one to find her daughter, and she finally found her after opening the fourth door. Her husband and brother-in-law caught up with her because of their wider and faster pace.

"Kaylee, are you okay?" Hades III immediately approached his youngest daughter with great sadness.

He knew very well that Kaylee loved her sister very much and vice versa. If one of them got hurt or fell ill, the others would accompany her sister in her room and comfort her.

Now hearing that Roxy had gone in the plane crash, she didn't surprise why her youngest daughter had become sluggish and lacked the will to live.

However, there was something odd about his wife's behavior. Britney didn't budge from her spot and looked at their daughter probingly.

The girl's fingernails… were long, and there were also red tick marks on some of her fingers. Besides… this girl's hair was unnaturally pitch black as if she had just dyed her hair nonchalantly.

"Roxy? You are Roxy, right?" Britney could barely hide her joy at the fact that her eldest daughter was still alive.

Her relentless prayers during the journey here have come true!

"Roxy? What do you mean? Isn't she Kaylee?" Hades III was confused by his wife's calling toward their youngest daughter.

Without answering his confusion, Britney dashed towards the lifeless-like girl who was sitting on the floor leaning against the wall.

Britney brushed away her daughter's hair and cupped Roxy's cheeks with shaking hands.

Her daughter was still alive… which means… both of her daughters were fine!

"You are Roxy. If you are here, where's your sister? Where's Kaylee? Why does everyone here look sad?"

Britney had new hopes and couldn't wait for her daughter's answer when Roxy raised her gaze. Britney was expecting good news, but the girl… was crying instead?

"I… I'm sorry," her daughter's voice was incredibly soft like a whisper, but Britney could still hear it. "I'm sorry," repeated her daughter, and without realizing it, her eyes became wet.

"What do you mean you're sorry? Where is she? Isn't this all just your usual prank?"

Roxy often tricked people around her and acted like she was gone. It made her almost have a heart attack at first, but now she was used to her prank.

However… she didn't have the mood to get her usual prank, and it was not funny.

"Darling, please tell me. Where is she? You said you were going home alone, and now you're here. Doesn't that mean Kaylee is still here too?" Britney became more and more agitated when she heard her daughter's cries grow louder.

Why… Why is her daughter crying more and more? No matter how mischief her daughter or how masterful her acting talent is, Roxy never sheds a tear in the middle of her prank!
