But Scarlett Yates believes in the soul, and the body that dies is merely a shell.
Matthew Saxon just found her words amusing, but he thought for a moment before saying, "What are you afraid of? If we are to die, we'll die together."
"But I don't want to die." Scarlett blinked, her eyes slightly red as she looked at him. "I haven't lived enough yet, and recently the hospital was nominating for the Excellent Nurse award. I was nominated, and maybe I could even win it."
If she died now, she would die with regrets.
She was truly afraid of death.
The mere mention of the word death made her shudder.
Matthew Saxon wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know what to say.
He'd said everything he should, but she insisted they would die, leaving him helpless.
He couldn't possibly tell her that all of this was part of a plan he had set up in advance and that someone would soon come to rescue them.
This foolish woman, she had no idea, even if he were to die, she wouldn't.
