Then Comes Spring When Winter Ends - Chapter 124 Death

Lee Han Ping felt caged, his every moves were monitored and he became paranoid. This kind of life is not what he wished for, he thought about the few months he spent with Lily, how everything was dream like, a fairy tale he never knew existed and it seemed he made a deal with the devil to enjoy a short blissed happiness and now he is in hell. Al Paci was giving him no peace nor room to breathe. Every moment he is reminded how he is nothing but a pawn and soon to be used and once deemed useless, will be discarded like a rag.

He hated Lee Han Ting to death, he has been hearing that the brother of his has made good recovery, why can’t he just die. At least his death would bring him some form of satisfaction, making his current misery worth while. Since he is going to die, why not die with the old man, maybe bring along that annoying woman and her unborn child. He called Al Paci over to discuss his plans.

“Hey, young man, I know you have no plans to keep me alive and once I am done, I will end up dead, I want to hasten the process, but I want to bring my brother and his daughter in law and her unborn child with me, let my nephew suffer for eternity like I did. Hear my plans out. Your boss plan would take too long of a time to execute. What say you?” he proposed.

Al Paci thought about the old man words and it seems like a good idea to him. “Just what do you plan to do?” he asked.

“Do you have an explosive device undetectable yet powerful enough?…..”

They ended up discussing and strategising for hours until they were satisfied with the plan. Each plans has its own back up plan just in case things went wrong. Lee Han Ping was gleeful and after days of oppression he finally had a reason to smile. He don’t mind dying, there is nothing to live for by the way, if he is going to die, why not drag a few more? At least he won’t be too lonely. He laughed at the prospect of it. Al Paci could only shake his head at the old man antics, such a mad man, willing to die just for revenge. Al Paci never understood human emotions, since young he was trained that emotions are useless, if he showed any emotion, he was starved for days, hence, to survive, he threw away his emotions long time ago because having emotions only caused hunger and punishment.

His wife and kid left him, his wife called him a psycho when he started to train his 4 year old son the same way, his wife was frightened off by his cruel method. Finally, she ran away and he felt like a heavy burden lifted off his shoulder and decided never to be in a relationship again. He was drunk and accidentally got married, being taught to be responsible for his own actions since young he decided to uphold the vow, by providing for her. She knew she married a mafia henchman and understood he was devoid of emotions but did not expect him to try and train their son to be another version of him.

Heather was updated of the plan and was looking forward to it. She sent over her best bomb maker and he will arrive Beijing the next day. She was hoping to execute this plan as soon as possible so that she could concentrate on her internal issues. She was such in a good mood that she gave out bonuses to everyone. She gave instructions to people in Singapore to make a move after confirming the news that Crystal was still alive. Not only that, Tom is with her. She is going to grant their wish, they will get to be together forever in death. She smiled sweetly, all these plans are making her happy. Plus she had found a perfect candidate to substitute Crystal. Soon, she will make her move after she makes the world a better place. She let out a joyful laugh.

Tom and Crystal knew they had to make a move tonight, the people that were trailing them were getting restless these past few days. They hugged each other tightly and comforted one another. “Just in case we, I, I don’t make it tonight, I just want you to know, I am glad I met you and I never regret it, if I were to be rebirth or reborn for a second chance in life I would gladly take the same path as long as I get to be with you.” Tom said.

“Hush, we are going to make it. I love you Tom, I am sorry you had to be part of the mess I am. Thank you for loving me unconditionally.” Crystal said as she placed a kiss on his lips.

“You are my beautiful mess. I love you Vivian.” Tom replied. Since thenday Derek, let them go, he had been calling her Vivian, her old name before Heather gave her a new name for a new life.

“Come let’s go. We must purposely let them trail us.” Crystal said as she took Tom’s hand and dragged him along.

They entered their car and made as if they were going out for a stroll. They drove around a few times and sped up when they purposely made it known to their pursuers that they had already figured out their existence. It then became a scene of highway chase followed by Singaporean traffic police car as they were driving way beyond the allowed speed limit. As the car was nearing the edge of the cliff Tom and Crystal prayed silently in their hard that everything will go as planned. As the car was diving down the cliff, the men that were following behind made a sharp turn to avoid the cliff and barely made it with one tyre hanging off the edge of the cliff. The Singaporean police was not much way behind called for more backup when they heard a loud explosive sound followed by the colour of burning flames. The men that narrowly escaped death quickly reported the event to their boss who in turn reported to Heather. Heather demanded that she wants to see the two charred bodies before she believes that those two are truly dead.
