However, Vivian didn’t use another hand to slap him. She stopped slapping him. Then, she started to tremble uncontrollably. Her lips were trembling, and she could not speak properly as she spat out hoarsely, “She was so young. You b*stard!”“I don’t want her to have my child!” He stared at her and said distinctly, “In this whole wide world, Vee, I just want you to have my child!” “Have your child? Do you want me to have your child?” Suddenly, she laughed softly. She could not even stop laughi
Vivian's right hand had swelled up. She felt numbness and tingling conjoining in her wrist, and soon she could barely feel her palm. All of a sudden, she fell silent. She turned her head to look outside the window as panic swiftly took root inside her. She couldn’t imagine her future if things were going to develop according to Edward’s plan. To her, she would rather die than give birth to his child. It was already very late at night. Wade drove the car at an unspectacular but steady pace. The
Vivian did not reply instantly. She fell silent for a moment before asking him, “Have you never had any nightmares before, Sean Jackson? Have you never dreamt about being haunted by those who lost their lives to you? I wonder how you are able to fall asleep everyday after committing so many atrocities.” Although Edward was taken aback by her blunt question at first, he soon came around. Plastering a faint grin across his face, he answered, “Even ghosts are afraid of the wicked. Like us humans,
Wade raised his head and observed him again. There were a lot of things happening on his face. Half of his face had swelled up. An angry red welt had formed on his skin in the shape of a palm, and the tip of his lips was bruised. All of these were screaming about what had happened to him. The last thing Wade wanted to do was to lie to Edward. In the end, he could only bite the bullet and nod. Edward raised his hand and touched his face gingerly. A smile shadowed on his lips as he ordered, “I’
Just as she was wondering what had happened, the door on the opposite side of the Konstantine’s house swung open. A middle-aged woman poked her head out and offered Vivian a kind smile. She said, “Are you looking for the Konstantins? I’m afraid you’re going to be disappointed. Madam Konstantin was picked up by the ambulance this morning.” Vivian turned over to face the woman. However, before she could ask anything, the woman shook her head and sighed. “Her son passed away in a car crash last y
They found Madam Konstantin in the third hospital. The old lady had suffered a stroke. She had had a stroke in the past, and this time, it hit her even worse when she heard about the death of her granddaughter. Even though the doctor managed to rescue her from the clutches of death, her condition was not promising. When Vivian arrived, the old lady was still in a coma. A person who seemed to be her relative sat on a chair beside her bed. When the relative saw Vivian, she asked, “Is there anyth
Vivian was exceedingly calm. In a short period of time, she had come up with countless methods on how to get rid of the pea-sized embryo inside of her. However, just as she was contemplating which method she should use, a voice popped up in her mind. There was a better way to use the little pea inside of her. She intended to use it as her bargaining chip to get what she wanted from Edward, and then she would get rid of it in front of him. The thought was getting stronger and stronger to the
With a calm face, she raised her head and asked, “So, am I still not allowed to return to work?” “Just consider these two days as a break from work. We’ll discuss your work later on,” he replied, holding her gaze. “I’ve consulted the doctor. He said you might be having some cold symptoms during the early stage of your pregnancy, so you mustn’t simply take any medicine.“ Truth be told, Edward did not expect such obedience from her. He looked at her with a strange expression for a while befor
