《Mr. Sutton's Lovesick Girl》 Chapter 1 Doggy Style Chapter 1 Doggy Style A night. She was turned over by a man with his tall and strong body pressing her from behind and his slender hand stroking over her body. Lucia Barrett woke up from her dream and subconsciously caught his hand. His weight and temperature made her body tense. Alcohol again. Bearing Esther Barrett¡¯s words in her mind, she twisted her body and struggled to break free irritably. "Justin Sutton!" She turned her head and glowered at him, "Every time you bury my face into the pillow. Does it bother you to see that it is me instead of my sister having sex with you?" With her chest heaving up and down, she had thought she cared nothing, but Esther¡¯s words broke her down, which was like the melted iron destroyed her arm and got herself scalded. Justin never had sex with her when he was sober, and even when they had sex, he never took a glimpse at her face for he always fucked her from behind. As he was to leave, Lucia straightened her body up and hooked her arms around his neck, pulling him close to her, "You can¡¯t go. See who I am! I am your legitimate wife!" "It is me having sex with you, I am Esther¡¯s sister! Justin! Two years ago, it was not me forced you to marry me, but your grandpa! He forced you to marry me because he felt the pressure!" Hearing that, Justin got much sober. With a grim face, he clutched Lucia¡¯s jaw with great force, "If not for your tricks, Esther would have been married with me!" "I did not y any tricks! Believe it or not!" "You did not?" Justin snorted mirthlessly, "You made Esther drunk that night, or how could I have slept with you? And we even got caught by the reporters! Because of that, my grandpa forced me to marry you by threatening me, or he wouldmit suicide if I refused, for the sake of the family fame!" Everyone in J City was aware that Lucia had crush on Justin for 11 years. However, Justin took fancy on Esther, which was also well known to them. Therefore, if it was said that Lucia yed tricks, they would deeply believe it. Lucia felt bitter in heart but sill raised a proud smile, "So what? You married me in the end!" "I don¡¯t love you!" "I don¡¯t wish that! My love for you has been vanished in this damn marriage!" Lucia roared hysterically, for fear that she would expose her cowardliness if her voice was too small, for cowardliness would make her look menial in her marriage with this man, who had no feeling for her. She said that, because at least she could have some dignity left, though it was ridiculous and pitiful. Inexplicably, Justin burst out a me of angry. He had been sober uppletely and for the first time, he torn apart her cloths in the state of being sober! "Don¡¯t you want me to see your face? I can do that!" Lucia felt it unbearable. Justin had never been so violent as if she was an enemy to him! "Justin! Do you want to kill me?" "Yes! I have been wishing to kill you since two years ago!" Two years ago, on the eve of his wedding with Esther, Lucia, taking his arms, blurted out shamelessly to the reporters who broke into the door, "We did sleep togetherst night, and it was my first night." Back then, he wished he could kill her! Lucia, under his body, went worn after being tortured by this man. As before, he got out of bed. He was to bathe and then go to sleep in another room. Lucia sat up, thinking of Esther¡¯s words and this horrible marriage, "Let¡¯s get divorced." She pulled over the quilt to cover her naked body and then took a sign, "It is all my fault, even if I did not y a tricks, I admit it, since you believe in that. Let¡¯s get divorced." She never raised to get divorced, for once she put it forward, her pure love would break into piece, but now she found that he would never love her. He was like a stone with no heart. She held back her tears, afraid that it would sting her heart, which had already broken! Justin turned to her and, looking at her smiling eyes, he found that he hated her for she was dauntless Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. when she said she wanted to have divorce. Giving a sneer, he replied "Get divorced? How dare you?" "You can marry another woman, isn¡¯t it good?" She gave a bright smile. "Whatever." He mmed the door close as he walked out of the room. Yeah, he deserved to be arrogant, for he was from the rich and powerful Sutton family. Chapter 2 Plan on Divorce Chapter 2 n on Divorce At ten in the morning next day, No sooner Justin returned to his office after the meeting than his secretary handed over a file bag, "Boss, this is from your wife." Justin opened it, only to see "Divorce Agreement". He mmed it to the desk. Feeling like a fire was burst out of his lung, he unbuttoned his shirt. Lucia had pissed him off repeatedly sincest night till now! Divorce? How dare she raised it? -- Lucia got back home, intending to tell her father about her divorce. She found no servants on the first floor, so she went straight to the study. But outside the study, she had heard that nasty conversation. "Dad, will I have all the property of the family?" Her sister Esther said. "Yeah, for Lucia and Justin have been married for two years, her mother¡¯s will is in force, and hence the shares belonged to her mother now are yours. And all my property goes to you too." "Great! If were not for her will, I would have not set Justin up and given him to Lucia." "Well, she loves Lucia, so surely she wanted Lucia to marry the man Lucia likes, and Lucia expects nothing apart from Justin." "Dad, I have all the shares, but I want Justin too. I want them to get divorced." "Esther, be patient, till everything is settled. And you know Justin has no fancy on Lucia, so, don¡¯t worry." "No, I am worried. Justin drew line with me since he had been married. He has been a loyal husband, I have to hurry to get him back, or I will have no more chance." Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Standing outside, Lucia felt dizzy, her body trembling, and she almost got fainted. Her father, for transferring her mother¡¯s shares to Esther, set up her scandal and marriage. Having the shares in hand, he had the intention to get her divorced. And he left all his property to her sister! What was she in this family? For two years of her marriage, she did not even have a family! She turned around, breathless, feeling pain in her chest, and barely walked downstairs with her hands on the handrails. She would not let them seed. No! As soon as she got into a cab, Justin¡¯s call came, "I am waiting for you to get divorce." "I have changed my mind." "Lucia! You fooled me around!" With head dizzy and ears ringing, she could not even hear her own voice though she talked aloud. Therefore, she shouted, "You wish, Justin! I will never agree to let you two together! Even if I die, I will not divorce you! It doesn¡¯t matter you don¡¯t love me! I don¡¯t care! I do not love you anymore! I just want the annoying Esther to fail to be with the man she likes! I want her to suffer! I want her to beg me kneeling onto the ground, to ask me to give you to her! But! I will never say yes! I want her to feel painful for she can never be with you!" After that, she hang up. She went crazy, out of anger. Her body was shaking and her heart was about to break. Justin was shocked by that, as Lucia said she did not love him anymore, he gave a grim look. He had known that Lucia did not have good terms with Esther, which wasmon in rich families, for they had different mothers. He got irritable when he realized that that Lucia used him to go against Esther. It had been 11 years, so was she just trying to get back to her sister by marrying him, so she even confessed her love in various ways, like expressing it on a newspaper? Being furious, Justin clenched tightly his fist, revealing his white knuckles. Chapter 3 Lucia, You are Mad! Chapter 3 Lucia, You are Mad! Neon light shed in the night at the door of W Restaurant. Stepping on her high heels, Lucia walked straight over to the table where Justin and Esther were dining. Justin was m to see her, and even gave her a cold nce. Lucia noticed the triumphant smile on Esther¡¯s face. For two years, Justin had never asked her out for a meal. She used to enduring it, but she would never do it again. She picked up Justin¡¯s ss and clinked with Esther¡¯s, and then took a sip, "Happy birthday!" Smiling, Esther raised her ss elegantly, "Thanks, sis." Lucia raised her eyebrows, "My man uses our money to treat you to dinner, so yeah, you should thank me." Esther turned pale on her face and looked towards Justin to seek for help, but he was cutting his steak, like nothing was happening around. "Sis, I don¡¯t agree with you. When you married Justin, you did not have a cent, and the property of Justin before your marriage does not belong to you, ording tow." "I know, for father has left all the money to you." Esther was nervous, "Sis!" "The wine is expensive, but I don¡¯t mind wasting it." With that, she sshed the wine to Esther¡¯s face, giving a defiant smile, "You called me here to stimte me, didn¡¯t you? Now your wish has been achieved, happy?" Screaming, Esther stood up and got tissue to wipe the wine off from her face, "Lucia, you are mad!" Lucia put down her ss, but Justin stood up at this time and grabbed her hand, his voice cold, "Apologize to Esther." "No!" "Say sorry!" Pitifully, Esther took Justin¡¯s hand, "Never mind, Justin, I am ok, my sister may not in a good mood today." Lucia used him to stimte Esther in every single words, how could he possibly let Lucia go, "Apologize!" Lucia refused stubbornly, "Whether she drank the wine or I sshed it on her, she got it. I am not doing C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org anything wrong, there is no need to apologize." Justin dragged Lucia outside the restaurant, and stuffed her into his car, ignoring the onlookers. As the car door was mmed close, the car drove away. "Justin, get me out!" "Lucia, you are really fucking asshole!" During the two years of their marriage, Justin never had quarrel with Lucia, because he never bothered. At the thought of his position in Lucia¡¯s heart, he could not help but being angry. Lucia had been upset for a whole day, and she needed to vent out her anger too, "You are right, because you are not a good husband!" With the corner of his mouth raised, the car was covered with dangerous aura. He drove to the suburbs and pulled over in an meda. It was not until then Lucia got scared, "Justin, what do you want?" She grabbed the seat belt tightly as Justin pressed her over, "What do I want? I want to be a good husband, so that you stop being an asshole!" The car shook violently in the meda with a woman¡¯s screaming out, but she was not heard. "Justin, I love you, but you turn your back to me and love that snake-hearted woman, are you blind or not?" Justin did not believe her and held in his mind that she was just trying to get back at Esther. Chapter 4 Wish Her Death Chapter 4 Wish Her Death The real snake-hearted woman was Lucia! He thought, and he punished her harder and harder! "It''s not your turn to say who I love!" Lucia gritted her teeth as she endured the man''s mad hitting. Justin''s phone rang, and it was Lucia¡¯s father Davis Barrett was calling. Justin picked up the phone and the middle-aged man on the other end of the line shouted with a sobbing voice, "Justin! Justin! Esther killed herself, she wants to see you before she dies!" Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. It was the first time Justin had stopped without getting physical satisfaction. As the car made its way back to the city, Lucia yed with her fingers and said, "If Esther doesn''t die, but the two of us died in the crash, we might be able to be a ghost couple without being disturbed." Justin saw the corner of Lucia''s mouth curled up, thinking if this woman''s purpose had finally been achieved? Her sister was dying. Did she get her revenge? "Shut up!" "Worried? Scared? Are you afraid you''ll never see her again in your life?" "Lucia, you''re so cold-blooded! She¡¯s your sister." "My mother only had me as a daughter, howe I have a sister?" Lucia knew very well that Esther would not really kill herself. She was so scheming that she even sent the men she loved to the bed of other woman. What else dare she not do? And she now wanted Justin back to her. Her suicide was just a move to force Justin to divorce. Lucia didn''t go to the hospital, and Justin went alone. Justin had not gone home for three days, but Lucia kept vomiting in these three days. Her mouth was bitter and her throat was swollen and sore, so she had to go to the hospital. The twin pregnancy was eventually confirmed. Twins! God had really made a big joke with her. She and Justin did not have good terms, could pregnancy be considered happy? Lucia pinched the test paper, walking back and forth in the hospital aisle, thinking what she should do. She went back to the doctor. The doctor sat in the mid of pile of paper, she said without raising her head, "You are pregnant, do you want to keep the baby? If you don¡¯t, abort it before it''s toote, or it will make you suffer." Lucia got a jolt when she heard that and fled out like a ghost. Outside the hospital, she sat on the stairs and burst into tears with her face buried in her hands. If the twins werepensation for her, she wanted to let go of everything and live her life well. It took her a long time to calm down, and then she made a call to Justin, "Justin,e home for dinner today, I have something to talk to you." "She hasn''t recovered physically." "I have things important to tell you." "Handle it yourself." "I''ll wait for you, and if I don¡¯t see you home, I''ll go to the hospital and pull out Esther''s oxygen tube!" Lucia said gamely and hung up the phone. In the evening she made three dishes and a soup. During the two years of marriage, they never had a good time eating together. But now she got pregnant and she should give her kids a warm home. No sooner had the meal been served than she heard the door was opening. Lucia ran over to open the door, grinning towards the man, but only to see Justin¡¯s fatigue and indifference. Justin walked past Lucia carrying the smell of the hospital''s disinfectant. He uttered as he walked upstairs, "I''ll take a shower and go to the hospital in a minute, I''ll pick you up tomorrow and go get the divorce papers." Delicious food had been ignored. Lucia had been standing downstairs, wearing slippers, a ruffled apron. She had lost weight in the past few days and her eyes looked therefore bigger, which now were locking at the stairway. She was there waiting. Justin showered and got changed before he came downstairs. As he walked past her, she stopped him, "Stay home tonight. I have something to tell you, the hospital has nurses." "She needs me right now." "I need you too." Justin broke Lucia''s hand away with force, "Lucia, you didn''t die for me." Lucia felt sore in her eyes but she smiled, so he wished her death? Chapter 5 Still Hate You Chapter 5 Still Hate You She had been suffering in loving him, why should she die? "I will not die. If Il die, other woman will sleep in my bed and give birth to your children and will beat my children. I won''t be happy as a ghost." Justin shook off Lucia''s hand, "Get out of my way!" Lucia arrived at the hospital ten minutester than Justin did. She was still dressed as she was at home, wearing an apron and not even changing her slippers, looking weird in the hospital. She stood by Esther''s bed and looked at Justin, "Come home with me, she will not die." Justin pointed at the closed-eyed woman on the hospital bed and lowered his voice, "Lucia! This is your sister!" "You''re my husband! She has her own parents to take care of her! What are you doing here?" Lucia couldn''t control her temper as she clenched her fists! Justin sneered, "What am I doing? Don''t you know?" Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. Lucia bit her lip. Of course she knew Esther was the woman Justin had wished to marry to! But marrying Lucia was apulsion. She could have given up, but now that she was pregnant, so she wanted to give her kids a father. From now on, Justin must assume the responsibility of a father! "I don''t care if you love her or not and how much you love her, you''re my husband! And you should stay by my side!" "Lucia, is it so important to hold me in your hands? Is it that important to make Esther hurt?" "Yes!" With him around, her kids would have a father and aplete home. Justin was gloomy as he heard that. Lucia used him as a tool to get back at Esther, why should he fulfill her dream? "I won''t let you get what you want, Lucia. I love Esther, when Esther is well, I will divorce you and marry Esther! You have to agree! In J City, you can fight against Esther, but you can''t fight against me!" Having those words said, Justin finally felt better, he wouldn''t let himself be reduced to a tool! Lucia took deep breaths repeatedly, like the air was filled with ss splinter thatcerate her lungs, making breathing really hurt ...... Davis and Esther''s biological mother Polly Mitchell were both present. Polly seemed to be nice and advised Justin, "Justin, don''t be angry, although Lucia doesn''t take Esther as her sister, it doesn''t matter, she will understand when she grows up, after all Esther often said that Lucia was her family." The implication was that Esther valued Lucia, but Lucia was heartless. Lucia lost her sanity gradually. These people were really disgusting, taking away her mother''s shares, designing a scandal to force her to get married, making the man she loved hate her, and now making her kids lose their father. Since so, she would not let them lead a peaceful life! Lucia rushed over and ripped off the needle on the back of Esther''s hand. Pretending to be unconscious, Esther''s brow tightened and then loosened. Justin pushed Lucia away, "Lucia! How you dare hurt Esther!" Lucia crashed on the stand at the end of the bed as she watched her husband look at her like an enemy in order to protect another woman! Luciaughed bitterly, "Justin, do you know what the true face of the woman you like is?" "She''s so much better than you!" "Don''t you care even if she''s hurt you? Do you still love her?" Lucia asked. Justin did not like that and wondered what kind of hate could make this woman fight with her own sister for 11 years regardless of the cost? She could even sacrifice herself just to hurt her sister? "So what if she''s hurt me? I still love her! Still hate you!" Justin was in joy! He saw the light in Lucia''s eyes dim, it was the dullness of a loser! He won her! Lucia exhaled a long breath and her shoulders fell, she lost,pletely, like a defeated rooster. Justin and Esther had true love and she was a third party between them. It was the third party who had not been loved ...... She loved him so humbly, but what she got was sadness and disappointment. "Is that so?" Luciaughed out, "Do you know who set us up to sleep together two years ago?" Chapter 6 Truth of That Year Chapter 6 Truth of That Year Dear users, thank you for reading our stories. Whole book purchase option is now avable. (Pay 799 coins to read the whole book. ) Thanks for your support ! Hearing that, Davis and Polly''s faces changed drastically, and Esther''s eyelids, which had been closed, got tremble! Davis rushed over and pped Lucia hard in her face! Lucia stumbled and fell against the wall, his ears buzzing, only to hear Davis cursing loudly, ''''Your sister is dying, and you stille to make a scene! What a snake heart you have! If you''re not here to visit your sister, get lost!" Polly also rushed over, kicking and punching Lucia, "You didn''t like her since you were young, now you want her to die!How can you be so cruel! I''ve always treated you like my own child!" Davis grabbed Lucia''s wrist and dragged her out, "Get the hell out of here! I never had a daughter like you!" Lucia tried hard to break free from Davis''s hand, and Polly came over to drag her out too. Lucia turned her head to look at Justin who was striding over, ''''Justin! I told you! I didn''t set you up! The person who set you up was the woman you love the most!" Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. Justin looked at the blood at the corner of Lucia''s mouth and snatched her out of Davis''s grasp as he squeezed her harder than Davis! The blood at the corner of her mouth reflected in his eyes, which were scarlet! "What did you just say!" Lucia shrank in pain, and Davis said sharply, "Justin! Don''t listen to her nonsense! She has never treated her sister well since she was a child!" Justin caught Polly''s shoulder who was to drag Lucia with the other hand, staring at Lucia with unblinking eyes, a solemn aura permeating his body! It''s unusually terrifying! "Say it again!" Lucia gasped, "At first, it was my father and Esther set you up, because my mother knew that I grew up liking you, and the content of her will was that as long as I married you for two years, her shares could all be given to Esther, and my mother felt we would children in two years, and my marriage would be solid because of that. So, my father, in order to give Esther all her share, set you up two days before your engagement and let the media shoot it, so that your family would force you to marry me for the sake of reputation......" Davis shouted at this moment, "You''re talking nonsense!" "I am not, you can go check the change of shareholding." Lucia looked at Justin who was much higher than her, she wrinkled her eyebrows, with tears in her eyes, "Justin, you keep thinking that you are aggrieved, that I have caused you not to get the woman you love, but do you know I''m the one who is the most pitiful and aggrieved? My father framed me and my mother with his another daughter. I love you, but I was also like a princess to my mother, I also want to marry someone who loves me, I also want to be happy, I also want to be loved. You''ve been forcing all your hate on me for two years, and I''m innocently suffering from that hate!" Justin''s breathing was chaotic. Lucia slided down against the white wall, with sweat over her face. He tried to pull her up but she continued sliding down, her face getting paler and paler. "What''s wrong with you?" He''d never cared for her, never asked how she was doing. Lucia took several deep breaths, and his voice was getting lighter and lighter to her because of the pain Justin''s gaze went downward, only to see Lucia covered her belly with her hands, more and more blood flowing down between her legs while she looked in more and more pain. His scalp tingled as he let go of her wrists and picked her up, "Lucia! What the fuck are you hiding from me!" "I wanted to tell you tonight that I ...... am pregnant." Lucia grabbed his shirt cor and fixed her eyes at his jaw, it was the first time he looked at her with such anxiety. "I think we can finally have a family, even if you don''t love me, it doesn''t matter, you might like the baby, you might not like it even at first, but it might look like you, and you''ll like it in the future." She hurried to draw breath in one painful gulp. "Stop it!" Justin held Lucia and panicked as he shouted, "Doctor! Doctor!" Blood dripped down from Lucia''s hip like threads, trailing brilliant colors throughout the cold walkway. Justin turned back in panic and identally saw the long line of blood, which was shocking to the eyes! His whole body tightened, and his heart followed suit! How could he be so scared? He wasn''t even scared when Esther killed herself, but he was so scared that he couldn''t even make a sound in his throat when Lucia was bleeding. Lucia was weak, "The baby is gone, probably I deserve the retribution. God punished me for having you without caring about my happiness, that''s why I was given the baby and then lost it. If I had been peaceful and agreed to divorce, maybe... maybe my baby would have grown up in my belly bit by bit ...... I ...... I really should have let you go ......" Chapter 7 Agree to Divorce Chapter 7 Agree to Divorce Justin could no longer listen, every word Lucia said was like a needle, pricking his heart more and more deeply, and he could clearly sensed the pain. "Stop it, stop it ......," Justin ran forward with Lucia in his arms and saw the nurse running over pushing the bed! "I agree to the divorce ...... I agree ......," Lucia''s voice weakened, and her hand that catching Justin''s shirt slowly loosened and hung down feebly. Justin panicked, "Lucia!" Turning to yell for a doctor, he saw the chief physician of this hospital - Victor, who was his schoolmate. Since when had he and Victor be strangers? Probably since Victor began his pursuit of Lucia. Victor hacked the campuswork and announced on it that he would only marry Lucia. Back then he felt Victor had a problem and did not like him anymore, so in then end unfriended him. Victor was stunned when he saw Lucia, who was being held by Justin, and with a sullen face, he snatched Lucia from Justin''s arms, carefully ced her on the pushing bed, then pushed the bed and ran in the direction of the resuscitation room. Victor shouted irritably, ''''Hurry to the resuscitation room! Hemorrhage! Take blood for tests! Call the blood bank! Hurry up! Slow heartbeat! Call the specialists and chiefs who don''t have surgeries to the resuscitation room! Hurry! Oxygen!" Victor¡¯s instruction made Justin nervous. His hands began to tremble! It was as if he had just hugged something particrly valuable and suddenly he lost it. His hands were covered in her blood. Dangerous? Lucia would not be in danger! Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. Justin ran over after Victor, "Lucia is not in danger, right?" Victor gazed at Justin with endless hatred and anger in her eyes, "To be with you is the greatest danger to her!" "Victor!" Justin gritted his teeth, "Do you want to fight me?!" "I should have fought with you when you and Lucia announced your marriage! She wouldn''t have ended up in a situation where she had to be resuscitated!" Victor raised his hand and pushed Lucia into the resuscitation room! "Resuscitation!" Justin, however, was blocked from continuing to rush over by the closed door of the resuscitation room. Nurses ran out. The faster they moved, the more tormented Justin was. When he went back at night, Lucia had said that she wouldn''t die, or another woman would beat her child. He did not understand her at that time. He didn''t even care what she was saying at the time, but when had he ever cared about her? Justin had been waiting in the hallway for the doctor toe out, and all he saw was nurses running constantly, in and out to get sma. It was an endless ordeal, and he strode over towards the resuscitation room, but before his hand barely touched the doorknob, the nurse with a mask pulled him away. "Are you the patient''s family or not! Do you want her alive?" Justin''s mind went boom! He got furious! "That''s my woman lying in there! How could I not want her alive!" Justin, who was already an extremely self-righteous controller and had the ability to adapt and even change to anything, was of course very offended by the nurse''s words. The nurse said, "She has a chromosomal problem, has difficulty conceiving, now she is miscarrying, the fetus is half detached staying in the uterus, forcibly stripping the remaining part. She is bleeding heavily. Unable to stop the bleeding, the wound has been open, so it is easy to infect. You are covered in bacteria, if you want her to die soon, go in and let her infect!" After that, the nurse went in and closed the door. Justin stood outside the door, his temples was jumping violently. Feeling dizzy and painful, he wanted to go outside for a cigarette, but he did not dare to leave for his woman was in danger. He''d never worried too much about Lucia like this before. Chapter 8 Bleeding a Lot Chapter 8 Bleeding a Lot Sheng sat on a green stic chair in the hallway, bent low, elbows propped in hisp, palms wiped haphazardly across his face in a flurry, exhaling heavily. Polly ran over in her high heels, pulling Justin and started sobbing, "Justin, go see Esther, the doctor said she''s in a bad situation!" Justin didn''t look up but saidzily, "Get the doctor." Polly was bbergasted and looked at the words "resuscitation room", gritting her teeth, "Esther was already getting better, but the doctor said she was in aa because of the stimtion! It''s all Lucia''s fault! Hurry up and divorce her!" Polly relied on the fact that Esther had save Justin and that Justin was known to like Esther, she med Lucia. Depressed, Justin took a long breath, sat straight and then leaned his head against the wall, and in the end she spat out impatiently, "Get lost." "What?" "Don''t make me say it twice, or I''ll make you die with my son." Justin''s voice was not loud, even weak, but a murderous and decisive aura was born from such a weak tone! Polly was shocked into silence, but after a while, she still opened her mouth, "How do you know it''s a son? How could Lucia give birth to a son?" Justin looked at Polly with hostility in his eyes, "Even if it''s a daughter, it''s my daughter! You don''t deserve to even touch one of her toe!" Justin got furious as he said that. He stood up, grabbed Polly by the shoulders and held her against the wall! "Do you think you don¡¯t have to die if it is a daughter?" Polly was so frightened that she was trembling! "Justin, Justin, I have to go back to take care of Esther, let go!" Justin pushed down Polly, watching her fall to the ground with a mocking sneer, "I don''t have time to deal with it now, but one day, you will see the consequence! Get lost!" Polly stumbled all the way in panic! Justin didn''t know what was wrong with him, he just felt like restraining himself at the moment because Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. Lucia''s words had touched him. Maybe he should behave well untill Lucia was safe. Lucia had shed so much blood but he had done nothing for her, so he¡¯d behave well...... After a day and two nights had passed, doctors from the fourth shift went into the resuscitation room, and even foreign specialists rushed to the resuscitation room. Justin finally could not be calm. His patience was at its limit! His painful red eyes, moustache, handsome but cold face made him look like a trapped beast. He didn''t admit that he cared for Lucia, but Lucia was his wife, and how could he sit still when his wife was in danger? Wasn''t it a husband''s duty to keep her safe? He stood up and stopped a doctor who had juste out for his shift! "I''m going in!" His eyes were scarlet! "That''s a resuscitation room, you''re just her family member!" Justin was so angry! "Howe it takes so long! She just had a miscarriage! So many women have miscarriages every year! Why should it take a day or two for my woman? One day and two nights is even enough for a heart surgery!" Why! Why other women were all right, but Lucia had been severe! Chapter 9 Inability to Have Children Chapter 9 Inability to Have Children Justin did not trust this top private hospital, so he called the secretary to immediately get the helicopter, and was ready to take Lucia to a hospital abroad. But these doctors scared him with "move and she''ll die". Justin was intimidated by the doctors'' words. He could have not transferred her to another hospital, but he had to go in and see how his woman going! In the end, Justin used his social status and connections to get the hospital to open the door to the resuscitation room for him. He disinfected, changed his clothes, put on a hat, a mask, brushed his hands and nails with soap, and then walked into the resuscitation room. Lucia, with tubes in her mouth and nose, lied quietly on the operating table, her legs propped high and open by a brace, her face as white as death. She used to dare do anything, but since when did she be so vulnerable? She was transfusing clear fluid in the back of one hand and sma in the other. It had been a day and two nights. Why did she still need a transfusion? How much blood did she lose? The numbers on the instruments kept bouncing, the doctors spoke their jargon calmly among themselves, and the entire operating room felt like a war. He was the only one standing there, not knowing what to do. He didn''t even dare to go over and take her hand for fear that he might identally hurt her. Dizzy as hell, Justin turned around and walked quickly out of the resuscitation room, he couldn''t stay in any longer. Every whiff of disinfectant water burrowed into his nostrils, and all that came to mind was the image of Lucia¡¯s face as tragically white as death. Early the next morning, the hospital informed that there was not enough Rh-negative blood in J City, and now they had to seek for help through the radio. Justin didn''t know how he felt at that moment, but that the world had gone fucking crazy! He could not even breathe! Esther found Justin after hearing the notice, she didn''t look in good spirits, "Justin, I can give my sister a blood transfusion, she gave me one when I was a kid, but, I have a condition. You promise me to divorce my sister and marry me!" Justin looked at Esther with a sense of strangeness, was this still the same Esther who was not afraid of being buried and risked her life to save him from the earthquake ruins? He wanted to wait, but with the uncertainty of Rh-negative blood, he couldn''t afford to wait ...... Lucia was saved by Esther almost draining her blood. Davis and Polly looked at Justin sadly, "Justin, please be nice to Esther. Lucia didn''t like her since she was a child, but she even was willing to sacrifice her life for you not to feel guilty! That silly child!" Justin snorted, "I know what to do." When looked at Davis and Polly, those two were shaken by his gaze and banned in unison. What did he mean? Would he take revenge for Lucia for they had beaten her? At this point, the two could only hope Esther would be able to capture Justin''s heart. C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org After the operation, Justin was called to the office by the dean, and just as he sat down, the dean said heavily, "Mr. Sutton, your wife will not be able to have children in the future." Justin''s breath trembled slightly, but he calmly sneered, "People who are born unable to have children can be cured, not to mention that my wife has already conceived once. This ident will not happen again in the future." Not to mention it wasn''t an ident! At this, Justin clenched his fingers and the ruthlessness in his eyes gradually surfaced! Chapter 10 He Doesnt Love Me Chapter 10 He Doesn''t Love Me The dean said, "She has chromosomal problems, it was lucky that she got pregnant. In this miscarriage, the embryo did notpletely detach from the uterus, so the uterus can only be cleaned up by instruments. Under the emergency that she has been bleeding heavily, we can only save her life, but the instruments caused damage to her uterus ...... " Justin could not ept that he would not be able to have children in the future, no man born into a wealthy family could ept it! He was out of control as he stood up! "This is medical malpractice caused by you!" The dean gulped, he was afraid when Justin got angry, but he could only continue to talk with a stiff upper lip, "Mr. Sutton, all the risks were informed when you signed, and at that time you confirmed that the only way to remove the embryo that was not detached was to use an apparatus, and now there is no hospital in the world that would dare to guarantee that the uterus is undamaged when doing a cleanse." Justin admitted that he chose to save her life in front of the odds of infertility. Saving Lucia''s life was his choice, but after Lucia''s life was saved, he wanted to trash this hospital! He smashed the dean''s office! The dean hid far away and didn''t even dare to stop him, because the man looked like he was going to chop him up. After Justin left in a murderous mood, Esther walked into the dean''s office and pushed a stack of racy photos to the dean, "I keep my word, let Justin know that Lucia can no longer have children, I will return these racy photos to you." The dean hurried to put away his racy photos and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Miss Esther, what if she gets pregnant again in the future?" Estherughed, "I won''t give Lucia a chance to conceive, if the Sutton family knows that Lucia can''t have children, she will be driven out of the house!" The dean was anxious, not really knowing which was more terrible, to save his social reputation or to deceive Justin. Four dayster, Lucia woke up without seeing Justin. Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. What she saw was the divorce papers sitting on her bedside table. The moment she saw the divorce paper, sheughed with tears on her face. Justin had said so clearly that the person he loved was Esther, and he would divorce her and marry Esther. How could she not see through it? Eleven years. How did she get through it? From the age of 13 to see him, she always found all kinds of excuses to go to his house. She got bitten by a dog, so she was afraid of dog, but she tired to y with his dog. Feeling fearful inside, she pretended that she had fun. She kept a dairy for him, to record what he liked, and made troubles for the girls who liked him. He had been a dream for her, she studied hard, so that one day she could mot closer to him, so that she could be excellent as him, so that she was a match to him. She drank milk that that made her sick, just hoping to grow taller, so she was tall enough to match him. When she was 19, she felt she was good enough, so she confessed her love to him, but he ignored her. So she posted it on the newspaper and sent him flowers, trying to pursue him. But at the time she knew that Esther had confessed her love for Justin three months ago. And the person he liked was Esther. She stopped pursuing him and pretended that she had never loved him before, and dared not look at him again, as if she was thief for fear that she would be found that she had stolen something... She did not have a wedding when she got married to him, but she was happy, because she could use the marriage paper to defeat all her viral in love. But he did not love her. Clenching the divorce pater, she tried to lie down quietly and was ready to lead a refresh life after some sleep. But as soon as she closed her eyes, tears burst out and flew down to her ears.... The divorce paper got twisted, her shoulders began to tremble, and the depressing breath was out of control, and in the end, she cried out. The air in the ward was stained with sadness. Victor walked in lightly and then closed the door, his eyes grew slightly red, ¡°Lucia, do you remember my words? Don¡¯t be emotional. You have to eat something, for you have a baby in your belly, you know?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± She responded, sobbing. Chapter 11 Depressed Chapter 11 Depressed The midday sun was shut out of the curtains, and Luciay in bed, unable to sleep, and rolled over. The door to the ward was opened, she sat up and saw Esther walk in. Esther had been discharged from the hospital. Wearing a skirt and high heels, imposingly holding her arms, she looked askance at Lucia who was in bed with a smile, "How is your mood after the miscarriage?" Keeping Victor''s words in mind, Lucia did not respond to Esther, not getting angry. Esther was holding a small ss bottle filled with an unknown transparent liquid, a small flesh colored ball was soaking inside the liquid, she and shook the bottle, "Do you know what this is?" Lucia frowned tightly, "What?" "Well, it is your baby." Lucia''s face paled miserably and her emotions was hard under control, "What did you say!" "Wanna know how I got it?" Esther continued to shake the bottle, "Haha, money makes the devil work, so I got it. No one wants an aborted embryo anyway, I think it will be exciting to take it to Thand to raise a ghost. I wonder how much resentment it has." Lucia''s scalp tingled, even if she didn''t believe in ghosts, hearing Esther say that, she was going crazy! It was her baby in there! "Give it back to me!" Lucia''s voice trembled and her heart trembled along with it as she tried to admonish herself to listen to Victor, to be calm, to eat, because she wasn''t alone now! But when she saw the small bottle in Esther''s hand, she couldn''t stop the tears, her heart was like ripped open with pain. "You want it back? But it is dead." Estherughed madly and shook the bottle violently, "I heard that the child in the womb is soaked in amniotic fluid, so I soaked it with formalin, do you think I am good to it?" Lucia grabbed her left chest and wanted to get out of bed to grab it, but she promised Victor that she would rest in bed, she couldn''t get angry, she couldn''t be emotional, so she gritted her teeth, "You lied to me!" "Haha! I knew you were going to say that, so I even had a DNA test done on this little bitch, and indeed you stole my man to conceive it." Esther tossed the DNA identification certificate to Lucia, "Take a look at it." Lucia picked up the identification certificate and looked at the lines of data with her hands shaking, she felt like she couldn''t keep up with her breathing, "Esther! Give it back to me! Give it back to me!" "Haha, it¡¯s really happy to see you like this, a mistress like you deserves a miscarriage, the doctor said you won''t be able to have children in the future, do you know that? Well, because you''re a mistress, you baby went to hell!" Lucia couldn''t stop her tears and stared at the small bottle in Esther''s hand, when Esther saw that, she shook the bottle even more violently, "I am ying with it! If it does not feel well, it can only me its mother for failing to protect it!" Lucia finally broke down! She lifted the covers and jumped out of bed, rushing towards Esther! "Give it back to me!" "Lucia! What are you doing!" Victor pushed open the room door and rushed over to embrace Lucia! "What are you doing! Why are you so disobedient!" Lucia grabbed the white coat of Victor and looked at him, crying miserably, "Victor! I have endured it! But she did not leave me alone! I beg you, snatch the ss bottle out of her hand! Please!" Victor looked at Esther and Lucia shouted hysterically, "That is my baby!!!" Seeing Victor''s beady eyes, Esther shrank in fear and intended to leave, but was thrown to the ground by Victor with a tug! Without a word, he snatched the small bottle from Esther''s hand and ced it in Lucia''s hand, spitting at Esther, "Get lost!" Esther reluctantly crawled out, "I''m going toin to the hospital about you!" Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. Victor said disdainfully, "This hospital is owned by my family! Go sue if you have the guts!" After Esther fled away, Lucia held the small bottle, her eyes were listless and depressed ...... Chapter 12 She Is Gone Chapter 12 She Is Gone Lucia disappeared, like she had never been in J City, even her record of a bank card or travel could not been found. It was like she had been expelled from the city overnight. Justin returned to J City a monthter and checked all the records, but found nothing. Closed business meetings in the United States were held on and off for a month, with trade secrets not to be divulged. Allmunication tools must be turned off for all participants in the meeting, including the cleaners. During this month, he had originally arranged a servant of the Sutton family to take care of Lucia, but the Sutton family used their connections to get them divorced after knowing that Lucia could not have children again. Then Lucia disappeared from J City. There was no sign of her in the city, even when she took a taxi out of the hospital, she avoided ces with cameras. Lucia had liked Justin for 11 years, since she was 13 years old, she had been around him, she even asked him with simple questions deliberately, pretending she did not understand, "Justin, what is the answer, I don¡¯t know it." "Think for yourself, and when you have the answer, eat at my house, and if you don''t, go right back to your house!" She then soon got the answer, so she ate in his house and even slept there. She often used these tricks during the winter and summer holidays. But now she was gone, as if she had never been in his world. Justin felt calm, for it was just divorce. Anyway, he did not love her. She had a miscarriage, but he had tried his best to have the doctor resuscitate her, and when he had to leave the country, he arranged her a servant to take care of her. Her life was only saved by his signature. He didn''t owe her anything. Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. He told himself that Lucia was nothing to him. He did not love her, and two years of marriage was nothing ...... Their divorce was a relief to each other. For a year, Justin did not return to the house where he had lived with Lucia, for he was very busy with expanding his business empire. When someone mentioned his wife, he corrected it in a gentlemanly way, "She is my ex-wife." Justin had often been in entertainment headlines for his scandal with a famous model, a movie queen, etc. He lived in the vi where he lived before he got married, and his study was full of newspapers with scandals about him from the year. When he went back to the Sutton family for dinner every week ording to the rules, sitting at the big table, his grandfather admonished him, "You''re the head of the Sutton Group, what are you doing in the newspapers with those women! You''re not going to stop until you''ve ruined the Sutton Group''s reputation, are you?!" He moved elegantly and slowly picked up the food, "My identity can hype up their value, and their news buzz can increase the Sutton Group''s exposure, it is mutually beneficial, without spending a penny on advertising." His tone was light, but he made the elders so angry that they couldn''t eat, "Even if you want to increase the exposure of the Sutton Group, you don¡¯t need to change woman one after another! You just need to find one with news buzz!" Heughed, "How uninspiring would that be for the audience?" "Why you care about that?" His grandfather leaned back in his chair, mmed his cup! "You have been trying to anger the family! Did you resent me for using your mother¡¯s connections to get a divorce for you and Lucia! You said you didn''t love her, and since she could not be pregnant, so I satisfied your wish! What! Since you have divorced the woman you don¡¯t like, you are angry with me now!" Justin said calmly, without raising his head, "Thank you, grandpa for making it happen." After saying that, he got up, "I have a meeting in the evening, so I gotta go, enjoy your food." Seeing that Justin had already walked out of the dining room, his grandfather grabbed the bowl and smashed it towards that back! Justin left without looking back. Everyone present was frightened, and Justin¡¯s father James rushed to support him, "Dad, don''t be angry, don''t be angry!" His grandfather Leonard pointed at Justin''s back and scolded, ''''See how he behaves! He used to stay at here one night a week, now he left with a meeting as an excuse! Is he the president of the world who has to fight terrorism and hunt down ISIS? He always ims to have a meeting, who doesn¡¯t he go and hold a memorial service for me!" "Dad! Don''t say that, I''ll take care of him!" During this year since Lucia left, Justin was like a peaceful sea, though he was powerful. But only his grandfather dared to yell at him and scold him, others would be silenced as soon as he gave them a look. It was known that Justin did not love Lucia, but everyone had a tacit agreement not to mention the name "Lucia". Chapter 13 Blood from a Sore Spot Chapter 13 Blood from a Sore Spot Time went by, Justin''s temper grew more and more irritable, and many times he found himself with an uncontroble urge to turn the city of J City upside down. The name Lucia burrowed into his head day and night, and no matter how much he tried to calm his mind, it didn''t help. He definitely would not go to ces where Lucia had stayed. When he used to go back to the Sutton¡¯s every week with Lucia, they would stay in the suite on the third floor. It was a ce that smelled like Lucia, and he couldn''t stay there, fidgeting. Justin sted his way to "Blue Forest Court". Blue Forest Court was a house where Lucia''s mother''s ashes were ced. The maid guarding Blue Forest Court was still amiable. She didn''t know about Lucia''s departure, but kept asking Justin to bring her there next time and asking when they were nning to have a child. Justin did not want to mention the word of "child", for it had be a taboo in his heart. He went upstairs to the altar. Justin saw the letter box on the incense stand, all of which were letters handwritten by Lucia to her mother. -- Mom, Their varsity basketball teampeted again today and won the championship. I knew they would win for he is in the team. He is awesome, I like him. He''s my dream. Mom, please bless me with my dream! -- Mom, When I plowed him out of the rubble with my bare handsst month after the earthquake in C Province, my heart broke with pain, I was so afraid he would die. But then when I woke up, it turned out to be a fact that it was Esther who saved him, so maybe it was indeed Esther who saved him after I was knocked unconscious by the b. I do not care he does not love me, what does it matter if the person who saved him is me? Anyway, after he and Esther got together, I don¡¯t want to appear in front of them. Feeling inferiority -- Mom, You once we are a good match. But I was not worthy of him. To marry him, I gave up the family''s inheritance topensate for Esther, so I had no dowry and was sneered at in my inws. But I love him, and I chose to marry him, I have to insist ...... -- Mom, I was sick yesterday with a fever of 42 degrees, I called him and he said he was busy and told me to take care of it myself. Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. I cried when he hung up the phone. I was proud in front of everything, but inferior to him. I dare not say that I did not feel well, for fear that he would say I''m pretentious and look down on me ...... I felt so helpless and miserable ...... -- Mom, He came back from drinking yesterday, threw up, I didn''t want to bother with him, for he did not care about mest month. But in the end I still cleaned him up, changed his clothes, fed him with honey water; I was afraid he would get sick and I would be heartbroken. I couldn''t be cruel, I like him like a bitch. Obviously he never put me in his eyes, God, I deserved it, I deserved it ...... -- Mom, Miss you so much. You''re not around me, I don''t have a hug to snuggle into, I feel so lonely, like I have nowhere to go. Maybe someday I''ll die on the road and probably no one will collect my body, much less feel sorry for me ...... Mom, I''m all alone ...... I want to go to you, at least, you love me ...... ...... Justin read all the letters, his body like suddenly turned into a paper sheet, a breath could make it shake. His breathing and fingers were trembling, in panic, he wanted to put the letter into the envelope, but one by one they fell on the ground. He tried to pick them up, but failed. If he had known that he would be too distraught to stand after reading, he would not have read it. All the suppressed emotions he''d been feeling all year had finally found an outlet; he missed her deadly. For over a decade, he''d gotten used to her chatter, to her pestering, to her aggression, and even more to the love she gave. And now everything was gone ...... So this was what heartache felt like, every tiny hair turned into a steel needle, densely packed down the pores all over his body. Lucia''s name was like a pen handwriting that had been written on his chest, and he didn''t bother with it. The color grew darker and darker, and it grew into a tattoo that didn''t hurt and stuck to his heart. He''d long been used to it, but now it was being plucked out with a knife. When he looked down to find the mark, he could no longer find it, seeing only blood dripping, and it hurt a lot ...... Chapter 14 One Body, Two Lives Chapter 14 One Body, Two Lives It hurt so much that Justin held his forehead and leaned against the wall. After reading the letters, he realized that he yed an important role in Lucia¡¯s life during those 11 years. She spent all her time with him, from that time she looked at him innocently and tenderly, to the timidity that flowed out, and thenter, when his indifference lynched her fondness and love, she grew colder and colder just like him. He sent her to the guillotine of love with his own hands. Now it hurt to hold the love she once had to him. Justin left Blue Forest Court, heading to No. 1 Vi. When he found Owen, he said bluntly as he entered the house, "I want to thoroughly investigate Lucia''s whereabouts again." Owen closed the door, frowned at Justin and said suspiciously, "Didn''t you investigate herst time? I have no record of it." Justin poured himself a ss of water, and gulped it down, "I want to investigate Victor. They disappeared together, so I guess they should have changed their identities." "What?" Owen walked to Justin, "Lucia and Victor eloped?" Justin¡¯s eyes went dim, revealing warning as his mind had been seen through. Owen waved his hand sensibly, "I''m kidding. It is known to everyone that Lucia loves you, so how could she be abducted by Victor with a few sweet words?" Owen knew in his heart that Justin had been like a dead volcano ready to erupt, which should have a great deal to do with Lucia''s departure. Why else he became a different person? He never attended the parties with friends and only focused on making money, just like a robot. Justin added, "Get every clue of it." "Ok, don''t worry, I will get every detail." Every day since he had left No. 1 Vi, Justin had been anxious. He had to read Lucia''s letter to her mother once a day. The image of Lucia kneeling alone in the rubble, crying and shouting his name while moving stones with her bare hands always appeared in his mind ...... Once the uncertainty was definitively clear, the screwed-up energy in his mind could not be loosened. In the past 11 years, Lucia got into his body little by little, became part of his body, and she stuck to his heart and had never left. He had only recently discovered that he was afraid of pain, so the bloody spot had been torn apart must be repaired when she returned. He would be no more pain as long as she came back. He was selfish, so he must find her! A weekter, Justin received a call from Owen, his voice on the phone was urgent, "Justin! Come to No. 1 Vi! Hurry!" Justin knew that it was about Lucia, so he drove fast to No. 1 Vi. As soon as he entered the door, Owen closed the door, his voice tense, "Drink some water first! Don''t worry." Seeing that, Justin couldn''t hold back his anger, "Owen! Just go ahead!" Owen''s lips trembled lightly as he pushed Justin towards the sofa. Justin couldn''t stand such an atmosphere and raised his hand to break away Owen''s hand! "Owen! If you dare fucking beat around the bush, I''ll throw you down the stairs!" Owen took a sign! "Justin, I am sorry." "What do you mean?" Justin''s palms tightened into fists, veins rising on the backs of his hands. Owen took out a stack of document and sat on the sofa spreading it out one by one, "Lucia left J City for New Zend after changing her identity together with Victor, and registered her marriage under her new name, you know, Victor has such ability to help Lucia change her identity. Today, Lucia died due to a postpartum hemorrhage and ording to her will, all organs will be donated ...... Here are the photos and information I just received. She died at 12:07 p.m. with her baby in belly." Justin shuddered, Lucia¡¯s miscarriage overshadowed his heart. He was afraid and hurtful, but he tried hard to pretend to look m, so that he was less weak. Justin grabbed the document in Owen''s hand - Lucia and Victor''s wedding photo, the photo of her lying on a hospital bed with a big belly, and the photo of a child not breathing. A verification of death was included, but that was not what he wanted to see! "What the hell is this! Who approved their wedding? I don''t believe it! It''s not her! She left after a miscarriage! How could she be pregnant again? I''m checking on her, and she''s dead? And she died today, there can''t be such a coincidence in the world!" Owen said helplessly, "She''s been gone for a year and a month, the father must be Victor! How could you be the father?" Justin closed his eyes and tried to suppress the agitated anger burning in his chest, "I don''t care! Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. Owen! Do something right now! I will see who dares to touch Lucia''s organs? I want to see her alive or dead!" Owen was silent for a while before he continued "Justin, that was Lucia''s wish. You are already divorced, you should respect her, and let her go to heaven in peace. Don¡¯t bother her anymore." Justin felt like he had suddenly reached the edge of a cliff, one step forward would kill him, but Lucia seemed to be hiding under that cliff, he had to jump down and pull her out! He couldn''t control his emotions, looking at Owen with eyes as red as mes, shouting! "We are not divorced! I was not there, so such a divorce is illegal! I don''t admit it! She is not dead! Don''t give me that fucking bullshit! I don''t have peace of mind, how can she have peace of mind! She said she loved me for 11 years, but why she married someone else? What kind of love is that? How dare she stop loving me without my permission? How dare she leave me and go to heaven! I''ll have her skin! I''ll make sure she goes to hell for eternity!" Justin was rarely angry to say so much, but after venting in one breath, all the energy in his body seemed to be in short supply, he was gasping for breath, his fingers shook as he took out his phone, which almost fell to the ground, and after dialing the phone number, he ordered coldly with a gloomy face, ''''Get me a private jet route for New Zend! Right now!" Chapter 15 Come Home With Me Chapter 15 Come Home With Me As the ne was in 30,000 feet high, Justin''s eyes asionally fell on the pile of document on the desk, but soon he averted his gaze and did not make a move to open it. He rejected this so-called evidence from the bottom of his heart! Owen examined Justin who was seemingly calm. They, the rich men with good family backgrounds, had been growing up with everything they wanted, so they never got hysterical over anything. Only people who failed to get things after working hard would get hysterical. But he saw hysteria in Justin today that had never been there before. Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. Owen knew that it was useless to oppose Justin now, he could only tell him some realistic situation in a serious tone, "We are not powerful in New Zend like in J City. Lucia''s husband is now Victor, and he has a lot of connections over there. Without Victor''s permission, if we take Lucia''s remains, it is against the localw. " Justin said contemptuously, "Again, she is still alive! Victor has a peaceful life because his family is backing him up, what if his family copses?" Owen was so surprised that he couldn''t say a word, and only now did he realize that Justin wasn''t acting on a whim. Probably he would not stop until he stirred up the world. For the sake of Lucia who has passed away, was it necessary to escte the conflict between two families? Owen did not dare to talk to Justin again, for fear that he would be irrational. After 10 hours or so, Justin arrived in New Zend and went straight to the hospital. Victor loved Lucia so much that he gave up his career at home, but he would not leave his family alone, so Justin had a way to make Victor suffer. Before Justin got on the ne, he called and threatened Victor¡¯s grandfather, "Mr. Phillips, Victor took away my wife, please tell him that if he gives her back, I will do nothing. Although it''s hard to make your I care nothing." Just as Justin was getting on the ne, negative news of thepany of Victor¡¯s family went wild, including the hospital and the retail industry. Victor stood outside the hospital, his eyes were red and swollen, his spirit was sluggish as if he had suffered a huge blow. He looked at Justin with hatred in his eyes, his fists clenched, "Organ donation is Lucia''sst wish, but because of your obstruction, the best time for donation was missed!" "Last wishes?" Justin sneered, "She is not dead. If she donates organs, you will tell me that her body has been ruined. The lie will always be unraveled. So, take me to see her." Justin''s aggressiveness and Victor''s anger filled the air. Victor was forced to face Justin due to the pressure of his family. He turned around and followed the medical staff inside the hospital. As they walked forward, Justin''s mood became heavy, as if those winding corridors seemed to have no end, which was getting darker and darker, making him insecure, "Why don''t you go to the inpatient department?" He could believe that Lucia was at the hospital, but this didn''t seem like the ce to be. Victor suddenly paused, his voice sobbing as he stopped, "I would have liked her to be hospitalized, that at least proves she is ...... still alive." Justin kept trying to do everything he could to ignore the sadness on Victor''s body as he took a deep breath and continued to follow Victor and the medical staff in an unknown direction, constantly admonishing himself that Victor was lying to him. Lucia loved him for more than ten years, so she was impossible to have a child with another man. These lies were just Victor''s way of getting him to give up. Outside the mortuary, Victor stopped in his tracks. Standing outside the door, Justin saw the words "mortuary" and instinctively refused to take a deep breath, "Where is she? Why bring me here?" "She is in there." Victor''s tears fell in a sh, his bitter mourning unstoppable, he leaned against the wall, his palms jammed hard against his forehead to cover his eyes and hide his wretchedness, "If you have to see her, go in. After that, I don¡¯t want to see you again in this life, and that''s Lucia''sst wish too!" Justin took a step back and tried to walk somewhere else, "Victor! You have to stop this!" Victor was physically exhausted, but he was still enraged at Justin! "I don''t want you to see her, because she doesn''t want to see you! If you hadn''t threatened me with the peace of my family, I couldn''t have let you disturb her peace!" Justin couldn''t breathe, he tugged at the cor around his neck and pulled off a button with a heavy tug, a breath in his chest was blocking him too death! "I will make you not be able to act!" Justin sneered, looking at the door in front of him with a look of victory on his face. The medical staff told them to put on their clothes, masks and hats, and the cold air poured in as Justin followed the staff inside. As the white cloth was uncovered, he saw that pale woman on the bed, revealing her familiar eyebrows, small mole on her brow, quietly closed eyes, straight nose and her small mouth. She fell asleep quietly. Everything was pale, even her usual cherry-pink lips went pale. Justin wanted to turn and run out, but his feet were like roots, forcing him to look closer, and the closer he looked, the harder it was to breathe. His body went cold and reached out to the woman''s nose. He kept saying in his mind that she was faking it, he wouldn''t let her get away with it and he''d take her back home! But after two minutes, three minutes, there was no breath. No normal person could hold back breathing like that, and he felt his sanity crumbling as the minutes ticked by. He stroked her cold face, cradled her head with his trembling hands. He had never been so wretched, even when he read the letters, he could hold back his the pain. But now, with tears sliding down the corners of his eyes, his face pressed against hers, his voice was mournful as he let out! "Lucia, Lucia, don''t put on such a bitter show, okay? I''ll treat you well from now on, I''ll let you do everything,e back with me, it''s too cold here! It''s too cold here! You are going to get sick!" Chapter 16 His Woman Chapter 16 His Woman Justin initially thought it was a fake when he saw Lucia''s body, maybe it was a drug reason and they were trying to scam him. But as time went by, he felt desperate as her cold body quietly lied in bed, like a dead body. Justin staggered upright, the cold air wrapped around his body. He turned and mmed his fist at Victor! No one could stop him! Justin pinned Victor to the ground, his fist mmed into Victor''s cheek, choking him hard. He was like a roaring beast, "Victor! Why did you take her away, but failed to take care of her! Why didn''t you take care of her!" Pulling Victor by his chest, he threw Victor another vicious punch! Justin yelled, "You killed her!" Justin held grief and anguish. He had been so proud that, even if Lucia and Victor left, he felt he would never go to her. There were so many women wanted to be with him, why should he go and find her? But at this moment, he felt his heart broken! In fact, he''d known he could not let her go, but didn''t dare face it. Now facing it, he felt he was close to be crazy for it was so cruel! Justin just wanted to beat Victor to death! He held resentment in his heart! "You know very well that she had an operation! She can''t have children! Why did you get her pregnant? Why? You murderer!" Justin swung his fist again, but was stopped by the medical staff. The two were dragged away from the Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. morgue and taken to the office! No one could be persuaded. Victor did not agree to call the police, so their fight escted. Justin was pulled by five strong doctors, for he was incredibly strong that he might pick up a chair and smash Victor to death! Victor was also furious, "Justin! If it wasn''t for you! If you hadn''t divorced her, if Esther hadn''t soaked her aborted embryo in formalin to stimte her, how could she have been so depressed that she wanted tomit suicide? How would she have left J City? You''re the murderer! If you hadn''t condoned Esther! Lucia''s health wouldn''t have gone down the drain since then! You''re all murderers!" Justin was covered in a stern aura, "Don''t you push your mistakes onto others!" Victor "bah", mockinglyughed, "All of you, every single one of you is scheming against her! Who is qualified to say that I push my mistakes onto others? Relying on that she liked you, that she would make concessions for you, you did harm to her! His father set you up to get married! Not only did he make her lose her shares in her family, but he used her guilt over stealing her sister''s boyfriend to persuade her to give up her inheritance and all her shares in the family! In the end, she had a miscarriage and Esther stimted her into madness while she was sick! Why did I take her away? Because she was alone and had no one to turn to! She begged me! She begged me to take her away! She had no one to turn to! I''m the only one she can count on! I''m the only one who can do what''s best for her!" When Victor got to the end, he cried out loud! Everyone present could feel his love, hate, sorrow and rage! Justin felt buzzing in his ears. He could only see Victor''s mouth opening and closing, but no voice. Chapter 17 Inseparable Chapter 17 Inseparable Once everyone knew that Lucia loved him, but he didn''t feel it. Everyone used her love to him to force her to give up everything she could rely on, and in the end when she married him, he didn''t give her anything to rely on ...... She had a home, a shelter, but he gave her wind and waves. No one to turn to ...... In the letter Lucia wrote to her mother, she also said that she had no one to turn to, she said that even if she died on the road, no one would collect her body and no one would feel sorry for her. She had no one to turn to, so she went to her mother. C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Justin''s heart was trapped by blood vessels so tightly that he was in the point of suffocation, and he regretted going to the United States for a meeting at that time. She was his wife, he should have been there for her, if he had been there for her, all the things that followed would not have happened. He should have given her care and made her feel warm. The guilt in Justin''s mind seemed like a sharp de, cutting him, and his aura gradually weakened, "I''m taking her back home." Victor roared! "No! She''s my wife now!" Justin''s eyes were still red, but he smiled and spoke coldly, "Your wife? You used a false identity to leave the country, and do you think you are protected by thew?" "We are protected by New Zendw! Lucia only wants organ donations and her ashes scattered into the sea. You take her back? Do you want to take her back for burial! She said she didn''t want to be bound anymore!" Justin snorted sarcastically, "Victor, she is my wife, even if she is cremated, it should be me, Justin, who signs! Her tombstone must be written with ¡®Mrs. Sutton¡¯!" Justin was in New Zend, and it was difficult to take a dead person away from the hospital morgue, so he could only threaten Victor with his family. Three dayster, Victor couldn''t stand hispany¡¯s frequent setbacks and plummeted stock price, and the Sutton Group was also suffered by the revenge by Victor¡¯s family, but Justin was like a madman, he didn''t answer all of his family''s calls, including his grandfather¡¯s. He''s bent on acting like a reckless devil! No one could do anything about him, his grandfather called Owen, "Owen! Please ask him to stop, if you fail, you can kill him! Let him die in New Zend! Throw him on the road and feed him to the wild dogs!" Of course Owen would not kill Justin, and he knew that Leonard said that out of anger, but he still conveyed his words to Justin. Justin called his grandfather, and his grandfather cursed over the phone, "You son of a bitch! Do you want to turn the world upside down! Do you want all the businessmen in J City to be our enemies!" Justin looked cold and calm as he held the phone and replied, "I''m just tracing the root of the matter, it was not only Victor took Lucia away. Grandpa, you know what I mean, you were all involved. I can make enemies with the whole world for the sake of Lucia, but I am only unwilling to hurt you. If you want me to die, no need to let Owen do it, just send a few of assassins, so that I can¡¯t fight back, maybe I will die in my dreams, leaving no aftermath." Justin''s voice was so calm that Leonard stretched his neck in anger, but finally dropped the volume, "You still me me!" Justin said bluntly, "Sure! I me everyone! But I am a member of the family, and you raised me, I can''t repay your kindness, so I can only put me on myself. Grandpa, Lucia has been by my side for 11 years, after the earthquake, she was covered in blood, but she still plowed me out of the rubble. Do you think she wasn''t afraid of death? It was only because she loved me. But in the end, Esther took the credit, and she never med anyone. She loves me as much as you do, willing to fight for me. In my heart, she is also my family, inseparable ......" Chapter 18 She Is Dead Chapter 18 She Is Dead Justin hung up the phone, and when Leonard burst into tears as he hung up the phone...... He smashed the phone at his daughter-inw, shouting with rage! "If it weren''t for youing every day to say that Lucia can''t have children, I wouldn''t have ended up in a situation where my most beloved grandson hates me!" Leonard no longer stopped Justin, but only united friends with his family to fight against Victor¡¯s family, and the influence of his family was always greater than that of Victor¡¯s family. So in the end, his family won. Unable to withstand the pressure, Victor finally surrendered and handed over Lucia''s remains, allowing Justin to bring her back home. Lucia''s wish was to be free, and even Justin could only do as she wished even though he was reluctant. In the crematorium. Justin held her hand which was cold, kneeling on the ground, with his face pressing against her hand, his voice tender, "I don''t want to cremate you, I want to preserve you for the rest of my life, but I''ve never done anything for you, never fulfilled any of your wishes, so even if I am reluctant to cremate you, I have to... ..." Owen stood by the side, looking at Justin weakly leaning against the female corpse, his eyebrows knitted, "If you cherished her back then, how could it end up like this?¡± But he was silent for fear that if he spoke it out, Justin would go crazy. What was more, to be able to transport Lucia''s remains back home, Justin spent a lot of money, and it was the consequence of the fact that he did not cherish her. "Lucia ......," Justin clutched her cold hand, "Believe me, when you came to my house to y, I was happy, but you never said that you liked me and there are so many boys like you. You said you have low self-esteem, in fact, I, I also have low self-esteem ...... since I was young, I heard that you are Victor''s child bride, and you never denied it. Lucia, I have low self-esteem in front of you... ...I always thought that the person you liked was Victor." Owen couldn''t believe that these were the words Justin said, how would Justin have low self-esteem? Was that why he pretended not to care? Justin watched Lucia''s remains being pushed into the fire, at that moment, those scorching red mes got into his chest cavity, burning his internal organs, painful like purgatory! That gate closed and his scalp tightened as he rushed through! Owen was quick to grab Justin with great force! "Justin! What''s wrong with you!" Owen couldn''t hold this madman by himself and tilted his head to shout at the workers, "Come help me C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org hold him! He''s crazy!" Workers ran over in unison, they were surprised too for they had never seen a family to be so crazy. How could he rush in? He would be killed! Justin tried to break free from the restraints but failed, and he shouted towards Owen, "You tell the workers to turn off the switch! I don''t want to cremate her! I''ll keep her so I can take her to see the outside world! I don''t want to cremate her! You tell them to stop! Stop!" Justin roared and struggled like mad, regretting it. Now at least he could still see Lucia, whether she was cold or not, at least it was her, but if she was cremated, he could only see her pictures ...... When the ashes box was held in Justin''s hands, he finally, after the sleepless days and nights, epted the fact ¨C she was dead. ¡®I love you and exhaust all my abilities but can no longer do anything for you ......¡¯ Chapter 19 Taking His Life Chapter 19 Taking His Life The light in the basement waxed and waned, making it impossible to tell the looks of the people inside. Justin satzily in his chair with his head on one side, gangly with his feet folded and teetering on an old table, casually ying with the beer can in his hand. His voice was calm but cold, "Who gave you permission to tell my family about my wife''s inability to have children?" "Mr. Sutton! Please spare me! I''m begging you! I really didn''t say that!" The dean was being set up against the wall by two strong men, already tortured to the point where his hair was messy and dripping sweat, his nose was bruised and swollen, and he was in an unusual state of distress. The beer can in Justin''s hand made a crunching sound, his body still leaningzily on the back of the chair, "I thought you were a dignified person, and I did not make it public, but now it seems you don¡¯t care." The dean''s eyes were so blue and swollen that he couldn''t open them, "Mr. Sutton, really, I really didn''t tell anyone, it was definitely Miss Esther. She was the one who asked me to tell you that Miss Lucia couldn''t have children, in fact, I wasn''t involved in that operation. She had a miscarriage, but I didn''t mind she could have children or not in the future. ...... It was Miss Esther forced me to do so by threatening me!" Only then did Justin raise his eyes to the dean who could no longer stand up straight, "Esther?" "Yes!" The dean regretted. If he had he known that he was going to mess with Justin, he would rather have his racy photos flying all over the ce, and if this went on, he would definitely be disgraced as well, who knows what would happen to him in the future. Justin stood up, gulped down the beer, threw the can onto the ground and smashed it with a stomp, "I nned to deal with itter, but you guys really have guts!" He kicked off the can on the floor with his leather shoes, and the can hit the wall and made a sound that scared Dean shivering, "Mr. Sutton! It''s not my fault, I''m a victim too! I''m a victim too!" "What a joke, isn''t the biggest victim my wife?" Justin''s voice was chill, though he was wearing a smile. The dean''s body shook uncontrobly and slid to the ground as he knelt to his knees, crying, he begged for mercy to this man twenty years younger than him, "Mr. Sutton! I''m sorry! I beg you to forgive me! I have family to support, please spare me!" Justin paced back and forth, his breath was sullen and depressed, "A doctor should be benevolent, but as a dean, you forgot your duty and led an unwarranted disaster to my wife, you are so unworthy of that white coat." At this, Justin felt his heart broken, looking at the can that he had kicked away, he murmured, ¡°When I was in the United States, I was thinking that if she could not give birth to a baby, we can have test-tube baby, or we could adopt a child, and we could hide it from the family. At that time I did not understand how important she was to me, but she had been with me for so many years, so I can¡¯t divorce her because she could not carry a baby. I have the responsibility to take care of her till we are old, as for children, I can see them when I die anyway." He walked onto the stairs step by step, making echo inside the basement. The dean did not dare to speak, and when he saw that Justin had almost reached the end of the steps, he was relieved, but he Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. heard Justin spoke in azy voice, "Since you don''t deserve to be a doctor, I think you don''t need your hands, so that you won¡¯t prescribe drugs indiscriminately, or a patient''s life would be lost in your hand." The dean was picked up by two strong men, thinking about Justin''s words. "Ahhhh!" A scream, along with the sound of bones cracking, the tendons of his hands were picked out. He could no longer pick up a scalpel anymore. The dean fell to the ground and twitched, "Ahhh! Justin Sutton! You''re killing me?" Chapter 20 How Bitter Can It Be Chapter 20 How Bitter Can It Be Justin stopped and inclined his head to look askance at the dean on the ground, "Well? You''re still alive, aren''t you? But my wife''s life is really gone, you used my wife''s life to exchange for your social status and fame. Do you think you are worthy of that? You owe her, and I''m going to get every bit of it back from you!" In the following day, news of the dean sleeping around with women and obtaining massive returns by colluding with pharmaceuticalpanies was spread, causing turmoil in the entire industry. The dean dare not go out and his wife filed for divorce, in end up, his hair went gray in two days. The Barrett Group¡¯s share price yesterday went well, suddenly it fell this day. Arge number of stocks concentrated on selling, within a week, it could not change the fact that the shares kept daily falling. Retail investors had no confidence and followed to sell, so its share price dropped, but then a number of private equity funds bought it with low price. Watching its share price slowly climbed up, the retail investors followed to buy it again. Two dayster, private equity funds sold it again, so it dropped for a week. The retail investors were panic. After selling it, they no longer bought it again. Whether state-owned banks ormercial banks no longer approved the loans from the Barrett Group, Davis could only use all his fortune in the bailout, and eventually even mortgaged his house to the bank. Davis tried to seek for Justin''s help, but Justin''s cell phone was answered by his secretary, saying that Justin had gone to a meeting abroad, formercial secrets, he could not answer the phone. Davis could just wait for Justin to return from abroad to offer him help. It was obvious that someone was screwing him, but he failed to find out who was behind.Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. So many private equity ounts across the country have banded together to short its share price, leaving thepany with no room to fight back. There was no news from Justin, so Davis wanted to mortgage "Blue Forest Court", but just before the mortgage was submitted, it was stopped by Justin. When Davis learns of that, he took Esther to find Justin, thinking that his savior had finally arrived. But when he found Justin at the altar of Blue Forest Court, he saw Justin polishing Lucia''s photo frame, next to a picture of Lucia''s mother. Davis swallowed ...... Justin put down the white cloth in his hand and said faintly, "You can¡¯t do anything about this house." Davis immediately went straight to the point, "Ok, you''re finally back! Do you know I have been waiting for you!" "Isn''t it normal to have ups and downs in the business world?" Justin turned his head after he finished speaking and looked at Davis with a smile, only that smile was too bizarre. It was still chill in September, but it gave Davis a bit of a chill. "Justin!" Esther stepped forward and took Justin''s arm, pouting, "It''s been over a year, you''re always missing. Thank god, you are back, please help us out, dad''s hair is so white from anxiety." "Ok, but I need coteral, otherwise the board won''t be able to approve it." Justin agreed readily, broke Esther''s hand away, and then headed for the door. Davis wondered why he spoke of the board of directors? But on second thought, it made sense, for it was a big amount of money, "Okay, but now my assets are all tied up in the bank." "Doesn''t Esther have my mother-inw''s shares? That counts." Justin sat on the sofa as he said that. Chapter 21 Youre Trying to Kill Me Chapter 21 You''re Trying to Kill Me Davis stood somewhat awkwardly on the edge of the sofa, standing like a subordinate reporting on his work. Justin had not been in touch with the Barrett family for a year, so Davis was awkward by Justin''s nonchnt attitude. Esther, with her fingers crossed, sat intimately next to Justin, "But they are mine now ......" "It doesn''t matter, you''re a family member. You can take it backter." Justin seemed to have a good temper, and no one could pick out a single mistake. But what Davis did not expect was that after these shares were pledged to Justin, his share price could not be saved at all, and the money borrowed from Justin was like a stone thrown into the sea, even the ripples were swallowed by the waves. When the money ran out, Justin refused to help any more, and when the mortgage went beyond the term, it belonged to Justin. Davis was falling apart! Again he came to Justin, but Justin snorted, "Didn''t you deserve it?" "Justin?" Justin looked like he was happy, standing by the wine cab, taking a red wine ss and pouring himself a ss of red wine, drinking slowly, "I got these shares back for Lucia, what her mother left behind naturally can''t fall into the hands of outsiders. If she sees these shares, she will be very pleased." "Justin Sutton! You are behind this, aren¡¯t you?" Justinughed out loud! "I originally just wanted to get back Lucia''s shares, but that day at the altar, when you guys saw Lucia''s picture, you were so cold that like you did not care she died!" Davis then remembered that he did see Lucia''s picture, but he was anxious and didn''t pay attention to it, "Lucia is dead?" "Yeah, are you happy?" Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. Davis was still shaken by this news. He did not want Lucia to inherit anything, and he didn''t even want to see Lucia, because Lucia''s existence reminded him of his history of relying on a woman to get his sess in business. But she was dead? It was his daughter after all, and his face nched, "What!" Justin sat in the sofa and crossed his legs, "Since you used me as a term to ask her to give up the inheritance, and since she doesn''t have the inheritance anyway, it means that the Barrett Group has nothing to do with her, so I don''t need to be merciful. I will make this disgustingpany disappear in the market." Davis''s eyes widened and he eximed incredulously, "How could you do this to me! I''m Esther''s father, and the person you love is Esther!" Justin found it funny, "Who do I love? Didn¡¯t you set me up? The person who pulled me out of the rubble with her bare hands was Lucia, what methods did you use to make her never talk about it?" "Justin! Let me exin!" "It''s been so long ago that there''s no need to exin, and if you really want to exin, go die and exin to Lucia." Davis was so scared that his legs went weak, "Justin, you want to kill me?" "I won''t do anything criminal, but an eye for an eye is always possible." Justin kicked Davis out. Davis mortgaged all his assets and was left homeless, so he had to rent a house. The family of three was crammed into an old dormitory building of 60 square meters, and he wasined about by Polly and Esther every day. His temper was getting more and more violent day by day, he even beat his wife and daughter! Esther couldn''t stand such suffering, and went to find Justin without her parents'' knowledge. As she reached Justin vi, she jumped into Justin''s arms, crying, "Justin, it''s so cold today, my feet are cold and numb. Please let me stay at your house, I don''t want to go back to that house." Justin lowered his head. Esther and Lucia looked much alike, except that Lucia had a small mole at the top of her eyebrow. Lucia, who came to his house at the age of thirteen, also looked at him in such a pitiful way, saying that it was cold, saying that she didn''t want to go home, saying that she wanted to stay in his house for one night ...... It was October back then, and his face was expressionless, even his words were cold, but he agreed. Chapter 22 What Can You Do Chapter 22 What Can You Do Esther stayed at Justin''s house, but to her dismay, she was asked to wear the same clothes as Lucia! Lucia was dead, making her wear a dead man''s style clothes would give her nightmares! She tried to plead him, but it did not work. Justin squeezed her jaw, "Either wear it or get out, your life may be more miserable than you stayed before in that sixty-square-meters house. Tomorrow, I will take you to the hospital ......" Justin''s aura was so appalling that Esther dropped her tears in panic, "What are you going to do?" In the following day, they came to a stic surgery hospital. Justin took out Lucia''s picture and showed it to the top stic surgeon, "Follow this look, every detail has to be the same!" Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. Esther originally sat in a chair. Hearing that, she felt she met a devil, and she was so scared that she was to flee outside, but Justin closed the door and locked it! The doctor stood up as if nothing had happened and left through the back door of the break room, for Justin was the owner of this stic surgery hospital now. The boss''s personal business was something the employees could only pretend they didn''t see it. With his hands against the door, Justin blocked Esther¡¯s way. The light in his eyes was shady and horrible, and Esther didn''t even know since when Justin had changed into another person. "Justin!" Justin chucked, ¡°Do you think I will spare you for you did harm to Lucia?¡± Esther felt that the door panel behind was like a wall of ice, freezing her whole body, "Why?" "Because you look like Lucia, if you don''t even have that use anymore, do you think you have a reason to live anymore?" Esther stiffened as he leaned against the doorway, "Why! You love me!" "I never love you. Lucia met me first and had always been by my side, but she was stirring and had good rtionship with anyone. I simply could not be sure if she liked me, and when you confessed your love to me, I felt you looked like her ...... but Esther, you confessed your love to me because you read Lucia''s diary. You just wanted to take away everything that belonged to her, including the family fortune, her father, or the person she liked!" Esther''s tears couldn''t stop flowing out, and she didn''t know why she was lost. She tried to steal a man from Lucia, but she ended up falling in love with him in the process of doing so. Looking at the man who had once been so obedient to her and now had a repulsive face, she burst into tears, sad and desperate. Justin rubbed his brow and shouted impatiently! "No crying! Lucia never used to cry in front of me even if she was aggrieved! If you don''t, I will kill you!" Esther was so scared that she covered her mouth and didn''t dare to make a sound at all! When Owen learned of what Justin had done, he only thought that Justin was either crazy or sick. Owen went to find Justin and looked at the woman eating with Justin in surprise, "Lucia?" Wasn''t she dead? He even participated in the cremation, who was this woman if not Lucia? Justin poured Esther a bowl of soup, his voice gentle, "Say hello to Owen." Chapter 23 Only Love Her Chapter 23 Only Love Her Esther tried to smile, but she failed, and could only timidly and awkwardly raised the corners of her mouth, "Hello, Owen." Justin pped the chopsticks in his hand heavily on the dining table, furious, if not for this face he couldn''t touch, he would have p her in the face! "You are useless! Lucia never greeted people like this, can you be polite? Does Owen owe you money or something!" Esther huddled her shoulders, not daring to cry out, when she heard Justin shout "Get out!" She immediately ran upstairs! Owen enlightened! He thought for a long time before looking at Justin, "Justin, let''s go out for a stroll, don''t stay in J City. Don''t you want to take Lucia out to see the big world?" In fact, Owen felt that Justin was sick, but as a friend, he couldn''t say it outright, so he could only find other ways to distract him. Justin leaned back and rubbed the corner of his forehead, "I think I can get Lucia back." Owen pulled the chair at the dining table and sat down, "Justin! Esther is always Esther, even if they are sisters, even if they have simr personalities, you can¡¯t turn Esther into Lucia." Justin''s eyes were firm, "I can! I''ve developed a lot of lessons to train Esther, and she must learn them! She can definitely turn into Lucia if she is earnest." Owen''s scalp tightened, for Justin was too scary, he was like mad "Justin! You must see a psychiatrist!" "I''m not sick, I just ...... miss her." He said in a soft voice, almost inaudible, and if that voice had been amplified, it must have carried a trill. Owen looked away, he could feel Justin¡¯s heartache, "Justin, learn to let go." Justin shook his head, "I owe her, I can''t let go." Owen really wanted to beat Justin up and wake him up! "What are you going to do to pay her back? Do you want to continue to drive yourself to death like this? Justin, you don¡¯t look like the man Lucia loved. Will she really be satisfied to see you being like this?" Justin sat upright after listening to Owen, picked up his chopsticks again and resumed his domineering look, "No! I am still the man who Lucia has loved, I am still the man who she felt excellent. I don''t owe her much, I''ll love her for 11 years from this year, love her like she did. I used to be the best at everything in her eyes, even if I made a mistake, it must be someone else''s fault. I was always shine in her eyes, so I will love her like that for 11 years ...... then, I will start my life over ......" Owen never felt that Justin loved Lucia until after Lucia left and he vaguely felt the change in Justin. He felt that it was not love without a st, but the sudden stripping away of a nd but deep emotion could be painful. Still hoping to pull Justin out of his grief, Owen drew up travel ns for Justin, so that he took Lucia''s ashes to travel around the world, which was better than trying to make Esther into Lucia in J City. But Justin was obsessive and morbid on the matter of replicating Esther as Lucia, no one could stop him. He even forbade Esther to go out but asked her to practice the tone and manner of Lucia''s speech at home every day. If Esther had one action unlike Lucia, it would provoke Justin to burst into anger, and Esther was so scared that she could not be in peace..Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. J City was covered with snow in J City, Justin''s heart was frozen to death, it was so numb that it couldn''t beat ...... Chapter 24 Taking Her Into Arms Chapter 24 Taking Her Into Arms A yearter, Esther put on Lucia''s favorite T-shirt and denim shorts, running out after Justin, "Justin, wait for me!" Justin stood by the iron gate outside the garden, watching Esther run over, his eyes slightly moist. Waving towards Esther, he said in a cold voice, "Hurry up, if you move slower, you will be sent back." Esther knew that Justin was not conversing with her, but with Lucia who was once a teenager. She had suffered on this before, so she ran over Justin, and smiled innocently, "I''m so fast! So I don¡¯t have to go Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. back!" Justin looked at Esther for several seconds, in a daze. That was it, Lucia used to rush to him and gave a big smile. It was him who had shaded her from the sun and turned her into a different personality. Suddenly, Esther was pulled into Justin''s arms, his face buried into the nook of Esther''s neck, his tone trembling lightly, "Lucia, I know you will definitelye back!" Esther gritted her teeth but endured that Justin treated her as Lucia. She didn''t dare to resist and did not want to push away this man. Luckily Lucia was dead, if she was still alive, she wouldn''t even have a chance to be a double. She just hoped that she could be a double forever. It had snowed in November in J City. While A City in the south was still hot. In this strange city, Justin¡¯s gaze fell on the woman with short hair, holding a little beautiful girl in her arms. The woman lookedpetent, but looked gentle, as she locked her eyes on the little girl in her arms. The girl pointed to the trees, to the sky, to the passing cars with curiosity, and the woman answered her questions one by one patiently. Her smile was also gentle. It was pity that she did not have that little mole at the top of her eyebrow, though she looked alike Lucia. It was a pity that her character was nothing like Lucia. Lucia''s smile was warm and bright when she was a teenager, andter she became cold and arrogant as she hid her low self-esteem, not gentle as this woman. There were so many simr people in this world. But none of them were Lucia by any chance. As Owen said, Esther, no matter how much she resembled, no matter how much training she had, could never turn into Lucia. The emotions that welled up and burst out of his heart were pathos, and he could not find an identical Lucia in all his life. Looking at the woman holding her daughter, Justin''s eyes were sore. That child had to be held, and looked so small. He had no idea of the age of the children, only that some were tall and some were short, maybe she was a year old, maybe two. As Justin was to turn around, he saw a man running towards the woman, holding a pink ice cream in his hand, handing it to the little girl in the woman''s arms with a smile, and then affectionately stretched his face over to seek for a sweet kiss from that girl. Chapter 25 A Little Girl Chapter 25 A Little Girl Justin was like struck by lightning, that man was Victor! That girl was big now! And the woman next to him looked so much like Lucia! Only she had no mole at the top of her eyebrow. Breathing chaotically, his body trembling, Justin ran to them! He must ask for rification! He could not shout, could not alert them, or they would run away! He personally transported Lucia''s remains back and burned it himself, and secretly did a paternity match between Lucia and Davis in order to determine that was Lucia¡¯s body! That was exactly Lucia! Did Victor find a woman who resembled Lucia, because he also loved her? But what about that little girl? If he found a woman after Lucia''s death, his child was a few months old at most, but this little girl was about three year old. Justin''s mind was in turmoil, and he ran over to them quickly. But he expected wrong, the family spotted him, but they didn''t run away. The man was cold, the woman was surprised, and the child looked at him with a smile. "Victor!" Justin stopped in front of the three and spoke first to call out to Victor to hide his panic. Victor didn''t deny it, "Yes, it¡¯s me, but she''s not the one you''re looking for, and you won''t take her away from me, will you?" Victor was calm and peaceful, his words stopped Justin from being domineering and irrational. Justin found it unlikely, if this person was Lucia, how to exin her remains and the DNA test? If it was C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Lucia, Victor would have hidden her far away and wouldn''t have let him have the chance to meet her. After all, they were in their country! Watching that family of three go away, Justin felt his heartbeat fast. Even if he looked at Esther every day, his heart was like dead. Just then, the woman who felt so unlike Lucia brought his heart to life. To the end, he hadn''t heard the woman say a word. Was she afraid that he heard her voice? With this thought, Justin once again rushed forward, followed by his bodyguard and secretary. Victor tightened his grip on the woman''s shoulders and walked slowly, pretending to be calm, but Justin rushed over and snatched the child from the woman''s arms! The woman screamed in terror at that! "Ahhhh! Give me back my daughter!" Justin stood still, forgetting that the girl in his arms had been scared to tears, had forgotten that he was standing in a crowded street doing a hooligan act. When he heard the woman''s shout, his tears flowed down. "Lucia ......" he uttered, he did not hear the child''s cries and did not feel the pain as Victor punched at his face. But the woman''s shout was like a sharp iron cone, poking him in the heart. It hurt so much he couldn''t even breathe. No matter how much he trained Esther, Esther''s voice never resembled Lucia¡¯s, and he hadn''t ever found the exact same voice, but at this moment, he had found it. Soon, Victor''s bodyguards who were following from afar rushed over. The little girl was snatched from Justin''s hands, and as he watched Lucia flee with the child and Victor, he tried to chase after them like crazy, but in A City, he didn''t bring so many bodyguards with him. The night was quiet, Justin looked at the thick stack of information in his hands. The girl was one and a half years old, Lucia had left from J City almost three years ago, so Victor must be the father. But he didn''t care, he just wanted Lucia. Chapter 26 An Angel Chapter 26 An Angel Tide Vi in A City. The little girl was already asleep in her room, and in Lucia''s room, Victor hugged her, his palm pressing against her back, soothing her, "Lucia, I''m here I''m here! Eva is here too!" His back was against the wall, letting the woman''s hard head hit him hard, holding back the pain she gave. Lucia was pregnant with twin babies more than two years ago, in that miscarriage, one of them was taken out, Lucia cried and begged him back then, "Victor, I have body-check after the marriage and found my chromosomes have problems, and the doctor said it''s hard for me to get pregnant, so please help me keep the baby!" He certainly wasn''t willing to risk her, "You will get yourself killed." "It''s okay, it''s okay, with advanced medical technology, you must be able to help me. I, I have a house, although it''s my mother''s, I can''t sell it, if I can give her a grandson, she won''t me me. I''ll give you that house as a reward, Victor, please!" Victor was a doctor with connection in this circle. He immediately contacted the best doctors in the world to keep the child that should have been removed. The miscarriage in the eyes of outsiders took two days and one night, but it was a fetal preservation operation that Lucia risked her life. Everything could go on well, but Esther stimted Lucia into depression, and Lucia''s guilt and self- me, resentment and despair kept alternating, which was not conducive to keeping the baby. This was clear to Lucia when she was sober. So she begged him to take her out of J City. The pregnancy was not easy, and when she was sober, she was warm as a bright March sun as she had antenatal training, but as she was not sober, she was frantically self-harming, kneeling on her knees and asking her child to forgive her for failing to keep it alive. Victor used all his energy to heal Lucia''s mental trauma, not daring to leave her alone, and every time she wanted to hurt herself, he held her, using himself as an object for her to vent, and if it did not work, he used sedatives. Even the alumni working in the New Zend hospital advised him that he must send Lucia to a mental hospital, but he refused, thinking it was bad for a pregnant woman to live there. In those few months, Victor lost much weight, for he could not have a single night of sound sleep. Finally, the child was born, Victor knew that Lucia was cured at that moment. Although she was in tears, her gaze was gentle. She looked at the child every day, waiting for her to open her eyes, and all her energy was in the child. A child cured her ...... It was an angel sent to her by God. But today, when she saw Justin and Justin snatched Eva, it drove her crazy again. Victor hugged Lucia tightly, "Lucia, don''t make a scene, Eva is asleep, you will wake her up. Listen, listen to the sound of her breathing!" Lucia became quiet gradually and tried to listen to the breathing, but she heard nothing. Victor helped her to stand up, "I''ll take you to see Eva, go see her, she probably misses you and she is dreaming of you!" Lucia was led by Victor into Eva''s room. She held the pink cot, reached out and touched Eva''s dark hair, her eyshes were so long and shiny, her pink mouth was closed, just like the way she saw every Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. day, "Eva is still there, she has not snatched by the bad guys, she is still here ...... " Chapter 27 I Owe You Chapter 27 I Owe You Victor got a quilt and ced it on the floor, "Lucia, we''ll sleep in Eva''s room tonight, so that we can protect her, and she can see us tomorrow morning. She''ll be very happy, don''t you think so?" "Lucia, I can''t live without you and Eva, you''ve be part of my life." Listening to Victor''s murmurs, Lucia finally fell asleep, shrinking into Victor''s arms, bing more and more at ease. Victor knew that he and Justin would confront one day, but he did not expect it woulde so quickly. He did not want to return to the country, but Eva, due to premature birth, had congenital development deficiencies, so she could not walk though she was almost two years old. Besides she was allergic in foreign countries, and could only live in domestic A City. He wanted to take Lucia away, but if Eva had a problem, Lucia''s illness would only worsen. If a storm wasing, no one could not stop it. After Lucia woke up, she did not dare to leave Eva again, and no longer went out of the door. As long as she held Eva in her arms, she was at ease. Justin knew he couldn''t rush, he had only wanted to force her to speak when he took Lucia''s child that day, but he had clearly felt her breakdown, where her fear was at its peak. The child was important to Lucia, and if he wanted Lucia to go with him, he had to ept this child. But now, Victor refused to let them go. Justin spoke to Victor on the phone at the hotel, "You want the family battle happen again?" Victor in a white coat held the phone in the hospital office, "Things have change, my family can confront you, since you want that, I can fight with you. No matter what, I won''t let their lives be worse." Victor had confidence, ever since something like that happened a year ago, he knew the storm would happened, their lives would not be miserable. Family breakups would never happen. Justin snorted, "So you will burn your boat." "Blue hase out of your shadow and is living happily with me, and it''s you who burns the boat." Three dayster, the money Victor bought for the trust fund was used of moneyundering, and all security was no longer guaranteed, and all the battles were once again put on the table. At night, Victor and Lucia both slept on the foam pad in the child''s room. Lucia listened to the child''s even breathing. It was a normal day, her arm rested on her eyes, "Victor, I don''t want to see Justin again, I don''t want to have any more involvement with him, I don''t want to get involved in all that messy life, I just want Eva." Victor''s heart tightened. Lucia never mentioned Justin, so he thought she have forgotten him, but she said she only wanted Eva. Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. "Lucia, don''t think too much, I''ll let you live the life you want." Lucia had long treated Victor as a very important person, without Victor, she couldn''t live, Eva couldn''t live, "Thank you, Victor, thank you for being so good to me and so good to Eva. Eva and I will be grateful to you all our lives, our lives were saved by you ...... I owe you, I can''t even repay it." Chapter 28 Every Word Hurts Chapter 28 Every Word Hurts "I don''t want you to pay me back, I just want you around. We''re going to have a good life together, Lucia, you promised me that you would give me a chance. I can''t live without you, or I''ll go crazy, I''ll wait for you until you''re willing to ept me, like I said, I won''t marry anyone other than you in this life." "Ok ......" Lucia sobbed, feeling sorry for Victor. It was a sunny day, Eva crawled on the ground. She was born with a congenital development deficiency, although hernguage development was normal, she could not walk and could not even stand steadily, so Lucia could only let her practice crawling. Eva didn''t understand the difference between herself and a child at her age, crawling, she giggled loudly. At that moment, Lucia''s cell phone rang, she picked it up and answered in a soft voice, "Victor, are you Eva crawled over towards her mother, calling out excitedly, "Daddy! Daddy!" Justin pinched his brow as he listened to the voiceing from the phone. His throat did not feel well, so the family''s happiness reflected his destion. "It''s me." Justin''s voice was deep and cool. He had many opening words, but in this moment, ht could only utter two words. The woman on the other end of the phone suddenly was silent, and Justin immediately said, "Let''s talk about Blue Forest Court." Justin knew that he was despicable, but what could he do? Knowing that she would break down, he no longer dared to ckmail her with the child, and thought she would care about Blue Forest Court. "Blue Forest Court? Do you want to sell it, or do you want to tear it down?" Lucia''s voice was colder than Justin''s, and Justin thought he heard wrong, but that voice and that tone Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. belonged to no one but Lucia. When she asked him rhetorically, he answered, "Didn''t you always want to keep it?" "Yes, I want to keep it, but now since you want to sell or tear it down, I will be ok with it, happy?" Justin held the phone and sat straight up on the sofa, pain and confusion appeared in his eyes, "Lucia ...... I don''t ......" "I will not go to that city again, if you want to demolish it or sell it, go ahead." Lucia hung up the phone, and tears rolled out in a moment. She forced her to be calm and pretended that she did not care, so that he would give up, but she hurt. How could she be willing to sell her mother¡¯s house? Justin had never been in such a mess, in front of Lucia''s determination, he was routed, he couldn''t be ruthless, and didn''t dare to really sell or demolish the house. Because he knew that would cut off all his paths. She would bepletely at war with him. Half an hourter, he dialed Lucia''s phone again, this time, he was calmer than before and articte, "You may not care about the house, I will not do anything about it, but I will kill Victor." Lucia replied angrily, "Justin Sutton! You are not allowed to do anything to Victor! Otherwise, I won''t let you go!" Justin was jealous to hear that. The woman he had been missing crazily was to go against for a man instead of her mother. Chapter 29 The Crazy Man Chapter 29 The Crazy Man Justinughed bitterly, ''''When did you let me go? I haven''t had a night of sound sleep, do you think I can be spared by you if I don''t do anything to Victor? I thought you were dead, I dreamt of you every night, dreamt of youing back, dreamt of you leaving, dreamt of you marrying someone else and having children regardless of my pain, dreamt of you living but suddenly dying in my arms. I woke up and could not fall asleep anymore, you say you won''t let me go, fine,e back to me, and you can do whatever you want." "I won''t go back to you, I don¡¯t love you anymore." "But I love you." "One-sided love won¡¯t work." "I don''t care if you love me or not." Lucia also said the same words before, saying that she didn''t care if he loved her or not. It turned out that the one who gave love was really stupid. "Justin!" Justin took a big breath, "Lucia, let me tell you, Victor did buy a trust fund for his family, and he could have made his family secure, but he did one thing wrong, that is, to steal a woman from me. The money he bought the trust fund has been rted to moneyundering, all the guarantee may not work, you tell me, what can he do to protect his family? Are you sure you want to cause his family to be implicated by you?" Lucia closed her eyes, her sanity fell apart, "Let Victor and his family go, let me go, I don''t owe you anything. I just loved you brainlessly, I suffered great pain and I''ve had enough of that ...... Justin, just leave me alone." "Lucia, I can''t, unless I die." Justin hung up as well as he heard the busy toneing from the other end of the phone. Lucia hugged Eva and slept on the foam pad. Victor had not yete home, she knew how hard it was for him now. She owed Victor too much that she could not drag him down any more. Until 2:00 a.m. Victor came home, only to find Lucia and Eva had gone. He found every corner of the house, till he sat on the floor, reading the letter that had ced on the pillow. At that, his heart froze into ice. She had still gone, he knew he could not have her around, but he loved her. Since childhood others had said that Lucia was his child bride, but his child bride had fancy on Justin. At that time, he was crazy with jealousy, but on the surface, he always smiled, not even daring to say that he liked her, but smoothing her. But he really wanted to be with her. He thought it would be better when they grew up, when when they really grew up, she was farther away from him. How ridiculous that they both loved the one they could not be with. It hurt so much, but they refused to give up. Lucia didn''t dare to leave A City, she went to the bus station and wanted to settle down in a secondary city not far from A City, because she was afraid that Eva was allergic if she was too far away from A City. As she had just gotten out of the taxi with the baby in her arms, she was surrounded by several burly men in ck.Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. Owen looked at Lucia, feeling incredible, but still pretended to be calm, raising the corners of his mouth, "Lucia, you''d better get in the car with us, the child is still small, she might be scared, and now Justin is like a crazy person. I''m worried that the child would be frightened as she has never seen someone as crazy as him." Chapter 30 No More Making Her Unhappy Chapter 30 No More Making Her Unhappy Owen had heard Justin say that Lucia cared about her child, so he was instructed not to move the child, not even touching it, but Owen wanted toplete his task, not touching her was fine, he had to threaten Lucia. Lucia hugged Eva tightly, her eyes were wary as she took a step back, "Owen, we''ve known each other! Don''t you dare touch my child!" Owen was finally sure that the person in front of him was really Lucia. She had changed too much and she felt a different person. Would Justin love her? If yes, what was the point of him training Esther to be what Lucia used to be? Owen sighed, "Lucia, we kind of grew up together, I wish you well than so many friends, really, but Justin has a miserable life in the past one year, even I can''t help but feel sorry for him." Seeing that Lucia did not react, Owen deliberately raised his hand to touch the child, "Lucia, if you don''t Lucia hugged Eva more tightly, she knew that she couldn''t fight, if these people robbed her child, even if the police came, the child would be frightened, so she could only get into the car with Owen, "I''m not leaving A City." Owen said only one word, "Ok." Then he drove to the hotel where Justin was staying, he just needed to hand Lucia over to Justin, and his mission would be finished. In the hotel, Justin opened the door to his room and took Lucia''s luggage from the bodyguard. He said nothing but turned around to boil water. There were too many words to say, and only when the water was boiling did he ask, "Does Eva want to drink milk powder? I''ve boiled water."C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org Lucia wanted to escape, but after pulling open the door, she saw bodyguards outside, and she knew she couldn''t leave. At this point, she was surprised that Justin knew her child''s name, but it was only for a moment, she did not answer him, holding Eva, but fetched milk powder from her suitcase. Justin went over to help her open her suitcase, of which password was needed. He entered his birthday, "click", the lock opened. The click made him stare at the lock in a daze, his heart beating hard and hurting unexpectedly. He didn''t look up. His fingers gripping the zipper as he unzipped it, his breathing growing ragged, he held back from letting himself sigh. At that time she confessed her love to him, "Justin, I like you, I know you like girls with long hair, so I grow long hair. I will also learn to wear high heels, Justin, such a girlfriend will make you at ease. All my passwords are your birthday, you do not have to worry about me cheating on you and I have not secrets in front of you." She was neen then, and her smile was bright and warm, butter, he told her, "I''m with Esther." She still was wearing a smile, but the flowers that had bloomed in her eyes withered and faded in an instant, and those flowers never opened in her eyes again after they were gone. After all this time, she was so detached from him, yet she still used his birthday as a password. Maybe somethings had been proud that she had to be used to it. Holding Eva in her arms, Lucia fed her with milk, told her a story and put her into sleep, while Justin didn''t say anything, but stand aside silently. It wasn''t that he didn''t want to say a word, but he didn''t know which statement was right and which was wrong. He was afraid that he would stimte her, he did not want to force her back to J City, and he did not want her to cry out loudly like she did that day in the street. He was already sorry for her, so he could not make her unhappy again. Chapter 31 Killing Her Family Chapter 31 Killing Her Family Victor learned that Justin had already taken Lucia back to J City. He couldn''t get through to either of them. On this day, Justin came to Victor in Tide Vi. He ced the news of the sessive setbacks of Victor¡¯spany in front of Victor, as well as the financial statement of the Sutton Group''s uing acquisition. All this reminded Victor that Justin could still win him, if he wanted to. Looking at these papers, Victor reached out to it, but his hand was shaking, so he withdrew immediately to hide his timidity, gritting teeth, and his eyes had already grown scarlet! Justin sat down opposite Victor, calm and cool, "You know I didn''t intend to get divorce, but you didn''t tell Lucia about it, but deliberately you made her think that I disliked her inability to have children and wanted to divorce her, saying that I never loved her and treated her badly, so she misunderstood that I wanted a divorce, didn''t you?" Victor raised his head and looked at Justin with a fierce gaze, "You''re talking nonsense!" Justin yed with the lighter in his hand, snorted, "I am not, and you know it well. You are capable, you know where the divorce paperes from. I had arranged for someone to take care of Lucia before I went aboard, but you came and rece that person, so Lucia had no idea about my arrangement. As soon as I left the country, the divorce was done. Dare you say you are not part of the reason?" Victor''s gaze dodged, not daring to look at Justin for a long time, "Your family has been looking down on Lucia!" "Haha!" Justinughed out loud, capped the lighted with a p, the veins in the corners of his forehead jumping up as he gritted his teeth, "Is that so? Victor Hamilton, aren''t you the main culprit for what Lucia has been suffering all these years? Without your seamlessyout, the dean would not even know about a miscarriage procedure? If it were not you, how my family had the same report from the hospital as Esther gave them? Could Esther easily get the embryo that Lucia aborted? Didn''t you pretend you didn''t know it? Didn''t you even reveal it on purpose? And who was it that made Esther learn that Lucia woke up and took the embryo to irritate her? So coincidentally, as Lucia had just jumped off the bed, you rushed in? You were indeed afraid that Esther would hurt Lucia, but didn''t you feel guilty? You let her watch someone else take her baby''s Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. embryo to irritate her just to get her to close to you! And then misled her into thinking that she''d be fine if she just left J City, didn''t you?" Victor''s feet began to shake, he never dared to face these issues. Actually he regretted it, especially when Lucia had self-harmed over the years, he even wanted to hypnotize himself that he had never done those things. Justin stood up, lit a cigarette, gasping, "That dead woman in New Zend looked so simr to Lucia, and she even could match Davis''s DNA. Victor, in order to make me give up, in order to make Lucia be with you, you used your medical knowledge and killed Lucia''s twin sister, didn¡¯t you?" Victor''s pupils dted, he had been horrified! "You! You are talking bullshit!" Chapter 32 Cutting Down the Root Chapter 32 Cutting Down the Root Justin''s cold smile at this point was somewhat cruel, "I am taking bullshit? Polly gave her twin sister away, but you found her. Lucia was sad to lose her mother, but instead of sending her sister back, you used her sister''s death to cover up her life. If she knows it, do you think she would not hate you? That was her sister!" Victor lowered his head, pulling his hair hard. He never thought Justin had already found out the truth, and he did not want to listen further. Justin exhaled, "Lucia''s sister could have given birth safely, but you killed her, won''t you have nightmares?" Victor clutched his head and shook it desperately, "Stop! Don''t say it again!" Justin added, "Victor, if the police hadn''t found you, I wouldn''t have said a word for Lucia''s sake, but my bottom line can''t be stepped on by you again and again. If Lucia knew that you arranged so many plots and made her live so painfully these years, even lose her sister, don¡¯t you think she would hate you to death? If she''s with me, she can raise Eva at ease, but she remembers your goodness, never knowing that you have killed her family, isn¡¯t it good?" "You''re that kind? Will you let her remember my goodness?" Victorughed contemptuously. He didn''t want to give up Lucia, after so many years, she was already his heart, if it wasn''t for her, how could he be so paranoid and do so many wrong things? Justin tilted his head and exhaled a mouthful of smoke, threw the cigarette to the ground and crushed it hard by the leather shoe. He was enduring and dueling with himself, all the unbearable past turned into a machete that cut at his own self who could not ept the reality, and finally the Justin who could ept everything now survived, although scars all over. Justin was silent for a long time. He really didn''t want to be kind, but he couldn''t forget how he felt when he went through her belongings, the heartache of being viciously abused was really hard to bear. Justin gave a faint smile, "You think I would be like you? Use psychotherapy hypnosis to viciously scandalize me from her subconscious, to make her hate me and avoid me? Did you do all this just to make her feel better, instead of cutting off all possible paths for her toe back to me? I wouldn''t do that. Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. Because, I read her medical records, and I know she has intermittent mental disorders and can''t be stimted, and I shouldn''t have snatched Eva from her. Victor, I won¡¯t do anything to you because of her, I can tolerate that she remembers your goodness, I can treat your child well as I own child, I can even tolerate that she thinks you are 10,000 times better than me, but this is already the limit of my patience! If you are insatiable, I''ll ......" Justin paused before he said word by word, "Cut down the root!" Justin said ruthlessly with determination, so Victor did not know what he would do. Victor didn''t dare to take risk. He loved Lucia, but he had his family, and he had no idea what Justin was capable of. Chapter 33 Dont Be Insatiable Chapter 33 Don''t Be Insatiable From the conversation, Victor was aware that Lucia had not told Justin that Eva was his daughter, but Lucia must have her reason for keeping it a secret. That was why Justin couldn''t see that Eva was abnormal that she could not walk though she was close to two years old. Seeing Justin go out from his house, Victor stood up and smashed the chair against the desk, belongings on it falling to the floor. He threw back his head and shouted, his voice prating the vi with indignation and grief! Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. He didn''t want to give up, but he also didn''t dare to imagine how much Lucia would hate him if she knew what he had done. It might cause secondary damage to her. If Justin really loved Lucia, he might really hide it from her for the rest of his life. Seeing that Justin and his bodyguards were about to walk to the door, Victor rushed out and shouted, "Justin!" Justin paused and turned around, his eyebrows clear and cold, disgust buried deep in his dark eyes, "What?" "Don''t take them out of A City." "Naturally they''re going back to J City with me." "I don''t want you to take them out of A City." Victor''s eyes grew red as he walked over. Justin was motionless, but when Victor approached, he turned around decisively, "I said, don''t be insatiable." Victor once again shouted out to Justin! "Eva is Lucia''s life, Eva can''t leave A City, or she will be allergic. Otherwise, we wouldn''t havee back home." Justin didn''t believe Victor''s words, thinking he was scheming in order to be with Lucia, "I can understand that you want to keep your daughter in the city you''re in, but that''s impossible!" Victor was afraid that Justin would really be bent on it, because he would do it, "If you know that Lucia will feel so guilty that she would mutte herself when she saw Eva''s body covers in blisters, will you still do that? I do hate you, and I wish you would never take her away from me, but I don''t want Lucia to get hurt anymore." Justin discerned the truth in Victor''s words, he didn''t dare to take a risk. Back at the hotel, Justin stoked Eva''s fleshy feet and asked her tentatively, "Eva, I take you to J City to y, ok?" At first, Eva was reluctant to call Justin daddy, but she would get used to it as time went by. Eva blinked her big eyes, "What about Mommy?" "Mommy will be with us." Lucia, who was in the bathroom washing bottles, rushed out in panic, "No! Eva can''t go to J City! Eva can only stay in A City! It will kill her if she leaves A City!" Justin looked at Lucia. Holding the bottle and brush in her hand, she shed tears, so she cried, for the sake of Eva ...... The corners of Justin''s mouth curved up, "I just joked with Eva. I have a project here and I will stay here for a long time, so I will buy a house in A City, so that you and Eva can stay there. The air in the hotel room is not good for her." As Lucia took a breath of relief, Justin felt relieved too, luckily, Lucia had not confronted him because he had offered to leave. Chapter 34 Are you crazy? Chapter 34 Are you crazy? After the house was bought, in order to make Eva happy, to please Lucia, Justin built a slide for Eva to Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. y in the garden outside the vi, as well as a swing and Disney''s anime characters. But no matter what he did, Lucia''s indifference and detachment towards him made him feel overwhelmed. They both said nothing about what happened back then. Lucia felt it unbearable while Justin felt ashamed about Lucia¡¯s love for him. Lucia wanted to leave, because when she was with Justin, the pain of memory urred to her heart at midnight. But Justin had arranged bodyguards around her, which made her difficult to leave. And she couldn''t go anywhere but stay in A City. For many times Justin wanted to have Lucia in his arms, but the coldness and contempt in her eyes made his heart chill and he knew he couldn''t get close to her. Victor was suddenly ill, and when Lucia headed out with Eva to visit Victor, Justin stopped her. "Victor has nothing to do with you!" "He is my husband!" Lucia and Victor were nominally registered as husband and wife, she was like a family to him, how could she not care about him when he was sick? But Justin knew well about Victor''s tricks, when Lucia saw that Victor was ill, Lucia would not be at ease. "You want to go see him? Want to live with him?" "Yes!" Lucia blurted out without hesitation. Justin raised his fist and knocked at his temple, feeling the throbbing veins in his temple about to burst. "Ok, but you have to promise me one thing." "What?" "Leave Eva to me." "Are you crazy?" Eva was so important to Lucia, how would she agree! Justin had expected that, he gave a smile, "Since you don¡¯t agree, give birth a child for me. And then you can go anywhere, I swear that I will never go back to you as long as I have the child you gave me." Lucia wanted to curse him. She had only recently realized that Justin was a mad man. He had actually moved the Sutton Group''s branch in the south directly to A City in order to let his forces settle in A City. A City was just a small city, how could a big conglomerate branch like the Sutton Group choose this city? The government had given the green light to almost all the resources of A City to bring down the roots of apany like the Sutton Group to generate tax revenue. A City was now overwhelmed by Justin.. Lucia couldn''t fight this man, if she wanted to live in A City in peace, she could only agree, "Fine! But you never keep your word, swear on your grandfather!" Justin raised his hand and swore, "If I, Justin Sutton, have a child with you Lucia Barrett and still don''t let you go, my grandfather won''t live long!" Lucia knew that the person Justin respected the most was Leonard, so after he swore, she was at peace. All she wanted was that if she could conceive a child with Justin through artificial insemination, she would be relieved in her life. She was too tired to be with this man, it was best to stay away from him, "Ok! I promise you!" Chapter 35 Weighing the Pros and Cons Chapter 35 Weighing the Pros and Cons Justin thought he would be happy if Lucia agreed, but no. Lucia couldn''t let go of the child she had with Victor, but she was able to give up the child she had with himself, well, she really hated him. This day at noon, while Lucia was taking a nap, Justin carried Eva to the swimming pool. Justin floated in the water, put the child on his chest, Eva happily patted the water ssh, giggling. Her short legs kept stirring in the water. Justin looked at the child''s long eyshes and mouth and found that she looked like Lucia when she was a child. He was supposed to have a child with Lucia, only Lucia then seemed more important than the child. "Eva, say daddy." "Daddy." Eva giggled as Justin held her armpits, leaving her floating in the water and stirring her legs in it. Justin looked at Eva, "I teach you to dive, ok?" Eva nodded. "Eva, breathe in like me!" Justin carried the child and dived into the water in one go. As she suddenly sank into the water, Eva was extremely scared and opened her mouth in fear, the water produced a string of bubbles! Lucia went to the pool after she woke up and when she saw this scene, she was so scared that she jumped into the pool and swan in the direction of Justin. Eva choked and coughed violently as she reemerged from the water, her cries miserable and shrill. Lucia shouted angrily at Justin, "You want to kill her, don''t you! Don''t you! You''re so cruel! She''s just a Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. child!" She swam to shore with Eva in her arms, running and shouting in fear for the doctor! Justin then knew he had made a mistake, and the little trust he had took effort to build up was all ruined. Lucia did not say a word to Justin for two months and did not even want to be at the same table with Justin for dinner. One day, Eva wanted to paint, Lucia could not find paper and pencil everywhere, but she did not want tomand Justin''s maid, so she went to Justin''s study. When she found out that Justin had a ligation and could no longer have children, her shoulders trembled. The real love and hate that had been hidden in her heart finally broke out, and she plopped down in Justin''s study, crying. Justin stood outside the door but he didn''t dare to knock. He didn''t know how to settle it, would Lucia hate him even more? Because she wanted to stay away from him so badly. Justin quietly turned back to his room, saying there was no need to call him for dinner. At eleven o''clock at night, Lucia walked into Justin''s room, stood at the end of his bed and asked, "Are you asleep?" Justin said no and sat up. After turning on the light, he gazed at Lucia quietly, but he was emotional. Not knowing if today''s event had stimted this woman''s fragile nerves, he dare not exin. "You''re the heir to the Sutton family." Lucia said coldly. "Yes." "Do you know what ligation means?" Lucia clenched her fist, her voice was calm, but her eyes were already sore. "I know." "Since so, why did that?" "I have weighed the pros and cons." He answered with aplomb, as if he had never hesitated and never regretted it. Lucia gritted her teeth and smiled coolly, "Pros and cons? What kind of pros and cons make you do that?" "You won¡¯t want to listen to it and you won¡¯t believe me." It wasn''t that Justin didn''t want to tell Lucia, but he was not used to say sweet words and Lucia had been refusing to listen to him. Chapter 36 It Hurts Chapter 36 It Hurts She was not willing to listen to him, because she did not believe him. She had long been brainwashed by Victor thoroughly, so she only felt Victor was credible. And he, Justin, was just a son of a bitch who wanted to abandon her because he heard she could not have children. If an argument arose from his exnation with her, he was afraid that she would be emotional, so he could only be obedient to her, even if she remained unconvinced. Lucia knew that the pros and cons he was talking about, it was nothing but the fact that she was more important than his child. But if that was the case, why did he divorce her without hesitation when he heard the rumor that she couldn''t bear children? Wasn''t she just a fertility machine for him to give birth to next generation? "Since I don''t believe you, why do you make a fool of yourself?" Pain shed through Justin''s eyes, and he smiled with self-deprecation, "Although you don''t believe me, you can''t go back on your word. As long as you don''t give birth to my child, you can''t leave me, and since I can¡¯t have child the rest of my life, you can only be with me." Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Lucia turned around and walked out. Tears spewed up in her eyes, and as she walked out of the door, tears flew down her cheeks, dripping from her chin, wetting herpel ...... It seemed she was sick again, and her withered heart began to ache anew. She hurt when she thought of his name. She tried hard to forget everything, but it was clear in her mind. She still loved him, even if the hypnotist kept stressing in her consciousness that she hade out of her past emotions and was no longer in love with him, when she woke up, her heart still ached ...... All of Justin''s energy was focused on A City, and the meetings in J City were changed to video conference. When he had to go back to J City, he would return to A City on that day even if it waste. Esther noticed Justin''s change. He had been in A City and had not returned to J City to visit her for half a year. Every day he used to eat with her, so she was able to see him, whether he was in a good mood or not. Whether he used her as a double or not, she was able to feel the tenderness and love in his asional gaze. Even if she knew that he took her as Lucia. Looking at the mole at the top of her eyebrow in the mirror, Esther''s eyes got more and more sinister. She hated this face since she was a child, she hated it so much that she would like to cut it with a knife. If not for Lucia''s mother''s obstruction, she and her mother would have been able to live in the Barrett¡¯s house long ago, instead of hiding outside. She could not attend all the social events as Davis''s daughter, so she had no ess to the upper ss social circle. Lucia and her mother were the most disgusting people in this world! Esther came to A City and found Lucia. She hated Lucia, but only now she was getting calmer and calmer. She was no longer the Esther who took the embryo to unt in front of Lucia brainlessly. She had spent two months secretly observing and learned that Lucia valued her daughter, and she knew that Lucia would definitely have bodyguards following her when she went out. Esther cut her hair short, removed the mole at the top of her eyebrow. After learning from the former Lucia for over a year, her acting skills had long been exceptional, so it was not difficult for her to learn from the current Lucia. Chapter 37 I Hurt Her Chapter 37 I Hurt Her Justin went to work, while Lucia and Eva stayed at home. Esther swaggered near the gate. The security guard was confused. Esther raised her hand impatiently, although she rarely had this kind of emotion, the security guard knew how indulgent Justin was towards Lucia, so he immediately opened the door, "Madam, did you go out through the back door?" Esther nodded and then walked in. Lucia went to see her daughter when she woke up, but Eva was not in the room. Thinking that the nanny had taken her to the garden, she went to the garden, but she still could not find Eva. Lucia made a call to Justin, "Did youe back at noon?" Lucia never called Justin, so when he received Lucia''s call, he was delighted and walked straight out of the conference room where the proceedings were taking ce. With a smile, he said in a maic and warm voice, "You want me to go back?" "You didn''te back?" Hearing the tension in Lucia''s voice, Justin became rm, "What''s happened?" Now Lucia basically believed that Justin would not do any harm to Eva, after thest drowning incident, Justin exined that because Eva''s legs didn''t have much strength, he wanted to take her swimming for some exercise. At that time she saw the sincerity in his eyes, "Lucia, you have to believe me, I won''t have my own child in this life. I taught Eva to call me daddy, because I will really consider her as my daughter, I won''t harm her, she is the only daughter I have in this life. She is so much like you, how can I harm her?" Lucia could not find Eva and she knew she have to rely on Justin. Her voice was trembling, "Eva is missing, I''ve searched the room and the garden, so have the maids. They said I carried Eva out. I was napping at noon, and Eva was napping in her room, I don''t remember I have carried Eva out." Lucia finally couldn''t hold back and cried on the phone. She broke down, and only cowardice and timidity remained, "I don''t know, I forgot it. Justin, I''m sick again, I''m not a good mother, I don''t want to hurt Eva. They said I carried her out with bodyguards, but I don''t remember doing such a thing. I''m sick again, please find her. I''ll never touch her again, I dare not touch her again, I will stay away from her. I Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org. must have hurt her, but I don''t remember it. I don¡¯t remember if I have beaten her when I am not sober, I don''t remember ......" Lucia was sobbing and huffing, getting more and more incoherent. Justin pulled the tie around his neck and exhaled a deep breath, "Lucia, don¡¯t worry, I''ll be right back! Don''t worry!" Just as Justin had just stepped into the elevator, his phone rang again, it was the bodyguard calling, "Boss, Madam took Eva into the bathroom just now, Bill and I waited outside for half an hour but they have note out yet. Should we go in and check?" "That person is not my wife! She''s still at home! If Eva is lost, you will be dead!" Justin hung up the phone and then called the police! Justin got furious and he knew how important Eva was to Lucia. Eva had called him daddy for so long, and she would be his daughter for a life. If she lose, he would be guilty for a lifetime. A City was not big, and it took him ten minutes to go back home. Justin mmed close the car door and went to find Lucia. Chapter 38 A Hard Slap in Her Face Chapter 38 A Hard p in Her Face Lucia was so anxious that she lied down in any ce where Eva could hide, and called out to Eva, "Eva, don''t hide with Mommy, did I beat you? You don''t want to see me anymore? I am sorry, I don¡¯t remember it. From now on you just y with daddy and ignore Mommy, okay? Eva!" Justin was heartbroken seeing that. She really thought she was sick and had hurt Eva, but she didn''t know that the person who really hurt Eva was him, Justin. If he hadn''t lost his mind and given Esther a facelift, it wouldn''t have happened. Justin held Lucia''s shoulders and helped her up from the root of the wall, "Lucia, I''ve already called the police and arranged for my people to look for her. Don''t me yourself, it''s not your fault." Lucia did not remember how tough she had been with Justin, only that she was vulnerable at this time. She covered her face, afraid to face anyone, "What should I do? I''m a nervous wreck, I never Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. remember my mistake. Eva only has me in her heart, she trusts mepletely but I hurt her, she doesn''t want to see me anymore. Have I thought she was a burden to me and tried to throw her away when I was sick? How could I be so cruel?" Lucia murmured, her shoulders kept shaking, and she pped herself hard on her face, cursing herself! Justin held her hand tightly in his arms in panic. He was breathing heavily, afraid she might hurt herself, "Lucia! It''s not your fault, it''s not your fault, you didn''t carry Eva out, it was someone else! It was some other bad guy!" "But the maids and security saw it! They said I was the one who carried Eve out!" Lucia sank deeper into the sin she had created, tilting her head back and mming it hard into Justin''s shoulder, struggling desperately as her emotions grew out of control! Justin never saw hermitting a disease. Seeing her at this moment, he dared not imagine how she once hurt herself and suffered. He controlled her body and shouted, "Get the doctor over here! Hurry!" "You know I''m sick! You know I hurt people! Don''t you! I don''t deserve to live, do I! I even hurt my own daughter! I''m inhuman, aren¡¯t I?" Lucia was like a crazy demon attacking people. Her pain had nowhere to vent, but she wanted to restrain herself, so she raised her wrist and bit down hard on herself. When Justin couldn''t suppress her, he sent his wrist into her teeth! Lucia looked at Justin, biting hard, tears spewed up in her eyes. Justin in front of her eyes was getting blurry, and she listened to him reassure her over and over again, "Lucia, it''s not your fault, you''re not sick, you''re fine, Lucia, Lucia ......" Every word of his was tender. She had tasted fishy-sweet of his blood, which was swallowed into her stomach. The strength of her teeth gradually became less as the sedative infused into her body. Lucia gradually calmed down. Justin picked her up horizontally, and she still fixed her tearful eyes on him, her voice was inaudible, "She has be developmental dy because of premature birth, I am so sorry for her, and how can I beat her? I love her and am afraid of anything hurting her, how can I carry her out and throw her away? I''m not a devil. If I can¡¯t have her back, I don¡¯t want to live anymore." Chapter 39 Heartbroken Chapter 39 Heartbroken Justin felt his heart ache as he heard that. He ran upstairs, panting. As Victor said, Eva was Lucia''s life, if Eva was gone, Lucia would be gone too ...... Justin put down Lucia, covered her with nket and then walked out of the room. He was full of hostility that made people afraid. Following by the bodyguards, Justin coldly said, "If you can''t find Eva, you go to hell!" Esther hid into a ruined warehouse in the suburbs with Eva. Eva kept touching Esther''s face and suddenly gave her a kiss on her cheek, and thenughed out. Esther knew that she sounded different from Lucia, so she kept her mouth shut to keep the child from getting restless. She froze when Eva kissed on her face, and then frowned and pped Eva''s fleshy face in disgust! "Little bastard! How dare you kiss me?" Eva was stunned and thought her mother hit her, so she cried out loud, "Mommy! Mommy!" Esther threw Eva onto a pile of old cloths, "I am not your lowly mother! Don''t cry! Or, I''ll cut off your tongue!" Eva fell on the fabric pile, luckily, it was soft and she was unharmed. She''d always thought that her mother was climbing the window and not talking because they were ying hide and seek, and she''d always thought that her mother had different scent was because she had worn different perfume, but at the moment she heard her mother''s voice changed, she freaked out. Eva couldn''t walk, so she crawled down the pile of fabric as she cried heartbreakingly, trying to crawl to her mother forfort; maybe her mother didn''t mean to hit her, maybe she just let her fall to the ground identally. In the process of crawling towards Esther, she suddenly rolled off the pile of cloth and fell onto the concrete,nding on her forehead with a thud! Usually she had her Mommy to pick her up when she fell, but now her Mommy did note but scold her though her forehead was in great pain. Eva sat on the ground, looking at Esther, aggressively stretching out her hands for a hug, uttering "Mommy, Mommy, give Eva a hug, give Eva a hug." Esther looked at Eva and guessed she should be about three years old, "You still can''t walk at this age, are you a cripple! Little bastard! It must be because your mother did too many hical things to make you a cripple!" Eva looked so much like Lucia, though Justin was not her father, he still hugged her affectionately. Did everyone have to look like Lucia? Esther took out a de and approached Eva''s face, "Little bastard, if I cut your face, you won''t look like your mother." Born prematurely, congenitally underdeveloped and prone to illness, Eva practically grew up with Lucia''s coddling, and Lucia would tell Eva to stay away from all the dangerous things. Like sockets, like smoking water, like knives and anything sharp. Eva ducked her face in fear. She could no longer believe that this was her mother, because her mother Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. wouldn''t scold her, throw her away, ore near her with a de. Chapter 40 Ill Satisfy You Chapter 40 I''ll Satisfy You Eva turned over and tried to escape, but Esther pulled her legs. She struggled on the rough concrete floor trying to crawl away, struggling and crying made her hair wet with sweat. Her little palms pped and rubbed on the ground, scraping out blood, but she was still struggling. "Want to escape? Your bitch mother likes to escape too, she escaped all over the world. I didn''t expect you inherited such bitchy qualities from her." Esther dropped the de in her hand, gritted her teeth, and pped Eva''s ass so hard that Eva couldn''t escape, except for crying out for her mother. Eva''s body was grabbed by Esther and got bruise. Her face was covered with ashes and tears. She could no longer cry in the end, and the sounding out of her throat was hoarse and painful, and all she could do was sit on the floor and look at the window, calling out to "Daddy". She no longer dared to crawl, because she knew that if she did, she would be beaten. Eva was hungry. She looked at Esther pitifully, patting her stomach, "Eva ...... Eva is hungry ......" She spoke in a husky voice, her little shoulders shaking. Estherughed coldly, ''''I want to starve you to death. Haha! If only I could have tortured your mother to Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. death back then, it''s just a pity that I only tortured your grandmother to death ......" Eva did not understand the hatred of adults, she could only cry when she was hungry, and when she was tired of crying, she could only fall to sleep on the cold ground. Eva was shivering in her sleep. Justin checked all the surveince of A City, and the city government used all the police force to help this big tax payer to find his daughter. Esther got into a taxi with Eva. The police immediately found out the contact information of the taxi driver, as well as the location where Esther got out of the taxi. The surveince showed the location where Esther got out of the car. Step by step, the final target was locked in the old factory area that had not been redeveloped. A City''s police and Justin''s people searched it thoroughly. When he opened the factory warehouse of the abandoned garment factory, Justin''s fingers tightened one by one, revealing his white joints. He strode towards Eva, pretending to be m. When Eva saw him, she burst into tears again and cried out, "Daddy!" The child''s voice was hoarse. Her face was red and swollen with finger marks on it in addition to be dirty. Her eyes were longing and bright when she saw him. She cried out to him as Daddy with tears in her eyes, which made his heart ache. As soon as Eva shouted, Esther who was sleeping behind Eva immediately sat up. She immediately climbed up and picked up Eva, waving the de in front of Eva, and then she pointed the de at Justin, bodyguards and police, "Don''t youe over! Or, I''ll kill this little bastard with a single sh!" Justin closed his eyes, he told himself to calm down! Eva must never be harmed in any way again! He exhaled heavily and stood at attention, "Esther! Put down the Eva." Esther strained her neck. She was afraid when she saw Justin, but she wanted Lucia to die. As long as Lucia was dead, no one in this world could rob Justin from her anymore! "No! If you kill Lucia, I''ll let this little bitch go!" Hearing the word "bitch" from Esther¡¯s mouth, Justin had long been furious, but looking at Esther''s shaking de, he could only hold back, "I will satisfy your other requirement!" Chapter 41 I want Her Dead Chapter 41 I want Her Dead "I want Lucia dead!" Esther never expected Lucia to be alive. She thought Lucia was dead, so it was ok for her to be a double, but since Lucia was still alive, she felt she had not finished her task in this life, which would be a pity for her! Eva looked at Justin, stretched out her hands towards him, pouting but not daring to cry loudly, "Daddy, give Eva a hug, give Eva a hurt ...... Eva hurts, Eva is hungry ......" Justin pressed down the ach in his heart, instantly, his eyes grew red. Eva only replied on him now. She had been calling out to her as Daddy for a long time, but he failed toe to her in time when she needed him the most. "Eva, good girl, don''t move, Daddy will take you to eat out." Although Eva was reluctant, she still dropped her hand, hugged her arms and rubbed them with difficulty, pouted her little mouth in aggression and nodded, "I won''t move, I will be good and wait for Daddy." Esther hated Justin''s interaction with Eva. She grabbed Eva''s arm again fiercely, and the de identally cut Eva''s delicate arm, blood sprang out at once, Eva''s cries echoed tragically in the warehouse in an instant! Justin''s scalp tingled! He was filled with murderous anger, but due to the de against Eva''s chest, he suppressed his indignation! "Esther! I''ll kill you if you hurt her again!" Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. Esther went crazy, "You treat Lucia''s child with other man as a treasure! Justin! You coward!" Justin knew that what Esther wanted was to steal everything from Lucia and destroy everything that Lucia had. But Eva was so pitiful that she put all her hope in her eyes and looked at him so steadfastly, even though her little arm was bleeding. Justin took a breath, "Let Eva go, as long as you let her go, I promise you anything you want." "Including killing of Lucia!" "Yes!" "Really?" "Yes!" "I don''t believe you will kill Lucia. You are cheating me, aren¡¯t you?" "I just have a guilty conscience about Lucia, and I won¡¯t owe her anything for getting her daughter back." "Really?" In the middle of speaking, Justin had already walked to Esther''s front. He moved fast and twisted Esther¡¯s wrist. Screams of misery along with the sound of des falling to the ground rang out together! Justin held Eva''s armpit with one hand, and kicked Esther in her belly with a vicious stomp! Eva was held tightly in his arms, his face buried in Eva''s shoulder as he drew in several long breaths, "Eva, Eva, I''m sorry, I''m sorry, Daddy''ste." Eva hugged Justin''s head, with a sense of security. She could not hold back anymore and cried out loud sadly, sobbing, "Daddy ...... Daddy, Mommy hit ...... Eva , she hit ...... Eva ......" Justin walked quickly outside holding Eva, calling out to his bodyguard to get a doctor! His palms were big and warm. He rubbed Eva''s hair tenderly, only his voice trembled, "That''s not Mommy, Mommy wouldn''t hit Eva, that''s a demon that turned into Mommy''s appearance and tricked Eva. Mommy''s voice isn''t like that, Mommy did not look at you like that...... Mommy loves you, Eva." Justin carried Eva in the back seat of the car. He could be able to take care of Eva alone, delivered the milk bottle to her mouth. Looking at her tearful eyes, he was heartbroken. Chapter 42 Cruel Laugh Chapter 42 Cruel Laugh "Eva, drink some milk and daddy will take you to eat something delicious, okay?" Eva was still sobbing. She caught the milk bottle, and put it into her mouth, sucked two mouthfuls and then pulled out. With white milk on the corner of her mouth, she looked at Justin pitifully, her shoulders shaking, giving her intermittent expression, "Daddy ...... Daddy, Eva was... ...caught ...... by a demon, I want daddy, want daddy ...... to change ...... into Superman, to save Eva... ..." Justin''s eyes that had long been red were sore and swollen, "Eva, daddy will definitely protect Eva from now on, no one will be allowed to hurt Eva ever again. Daddy will get rid of any demons and monsters." When the doctor arrived, he couldn''t help but shed tears when he saw Eva covered in bruises, "God damned criminal! How could she be so cruel to a child?" Justin gritted his teeth, with tears in his eyes. He was so angry that he didn''t want to say a word, or he would cry out. Eva raised her unwounded arm to rub Justin''s face and said in a sweet voice, "Daddy, Eva is ok. Don¡¯t be sad, Daddy, I don¡¯t hurt. Don¡¯t cry, Daddy, or Eva will be heartbroken ......" Justin held her tightly. He was not her father, but hearing her words, he felt painful in his heart and said in a trembling voice, "I am just happy to find you, Eva, understand, Eva?" Eva fell asleep in the arms of Justin, her small hands clutching his shirt and refusing to let go. As soon as she was touched, she would shiver in her dream like she got frightened. He had to pat her back and gently coax her until she quieted down. Since she was covered with dust, Justin wanted to give her a bath, but he didn''t dare to move at all, for her trembling body in her dreams made his heart ache. Eva did not wake up until twelve at noon in the next day. Justin had remained in a position and did not dare to move a bit. When Eva opened her eyes, he smiled, "Eva, I will take you to take a bath. We can¡¯t go to Mommy these two days. Mommy is sick, if she knows you were hurt by the demon, she will be very sad. When you recover, we go to Mommy, okay? " Justin did not dare to take Eva to Lucia. Lucia did not have mental condition. If she saw Eva being hurt like that, she would go crazy. Eva nodded. Justin carried her to the bathroom, put her in the bathtub, and made bubbles for her. After a bath, he could see that Eva''s arms, legs, stomach, back, neck were full of bruises, even some parts had been swollen. Her fleshy small face got swollen by the p too, which was shocking to eyes! How could Esther do that to such a young child! He closed his eyes in pain and turned away, his fists clenched, taking deep breaths so that he could control himself from smashing stuff in front of a child! Law. What sentence couldw bring to this behavior to harm a child? Abuse? Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org. What level did it belong to? Justinughed lightly with cruelty, how could he let Esther go? Chapter 43 Kill Her Mother Chapter 43 Kill Her Mother He wrapped Eva in a towel and carried her out of the bathroom, and then helped her put on clothes. He told the doctor to continue to give Lucia with sedative drugs, so that she won¡¯t wake up. The doctor came out of Lucia''s room and went to Eva¡¯s room and applied her with medicine. Eva buried her face into Justin''s arms, whispering, "Daddy, I miss Mommy, when will Mommy get well?" "Soon, when you are recovered." The doctor was heartbroken about her injuries, "Mr. Sutton, it may a week for Eva to recover, for the area is big. You have to bring the culprit to justice! It''s abominable!" Justin only said, "How is the situation of Lucia, can she wait until Eva is well before she ......" Justin knew that Eva was sensible and he could not say too much in front of her, but the doctor understood his meaning, "Yes, but it is not good to use too much sedative medicine, and Lucia¡¯s mental condition ......" Too much sedative medicine would definitely do harm to Lucia. The doctor added, "I''ll make sure Eva gets rid of the bruise soon." Justin nodded. After the doctor left, he took Eva to y in the garden, trying to get Eva out of her fears. She was fine during the day, once she went to bed at night, Eva would cling to Justin''s clothes and not let go. When Lucia was around, Justin never had the chance to sleep with Eva, and after two days of getting along with Eva, he felt they were closer. She was sensible and would give him her love. Justin felt warm and moved. It didn''t really matter that he didn''t have any children of his own, for he had been ready to adopt one. Besides, Lucia was Eva¡¯s mother, so he was satisfied. From now on, Eva was his daughter! A white yacht sped towards the high seas! There was a woman with her hands tied and thrown overboard into the high seas! With waves sshed, Esther screamed in shock, "Justin! Forgive me! Please forgive me! I just want you to kill Lucia, I didn''t mean to kill the child!" Justin wore sunsses and a white linen shirt, and the sea breeze was so strong that it blew his shirt into a cloud above the sea. He lit a cigarette and put it into his mouth. As he leaned his body against the railing, he exhaled smoke He didn''t look at the woman in the sea, "You did not try to kill the child, but you tortured and abused her! When you abused a two-years-old child, wouldn¡¯t your hands shake?" "Justin! I did that because I love you!" Justin turned and looked down at the woman in the sea, "How can you love someone else when you only have jealousy in your heart? How could you push Lucia''s mother down the stairs when you were 16?" Esther only had her head and her hands tied above the sea. The sea water was bitter and salty, the Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org. sun was hot, which made her hard to support herself. Hearing his words, she had fear in her eyes, "Howe, howe you know that? You''re talking nonsense, I didn''t do that, she jumped off the building herself!" Chapter 44 Im Scared Chapter 44 I''m Scared Justin threw the cigarette onto the deck and stomped on it, "Well, you think a person who can¡¯t speak or writepose no threat to you, but the rural maid who was poisoned and mute by your mother Polly would learn to read and write, and then wrote down all the evidence of how you pushed Lucia''s mother down the stairs and how Polly poisoned and mute her ......" Esther cried and pleaded, "Justin! It happened long ago! I beg you to forgive me! For the sake of me loving you for so many years!" Esther was at lost, knowing that the fact she had killed someone was exposed. She did not know how to face it, but plead for mercy. Justin had someone pull Esther onto the boat. Esther thought he was going to let her go, only to have Justin look at her, "Eva is two years old, you cut her once, since you''re over twenty times her age, I''ll cut you twenty times." With that, he lifted his chin. His bodyguard took out a de and cut Esther twenty times as she screamed. Esther was so scared that she shrank into the corner, "Justin, I''m scared, don''t kill me, don''t kill me!" Justinughed loudly, "Of course I won''t kill you, but you are a murderer, what are you afraid of? Eva is only two years old, when you beat her, wasn''t she afraid? Didn''t she beg you not to beat her? Did you listen to her? " "Justin! Justin! I was wrong! I was wrong! Please forgive me!" Esther was covered in blood, kneeling on the deck to beg for mercy. "Since you are wrong, you should be punished. Don''t beg for forgiveness to anyone, after all, I am not your parents, nor your ancestors, I have obligation to forgive you. Eva was covered with wound, including her hands and feet, now she shivered in her sleep at night. I don¡¯t think cutting you twenty times will be enough, so ......" C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org As Justin waved his hand, the bodyguard dumped Esther into the sea, as well as a big bucket of fish. Esther''s hair stuck to her face, she looked at the man on the boat with wide eyes, "Justin, are you going to throw me in here? I beg you, take me back!" "They are piranha." Justin sneered, "You mistreated Eva, and I will take revenged for her. Do you think I will just hand you over to the police and just sentence you in jail for only a few years? I don¡¯t want any money, I just want an eye for an eye!" When Esther heard the word piranha, she screamed terribly. She tried to climb up, but she failed. She could only shout "Help!" Piranhas got unusually excited when they smelt blood! The wounds on Esther''s body were already painful from soaking in the sea, and the fear increased as the piranha''s teeth bit into her flesh. She feared being eaten into a skeleton! As she was sunk into the water, two fish bit down hard on her face. She opened her mouth to scream but the seawater filled her mouth in one gulp. Her whole body ached, and the torment of fear was killing her! Esther was again pulled out of the sea. Her body was in a bloody mess, several piranhas biting at her and refusing to let go as she shivered all over. "Are you scared?" Justin asked. "Yes! I am scared, Justin! I''m scared!" "Well, good, I just want you to be scared, so I can achieve my goal of taking revenge. I want you to have nightmares like Eva, to be so scared that you shiver and sob in your sleep all night." With cries of terror, Esther was thrown into the sea again. Her skin and flesh was torn apart by the ferociously fish, and she was pulled out at herst gasp. There was a mysterious ind in the high seas, where inhabited by aborigines who did not understand thenguage. Justin had Esther thrown onto the ind and left her to fend for herself! Chapter 45 Love You Till the End Chapter 45 Love You Till the End Seeing that flies on the boat, Justin coldly ordered someone to clean up the blood before he returned to A City. Back home, Justin took a bath andy down together with Eva, who had a maid with her but refused to sleep. Eva had been afraid to sleep before, after seeing Justin, she finally couldn''t hold on and fell asleep in a minute. Early morning. Justin opened his eyes, but found that Eva was not there with him, subconsciously he sat up with a start. Eva wasn''t in the room. Though it was impossible that Eva would be taken away, he was still nervous , "Eva?" Maybe Eva was ying hike and seek, for kids liked to y childish games that they felt funny. Just at this moment, Justin heard the sound from the bathroom. The closer he got, the more nervous he was. Lucia low voice wasing out of the bathroom. Lucia smiled as she bathed Eva, who was ying with bubbles, giggling, "Mommy, do you get well now? I miss you so much. Daddy said you are sick, and when you are well, I can go to see you." Lucia looked at the bruises all over Eva''s body, she felt hard to breathe. She smiled and nodded through tears, "I am sick, will you resent me? Eva, I am sorry, did I hit you?" Lucia felt guilty. She knew she was sick, but she didn''t expect that she would hurt Eva badly, she was so inhuman! She was a brute! But Eva looked at her innocently, touching the tears on Lucia''s face, exining seriously in her soft voice, "Don''t cry, Mommy, it''s not you hit Eva. It''s a demon turned into Mommy''s appearance and hit Eva, but Daddy has beaten the demon away, no more demons will hit Eva ...... " Lucia raised her head, her heart hurt so much, thinking she had be a demon when she was sick and beat her own child badly. Lucia took the shower head and rinsed off the bubbles on Eva''s body, "Eva, there will be no demons in the future. You must not separate from daddy, daddy will fight the demons, daddy will not let the demons bully Eva ......" Justin walked to the bathroom door and called out to "Lucia". Lucia turned to look at Justin, gritting her teeth with tears in her eyes. Justin pulled her away, "Eva identally fell, I ...... I ......" Justin did not know what to do. He wanted to wait for Eva to get well before letting Lucia wake up, but C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org sedatives were harmful, so he instructed the doctor to use fewer doses, however, he did not expect Lucia to wake up early. Lucia got in Justin''s arms, crying. Justin told the nanny toe in and take Eva out to y. Justin hugged Lucia, "Lucia, it has nothing to do with you!" Lucia''s sobs were suppressed and mournful, she didn''t dare to cry out for fear that Eva would hear her. She could only clutch Justin''s silk pajamas, her tears were like a flood that had been released, "How could I be so bad? How could I be so bad when I was sick? Eva said that a demon had turned into my appearance and beat her, she was so young, but she found excuses tofort me. She is my child! How can I be so inhumane! Justin! Send me to jail! Let the judge sentence me to death! I beg you! I don''t deserve to be a mother! I''m a psycho! I am sick and can''t remember anything, I took her out, I hit her, I hurt her like an enemy, and if I don¡¯t go in jail, I don''t know what I''ll do to her. Justin! Don''t let me see Eva! Don''t let me hurt her!" Justin kept reassuring Lucia, "Lucia, it''s not you, it''s Esther! I have taken revenge for Eva! No one will ever dare to hurt Eva again." Lucia couldn''t listen to Justin''s words, her reasoning was out of control and she became more and more agitated. Her sobs grew louder and louder, heartbreaking, she pounded her head, "I can''t be that bad, in order to save her, I insisted on two days and nights of surgery, got blood transfusion, I almost died for her. In order to keep her, I left the people I hated and wanted to hurt me, I obviously wanted to get back at them so badly, but I couldn''t, I had to let go of my hate and stay away from those dangerous people. I was afraid that my revenge would keep her froming into this world, I was afraid that she would be soaked in formalin like her brother." Lucia screamed in pain and mmed her head into Justin''s shoulder, "I had such a hard time keeping my child, how could I do harm to her? I hate myself, Justin! I''m a beast! You can kill me! Kill me!" Justin held Lucia''s hand, very tightly, and then put her into his arms. It was so tight that he couldn''t even breathe, and when he breathed, all the veins in his internal organs were torn to the point of killing him. He didn''t even dare to recall what Lucia said, it hurt too much ...... How could he have imagined that a little girl who couldn''t even walk yet was two and a half years old in real age? How could he have known that she was carrying twins at that time, that it was only one of them that was miscarried, and that she had cost a fortune to keep the other one? And he was not around her back then. Eva was his daughter! Eva, who had touched his face and told him not to be sad over and over again, was actually his own daughter! Fate was so cruel that he wasted so much time. The pain that seemed to be inflicted on Lucia, at this time, all reverberated viciously on him. There was no wound, but every part of it hurt to the bone. When he closed his eyes, he could see that Eva was covered with bruise and eyes flooded with tears, his poor Eva ...... "Lucia! It''s all my fault, it is my fault, Lucia. Don''t forgive me, Never forgive me! Just let me make it up to you, make it up to Eva, I won''t be able to pay off my debt to you until I die in this life, I can only give you the rest of my life!" Justin hugged Lucia, his face buried in the nook of her neck, his sobs mixed with hers, "Lucia, thank you, thank you for keeping a child for me, I''m really content." Lucia gradually quieted. She looked up at Justin, her eyes were getting clearer and clearer as she gazed at this handsome man with deep feelings that were once absent. Justin took Lucia''s hand and walked to the window, holding her shoulder and pointing at Eva who was cuddling with the dog in the garden downstairs, "Lucia, from now on, we will never be separated again." For a long time after he finished, the woman beside him was silent, until he felt the trembling of her thin shoulders beneath his palm, and heard a soft sobbing, "Ok!"
