Chapter 242: Worth It?
r this.This can't be blamed on him, because back then, his niece who was once a famous literary figure, had many books that publishers fought to sign publishing rights for, but she didn't sell any of...He suddenly raised his head, blood-red eyes filled with murderous intent, grinning savagely, making everyone's scalp tingle.
The old man was hacked!
He stumbled backward several steps, for what felt like an eternity. The bone-chilling cold shook him so violently he couldn't utter a word.
“You… you’re really crazy!”
"Yeah, I'm crazy, you know If you kill her, I can't promise what I'll do." Huo Si Jue dragged out each word, forcing them from between his teeth.
Yes, that's exactly why he came today!
That woman, either give him up today or he'll wait for him to go mad again.
The old man's entire face had turned white.
He anticipated that things would be difficult to explain once this matter was revealed, but he didn't expect his response to be so rigid, threatening him with himself.
When did he ever get this attentive to a woman
Didn't he used to not care about her life or death
The old man stared at his son, a mixture of shock and anger washing over him. For the first time, he felt utterly unfamiliar with him, as if he were a complete stranger.
“I didn't kill her, and I didn't touch her. You don't need to go crazy!” The old man finally said this in a defeated manner, like a beaten rooster, hanging his head.
Ho Sijue's two eyes, still carrying a hint of danger, narrowed immediately.
"Didn't you"
"Yeah, I never intended to kill her. I just wanted her to stay by my side and not go out anymore. But this little girl actually ran away last night, and I'm looking for her now."
The old man couldn't help but get angry again when he got to this point.
Yesterday, he truly didn't have the heart to go that far. To make amends, he had even prepared several property deeds and some valuable jewelry.
Just intend to let this little girl come over and then give her.
No one expected that she would actually run away!
Huo Sijue understood, and in that instant, a large stone in his heart fell. As he stared at this father, a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes.
"Does she not run, but instead wait to be imprisoned by you for a lifetime"
"You—"
The old man choked to death there again.
Fortunately, the son was not as frenzied at this time. He stood up and calmly straightened his clothes.
"Human, I will find them back, but I hope this kind of thing won't happen again. What kind of person she is, you know better than me, don't you"
"What did you say"
"I'm saying, back then when you went to ask for her hand in marriage, wasn't it because you knew exactly what she was like that you did it, right"
He turned again.
However, this time, the gaze was even more terrifying.
He looked at him, with no expression of anger on his face, but his eyes, dark as pitch, seemed to pierce the old man's heart, digging up everything he had buried deep inside, things he could never speak aloud!
When did he know all this!!
The old man's face finally turned completely pale.
At this moment, he had lost all his arguments. He looked like a rabbit caught in headlights, his face flushed red and white, it was quite a sight to see.
Ho Sijue saw this, and only sneered coldly before turning around and leaving.
That's right, back then, everyone thought it was Huo Jia who acted out of righteousness. He helped that destitute orphan when she was at her lowest point, showing compassion and support during a time of need for her ruined family.
But who would know, he did all this just for this girl
Because she had stumbled upon Huo Sijue's secret, he never trusted her outside. He was afraid that one day, she would reveal the secret and ruin Huo Sijue.
Then, he deliberately came to propose when she was at her most destitute.
And what about this girl
She had always felt guilty and self-reproachful towards Huo Sijue ever since that incident when she was a child, and in her heart, she truly liked him all along.
She gave up the university she had already been admitted to, gave up the opportunity to help her family regain their former glory, and married into their family in a gamble.
What's the result
That's the kind of ending she got.
Huo Sijue was trembling slightly as he drove away.
He actually didn't know these things. It was only when he talked to the old man just now that he saw the indifference in his eyes towards that woman's life and death, that he finally understood.
The impact was too great!
He never knew, his father was such a ruthless character.
And yet his acting is so good, he even fooled himself.
"Beep—"
His emotions reached their peak, and he punched the steering wheel with all his might!
That was pain.
He never knew, that one day, he would truly feel sorry for this woman.
It felt like something sharp had pierced his heart. He didn't want to admit it, but the real pain was so intense that he almost slumped over the steering wheel, unable to straighten his back.
Why is she so stupid
Is it really worth it for him
When he discovered she was the one who left him the note all those years ago, he didn't react much. He knew she had kept his secret and never spoken of it, and he felt nothing.
But now, he truly felt sorry for her.
Excruciatingly sharp and piercing, the pain was so intense he could barely hold the steering wheel.hat is the sworn enemy of the Raymond family.However, the Raymond family didn't dare to fight him because the Duke was still a member of the royal family. If he seized the Raymond family's handle, he...
