Chapter 451

I screamed in terror and felt the acute pain in my body with higher intensity. Suddenly, there were heavy footsteps coming in from beyond! “Oh, you’re awake?” That voice… Chris! I asked urgently, “Where’s Zachary?” “You’re still thinking about him?” “Where’s Zachary? I want to see him!” I was dead set on meeting Zachary. He asked me in confusion, “Zachary just stabbed you, yet you’re thinking of him?” Flabbergasted, I asked, “What did you say?” “Zachary just stabbed you!” I shook my head and said, “I don’t believe you!” I would not believe it, but the pain coming from my stomach was so clear. Chris dragged me out of the jail. Meanwhile, Zachary and a wrinkly old foreigner, who exuded an intimidating aura, was standing nearby. Chris introduced, “That’s Master Silas.” I asked him, “Who is Master Silas?” Chris did not answer me. I heard that so-called Master Silas asking, “What’s your relationship with that Asian girl?” Zachary replied, “There’s nothing.” “Chris said that she’s your woman.” Zachary replied, “It’s just a woman.” His tone was so nonchalant, so casual. Master Silas asked, “Do you love her?” “Never.” That was Zachary’s signature. Never… Zachary just said he never loved me. In the past, many asked me that question and I was sure that Zachary loved me! However, at that moment, he told someone else that he never loved me. Could it be that it was just my own foolishness? “If that’s the case, then throw her out.” Chris suddenly asked me, “Why are you crying?” I was not sure, but it felt like my heart was aching. I asked him, “Who’s Master Silas?” “What’s wrong? Do you think Zachary is being threatened to tell lies? Since you don’t believe it, you can ask Zachary yourself when he comes later.” Having said that, Chris stated again, “He’s here.” I looked over. He was coming. He was approaching with a ruthless aura. It was a side of him that I never saw before. I muttered, “Second Brother.” My body was still in great pain. I wanted to open my arms and ask for his hug, but I lost the courage to do that at that moment. He was the one that hit me and stabbed me! It was all done by this man before me that I loved. He just said that I was but a woman. In his eyes, I was just a woman. “Caroline, there is something I must clarify between us.” My palm covered the injury on my stomach as I asked him in a gentle and weak voice, “Second Brother, what do you want to say to me?” Deep down, I was still holding out hopes for him. “I’m unwilling to lose my mother once more.” I stared blankly at him. “Are you trying to…break up with me?”
