Chapter 699

Penulis: Sienna Yates
Your idea of treating me well… is completely disregarding my feelings and trying to cripple my friend's hand? You're crazy."

Casey didn't waste time questioning the grand, poetic promises of love once made in the heat of passion. When love disappears, vows are nothing but empty words.

She looked at Damien coldly, her eyes stripped of every trace of feeling—only the icy disdain reserved for someone utterly detested remained.

"Damien, I owe you nothing. You're the one who owes me. So consider this swing today as a means to settle your debt to me."

She turned to Thomas. "Go ahead."

Thomas stepped toward Damien.

Damien sneered at Thomas.

"You scrawny thing think you can take me on?"

Before he could finish, a fist shot forward with blinding speed. Had Damien not trained himself before, he wouldn't have had a chance to react.

Instinctively, he raised his hand to block. But he'd forgotten that his palm had already been pierced by a flying knife, leaving it useless.

Thomas, however,

    Carter said, "Theo is still at the amusement park. I'll go find him."He made it sound as if he were only going to pick up his son, but the truth was, he was looking for Sharon.Kelly's voice trembled, fragile and pitiful. "Carter, are you really going to leave me here all alone?"In the past, the sight of her like this would have stirred his pity. But now, for reasons he couldn't explain, it only made him irritable.Suppressing the impatience boiling inside, he said flatly, "Don't worry. You won't be alone. I've already asked Nate to come keep you company."The moment his words fell, a knock sounded on the hospital room door.Nate hurried in, his face lined with worry. "Kelly, why are you hospitalized again? Hasn't your health been stable these past few weeks?"Kelly's fingers twisted into the bedsheet.So, just to chase after Sharon, Carter had even called Nate here.Since when did Sharon hold such sway over him?Were all men the same—that what they couldn't have was always

    "Yes, the boy is still young. If he doesn't want to go, then so be it. But you're a grown man. How can you still not know how to care for your wife?""He looks proper enough, but who knew he'd be this cold-blooded?"The crowd's reproachful voices came one after another, each sharper than the last, and Carter's expression grew increasingly grim.Instinctively, he tried to explain. "She's not my wife."The moment the words left his mouth, the scolding only intensified."If she's not your wife, then why are you holding her?""Exactly! If it's nothing, why are you the only one clinging to her while everyone else keeps their distance?""And that child earlier—isn't he your son? With a boy that old, you must have been married for years. If this young lady isn't your wife, yet you're holding her so intimately, then isn't that adultery?"Carter felt a surge of inexplicable anger at their accusations.How could they twist things so badly?Unwillingly, his gaze shifted toward Sharon, d

    It was Sharon who had told Kelly about this amusement park. If she dared to reveal the location, then clearly she wasn't afraid of Kelly causing trouble. Or perhaps, she had already prepared herself for it.Sharon only smiled faintly, offering no denial."They shouldn't have come with us in the first place," she said calmly. "If they've left, all the better."Yes—she had done it deliberately. Sharon knew Kelly would make a scene. Since Carter had chosen to come along, he could leave the same way.Whether "they" included Theo, Xavier couldn't be sure. He didn't ask. Instead, he turned to her and asked, "So, do you still want to ride the pirate ship, or something else?"Sharon glanced around before asking Matty, "Matty, do you want to try the bumper cars?"Matty's face lit up, his joy sparkling brighter now that the bothersome Carter and Theo were finally leaving."Yes! I want to!" he beamed.Sharon took his small hand. "Then let's go."Just as they were about to leave, Theo—s

    Without waiting for Kelly's response, Theo stepped inside as well.Theo and Matty claimed their usual spots at Sharon's side—one to the left, the other to the right. Xavier took the seat beside Matty, while Carter, who had followed them in, sat down next to Theo.Just then, a pale figure lowered herself into the seat beside Carter.Startled, he turned. "Why are you here? With your condition, aren't you forbidden from riding things like this?"Kelly lowered her voice into a soft murmur. "My health has improved a great deal lately. Besides, Theo just said that if one never exercises, the body will only grow weaker. I've never ridden a pirate ship before. I thought… why not give it a try?"With a single sentence, she neatly shifted the blame onto Theo.After the safety officer checked everyone's restraints, the pirate ship began to sway. At first, the motion was gentle. The ship was massive, and its rocking was smooth, hardly enough to cause dizziness or discomfort.For Theo, it

    Just then, the carousel whirred to life.Carter stepped forward but was stopped by a staff member.Noticing the scene, Xavier lifted his hand in an easy wave, the curve of his lips carrying a deliberately provoking smile. He dropped the previous subject and turned the conversation to lighter matters, easing Sharon's tension.When the ride ended, Theo and Matty hopped off, faces glowing with delight. The two children immediately began scanning for their next adventure.Xavier's gaze slid to Kelly, who clung to Carter's side like a stubborn shadow. His eyes gleamed with mischief as he suggested, "Matty, haven't you always wanted to try the pirate ship? How about we go now?"The first thing Matty did was turn to Sharon, seeking her opinion. "Sharon, do you want to go?"Meeting Matty's hopeful eyes, Sharon gave a small nod. Then she turned toward Theo."Theo, if you'd rather not, you can wait for us down here…"Her words were cut short."I want to go!" Theo interrupted firmly.Sh

    Xavier glanced at the pair not far away, a faint laugh escaping his lips."I'm not about to play the third wheel. Besides, I've never been on a carousel before. Thought I'd give it a try."Sharon followed his gaze and said evenly, "Kelly isn't in good health. Rides like this usually make her dizzy. Once, when we took Theo to the park, he insisted she ride the carousel with him. She fainted halfway through and had to be rushed to the hospital. Afterward, Carter scolded him harshly."At the time, Carter had been tied up with work and hadn't joined them. But the moment he heard Kelly had collapsed, he dropped his meeting and rushed over.Sharon herself had even been blamed for the incident.The reason? Children don't understand, but shouldn't adults know better? Why let Kelly take such a "dangerous" ride?The accusation had struck Sharon as laughable, yet it left her bitterly wronged.Theo didn't know about Kelly's condition, but didn't Kelly know it herself? If she couldn't ride,
