When the Pain Runs Deep, I Let Go Chapter 9
Suddenly, the front door of the villa shook under a series of heavy blows.Sebastian's furious roar echoed from outside the villa. "Leonard! If you lay a finger on her, I'll make you wish you were dead!""Willy, look at him."Leonard suddenly chuckled and reached out to caress my face. "He's so worried now. Why didn't he show up sooner?"His voice grew softer, edged with tears. "I know I was wrong. Can we start over?"I suddenly laughed, even as tears rolled uncontrollably down my cheeks. "Leonard, you'll never understand."Sirens blared outside the door, and Leonard froze.I seized the opportunity and slammed my head into his temple. The moment he loosened his grip in pain, Sebastian burst through the door and pulled me tightly into his arms.Leonard staggered backward, his back slamming hard against the wall covered in roses.He could only watch as Sebastian wrapped me in his coat, his palm carefully protecting the back of my head.Seeing how worried Sebastian was cut him deeply.The

Leonard acted as though he hadn't heard Sebastian.He crawled toward me, then suddenly tore open his collar, exposing a web of scars crisscrossing his neck."Look! I did all of this for you!"Trembling, he pulled a small kitchen knife from his pocket and pressed the blade against his chest."If you'll just come back to me, I'll tear my heart out right now and show you!"Sebastian was about to step in, but I raised a hand to stop him."Leonard." I looked into his bloodshot eyes, blazing with madness. My voice was cold as ice. "When they dragged me into that church, I begged you to turn around and look at me. I cried out for you louder than this.""That's not true!"Leonard suddenly slashed his own arm, and blood splattered across the hem of my newly designed silk dress.He crawled toward me on his knees, his bloodstained hand clamping tightly around my heel."I regret it every single day! I sent Xandra into the black market, and I even sold off Jasper Group to atone for what I did."Ple

By then, I was already abroad.Sebastian hired a professional caregiver and a therapist for me. Under his care, I gradually regained my health.When he saw me becoming cheerful again, he pulled me into his arms, his heart aching for me."Willy, this time, I won't let anyone take you away from me."Years ago, a family tragedy left me an orphan. Before my father died, he entrusted me to Sebastian.I had always regarded Sebastian as an uncle, but we weren't related by blood or legally.It was simply because he had been very close to my father.But I was going through a rebellious phase at the time and refused to listen to Sebastian.I was starved for love and affection when I met Leonard, and from there, everything spiraled out of control.I fell out with Sebastian and insisted on being with Leonard. Even though Leonard always used work as an excuse to put off marriage, I still insisted on staying with him.I thought he had his reasons. I never imagined that he had been lying to me from t

Leonard froze, staring blankly at the date on the report.So I had been pregnant too.On the back of the prenatal checkup report, there was a small handwritten note."Be good, baby. We won't tell Daddy just yet."It'll be a surprise for him. And Daddy's already having a hard time at work. We don't want to put any more pressure on him."Leonard completely broke down. He let out a furious roar and swept everything off the table.After taking several deep breaths, he called the police.He wanted the police to punish Xandra severely, but somehow, she managed to avoid being detained.Furious, he hurled his phone and returned to Kestrelon, determined to deal with Xandra himself.But Xandra was nowhere to be found.In a daze, Leonard sifted through the belongings I had left behind.Then he discovered that I had been in contact with the team that had helped stage my death the day before. A flicker of realization crossed his eyes.Just then, someone knocked on the villa door. He was thrilled, t

Leonard rushed down beneath the overpass in horror.He found me lifeless, my body mangled beyond recognition after being run over by passing traffic."Willy!"He stumbled toward me and pulled my broken body into his arms, trembling."No... This can't be happening. Willy, wake up."His phone vibrated violently in his pocket. Seeing Xandra's name flash across the screen made his eyes sting.He angrily rejected the call and pulled me tightly into his arms."No..."He repeated the word over and over, his voice growing hoarse."Why did you jump out of the car? Why did you jump out of the car?"Leonard finally broke down, crying out in anguish.Just then, Xandra called again. Remembering that she was suffering from severe blood loss, he finally answered.Xandra's concerned voice came through the phone. "Leonard, I saw the news. Don't be upset just yet."If Willy really wanted to hurt me, she must have been confident she could get away with it. Jumping off the overpass was probably just a tri

"Don't give me that pathetic look."Leonard grabbed my arm. "Get in the car. You're going to apologize to Xandra."I looked at him and shook my head. "Leonard, you're married. You have a child. Why won't you just let me go?"He froze at my words. Then he caught the foul smell coming from me and covered his nose in disgust."You haven't been back to the villa all day, and now you show up looking like this. Are you trying to avoid taking responsibility again?"Willa, I'm not the same Mr. Jasper I used to be. I can't protect you anymore. Come with me to the hospital and apologize to Ms. Sullivan. Do you really want to end up in jail?"I looked up at him and let out a broken laugh."Leonard, search your conscience. What exactly do I owe you?"A dull ache in my lower abdomen made my vision go black."You said you'd take me home. You said you'd give me a happy life. Instead, you pushed me straight into hell."His expression changed instantly when his eyes fell on my bloodstained clothes."Wh
