《Hellfire's Fangs Bite Deep》全部章節：第 1 章 - 第 7 章

I froze on the spot as my mind went blank. Rebecca stood in front of me, disappointment written all over her face. She was supposed to have been blown to pieces five years ago."You couldn't even wait for another ten seconds, Ethan?" She sneered. "Is your love always this cheap? I've finally seen what kind of man you really are, thanks to Mason agreeing to make this bet with me."My ears rang as I felt as though my voice was stuck inside of me. "What bet?""A bet on your loyalty to me." Rebecca's tone was relaxed, almost as though she were merely chatting about something ordinary. "The explosion five years ago was staged. I just wanted to see whether you'd stay loyal to me."Before she could finish, several bodyguards carried two stretchers over from a distance. I rushed forward, my hands shaking so badly that it took me a long time to peel back the white sheets.When I saw my parents' charred bodies, my legs gave out as I dropped to my knees. I couldn't even force out a tear anym

When I woke up, Rebecca was standing beside the hospital bed with a lab report in her hand. "The doctor said you should get some proper rest over the next two days."There was no warmth in her voice, and my heart tightened.Had she found out?But the next second, she sneered. "Are you done pretending? Coughing blood didn't work, so now you're faking a terminal illness? After five years in the underground fighting ring, you still haven't learned a thing. All you know is to use these filthy tricks to fool others."I stared at her blankly, then lowered my head and forced myself to smile.Right. I had almost forgotten.She was no longer the Rebecca who would feel sorry for me.Just then, Mason pushed the door open and came in. He then said in a sincere tone, "I know you feel terrible because of all that anger you felt from Rebecca buying me a sports car. I heard snakes are good for your condition, so I had someone catch the best snakes for you."Rebecca's voice softened. "You don't

Rebecca looked like she had seen a ghost. Her face went deathly pale as she stared at Clara. The atmosphere around them seemed to freeze, and all you could hear was her heavy breathing.Time ticked slowly, but Clara's eyes were filled only with sternness and cold expectations.After several seconds of dead silence, Rebecca suddenly laughed.She grabbed the short knife and pressed the tip to her own heart without hesitation as everyone stared in shock. "As you wish!"There was the sound of a spurt, and then blood started to gush out, staining her hands and the front of her clothes red.Clara simply watched in silence, her eyes completely still.Only when Rebecca staggered and grabbed the doorframe with blood staining her fingers and around the knife handle did Clara raise her hand slightly. She signaled the people behind her not to step forward."Can I see him now?" Rebecca's voice carried an irrational stubbornness.Clara stepped aside, her voice as calm as if she were talking

The ambulance siren drew closer and closer before finally stopping at the crematorium entrance.The medical staff rushed out. When they saw Rebecca lying in a pool of blood, they all gasped. The knife was still lodged in her chest, trembling faintly along with her weak heartbeat.The doctor quickly examined her with a grave expression. "The tip of the knife is pressing right against the edge of her heart. One millimeter more and she would have died on the spot. She needs surgery now!"When Rebecca was lifted onto the stretcher, her eyes were still open, fixed in the direction where Clara had disappeared. Her view was finally blocked once the ambulance doors shut.-Three months later.Rebecca woke up from her long coma. Thick bandages wrapped her chest, and every breath tugged at the wound with a sharp pain. The hospital room was quiet except for the continuous beeping from the medical equipment around her.After Rebecca was discharged, she did not return to her family. She did
