A Lifetime To Settle The Score 소설 & 이야기

"It hasn't functioned like a contract for quite some time, Lorrie." She looked up into the depths of his gray eyes. "So... what exactly happens to us after the one-year clause expires?" Lorenzo answered without a single millisecond of hesitation. "We physically tear the legal documents into ash." "And then?" "We write our own parameters." A soft smile finally graced her lips, warm and unbroken. "A lifetime contract?" He held her gaze, his voice turning into an absolute, binding vow. "A lifetime." He began to lean in, his powerful frame tilting down to close the final distance between their lips—

“Any last word, mutt?” “Check Mate.” The look on her face was pure confusion, then it turned cold as ice she pushed the blade into my chest at an agonizingly slow pace. I know some people see their whole lives flash before their eyes in situations like this but for me all I could see was Ethan, and life we could have together.

Zendaya yelled in anger as she struggled to break free. He had hurt Jayden and all wanted to do was hurt him back but she couldn't as her hands were tied. “You can do so in your next life,” Anil said as he pointed the gun to Zendaya's head. “Goodbye Zendaya. I hope we can be more in our next life,” he said and Zendaya closed gsr eyes wait for him to pull the trigger. Bang! It went off.

Vincenzo snapped, his voice laced with annoyance. Scott's gaze remained piercing, a mix of frustration and something akin to hurt beneath the surface. "Cindy, you're making a mistake. These are not the kind of people you want to spend the rest of your life with." I met his eyes, a solemn resolve in my expression. "I know it's not a game, Scott. But I need to live my life on my terms, not dictated by the rules of the Cosa Nostra." Scott looked between the two of us, a mix of frustration and resignation crossing his face. He squeezed his eyes shut and uttered, "Leave, leave now..."

"As for Noel, a woman I really hate to the core, I constantly think about how I can tarnish her reputation and make her wish she were dead. Now, I don't even need to do that because you helped me exact revenge. You've taken so many indecent videos of Noel and she would be brought to justice under the law given the dirty business she collided with the Stuarts on. There's no future to speak of for her." "Since everyone that I want to take revenge on has received their just deserts, there's nothing more I pursue in this life. At most, I want to respect my mom's dying wish of living well. I never expected to meet you and have Dicky in my life in my life of misfortune, and that alone is enough to

I am pissed at Seth, because he has been visiting her as well. Maybe I can go in to see her. If I can be alone in her room long enough, maybe I can turn off her ventilator long enough to cause permanent damage. If the bitch won’t die, then maybe she can be in a coma for the rest of her life. That may be even a better plan. Instead of a quick end to her life, the suffering could last forever. Her parents would never pull the plug on her. Holden would suffer forever seeing her that way. That would be the sweetest revenge ever.

“Yeah. It is.” But I knew better. This fight was over, but the scars it left behind wouldn’t fade overnight. We had won. But now, we had to figure out how to live with everything that came after. Behind me, Ethan exhaled sharply. “Well. That was satisfying.” I ignored him, my focus solely on the girl in my arms. “We’re done with this life,” I told her, voice steady. “For good.” She swallowed hard, nodding. “For good.”

I asked, "Have you heard of people biting the hand that feeds them? Do you think I'll save you a second time after being bitten once?" She stared at me in horror, like I was a monster. "You've been lying to me this whole time!" I smiled and said, "Congratulations on guessing correctly! You love lying to people, so it's time for you to get a taste of your own medicine. Isn't it nice?" Wanda screamed in rage. Then, she choked to death as blood gurgled in her throat. She stared at me in horror and disbelief as she died. I'd had the same look on my face when dying in my past life. Now, I'd gotten back at her for everything she did to me. She'd repaid the debt she owed me.

“It’s alright. I don’t mind and you don’t have to apologize, Tami.” I sighed, gathering myself together. And the silly man grinned again to tease me. “Well, sometimes, I also need and enjoy witnessing a drama right in front of me.” I just frustratedly ran my fingers through my hair and rolled my eyes. He chuckled. Ethan even caressed his chin as if thinking something playful. “Johann and Celyn… I and Scarlette. Looks like I already have an idea now who’s next in line, within our circle of friends, to get married…”

Then he slid the pink pearl back. “The precedent’s already been set. Noble sacrifice earns Immortality. Reel will testify to that.” Angel looked at her brother, who held his wife’s hand to his lips. Reel had earned Immortality for sav¬ing Erica’s life, then declined it to spend the rest of his with her.
