Kristen raised her head. Tears welled up in her eyes. Her eyes, which used to be bright and clear, were now gray. Marco seemed to see through her eyes and knew her heart was as dead as ash.
Kristen’s stomach was still aching. Kristen was tired of the pain. She opened her sour eyes. “Marco, my family has been destroyed, and I have repaid what I owed you…”
“What do you mean?” Marco interrupted her before she finished. “Kristen, you will never be able to repay what you owed me. Don’t even think about blaming your father’s death on me. Your father is dead and your brother is still alive. If you don’t want your brother to be like your father, you’d better drop that idea. You know what I’m capable of.”
Since Kristen had already decided that he was extremely cruel, then he would show it to her.
Marco stood in front of her. He was very tall and had his back to the light. The shadows made his face look especially gloomy.
“Are you threatening me with Aden?”
“It’s not a threat. Everything I do depends on my mood. If you make me happy, I will let him go. If I am unhappy, he will die worse than your father.”
As he spoke, Marco curled his lips and slowly approached Kristen like a bloodthirsty demon. “Kristen, you don’t have to worry about it. Your remaining family is just like your enemy now. Have they ever cared about you since you were born? I’m sure that if you were the one in danger, they would never waste their time on you.”
Kristen was too caring but she couldn’t even take care of herself. If she couldn’t change it, she deserved to be Marco’s tool.
Kristen clenched her fists and pinched her fingers into her palms. She was restraining the anger in her chest. As a woman, she could not defeat Marco. She could not talk back either.
Marco indeed saw things more clearly than Kristen, and he was right, but could she really do it?
As long as she thought of it, the words that Darin said before he died kept repeating in her mind, making her ears buzz.
Kristen was about to die in two years. Exchanging her two-year life for Aden’s life was worth it.
There was no expression on Kristen’s face that could escape Marco’s eyes. Seeing her keep silent, he knew that she had thought it through.
What he said just now was a sincere suggestion to her. It was she who could not throw away her feelings. Who could be blamed?
Kristen would never be able to escape from him in this life. Even if she flew out, there was an invisible string tied to her feet. It was like a kite. If the string was gently pulled in Marco’s hand, she would return to his side.
Marco handed the cup in his hand to Kristen. Seeing her open her mouth to drink, he revealed a satisfied smile. “Kristen, as long as you are obedient, we will be fine.” His patience was limited, and he couldn’t hear her keep mentioning divorce.
Kristen closed her eyes.
Suddenly, with a bang, the door was pushed open from outside. Before the person came in, they heard the sound and looked up.
“Kristen.”
“She’s already asleep,” Marco stood by the bed and blocked Kristen completely from Antonio’s sight.
Antonio opened his mouth and said his purpose bluntly, “I want to bring Kristen back to my house.” Marco was too dangerous. Kristen would be tortured by him sooner or later. He couldn’t leave her there alone.
Marco felt funny and sneered, “Dr. Balan probably forgot that Kristen was my wife. What right do you have to take her away?”
“Marco, are you qualified to say this? Kristen will divorce you!”
With such a firm attitude, it seemed that Kristen had often said it to Antonio. When Marco thought of Kristen with another man in a place he could not see and doing intimate things, he would rage with fire.
“Is that so?” Marco smiled. “But she just said that she won’t divorce me. She will listen to me and be my wife.”
Marco was good at disguising his emotions. Though he was filled with anger, no one could see him through.
Antonio immediately retorted, “That’s impossible. Marco, didn’t you hurt her enough? How could she be willing to be with you?”
“Maybe it’s because she is a bitch.” Marco’s tone was full of mockery.
Antonio stiffened. He always knew that Marco was not good to Kristen, but he never thought that he would actually say that Kristen was a bitch in front of him.
Antonio couldn’t control his anger and shouted, “Bastard!” He raised his fist and rushed forward.
Marco’s eyes turned cold. He dodged his fist and grabbed Antonio by the collar with one hand. He swung Antonio to the ground. Antonio groaned and tried to fight back. However, he was subdued by Marco in a few seconds. Antonio even suffered a punch on his face.
Antonio couldn’t fight as well as Marco. He was a medical student, and Marco had won the champion of some free-sparring competition. He got the talent.
Antonio was hit until he was dizzy and he tasted blood. No matter how badly he was beaten up and how painful the wound was, he did not give up the idea of taking Kristen away.
“Can you stop fighting here? Take it somewhere else.” Kristen couldn’t help speaking.
Marco still had his hand around Antonio’s neck. His raised fist stopped in the air. When he heard Kristen’s weak voice, he turned around and looked at Kristen coldly. “What? You can’t stand it that I beat him up?”
Marco’s voice was toneless that no one could tell if he was very angry, but the words he said were as harsh as ever.
Antonio, who was suppressed, could not help but roar, “Kristen, come back with me. If you continue to be with him, you will die!”
Marco tightened the hand that was gripping Antonio’s neck. Seeing Antonio’s face that was red from holding back, he smiled and said, “Even if I hurt her that much, it’s not your turn to lecture me here. As long as Kristen is my wife, you can only watch her and can do nothing about it!”
These words were not only for Antonio but also for Kristen. He wanted her to know that even if she died, she would not be able to escape his imprisonment.
“Marco, you bastard!”
With Antonio’s scream, Marco broke one of Antonio’s hands.
No one had expected such a thing. Kristen, who was sitting on the bed, completely froze. Her heart suddenly stopped, as if he was holding her. It was so painful that she could not breathe.
Antonio was a surgeon. He had saved so many people. But now, because of her, Marco broke one of his hands.
Kristen suddenly felt that her body was very cold. Not only her body, but her entire heart seemed to have been cut open, and the cold wind blew.
Marco had already misunderstood the relationship between her and Antonio. At this time, the more Kristen was concerned about Antonio, the angrier Marco would become, so she could not show any expression.
“Marco, let go of Antonio and let me make it clear to him.” Kristen tightened her grip on the bedsheet.
She looked down at Antonio, who was lying on the ground with a painful expression and pretended to be indifferent. “Antonio, I won’t divorce Marco. I like him. I just like him. Don’t try to persuade me, and don’t talk about divorce in front of us again to sabotage our relationship.”
“Kristen, do you know what you are talking about? Is Marco threatening you?” Antonio did not believe it.
“No one is threatening me. I just want to stay by his side. You can go. Don’t worry about me again.” She didn’t want to see Antonio get hurt again because of her. In any case, she only had two years. If Marco wanted to waste time, just let him.
“If you had said that earlier, things wouldn’t have been solved sooner.” Marco was satisfied with what Kristen said. He smiled, but his lips were cold. He approached Antonio and whispered, “Kristen is not someone you can dream of.”
Marco let go of Antonio and stood up. He raised his foot and kicked Antonio to the corner of the wall, making a loud bang.
“Antonio…” Kristen did not expect that she had already followed Marco’s instructions and he would still want to kill Antonio.
Kristen’s voice gradually disappeared under Marco’s murderous look on his face.
Marco came to Kristen’s bedside and looked at the medicine that was hanging in the air. He held her cold and trembling hand with one hand and was about to pull out the needle above. Kristen suddenly pulled back her hand as if she had been shocked by electricity. The needle tilted and the blood that came out of the vein gradually dyed the needle red.
Marco’s face turned cold. He grabbed Kristen’s wrist and quickly pulled out the needle that had already fallen off. Blood gushed out from her veins. It was shocking. He pulled out a piece of tissue and pressed it on her wound. He only let go of it after the blood dried.
Looking at her swollen hand, Marco said, “Let’s go to another hospital.”
After that, he bent down and picked Kristen up.
What else could Kristen say? All of her resistance would show she was not obedient enough. Kristen pursed her lips tightly and calmed her breathing. She tried to suppress the emotions in her chest.
Antonio was in so much pain that he could not stand up. He could only watch Marco take Kristen away.
After leaving the hospital, Marco’s face instantly sank. Even the fake smile on his face was gone. “In the future, you are not allowed to see Antonio alone. You should stay away from those men who have a thing for you. If I find out that you have a relationship with him, it will not be as simple as breaking his hand.”
“Marco, can you stop it?” Marco suspected that Kristen had an affair with Antonio. What about the trending topic about him and Brenda?
Marco laughed in anger. Kristen might not know the look in Antonio’s eyes when he looked at her. That focused expression showed he definitely had feelings for her.
“When you recover, I will let you know if I will stop or not!”
Kristen felt how vicious he was. Her body stiffened as she leaned into Marco’s embrace. She changed the topic. “Where is my dad?”
“He is at the crematorium. Do you want to see him?”
Kristen had already seen her dad’s body. Did she want to see his ash too?
“I will choose my dad’s tomb myself.”
“Alright.” As long as Kristen was obedient, Marco would listen to her.
Marco sent Kristen to another clinic. The doctor saw Kristen and asked, “Do you want to do a full-body check?”
Marco found it troublesome. “There’s no need. She has already checked it at the city hospital before. It’s bleeding from the stomach. Just get us something for conditions like this.”
The city hospital was the best in Ratna City. It was clear that the wound was not serious. The doctor at the clinic followed Marco’s instructions, finished the admission procedures, and prescribed the medicine.
The cemetery that Kristen chose was next to her mother. In this life, other than loving himself, Darin loved his wife the most.
The funeral didn’t happen. After Darin was burned to ashes, he was buried. Kristen was weak and didn’t hurry to see him. When Kristen could stand up, she let Marco take her to the cemetery.
It had been raining non-stop in the city recently. Sometimes, it would be sunny. The other places had already begun to turn into summer. Only Ratna City was still as cold as ever.
Kristen thought that it would be sunny after the rain today, but she didn’t expect that it would start to fall halfway. The rain was getting fiercer and fiercer. The sound of the wind outside was endless. The raindrops kept hitting the front of the car. It sounded like they were going to smash the glass.
When they arrived at the cemetery, the rain began to let up. The driver got out of the car first, held an umbrella, and went to the back seat to open the door to keep the rain off Marco.
