Chapter 1120 Return To The Original Intention
Chapter 1120 Return to the Original Intention
Eve wasn't unwilling to speak, but she was really trembling and can't get the words out, as if Casper lying on the ground behind her had turned into a corpse and she was the culprit!
Lauren was a person who never stopped once he started, and he was determined to see things through. Holding onto Eve, he continued speaking,
"Eve, whether you come here today or not, if you insist, I will still do as you requested. But is this really what you want?"
The sentence seemed to flip a switch in Eve's brain, and she suddenly shook her head violently, gripping Lauren's collar tightly with both hands.
She didn't care anymore. No matter how much her sister demanded, no matter what Casper might do in the future, she cannot accept a living being dying at her hands. This was not right! Lauren's gaze finally changed, but not his Eve.
Lucia also breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. To be honest, she was really afraid that Eve would give another answer, which could potentially change the future of her and Lauren. Turning his head, Arthur was looking at her with a slightly smug expression as if to say, "See, my way was right, wasn't it?" Lucia felt inexplicably annoyed by him and punched his arm playfully, leaving Arthur both laughing and bewildered.
"Okay, okay." The answer had been obtained. Lauren's voice softened as he continued to pat and soothe Eve's back.
"It's over." After speaking, he turned around and walked back to where Arthur and Lucia were standing, holding onto Eve. The light around them dimmed again, but Eve felt a bright light shining in her heart. "Sorry," Lucia said apologetically as she saw Eve's pale face, which clearly showed that she was still shaken from the experience.
"It's that Arthur and I didn't tell you in advance."
Before, Eve did not understand the intention behind Lucia and Arthur's actions. But now she knew, and not only did she not blame them, but she also felt extremely grateful in her heart.
"No, I should be thanking you. If you hadn't brought me here today, maybe... I would have regretted it for the rest of my life."
If she didn't come today, and Casper was privately executed by Lauren, Eve could imagine that every night of her long life in the future, she would have nightmares.
"It's good you figured it out," Arthur glanced at Eve. This time his eyes were not so cold. "Lauren is not a simple person. He has the ability to do anything you can imagine, so every time you say something, and every decision you make is not only related to yourself, but also related to him. Only if you can keep your heart, he will not make mistakes."
After listening to Arthur's words, Eve was deeply moved. She remembered that Lauren had warned her before about the consequences of taking action and how she had only thought about helping her sister at the time without considering his position. Eve tightly grasped Lauren's hand and with tears in her eyes. She said,
"Lauren, I'm sorry."
Lauren was a little annoyed with Arthur's unilateral decision-making, but now he really wanted to thank him immediately.
"No need to say sorry. I'm willing to do everything." At this moment, Lauren was deeply affectionate, and he didn't mind the presence of Arthur and Lucia. Following the voice in his heart, he bent down and kissed Eve's forehead softly.
Finally, Eve's face was no longer pale, but turned red at a visible speed.
After calming down a bit, Eve remembered to ask Lauren,
"But... you've kidnap Casper. What should you do now?"
"Even if I didn't say yes to you before, I'm going to make Casper suffer a little bit sooner or later." Because Casper scared his Eve, Lauren said,
"Now that Arthur and Lucia are here, I'll leave the rest to them." Today, he just gave Casper some lessons on the flesh and blood, which was already extremely merciful to Lauren.
Upon hearing this, Eve couldn't help but look at Lucia and Arthur. In fact, she knew in her heart that for whatever reason, they had already helped or let her sister go many times.
Grateful words were welling up in Eve's throat, but she couldn't say them. She owed too much and couldn't give back in return. The words of gratitude felt unreal and she just couldn't bring herself to say them.
"Shall I?" Arthur turned to Lucia and asked.
"Let me do it. Actually, I want to use this opportunity to teach Nia a lesson..." Lucia abruptly stopped herself, for she had forgotten that Eve might care about it.
"Ms. Webb, it's okay. You don't have to worry about me,"said Eve.
At this moment, her sense of right and wrong was very clear in her mind.
After nodding at Eve, Lucia turned to Lauren and said, "You take Eve and the others go. I'll handle things here."
"I'll arrange the follow-up," Arthur said immediately.
"Let Kane do it. Don't let Casper get suspicious," Lucia cautioned.
"Well, I'll leave when the others arrive," Arthur said with a slight smile.
Lauren called his subordinates over and gave them some orders before they obediently left. Lauren then got into his car with Eve and left, but not before reminding Lucia,
"Casper's injuries are not severe enough. Lucia, you can add some more."
Lucia was overjoyed, and said with a smile, "Those whips are enough for him. I'm afraid I will hit him too hard."
Killing him was not enough to appease the hatred in her heart. Lucia kept this sentence in her heart.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
After nodding at Lucia, Lauren drove away while Arthur was on the phone with Kane. Lucia thought for a moment and then took out her phone to contact Miles. When she hung up, she realized that Arthur had already finished his call and was standing next to her.
"Go in, or head back to the car?" At this point, only Arthur and Lucia remained in the abandoned estate. Arthur glanced around at the shabby and dirty surroundings before asking her.
"Let's go in, what if Casper wakes up?" Lucia smiled and said.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to control yourself and beat him to death." Arthur pinched Lucia's face and said half-jokingly.
"I did have this idea... It's so remote here. Burying him wouldn't be difficult," Lucia's emotions were complex, but in front of Arthur she was still able to smile lightly.
"However, I would prefer him to stand trial and let everyone know the crimes he has committed, and be punished by the law."
As long as he stood on the trial seat, the death penalty was inevitable, so why dirty his hands.
"Good." Arthur smiled and the simple word carried his concern for Lucia.
Lucia pulled Arthur inside where Lauren had prepared a tea table. As they walked, Lucia laughed.
"But if he wakes up later, I won't be soft when I knock him out again!"
