His hand was shaking and he became soft.
Venus didn’t dare to look at Henry, who instead looked at Kerry’ s hand. He should be painful, for his hand gripping the sofa had turned pale.
“Young master, hold on. I’m going to take the glass out.”
With medical forceps in hand, he was still hesitating.
Kerry looked at him, ordering, “What are you waiting for? Do it!”
“I’m afraid that I will make you painful.” Henry murmured.
Kerry really wanted to kick his ass, “Do it now.”
Henry swallowed and got the forceps near his flesh.
“Ah!” Kerry moaned, frightening Henry, who stopped.
“Continue.” Kerry yelled.
Henry had no choice but to do it. Soon, he got one out and tossed it into the basin, the blood of which spread.
Venus could see his arm trembling because of the pain, whose fingers turned more pale. Then she suddenly came to hold his hand with her small hand.
Kerry frightened for a moment and then turned to look at Venus with surprise in his eyes.
However, Venus was cold and indifferent, “It’s just because you saved me. Don’t think too much.”
Kerry held her small hand in his, entwining his fingers with hers, saying with a trembling voice, “You are my wife, of course I would save you.”
What Kerry said shocked John, who almost dropped the tray in his hands. Was he mad? How could Yan Chu be his wife? It should be Venus.
“I didn’t ask you to save me.” Venus didn’t appreciate him at all, not looking at his painful and burning eyes.
Kerry forced a smile, “Yes, I made a fool of myself. But I couldn’t leave you alone. If anything happened to you, I would forever lose my wife.”
“Mr. Ye, there are so many women around you, so why me? Wasn’t there an actress who fell for you the other day?” Venus didn’t notice that she was jealous.
“But I only want you. No matter how other women are, I just can’t love them.”
Listening to his gross words of love, she got goosebumps. There were still two men here and how was able to say this without blushing? She glared at him, “When the hell did you know that?”
“From the moment you returned to Sky City. I’ve always suspected, but I have no proof. Venus, no matter how much a person’s face changes, her habits and demeanor will never change. You’ve shown too many flaws.” Kerry frowned because of the pain and looked down at Henry, who had taken out the third piece of glass, “Until that night, when I held a party. Xuan Chu sneaked into my study.”
“You knew it was him?” Venus was shocked.
“I didn’t know at that time, but later on, I’ve found out.”
John was shocked about their conversation, staring straight at Venus’ s face. It was hard for him to accept this fact.
Venus snorted, “I think you must have used your superpower to run into my room at night, right? Kerry, it’s too despicable.”
Kerry was explaining, “No, how could I do that before I was sure of your identity? It was that night you called Xuan Chu in your room, when I was delivering fish soup to you. I heard it at the door.”
It was actually herself who had revealed the secret, whose expression became very odd, but then she thought that since he had known for so long, he still pretended not to know it. It was too much for him to watch herself and Xuan Chu act as siblings.
Venus got angry, trying to shake off his hand, but he held it tightly, “Kerry, since you know who I am, why are you pretending not to know anything? Do you think I’m stupid when you’re watching the show?”
At that moment, the fifth piece of glass was thrown into the basin.
Venus grabbed the sharp knife and stared blankly at Kerry, who was with a calm face. Was he serious?
“Young lady, you…”
“Shut up!” Kerry snapped, stopping Henry from speaking, “Both of you get out.”
“Young master!” John shouted, full of worry.
“Get out! Don’t come in before I call you.”
John and Henry looked at each other, hesitating for a moment, and went out of the living room.
“Alright, you can do it right now. After you do this, then our grudge will end.” Kerry looked at her calmly. Of course, he didn’t want to die, but if he wanted Venus to forgive him, he had to gamble with his life, for he believed that she still had some feeling for him. Otherwise, even if she pretended to be Yan Chu, there wouldn’t be the love in her eyes.
The knife trembled slightly in her hand. Venus took a deep breath and looked at Kerry with cold eyes, “This is what you said. When you get to hell, don’t blame me.”
“I won’t blame you. I owe you and I should pay it back.”
Venus gripped the knife, once all sorts of things in her mind like slides constantly flashing. The moment when she was humiliated, tortured almost to death, and her brother was kicked into the sea all came to her. When the hatred was about to overcome her, she suddenly remembered that he risked his life to save her. In the morning, in order to drag her out of the shelf, he even ignored his own injury and blooding. Also, he carried her down from the 19th floor… She stopped when the knife already touched the shirt…
Why? Why did she think so much? As long as she stabbed him, she could get rid of him forever. And then tell the silver-faced man that he had died in the earthquake, but why, she hesitated?
She shouldn’t have mercy on him. He had treated her so bad in the past and he was the one who killed her brother. She could never forgive him because of this trivial thing. Then she would look down upon herself.
Also, she didn’t believe he wouldn’t dodge it.
Thinking of this, she raised her hand again.
