Chapter 743
A bitter smile appeared on Micah''s handsome face. Indeed, he should be held ountable for the
child''s death. If ending him could let her live happily and safely for the rest of her life without
resentment, he would be d to give up his life.
Ding!
A metallic shing sound echoed throughout the room as Micah pulled a dagger from the torture tools
and shoved it into Shannon''s hand.
“End me! End me and you''ll be free. You will get to avenge your child too.”
Hatred and resentment filled her eyes. She suddenly snatched the dagger and fiercely stabbed it into
his chest. A patch of crimson red gradually spread across. She bit her lip tightly as tears blurred her
vision.
“Micah, I really wish I could take you with me to meet Eugene to atone for your sins.”
Micah reached out and gently touched her cold, stern face.
Tearing up as he said, “Don''t hesitate then. Just stab the dagger straight in. Pierce it through my heart
and end my life.”
A ruthless glint flitted across Shannon''s eyes, and with a slight flick of her wrist, the tip of the dagger
went in a bit further. She was an assassin, and she knew precisely how much force was needed to
pierce through a human''s heart. This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
Now, all she had to do was thrust a few centimeters forward, and that would be the end of him. Just
then, memories of the past shed before her eyes. Those sweet moments were like sharp des
stabbing her heart, leaving her bleeding profusely.
In an instant, it felt as if arge hand was gripping her neck, her breathing became rapid. As she
watched the blood continuously gush out from his chest, her body began to quiver violently. She could
not bring herself to end his life. In the end, she just could not do it.
Even if there was only hatred left between them, she would not wish to end him like this.
“Micah, you''ve won.”
She abruptly let go of the handle of the dagger and pushed him away with one hand. Then she turned
and walked toward the door.
“It''s easy to die, but what''s difficult is living a life worse than death. I''m still struggling in pain and agony,
so why should you be free from all these? Micah, this world is so cold. You should stay with me and let
this hatred consume you.”
As thest word fell, her silhouette vanished into the doorway. Micah reached out and pulled the
dagger from his chest, causing the blood to drip from the wound. Bearing the intense pain, he took
several steps back and fell directly onto the chair behind him. With his head hanging low, he looked at
his own bloody chest, and his thin lips could not help but curl into a bitter smile. At this point, he knew
that their rtionship was going nowhere. All he could do for the rest of his life was to protect her and
care for her so that his love for her would be worthy.
In the main hall of the Fletcher residence at Dellmoor, Ynda poured a cup of coffee and handed it to
Tamara.
“Please have a try.”
Tamara took it with a smile, and she seemed very pleased with how well-mannered Ynda was.
“You''re indeed the daughter of the renowned hypnosis master, Josiah. Your upbringing is no less than
those youngdies with prestigious backgrounds. If I had a nephew, I would definitely matchmake you.”
Ynda smiled gently and teased, “You don''t have a nephew, but you have a son. If you don''t mind,
you can matchmake Mr. Raiden and me.”
Tamara was momentarily stunned, but as she finally grasped the meaning behind Ynda''s words, a
smile gradually spread across her face.
“Do you mean you''re fond of my son?” Ynda nodded and replied, “I don''t know if I''m blessed enough
to be your daughter-inw. The Gibson family may not be prestigious, but we have a profound
background and skills that are passed down from generation to generation. We''ve produced many
renowned hypnosis skills. My father even created the dream-tailoring skill and became famous
internationally. Over the years, numerous talented young men havee to our family to propose
marriages.”
Tamara burst intoughter. “Ynda, if you''re fond of my son, I''d be more than happy to arrange this
marriage. However, that boy is quite stubborn. If you want me to make it happen, you must first
aplish something, such as curing his father. Only then I can persuade him to marry you.”
A hint of joy appeared on Ynda''s face. The night before, she had studied hypnosis and dream-
tailoring skill once again. She hadbined the two and discovered a new breakthrough. She believed
that she would definitely seed this time.
“Mrs. Fletcher, don''t worry. I''m confident that after we do another hypnosis session, Mr. Fletcher will
wake up feeling refreshed and no longer troubled by stress.”
“All right. It''s a deal then. I really adore you, girl. I''d be pleased if you can marry into the Fletcher family
in the future.”
Of course, the most important thing was to put an end to Raiden''s intention of marrying Bailey. Tamara
would not mind anyone marrying Raiden as long as it was not Bailey. At the same time, Raiden was
sittingfortably on the sofa and working in the study.
Right then, the door to the study opened, and a housekeeper quietly sneaked in. “Mr. Fletcher, Ms.
Gibson is preparing for the second hypnosis session, and they''re heading toward the bedroom.”
Raiden''s fingers paused slightly on the keyboard. With a wave of his arm, he picked up the phone from
the coffee table, found a series of numbers, and wrote a text message:
Proceed ording to the n. Right now.
Two minutester, the other party replied with a message:
Mr. Fletcher, I''ve given him the medicine.
Raiden looked at the message on the screen as his thin lips slightly curved into a smirk.
Bailey certainly has more ideas. I can never think of such a solution that can get everything solved
once and for all.
Inside the bedroom, Ynda squatted by the bed and said to Sloan, who was sitting cross-legged on
the bed, “Please try to clear your mind as much as possible. After ourst attempt, I''ve already found
the key to sess. Don''t worry. After this hypnosis session, your stress will surely be reduced. When
you wake up, you''ll feel refreshed and rejuvenated.”
Sloan nodded.
“All right.”
Just when Ynda was about to start, Tamara suddenly reached out to stop her.
“Ynda, remember our deal. As long as you can cure his sickness, I''ll fulfill my promise. With my
support, you will be halfway to sess.”
“Okay.”
Ynda stood up and sat down across Sloan. With her palms facing upward, she waspletely
immersed in her task in no time. The medicine specially made by Bailey took effect as soon as a
person''s consciousness was controlled.
Hence, in less than three seconds, Sloan''s body began to tremble violently. Such an unexpected
reaction came so quickly that Ynda waspletely dumbfounded.
“Mr. Fletcher, what''s wrong? W-Why are you trembling so much?”
As her words fell, she turned her head to look at the anxious Tamara by the bedside.
“M-Mrs. Fletcher, does Mr. Fletcher have other hidden illnesses like epilepsy?”
Tamara''s face suddenly turned ashen, and she chided angrily, “What nonsense are you talking about?
Hurry up and stop the hypnosis. Can''t you see his body is rejecting it?”
After saying that, Tamara immediately rushed to the bedside and reached out to embrace her husband
who was trembling vigorously.
“Sloan, what''s wrong with you? Don''t scare me, please. Don''t scare me.”
Sloan trembled violently for a while and then fell stiffly backward. Tamara was terrified. She stared
nkly at him as he copsed onto the bed. Then she watched his pupils dte continuously and his
legs start to twitch.
“Please, call the doctor quickly. Bring them here right away.” Ynda stared nkly at her own hands,
shaking her head vigorously.
“It wasn''t me. I didn''t do it. He''s sick. There''s something wrong with him.”
