Chapter 1909: Let Him End ItN?velDrama.Org content rights.
Athena lunged forward, the bottle in her hand already open. Just as she was about to ssh sulfuric acid onto Luther''s
handsome face, Joyce sensed something was wrong. She tried to push Luther away, shouting, "Be careful, get back!"
But evidently, it was toote.
Just as Joyce felt despair creeping in, someone acted faster than her. Christian seized Athena''s wrist as she was about to
commit the act. With a forceful twist, the highly concentrated sulfuric acid turned, its colorless liquid sshing entirely onto
Athena herself, and sttering onto his own hand, causing a sizzling sound.
Cecelia acted swiftly, rushing to cover Alisha''s eyes. In the next moment, she had already taken Alisha from Luther''s embrace,
holding Alisha tightly, "I''ll take the child out first."
After speaking, she quickly dashed out of the basement. Children shouldn''t witness such a bloody scene.
Numb from long-term drug use, Athena stood still for several seconds before emitting a piercing scream of agony. Almost all the
sulfuric acid had sshed onto her, especially her once proud delicate face, including her eyes.
“Ahh, it hurts, it hurts!" she cried miserably, feeling her entire body burning as if it was melting. "My eyes, my eyes can''t see! My
face, my God, my face is melting! Save me, someone save me, who will save me!"
She copsed to the ground, writhing in agony, devoid of any strength, rolling on the floor in pain. Although she wanted to die,
she had never thought of dying in such excruciating agony. She was especially afraid of pain, otherwise, she wouldn''t have
constantly increased her dosage of painkillers.
She never dreamt that Christian, who had cherished her since she was little, would ultimately be the one to destroy her. Christian
looked coldly at the immensely suffering Athena, feeling no pity in his heart. She hadmitted so many wrongdoings, and now
she was reaping what she had sown. Since the mistake began with him, it was only right that he should end it.
The scene happened too quickly, almost endangering Luther. Joyce, watching Athena writhing in pain on the ground, felt
lingering fear, her back drenched in cold sweat. If it wasn''t for Christian''s timely intervention, the one suffering at this moment
would have been Luther. Athena was downright psychotic; if she couldn''t have something, she wanted to destroy it, which was
truly terrifying.
Seeing Christian''s burned hand, Joyce whispered, hastily grabbing Christian''s wrist, "You''re injured!"
"It''s nothing." Christian broke free, his facial expression unchanged despite the intense pain he was experiencing.
At this moment, the back of his hand was burned beyond recognition by the sulfuric acid, impossible to recover. But he had no
regrets; the scars he would carry in the future would serve as a constant reminder of the mistakes he had made.
Waving his hand, he said, "All of you leave, I''ll handle this."
Athena had already fainted, lying motionless on the ground. Her face was no longer human-like, grotesque and terrifying, her
body in shambles.
Luther frowned, asking, "What are you going to do with her?"
Christian turned away, "She won''t survive. With the deep-seated drug addiction and extensive burns, not even the gods can save
her... for the sake of the many years of brother-sister affection, | will give her a merciful death. All of you leave, | will take care of
this, she won''t harm you anymore."
"Okay." Luther gathered Joyce to his side. "Let''s go, don''t look, it''s not suitable for a pregnant woman to see such a sight."
Joyce was somewhat worried about Christian but still allowed Luther to pull her away. Felix and Vicki followed suit.
After leaving the basement, Felix couldn''t help but ask Vicki, "Given your understanding of Christian, do you think he will save
Athena?"
Vicki shook her head, "Impossible. Once Christian makes a promise, he will definitely keep it. | guess he will use euthanasia to
ease Athena''s suffering. It''s his final act of kindness."
Felix sighed, "Actually, | don''t hate Christian. Even though we''ve be estranged, he''s a loyal man, a victim. Well, it''s all in the
past, it''s meaningless to dwell on it."
Vicki looked back, "It seems that from now on, the Bard family will fade from people''s view."
"Ohl" Felix suddenly remembered something and shouted to Luther and Joyce ahead, "Wait, Kiki and Westbrook are still inside,
we need to get them out! The two children must be terrified.”
Luther nced back at Felix, "You''re remembering now, when it''s toote. When weentered the basement, Aldis had already
taken the two children away. They''re probably in the hospital by now."
Felix caught up with Luther and suddenly punched Luther''s back, "You''ve kept this a secret too well. Do you know how worried |
was? My wife, my child, they were all in there!"
"Aren''t they mine too? My wife, my
two children, | naturally want them to
bepletely safe. W. Isewould |
soi it rong? arony us. it''s you who
can''t keep calm." Luther shot a
sidelong nce at Felix. "What''s
wrong with not telling you? Consider
it a test of the unwavering love
between you two." Please read the

"What did you say? | can''t keep calm?
Me? Are you sure you''re talking about
me? Don''t forget, it was me aged
the recor ef, to glen your
mhidtirtd rstanding with your
sister-inw just now. If it weren''t for
me, could you have exined it to
her?" Felix was indignant. "Also, the
feelings between Vicki and me don''t
need to be tested!!" Please read the

"The truth will speak for itself. I''ve already thanked you. Besides, if you hadn''t lost the recorder, would | have been
misunderstood by Christian for so many years?" Luther was equally blunt. "Can''t even take care of your own things."
"What? You''re actually ming me! Wasn''t it you who provoked Athena?" Felix eximed.
"| provoked her? Who insisted on taking me to Christian''s seaside vi for vacation? Otherwise, | wouldn''t have met Athena! It''s
all because you''re so fond of ying around." Luther retorted.
"Fine. You''re amazing, it''s all my fault, alright?!" Felix was trembling with anger.
Vicki intervened, pulling Felix away. "Stop arguing. We''ve finally made it through a difficult situation today, and here you are,
arguing with each other."
Joyceughed and pulled Vicki aside, "Let them argue. Men are always boys at heart. They''re not really fighting. Perhaps the
stress was too much just now, and this is their way of releasing it. Let them go."
Vicki rolled her eyes, "So childish."
As the group returned to the foot of
