When There Is Nothing Left But Love Chapter 1078


    As expected, he soon said in a low voice, “Ashton must be progressing well in A City.”


    His abrupt topic made me sat transfixed for a moment. Then, I frowned. “You can be straightforward


    with me, Mr. Murphy.”


    He snorted, “You know what I want. Scarlett, honestly, I like you a lot. My mother asked me about you a


    while back, talking about how your stomach will be bigger soon. She even asked me when I’ll be


    preparing for the wedding and when I’ll marry you. To be frank with you, if you’re meeker and more


    obedient, I’ll be more than willing to let you keep the baby. However, you’re too cheeky; you registered


    that girl, and you even adopted her. What you’ve done upsets me. Once I’m upset, I’m prone to do bad


    things. So, I’m sorry, I could not stop myself from getting rid of that baby in you. You won’t hate me for


    this, will you?”

    For a moment, his nonchnt tone made a murderous urge sprout in my mind. At that second, I


    wanted to strangle him to death; in seconds, I had already murdered him in a hundred ways in my


    mind.


    However, I did nothing but look at him, waiting for him to utter all those words I despised. However, he


    did not continue. “You don’t need to record what I’ve said. These things are useless to you. Scarlett, for


    me to be in my position, I can’t be a fool, so stop those pointless things you’re doing, okay?”


    My heart skipped a beat as I tensed. In the next second, I schooled my features to look calm. “What


    are you talking about? I don’t understand what you’re trying to tell me. I’m not doing anything pointless


    for those disgusting acts of yours. I know karma wille for you soon.”


    He raised a brow at my reply before rising to his feet. Walking to my side, he leaned his face closer to


    mine as he smiled menacingly.


    When I saw his bony fingers reaching toward me, I could not help but hold my breath. Swiftly, he


    removed my earpiece and mocked, “Don’t worry. I won’t do anything to you. There isn’t any need for


    you to wear these unnecessary things. It’ll only affect our conversation.”


    With that said, he threw it out of the window. My mouth was set in a hard line, feeling rage boiling in my


    gut, but still, I looked at him calmly.


    He soon returned to his chair. “I know you hate me, but that’s fine. If I can’t get you to love me, it’ll be


    equally thrilling to have you hate me. You shouldn’t me me for what happened to the kid; you should


    be ming yourself. If you didn’t appear, no one will do anything to you. But, Scarlett, you were too


    stupid to save someone who’spletely unrted to you. That’s why your kid’s dead. This is the


    ending you’ve brought upon yourself, and the only thing you can me this on is how you’ve stuck your


    nose into someone else’s business.”


    “Shut up!” I roared. “Armond, have you never thought about how you’ll end up? I used to think that


    you’re a gentleman, but boy was I horribly wrong. You’re a scum that has no morals nor principles. No


    one will ever love you. You want that box, don’t you? I’m going to tell you now that I’ll never give it to


    you. I’d rather burn the box myself than hand it to you, so stop thinking of getting it. I want to see you


    destroy the Murphy family and yourself.”


    Unfortunately, it seemed like he was not as angry with my words as I was with his. His gaze on me


    remained tranquil, but it took him a while before he said, “Scarlett, you know I don’t want to do anything


    bad to you. I hope you’ll be good and give me the things I want. That way, I won’t hurt you or those that


    you’re concerned about. If not, I can’t guarantee your and their safety. You must be curious about what


    this vi is for. Have you heard of a snake’s nest? I’ve loved them since young, but my grandfather did


    not like them. So, I could only secretly keep them. The third floor is where they reside. If I press on the


    switch, those upstairs will be together with my pets. As for whether they’ll live or die, I won’t know. After


    all, I’m not quite sure whether those pets I have are venomous or not.”


    My eyes were wide as I stared at him in disbelief. “Armond, you shameless man!”


    He nodded in agreement. “I, too, think of myself as shameless. But Nora’s with me. Say, why do you


    think she loves me that much? At the start of our rtionship, we didn’t like each other that much, and I


    never have any romantic feelings toward her. Why is she enamoured with me?”


    My hands clenched into fists as I scavenged through my brain for what I should do. I knew nothing


    about how many snakes Armond had kept. Since young, I was deadly afraid of these soft creatures. I


    was not sure whether we could escape the ce in time if those creatures were released. If the worse


    did happen, he could easily dismiss his responsibility in the matter by iming that it had only been an


    ident. All he needed to do was pay for the medical fees and remove the snakes. He would lose


    nothing in this.
