Chapter 70 Terrified


    Nearby, several other people burst into tears as they followed the bed, which was being


    pushed toward the elevator.


    Matthew looked at the frail woman in his arms and said in a cold tone, “Come out right now,


    Nics.”


    He was furious at how Nics had scared poor Elizabeth.


    Asmanded, Nics walked out proudly. When he saw the scene in front of him,


    raised an eyebrow at the woman who had passed out in Matthew’s arms.


    he


    “She made me suffer, so I just wanted to give her a scare. I didn’t realize that she was so


    weak.” He shrugged.


    Leonard gave him a punch on the shoulder.


    “So, Kev, what’s it like to be drugged with an animal’s aphrodisiac? I think you can give it a


    go-with Spotty now,” Leonard teased with a snicker.


    Nics whipped his head toward Leonard, his face darkened. He started punching Leonard


    in anger.


    Leonard quickly tried to escape. “I’m just joking, Kev! Stop punching me!” he shouted as he


    ran away.


    However, Nics did not listen to him at all as he continued chasing after Leonard. It was


    only after a few more punches that he stopped. Both he and Leonard then stood by the elevator


    and pressed the button.


    Matthew walked over while canying Elizabeth in his arms. He still had a cold look on his


    face. Nics pursed his lips, for he did not dare to piss Matthew off.


    Matthew was funding hisboratory, so if the former decided to stop his funds, Nics


    would be dead.


    Therefore, Nics moved aside to make way for Matthew. “I was only trying to scare her a


    little, Matt.”


    Matthew nced at him and said, “Get lost.”


    Upon speaking, he walked into the elevator. The other two men did not dare to follow him


    into it. Leonard looked at Nics.


    “I believe you now,” Leonard said.


    Nics smiled. “I told you. Lizzy is the harbinger of misfortune. Whoever meets her will


    definitely have an unlucky day.”


    “Looks like you’re the only one who is unlucky.”


    To which, Nics sighed. “Seems like it. Both you and Matt are always fine.”


    When Elizabeth finally woke up, she found that she was in a car. She


    straightened her back, whipping her head left and right.


    “Was I dreaming just now?” she asked herself.


    sprung up and


    Elizabeth lightly pped her face. It would be best if it truly had been just a dream.


    However, when she noticed the handsome man sitting next to her, she realized that it had not


    been a dream after all.

    Her face fell as she sighed forlornly.


    “Matthew, Nics’s dead, right? Are you going to send me to the police? Please take care of


    my three kids for me.” As she spoke, she reached out and grabbed his aim, shaking it.


    “Don’t worry. Just wait for me to be released, and I’ll serve you for the rest of my life,” she


    promised.


    Matthew nced at her. “That sounds good,” he replied calmly.


    Elizabeth sank back into her seat, having lost all of her energy. She was just waiting for the


    final verdict to arrive.


    However, when the car finally came to a stop, she realized that she was not at the police


    station. In fact, Elizabeth found herself in front of her own house.


    Her


    eyes brightened, but it soon dulled.


    “Are you allowing me to see my family for thest time?” she asked sadly.


    She did not know how to tell her three kids about what happened. If they knew, they would definitely be


    devastated.


    Elizabeth felt sorry for them. She had given birth to them but was unable to give them at father figure.


    Now, she was not even going to be by their side as they grew up. She felt like a


    failure.


    At that thought, tears started rolling down her cheeks.


    Noticing her sad expression, Matthew furrowed his eyebrows. “Elizabeth, you really love


    jumping to conclusions. Nics isn’t dead.”


    Elizabeth wiped away her tears. “You don’t need tofort me. A life for a life, it’s always


    been that way. I understand. I’m not afraid.” She sniffed.


    Not afraid? She’s even crying about it. What a stubborn woman, Matthew thought.


    Once she finished speaking, she stopped crying. She was doing her best to stop her tears


    from falling, but she was still very sad as she kept sniffling.


    Matthew had never seen such a crybaby. He could not believe that his heart felt like it was


    being torn to pieces from the sight of her tears.


    In a split second, his long fingers reached out and grabbed her chin. Matthew leaned toward


    her, and if Elizabeth moved even the slightest, their lips would touch. That action alone


    frightened her to the point where she did not even dare to breathe.
