Lucius's face turned cold.
"She dares? She would love to sleep with me every night and now, I finally agree to go to bed with her, she would be happy."
"But she went too far this time. It will take another eight months for you to give birth. You can't let her threaten you everywhere. It's better to teach her a lesson in advance."
A hint of pride flashed in her eyes and it quickly changed into an innocent one.
"I heard, master in martial art break their vows and return to secular life for the sake of their loved ones. So, who are you doing this for, Lucius?"
The icy cold pool water drowned me and a piercing chill soaked through my limbs and bones.
In that moment, I heard my almost suffocating heartbeat.
Lucius smiled and affectionately scraped the tip of her nose.
"You clearly know, but you still ask me?"
The girl kept shaking his arm, causing his regular breathing in turmoil
"Then, why did you agree to marry Rachelle?"
"If you don't tell me, I won't eat tonight and your baby will starve to death."
Lucius sighed deeply after losing the heated conversation.
"Since the world doesn't allow it and outsiders don't accept it, I can't show off my true lover."
"I want to protect her. Rachelle has a good nature and for me, she is the best choice."
His calm and peaceful gaze for many years, were filled with turbulent waves at this moment.
"So, she has to be good, so we can't be discovered by others, okay?"
The piercing words pierced through my heart one by one.
I couldn't tell whether my body hurt more or my heart hurt more.
The memories chasing after him gradually blurred.
I thought we were childhood sweethearts, I thought our love was a bond, but in the end, it was nothing but a lie to cover up his true feelings.
It was ridiculous that I had been waiting him for twenty-eight years and my only wish was to make him leave the martial arts and live an ordinary life with me.
The young man who promised me in front of God that he would never let me down was eventually lost in my memory.
The tense nerves suddenly snapped and blood kept gushing out from under my body.
Lucius finally realized something was wrong and angrily shouted at the bodyguard beside him.
"What are you waiting for? Go bring her out!"
"If anything happens to her, you don't have to work anymore!"
In unconsciousness, the cold body fell into a warm embrace.
The sandalwood scent lingered at my nose and I seemed to have returned to the time before he entered martial arts world.
But as soon as I opened my eyes, the dream was over.
I was moved to the guest room, where Lucius was sitting beside the bed.
His face was filled with a chill as if a storm was about to come.
"Why didn't you tell me it hurt? Did you know your corpus luteum was ruptured? If you were a step later, you would have died!"
"Rachelle, when will your bad temper change? I don't have time to guess your thoughts every day. I'm really tired of you doing this."
Ignoring his words, I turned my head around the room.
When it was first renovated, this room was originally intended to be used to store miscellaneous items and it was no different from a rough draft.
I didn't expect I would be the first person to move in now.
I smirked from the corner of my lips and didn't even glance at him.
"Ah, are you tired? Don't worry, it will be as you wish soon."
"Don't waste your time acting with me, go and spend time with your little lover."
I struggled to sit up and knocked over all the medicine he had brought me at the bedside.
"This is the villa I bought, I don't need you to play the master."
"If you don't take Noella and get out, the next ones to be beaten will be you."
Lucius was completely enraged. He immediately stood up and yelled at me.
"Enough! Do you have to be so aggressive?"
