In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1017

I felt like laughing. “You did many illegal things too.” As I spoke my words, I glanced at Boris. “Boris, there’s a pool at the rear house. Take this woman there and throw her into the pool.”

Dillan started flailing around madly, but he couldn’t do anything as he was pinned onto the ground by Joesph and the others. With his face touching the ground, he could only let out muffled screams in protest.

Boris took the woman to the rear house while the latter was crying and pleading for help from Dillan. Seeing how tears were flowing down Dillan’s cheeks as he felt powerless, I didn’t know why, but I felt amused as I smirked.

“Scarlett, do you really have to take it this far?” Ashton’s voice sounded from behind. His voice was low as usual with a tinge of surprise.

I didn’t want to explain, so I gave a brief reply. “He deserves this.”

The sound of water splashing and ear-piercing screams of the woman came from the rear house. Upon hearing this, Dillan’s eyes reddened with anger. “What do you guys want? Come at me and leave her alone!”

I felt amused as I looked at him. “Then what’s up with you laying your hands on those defenseless girls? You were merciless to those girls you drowned in the water tank. Dillan, it’s only been a few days, but it seems you’ve forgotten. Let me remind you. Your aquarium was dyed red with my blood. It’s only fair that your wife’s going to do the same to my swimming pool.”

The man stopped struggling as he collapsed on the ground and broke down in tears. Everyone had a weakness. No one was strong enough to care for only themselves.

He crawled in front of me and begged, “I was wrong. Come at me with whatever you want to do. Please don’t hurt my wife. She did nothing wrong. I beg of you, Ms. Stovall. Let my wife and the baby go. They knew nothing. I’ll accept everything you do to me. Just spare them.”

I pursed my lips and remained unbothered. Ashton glanced at Joseph. It was obvious that he was trying to hint at the latter to save the woman. However, I insisted, “Ashton, leave if you can’t agree with my doings, but you can’t stop me.”

He looked at me with a cold, yet helpless expression. “Scarlett, the pregnant woman is innocent and you know that well. I understand that your hatred and I won’t hinder you from doing whatever you want to him. However, I can’t sit by and just let you become someone evil like him. Stop now. The pregnant woman did nothing wrong.”

I pursed my lips and took in a deep breath. Looking at Dillan with determination, I announced, “Not only do I want your child’s life, I’m going to take your wife’s too. Everything that I have suffered, I’ll make sure you go through them too.”

Dillan broke down, while Ashton’s eyes narrowed and looked at me with a pain-etched face. “Scarlett, you…”
