Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 116

Chapter 116 He Loves You Most 

I closed my eyes as I refused to look at her mocking smile. 

I knew that she already knew everything by then. 

A normal person like Jill could easily figure out my condition. Even someone like Lily, who was not exactly normal, could figure it out as long as she was not clueless. 

“No wonder you wear wigs. You’ve started chemotherapy, haven’t you? Must be dying soon, huh?” 

“Now I know why you haven’t been going to work. And you asked for all that money… Cancer treatments. are expensive, aren’t they?” 

She ran her fingers over the scar on my chest, and I froze, not daring to move. 

“Oh, you’ve had two surgeries? The cancer relapsed? How are you even still alive?” 

*No, Eva, you can’t die yet. Not until I leave the country. At least wait until then. You really are my perfect 

little Eva.” 

With a twisted grin, she began fastening the buttons of my shirt, one by one. There was a crazed look in 

her eyes. 

“Eva, I don’t just want money anymore. I want Leonard to live with guilt for the rest of his life. 

“When your cancer came back, he was with me. And he was right by my side while you were in surgery 

She laughed. “Was it when you were going through chemotherapy that he tried to help me by suggesting we kill your dog?” 

I kept my eyes closed, refusing to look at her. She had completely lost her mind. 

But she had a point. Everything she said was true. And if Leonard ever found out… 

I had no idea how he’d react, but the guilt would destroy him, so I’d rather not tell him the truth. I didn’t want him to feel guilty. 

Lily softened her attitude toward me, probably because she knew I was dying. 

When the delivery guy brought food over, she even fed me some oatmeal. 

“After you’ve eaten, call Leonard. Tell him I want 50 million, or else you’ll die.” 

“No, wait. Tell him if he doesn’t pay, I’ll start cutting off your fingers, toes, and ears. That way, you’ll die a little slower. How does that sound?” 

I wasn’t enjoying the oatmeal. But I needed the energy to make an escape. 

The delivery guy piled a bunch of rocks in front of the door. 

He asked, “Lily, what are these rocks for?” 

Lily waved him off, stepping back in disgust as she swallowed some pills with water. 

“They’re to block the door to ensure no one can enter. Let her help stack the rocks.” 

Once everything was set up, she kicked a phone over to me. 

“Give Leonard a call. 

banking details. 

Tell him I want 50 million transferred to my overseas bank account. He has my

should thank him for it,” She said sarcastically. 

When the call connected, the delivery guy quickly put it on speaker and relayed 

Lily’s demands. 

Lily added before the call ended, “I don’t want to be a fugitive. Go online and clear my name. Tell everyone you made up all those lies.” 

“You’ve got one hour, or I’ll cut off Eva’s pinky and mail it to you.” 

“Lily! If you dare touch her…” Leonard’s voice boomed through the speaker, but Lily hung up quickly. 

“Watch out on the timing, so the police can’t trace it.”
