Chapter 910
“Mel!” Adina‘s pupils shrank, and she quickly rushed to catch Melody. But she was still a second too late. The girl‘s head slammed against the nightstand, and she instantly fell unconscious.
Adina cradled the child. She was beyond furious.
When Adina looked up, Earl had drawn a handgun from his waist.
“Adina, she may be your daughter, but she is only a tool for me to control you. If that tool tries to bite me, then she‘s just asking for death!”
The barrel of the gun was pointed right between Melody‘s brows.
Adina‘s anger surged like a tidal wave. She took deep breaths nonstop and kept convincing herself to calm down so that she would not end up charging at Earl.
Adina closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her eyes were calm and sober. “Earl, let my child go, and I will leave with you. Otherwise...”
She reached behind her waist and took out a bright dagger.
“Otherwise, my corpse is the only thing you‘re going to get.”
Earl‘s eyes darkened. “How many knives are you hiding?”
once,” Adina said slowly, “but I was afraid that after my death, my children would no longer know a mother‘s love, so I hung onto the hope that I would get lucky and escape. But I only just realized that having a mother like me is their greatest misfortune. They can only have normal lives once I‘m dead...”
As she spoke, she pressed the blade down little by little.
A line of blood immediately formed on her pale and delicate neck. “If you die, I‘ll bury the four brats with you,” Earl said darkly. To his surprise, Adina immediately opened her arms and laid her child on the carpet.
She stood up with the knife still pressed to her neck. “I already want to die, why would I still care about these things? After I die, and you kill my children, it would just reunite our family in the underworld. I would even thank you for it.”
Her blade cut a bit deeper, and beads of blood began to drip down.
