Chapter 708
“Had you not helped them in the dark, they wouldn’t have pushed Grandma down and comatose her! Odell wouldn’t have misunderstood me and he wouldn’t have broken my leg. Tara wouldn’t have gotten the chance to push me down the lake!”
“I just want to let you know Odell doesn’t really love you. He hurt you because of Tara. He cared only about Tara even after your second marriage. I just want you to leave him!” Thomas took a deep breath and continued,” Grandma’s incident is beyond me. I know I’ve hurt her and I admit I was the one who ushered Tara to push you down the lake, but it’s under my control. I won’t let you die!”
Sylvia had no intention to argue with him about his meticulous scheme. She went along with his words and said, “Yeah, you saved me but if you’re a minute later, I’d have drowned!”
“There’s no ‘if’.” He slightly lowered his head and moved closer to her, whispering, “Do you remember the hitman who pushed you up the hill?”
Sylvia was confused by this particular question. She said with furrowed brows, “Yeah, but I didn’t see his face.”
“It was me,” he said with a grin. “After I pushed you up the hill, I went down to the lake and waited at your
possible landing spot. I’ve also arranged for several good swimmers to save you as soon as you fall into the water.”
Sylvia’s eyes widened in shock.
Thomas was the hitman who seized the knife at her neck and pushed her up the hill! He was the one who let Tara break her leg and push her into the water!
Though on second thought, it was not surprising since he had been plotting this for a while.
Madam Carter being pushed down the hill, her being pushed into the water, her second marriage with Odell, her being kidnapped by Spencer, and Carter Corporation’s crisis – everything had been his elaborate plan.
She even thought Odell had imprisoned and tortured him, and she threatened Odell with death!
Sylvia was furious and terrified. She wanted to back away from him.
Thomas saw the fear she had for him in her eyes.
He frowned and hugged her into his arms.
He hugged her trembling body and said solemnly, “ Sylvia, I did everything just because I want to be with you. I know the process might have hurt you, but I’ll make it up to you. As long as you will it, I can pluck the star from the sky for you.”
Sylvia moved her trembling lips. “I want to leave. I want to go back to Westchester City.”
