Nemesis Game novel Chapter 70

Her humble question couldn't get his answer.

After the family doctor helped Ruben apply for medicine and dressed his wound, he left the house with his assistant.

Samantha thought of leaving and beating him up.

She even wanted to yank his collar to wake him up.

However, she couldn't move her legs.

The spacious bedroom was filled with silence.

The temperature in the bedroom was set very low. She was cold, just like her blood froze all over her body.

She slowly squatted down, wrapped her arms around herself, trying to relieve the coldness.

Ruben on the bed was breathing evenly. She raised her head, and her eyes were red.

“Ruben, can you please tell me… what’s so great about Peyton? You’ve to work so hard to defend her? What made me… worse than Peyton?” Before she finished her words, her tears rolled down again.

Her heart ached when she recalled seeing the bleeding wounds on his body.

The most difficult thing to explain in life was love. She didn't think Peyton was better than her.

Peyton grew up in the Moore family. She went to college. And everything she had was the best.

So that, Peyton was noble and proud. Samantha, the real daughter of the family, grew up in exile.

She had no father. Only her mother had a hard time raising her and her brother.

She knelt on the ground and moved to him, and then she grabbed his arm tightly. She wanted to pierce his wounds and let him experience the pain she was suffering.

When she saw his pale face, she just couldn't do it.

She let go of his arm finally. Her fingers were stroking his face.

Her eyes began to ache, "You said Peyton's writing looked good. I tried my best to learn it. I just wish you can praise me, but you didn't even look at it. You tore up my paper."

"I knew I couldn't compete with Peyton. She lived comfortably in the Moore family. She also enjoyed all the favors of you all. But I can only go to collect scraps to raise tuition fees with my brother. My hands and feet were frozen. And I’ve to be beaten on the ground just for one or two empty bottles. How do you make me be the same as her?!"

Did she feel aggravate, resentful and angry?

Of course, she was!

She was the one who should have it all. She had suffered so much and thought her suffering had been over.

But what she had got from the Moore family? Biological parents’ contempt and dislike, Peyton’s frame-up, and Caelan’s bullying!

She was an outsider in the Moore family.

Even a dog lived with more dignity than her.

“She took over my identity and my brother. You all feel sad and care for her… but have you thought about me? You aren’t what she gave up to me. You should belong to me.” she sobbed. Her emotions seem to be crumbling these days.

She had just recovered from her past. But Ruben would always touch her wound again.

She had to repeat this kind of pain all the time.

It was given by him to her.

The room was still quiet. Ruben wouldn't answer her.

It was known that he was unconscious that she dared to cry so recklessly.

She once thought her tears were dried up, but her fleshly heart was still feeling hurt!

In order not to owe her anything, he paid her back for the grievance she once suffered in the Moore family by beating himself up.

This was not enough.

Far from enough!

The more he tried to defend Peyton, the more she hated Peyton.
