Chapter 125

Chapter 125

Hathaway was locked in her room for the entire night.

With bodyguards taking shifts outside her door, there was no way she could escape

It wasn’t until the next afternoon, after Edmund woke up and Jeremiah had gone home to change, that he finally had a moment to see her.

When he pushed the door open, Hathaway had already eaten and was sitting quietly inside, her expression indifferent.

Jeremiah stopped in front of her, his voice flat. “Tell me. What exactly do you have against me? Against Jessica

“If you wanted to go after the Kingsley family, why did you have to do it on the day of my engagement party? Was it really that urgent for you? Did you really have to cause such a mess in front of my family?

“Did the Blackwood family ever do anything to offend you? My grandfather and my brother both liked you so much, but you went and made my grandfather look so bad.”

At that, Jeremiah’s jaw tightened, his expression turning cold and menacing. He leaned in, clamped his hand around her neck, forcing her to look up at him, their eyes meeting. “Talk.”

It had been almost three years since Hathaway time–travelled, and Jeremiah had spoken more to her today than he had in all those years combined.

“Is it because you still have feelings for me?” Jeremiah murmured, his fingers brushing over her soft cheek. He couldn’t help but think, T’m really being patient with her.”

Victor stood behind Jeremiah, watching as Hathaway didn’t blink. “There’s nothing to talk about. I can’t stand you and Jessica.

“You two are nothing but cheating scum, and honestly, seeing you both embarrassed is the best thing ever?

Jeremiah’s face turned completely cold, his gaze icy enough to make her shiver

“Me, an adulterer?” Jeremiah let out a cold, mocking laugh, a sinister glint flickering in his eyes

Suddenly, an idea flashed across Jeremiah’s mind. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a pill. “Maybe I should show you what being dirty really means.”

Hathaway’s heart raced in panic, but Jeremiah grabbed her chin and shoved the pill into ber mouth.

She desperately tried to spit it out, only managing to get rid of hall, crushed between her teeth Jeremith forced her to swallow the half by tilting her chin up,

Hathaway weyes widened. “What did you do to me?

Jeremiah said, “That pill? belonged to those garys on the yacht 1 picked it up when) took care of them.

Looks like it’s right for you now.”

Hathaway went limp in his arms, humiliation written all over her eyes.

TII leave a bodyguard with you,” Jeremiah said, patting her cheek.

He’d only meant to scare her, and seeing her look like she’d rather be dead than alive was enough for him to call it even.

Hathaway was trembling, clutching his sleeve in desperation. Her voice was sharp with fury. Jeremiah! You actually drugged me? That’s the lowest thing anyone could do! You’ll never have peace for the rest of your lifel

Jeremiah peeled her fingers off his sleeve with icy indifference and walked out without looking back.

As soon as his grip left her, Hathaway’s legs gave out, and she nearly collapsed. The bodyguard behind her quickly stepped forward, catching her before she hit the ground.

Hathaway didn’t have the strength to fight back anymore. “Jeremiah, may your bloodline end with you! May you be forever alone, with no one by your side!

“I curse you to never know peace, not in your final moments!”

Victor thought Hathaway’s curses were seriously filthy.

He locked the door behind him and followed Jeremiah out.

Jeremiah was about to head to work and really didn’t have time to mess around.

Victor followed him to the door. He had to drive Jeremiah to the office.

As they reached the door, Victor nearly stepped on Jeremiah’s heel. Jeremiah paused at the doorway, pulled out a pack of cigarettes, and asked, “Why is it so quiet?”

Victor hesitated for a moment, then glanced back at the tightly closed door.

Honestly, he had no clue either.

Victor smick a glance at his boss. ‘No way the boss actually wants to hear Hathaway cursing him out again, right? That can’t be it.

Jeremiah lit a cigarette. After those first few curses she threw at him, it really had gone completely quiet in there

At that moment, Hathaway’s cheeks were burning as she rested her chin in her hand and asked the bodyguard left behinil, her voice soft. “Do you have a girlfriend?”

The bodyguard let out an awkward exclamation.

If you’re taken, senel

eone single, Hathaway said

Chapter 125

From her fierce resistance at first to suddenly being so calm about it, the bodyguard couldn’t help but wonder if Hathaway had gone a little crazy for a moment.

Hathaway’s vision started to blur. Seeing he didn’t object, she beckoned him over with a sultry gesture. You’ll do.

She wasn’t a blushing maiden anymore, so Hathaway stumbled over to the bodygizard and collapsed into his arms, her hands clumsily tugging at his suit jacket.

“It’s fine. I already saw this coming. I’m not scared anymore,” she murmured.

She knew she was doomed to repeat the same path as her previous life. Maybe there’d be a few minor changes along the way, but in the end, it would all turn out more or less the same.

In her previous life, he tossed her to Lucas. This time, it was the bodyguard. Whoever happened to be nearby that’s who he’d throw her to.

So be it, Hathaway thought. ‘Guess I’ll accept my fate. It’s not like I’m some innocent girl anymore.

The bodyguard couldn’t make sense of her mumbled words. All he saw was Hathaway, clearly out of it, reaching for his clothes.

His face went stiff, and he quickly grabbed her restless hands, his voice tight with anxiety. “Ms. Whitmore, please, calm down.”

Hathaway’s cheeks were burning, her breathing was erratic and rapid, and her whole body felt limp and powerless. She whimpered timidly, barely audible, T’m scared. It’ll hurt. Please, be gentle.”

Hearing that, the bodyguard suddenly stiffened, feeling a rush of heat flood his body. He was rooted to the spot, completely clueless about what to do.

Hathaway’s body went completely weak, her arms wrapped around the bodyguard’s neck as she leaned in for

a kiss.

The drug was so strong that Jeremiah, with all his self–control, nearly lost it, so for a girl like Hathaway, who had no defenses, it was worse.

Even with half a pill, it was enough to leave her completely overwhelmed by desire.

The door was thrown open, and Jeremiah caught sight of the scene in an instant. The cigarette slipped from his fingers and hit the floor with a soft snap.

He strode forward, smothered Hathaway’s mouth with his hand, and landed a brutal punch right on the bodyguard’s face

“M–Mr. Blackwood, I swear, I didn’t do anything!” the bodyguard stammered, sprawled on the flour with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, frantically raising his hands in panic

Jerentish shot a look of disgust at the bodyguard’s lower half, then ooped up the feverish Flathaway in lus arms. He turned to Victor and said. “Drag him out and call a doctor.

Victor didn’t dare say a word. He nodded and quickly left.

It seemed Jeremiah was going to spare Hathaway this time.

Hathaway was completely out of it, having no idea the person holding her had changed. Her arms stayed wrapped around Jeremiah’s neck, her body burning up, soft and needy. She let out a needy whimper. leaning in for a kiss.

In the next moment, Jeremiah flipped her onto the bed in one swift motion.
