Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 77

"Antonio, listen..."

Antonio held her hand tighter and tighter. It hurt. Adelaide exclaimed, "It hurts, Antonio!"

Ignoring her yells, he continued to push her to the corner. The strength he held her hand increased a little bit. Adelaide endured the pain. She looked up at him stubbornly. Her eyes fixed on Antonio's furious eyes, "Antonio! Listen to me explain."

Antonio's other hand was clenched into a fist. He could not hear what Adelaide was speaking. His mind was full of her saying that she liked Channing. Anger would really make a person lose his mind.

He was like this now.

Adelaide watched his fist going towards her. She could only close her eyes. After a few heartbeats, she slowly opened her eyes. His fist hit on the wall next to her face.

She was stunned. Antonio held Adelaide into his arms tightly to vent his anger, declaring, "You are mine. You can only be mine."

Adelaide nodded, "I’m yours. I’m yours for the rest of my life." Seeing him finally calm down, Adelaide was thinking how to explain what she said just now, and her purpose of coming to see Clarissa.

At this time, the doctor came out from inside. He took off his mask, and reprimanded Antonio without asking what was going on, "You’re her husband? She has the hemorrhage again in just half a year? If such a thing happens again, the child will die!"

After thinking for a while, Antonio nodded in relief, "Then just let it go!"

The thing between him and Clarissa was originally a mistake. He wanted to make Adelaide jealous. He liked Adelaide, but he also felt bad about himself. When he was in school, he liked her innocent and smiling face. He couldn’t understand why she was always happy.

He was afraid that Adelaide did not like him and did not understand his thoughts. He couldn’t say some sweet words like Jerry. At that time, a girl said that she liked him. She also had an innocent and bright smile like Adelaide. He was very jealous and envious.

The more Antonio couldn’t get Adelaide, the more he wanted to get her. Finally, he couldn’t control his emotions. He agreed to the girl's request. It was also his first love. But one day, Jerry told him that that girl fell in love with others! He couldn't believe it. At that intersection, he saw the smile face again. The girl smiled so brightly.

However, her smile belonged to someone else’s. She was holding someone else’s hand. Her laughing, shy expression, angry expression, pouting, her all sweet belonged to others now. She just fooled around with him.

He tried to practice smile in the mirror countless times, until the muscles on his face cramped. He couldn't still smile so bright like Adelaide!

The more he loved her, the more he couldn’t say it out!

"I love you!" The three words were like a stone in his throat. No matter what changes he had made, he couldn’t still say the three words out. So he learned to express his love in another way.

He married Adelaide. That black Monday made him discover that Adelaide’s bright smile was also fake!

His elder brother was dead. He didn’t believe it was her who killed his elder brother. He drank all day and night, trying to drown his sorrows in wine. She was the murderer of his elder brother. She couldn’t just go to prison. So he got married with her to torture her.

Antonio was delighted with his clever decision. He did not dig deep into the root why he didn’t want her to go to jail. He tortured himself and admonished himself that the woman was the murderer. But meanwhile, he fell in love with her desperately.
