Please Love Me, Mr. George novel Chapter 248

See? Everything seemed to have been arranged in advance. I was in a mood to kill, and Dennis came in and saw me stab Olivia exactly.

A pool of blinding red blood was slowly discoloring beneath Olivia, the knife still in her stomach.

Dennis put his arm around her and looked at Nanny Daisy with a ghastly look on her face. “Call the doctor now!" he said.

I looked at them, distracted. I didn’t think it was so scary. At that moment, I thought Olivia had to die. If she did, my world would be at peace.

Dennis picked her up and looked at me with his dark, cold eyes. His thin lips were pressed together to show no emotion.

Our eyes met, but they were all cold.

I suddenly felt like laughing. I wanted to laugh, but I couldn’t seem to. Watching myself grin, I was filled with joy, not fear.

He looked at me, his handsome face full of cold, extremely cold. His frown conveyed anger, rebuke and indifference.

Looking into his eyes, I felt as if a knife was slowly cutting into my heart. Every time the knife went in, the pain spread, and I could hardly breathe.

I took a breath and sank to the ground as he carried Olivia out of the villa.

“Clara!” Nanny Daisy grabbed me and looked at me worriedly and said, “Don't be afraid, it’s all right, it’s all right!”

I shook my head. I wasn’t worried about Olivia at all. It was Dennis I was worried about. Olivia was right. Whenever anything happens to Olivia, Dennis worried and cared for her more than I could imagine.”

He couldn’t let her go. He just couldn’t.

Looking at Nanny Daisy, I choked up and said, “It hurts in here!”

She put her arms around me, lifted me up and sat me down on the sofa.

There was a siren outside, which was very loud. A shrill alarm resounded through the quiet villa area.

With the alarm ringing, Yara came in, still in her nightgown, her eyes on my bloody hands.

She took a slight breath and said reproachfully, “There’s a price to pay for killing. Even if you hate her so much, there’s no need to do it so blatantly. The Lewis family will never let you go.”

I pressed my lips together, my mood slowly levelled, and I said nothing.

It was not that Dennis didn’t love Olivia. How could he just let go of all those years of companionship? He was pretending so well, transferring responsibility and guilt to me into love, that he shifted his kindness to Olivia onto me.

I took his duplicated kindness as his love for me. It never occurred to me that if anything went wrong, Dennis would pick Olivia over me for no reason.

Seeing my silence, Yara knew I couldn't hear what she was saying, so she sighed a little, went into the bedroom, changed her clothes and left.

Nanny Daisy was with me when I stood there for a long time. She stopped me as I went out, and said anxiously, “Clara, where are you going?”

“To the hospital.”

She stopped me quickly. “Don’t go now. Mr. George and the Lewis family are probably angry now, and it won’t do you any good. Okay, just stay home, and we’ll deal with this when everyone cools down, okay?”

I sat on the sofa and buried my face in my palms, my heart and head aching. The villa became unusually quiet.

What followed was endless confusion and bewilderment.

After a long time, footsteps could be heard in the villa and Nanny Daisy’s voice could be heard, too, “Dr. Bennett, why aren’t you at the hospital?”

I was surrounded by a huge shadow. A little annoyed, I looked up and saw Mario’s long body standing in front of me, cold and distant.
