President Williams Woos His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 43

Beth was quivering, and she groaned desperately, “No!”

Karl ignored her, no matter how hard she cried. There was a tinge of scruple in his eye, but it was soon replaced by hatred.

The baseball bat was raised high and swung down. Beth knew it was useless to beg him, so she struggled frantically.

‘No, I can’t let him break my hand, otherwise, how can he face me when he knows the truth in the future?’

Because of her struggle, the bat aiming at her waist strayed and hit her shoulder instead, making a dull sound.

She made a sharp cry of pain. Her shoulder was numb. It was burning hot and painful. Her bone seemed to be broken. Her face was pale, and she frowned hard because of the sharp pain.

Karl coldly said, “You rubbish!” Seeing the bat didn’t hit her wrist, he didn’t know whether to feel upset or lucky for her. She was in such great pain now, but he didn’t feel good either.

Carina made a faint voice at this time, “Karl, just let her go. She’s my cousin. Even though she wanted to frame me, she’s still my blood kin. Though she hurt me, I’m fine now. Just forgive her.”

Beth’s eyes were scarlet. Had it not been for the pain in his shoulder, she would have clapped for Carina’s pretending skills. ‘She’s just the same as Kathy! She’s not helping, but exacerbating my situation.’

“Carina, she keeps hurting you. I won’t forgive her.” Karl said to her gently.

“They couldn’t break her hand. I’ll do it myself!” Karl exclaimed. He saw Carina as the one who had saved his life, so he treated her well. Now he was going to break Beth’s hand himself.

Beth was terrified. But Karl had taken a knife with him and walked towards her slowly. He stared at her haughtily, “Beth, you make me sick.”

‘Sick? I make him sick? I sold my blood and my kidney for him, but now I just make him sick.’ Beth’s pain in her heart was much sharper than that in her shoulder. She was unable to cry, and just tried to retrieve her hand, trembling.

But Karl stepped on her fingertips, and she froze. “How painful will it be if this knife runs through your palm?” his voice was soft, but his eyes were cruel and icy.

The silver blade reflected in her scarlet eyes. She could feel the extreme coldness. The knife was sharp. She dared not to think how painful would it be if it stabbed in her palm. Her heart broke into pieces.

“You hurt Carina, and I’ll break your hand. From now on, we won’t owe each other anything!” Karl said softly, but he looked vicious. Every word from him seemed to pierce through her body.

“No…” said Beth distractedly, sobbing, “I didn’t do it. She deserves it. She lied to you. I know I hurt you, but it wasn’t Carina who raised money for you secretly. Please trust me this time, Karl! Please!”

She couldn't move. She couldn’t approach her love. Her hand kept bleeding, leaving a smear of blood on the floor, which looked frightening.

Aaron had planned to sign their divorce papers with her, but his secretary told him she had come to look for Karl.

Hearing she had gone to find other men, Aaron left Kathy alone in the hospital and rushed out to catch Beth. He didn’t know why he had done this. He was outraged on his way here, but he had never expected to see this scene.

His eyes were darkened when he saw the knife cut through the palm of her hand, and her little face was white as paper. Aaron had no idea why he got so angry. Maybe he thought he was the only one who could hurt Beth, ‘She’s mine. My dog! How dare the others to come to hurt her?’

Karl curled his lips and snorted, “Aaron, you care about her?”

‘Care? Impossible. I hate her. She set me and Kathy apart. How would I even care about her?’

There seemed to be fire burning in Aaron’s eyes. He approached Karl step by step, “No one can bully my dog except me! Mind the owner before you beat a dog!”

Hearing such mean words, Beth’s tear rolled down even she had closed her eyes. ‘His dog. I’ve always been his dog,’ Beth felt her heart broken.
