Punished by His Love (FULL book) novel Chapter 1571

chapter 1571

The screeching noises caused by the friction between the tires and the ground had been ear -piercing, but Alex did not send any of his men after him.

Here on this land, anyone who was remotely of status had tortured Jane with the full intention of killing her, and Jane did not even say anything to protect the eighteen year-old young woman from earlier. However, she tried everything she could to protect the elderly man just now, and that was enough proof that the old man in his seventies did no harm to Jane.

Alex looked Jane in the eyes and pulled her back into his arms. "He has helped you before, has he?"

Jane sneered. "No one has helped me here in White Ocean City, Alex Poole. Taking the eighteen-year-old young lady from earlier as an example, it's true that she had given me a piece of bread before, but it was nothing but their leftovers from a few days ago. Don't read too deeply into it. No one has treated me with kindness. I simply think that if my death is inevitable, then why drag another innocent down with me?" she paused for a moment and lowered her head, and her tone became much calmer than earlier. "I saw that you intended on burying those people who had tortured me for two nights and a day alive, but I don't understand why. If I'm going to die anyways, at least let me die knowing what's going on, will you?" 1

She paused again before chuckling sarcastically at herself. "Whatever. Why am I even saying this? You wouldn't agree to what I say anyways. Do whatever you want with me. It’s all whatever."

With that said, Jane turned away and refused to look at Alex, her eyes even struggling to focus as she did.

Alex held onto her even tighter. "How can I make you believe what I'm saying, Jane? Twenty days ago, when I was leaving Bay County, I was really hoping that you and Noah would live happily ever after. I was really going to hand over all of my business to Sebastian and stay by your family of three for the rest of my life. The only thing I failed to think of was that Lily would hurt you. It's my mistake, Jane. It's my mistake and I've blamed myself ten thousand times for it. Because of my carelessness, you have suffered so much and it has even caused the man you loved most to die. Allow me to apologize to you, okay, Jane?" Alex tried to convince Jane painstakingly.

She looked at him. "You are spending all this effort in telling me these things simply to make your wife Lily happy."

Just as Alex was struggling to find a way to explain himself to Jane, Garrett suddenly called out to him from behind.

"Master Alex, you should come see this."

Alex was still holding onto Jane at the time. He could not bring himself to let go, under the impression that she was too weak to stand on her own without him holding her. He was enraged the moment Garrett called for him and turned to stare daggers at the man. " What's so important that you can't make the call??"

"Master, it's best that you come see this," Garrett insisted.

Alex could only set Jane back down and went toward Garrett alone. "You have a death wish! " he said.
