Chapter 100 Kelly Has Gone Mad

Eric’s gaze toward Kelly sent an unexpected chill down his spine. His hand, which had been raised, froze in midair, unwilling to strike.

At that moment, if Eric truly dared to hit Kelly, she was ready to go mad and strike back without hesitation.

“Kelly, you’ve really become irredeemable!” Eric lowered his hand, his anger flaring as he stared at her. “How did you end up like this?”

Kelly laughed bitterly. “How did I end up like this? Isn’t it all your fault?”

Her words were still stammering, but at least she could speak now.

Eric turned his eyes away. “I know sending you to the mental institution was my mistake, but take a look at yourself. Either you’re holding a vase or a kitchen knife didn’t I send you there for your own good?”

Kelly gave a small smile and sank into the sofa. “Is that so?”

Eric didn’t argue further. Instead, he inspected every room in the house. Aside from Faye’s room, which was now empty, Dawn’s room was intact, but the bedding had been thrown out.

“Kelly, we need to talk,” Eric said, instructing his mother to take Faye to another room.

Faye was too frightened to cry. She is simply staring at Kelly in fear.

Kelly leaned against the couch, watching Eric silently.

“I’m glad you’re back. We can live a good life now. Please sign the agreement to release Regina as soon as you can. You saw for yourself that the hospital is full of Beau’s people. I want to protect you, but I can only do so much. We can’t mess up with them, but we can avoid trouble, but I need you to sign the release paper, so when she gets out, she can take Faye. We can still have our own children in future.” Eric knelt down beside her, his voice soft with persuasion.

Kelly looked down at him from above, the kitchen knife in her hand striking the couch with each measured swing.

If she had any remaining hope for Eric before, now all she felt was disgust–nausea, a deep physical

revulsion.

“Eric, do you even know what Solmaris was like?” Kelly asked, lifting her eyes to look at the ceiling.

If it hadn’t been for Zev, she would have been dead by now.

She thought coming back home would be safer than being in Solmaris, that at least she could sleep peacefully.

But her husband, whom she thought about every day, sent her to the mental institution.

“I know you suffered a lot in Solmaris, but these past years in Seaville haven’t been almost died the year you got into trouble,” Eric said, his eyes red with emotion.

Unfortunately, that love had been too shallow, its duration too brief.

“Sure enough, you should never expect anyone to truly empathize with you,” Kelly said bitterly, laughing as she stared at the ceiling. Tears uncontrollably streamed down her face. “A knife, it only hurts when it’s cut in your own body.”

Eric furrowed his brows. “Kelly, I really didn’t know about what happened in the mental institution; you have to believe me.”

Kelly lifted her foot, staring at the two toes tightly wrapped in bandages. “I had to break two of my toes just to get emergency care. If I hadn’t saved myself, I’d probably be nothing but a walking corpse now, trapped in there for the rest of my life.”

She leaned forward, placing the knife against Eric’s neck. “I never imagined my worst nightmare would come from you.”

Five years in Solmaris, and aside from the moment Michael died before her eyes, the most terrifying and hopeless experience she had was waking up in that mental institution.

Eric’s expression turned wary as he watched Kelly, his unease growing. “Put the knife down; it’s too dangerous to hold it like that!”

Kelly studied him carefully, as if trying to see through him.

Her parents had once told her that you could know a person’s face but never their heart. She had never understood the cruelty of the human heart, and she had been certain that Eric would never be the kind of man to betray true love.

Now, she realized just how wrong she had been.

“Get some rest.” As Kelly was lost in thought, Eric cautiously pushed the knife away from her and stood, backing away.

When Kelly didn’t react further, Eric let out a quiet sigh of relief. “Get some rest. I’ll sleep in the guest room tonight, and Mom will stay with Faye. I’m exhausted. We’ll talk more about the release papers

tomorrow.”
