Secretary’s Secret Lover by Zayla Quinn novel Chapter 270

Chapter 270 I’ll Repay My Life to You

“Are you happy now?” The sentence echoed and made it difficult for Jamie to breathe.

Jamie thought, am I happy now since the Robbins family has such a miserable ending?

Not at all.

In fact, it’s quite the opposite.

I didn’t want Chris to die at all since I knew, once Chris died, I couldn’t use Chris to control Ellen anymore.

His head was buzzing, which made it difficult for him to think.

He still couldn’t believe that Chris would commit suicide and jump off a building.

Why? Was it just for the debt?

As long as Ellen complied and gave birth to a child for him, he would definitely pay off the debt for the Robbins family.

“You promised me to destroy that contract. I can’t believe you failed to keep your word. Worse still, you used the contract to threaten him.”

“Jamie, you treacherous villain!”

Ellen roared, making her throat even more hoarse and unpleasant to hear.

Jamie’s pupils shrank when he heard this.

It was true that he only destroyed a copy of that contract which had a loophole in it since he wanted to leave a way out. But the

original contract had been locked in the safe at home. How could it be….

Jamie wanted to tell Ellen that he was not happy and that he did not use the contract to threaten Chris.

However, he could not say it since the contract did come from him.

That meant he was partly to blame.

Her eyes scarlet, Ellen said in a trembling voice, “I was tortured for a whole day and night in the Correctional Center just for that contract and even lost a child because of this. Isn’t that enough?

“Jamie, have you really not conducted a paternity test about that child? It was your child! I think that alone is sufficient to make up for you!”

At the mention of the child, Jamie felt a bit bitter.

He thought, it was enough. How could it not be?

That was also why I wanted another child after the child was gone. That way, I could still keep in touch with her.

Ellen sobbed, “Are you sure you want to corner my whole family?”

Jamie’s handsome face turned pale like a sheet of paper. He said with difficulty, “No…”

But before he could finish speaking, Ellen roared in despair suddenly, “Ah… Why can’t you let my dad go? Why…”

What Jamie wanted from her was not just to kill her, but to pull her soul out and beat it to death as well.

She clutched her chest tightly while punching it again and again. But even so, her heart still ached.

Her heart was just too painful!

She felt like she had fallen into a deep pool of ice, the bone–chilling coldness making her tremble.

After the crowd was dispersed, the gate where Chris landed was reduced to silence.

Other than the pitter–patter of the rain, one could only hear the sound of Ellen crying.

The crying suggested an overwhelming sense of loss and made people feel heartbroken.

“Ellen…”

Jamie called out her name softly. He felt careful, frightened, and nervous all at the same time as if he was afraid that his voice might shatter her whole world.

That was because Ellen looked so fragile right now. Even her beautiful and seductive eyes were left with nothing but redness

and blankness.

The redness was because of blood, and the blankness was due to hopelessness.

Jamie looked into her eyes for a long time, which made his heart ache all at once.

He then told her, “I wasn’t the one who provided the contract. Like you, I am at a loss about what has happened. Please wait for a while. I will definitely give you an explanation after I figure out what happened. Is that okay?”

But Ellen burst out into laughter, which sounded bitter and desolate.

“An explanation?

“Jamie, I don’t dare to accept your explanation! Last time, Cody had people torture me in the Correctional Center. You asked me to wait for your explanation as well. But look at what happened to me.

“While I was waiting, I suffered from all kinds of humiliation. Now my father has passed away, and yet I’m still waiting!”

Ellen thought, that’s his way of explaining. It’s gut–wrenching beyond measure.

I will never believe his words.

The pain in Jamie’s chest continued. Due to that, he could hardly breathe.

Meanwhile, Ellen didn’t expect him to give her an explanation at all. Instead, she looked up at the overcast sky above her and felt completely hopeless.

There was a muffled sound.

In a split second, Jamie stiffened, and his mind went blank for a few seconds.

He squeezed her shoulder and shouted harshly, “You’re crazy!”

Ellen opened her mouth wide and gasped for breath, thinking, how useless of me! Even when I am committing suicide, I lack

the strength to do so.

The blood on her forehead flowed down her cheek, reddening all of it and making her look beautiful in a rather strange way.

Jamie found the scene shocking, sharp, and unforgettable.

Seemingly out of her senses, Ellen muttered nonstop, “Jamie, now I’m repaying you. I’m repaying you. I’ll repay my life to

Jamie’s heart jolted, with cold sweat breaking out. Then he said coldly, “Ellen, don’t think about doing anything stupid! Don’t forget that you still have a mother. If you die, how miserable will your mother end up? Have you thought about it?”

Jamie thought, I am no different from a beast to her anyway. As long as she has the will to live, I don’t mind acting beastly!

As long as she still had a relative, he would not let her off.
