Chapter 1571
The moment Stella saw Eric, she reacted first. She pushed Henry away and said, “You need to go!”
Stella was afraid that Eric would harm Henry. She grabbed Henry’s arm and pushed him onto the speedboat. After all, Eric had a gun, and who knew if that lu natic would shoot Henry again…
Henry didn’t want to be a coward. He stood tall in front of Eric and tightly held Stella’s hand in his palm.
Eric’s obscure gaze fell on their intertwined fingers. He used to not understand the uncomfortable feeling it represented, but now he
knew all too well.
So, he had been jealous for a long time. If he had known earlier, would they not have reached this point today…
Eric slowly moved his gaze away, past Henry, and onto Stella’s
pale face. “We agreed on one month, and it’s only been one day…”
He used the gun in his hand to lift Stella’s chin. “Are you so eager to leave me?”
Henry pulled Stella away and stood in front of her. “Don’t bully
women!”
Eric completely disregarded Henry and heard his nagging voice. Only then did he move his gaze away from Stella’s face and look at Henry. “Do you want me to deal with you?”
Eric raised the gun in his hand and hit Henry’s temple. With one punch, Henry’s body went limp.
Seeing Henry fall into the water, Stella hurriedly went to help him. Her anxious and panicked state was seen as ironic by Eric.
He also crouched down and grabbed Stella’s hair, forcing her to look at him. “I just asked you a question, and you haven’t answered me yet.”
Stella originally wanted to continue arguing with him, but seeing the unconscious Henry, anger surged within her. “Yes, I can’t wait to leave you. I don’t want to be with you for even a second. You make me sick, so sick!”
The man crouching in the water gradually stiffened, and his blood ran cold. As the despair in his heart grew, he suddenly laughed coldly. “You feel disgusted with me, but you’re happy with Henry, right?”
His malicious gaze slowly shifted to the man Stella was carefully holding in her arms. He had never felt such jealousy before, and it suddenly erupted from the depths of his heart, making him seem like a devil from hell.
Under the bright moonlight, amidst the surging waves, Eric grabbed Henry by the collar and lifted him directly from Stella’s embrace. He then dragged Henry towards the deep sea.
Stella hurriedly followed, but the waves crashed down and the sand beneath her feet retreated. As she struggled to catch up, Eric had already thrown Henry into the sea.
Watching the rolling waves instantly swallow Henry, Stella was frightened. Without any hesitation, she jumped in as well.
Her actions undoubtedly stimulated Eric even more. He aimed the gun in his hand at Henry several times, but each time he saw the figure desperately trying to save him, he clenched his teeth and held back…
In the end, this lun atic threw away the gun in his hand and jumped into the water. He pulled the exhausted Stella out and, seeing that she refused to let go of Henry’s clothes, Eric, despite his anger, freed up one hand and grabbed Henry’s collar. He then carried both of them back…
At the moment they reached the shore, Eric collapsed tiredly on the beach, while Stella didn’t even look at him once. She was only extremely worried and checked Henry’s body from head to toe.
Henry was lucky because being unconscious allowed his body to float. So he didn’t choke on water, but being unconscious for a long time was also not good for a person.
When Stella pinched Henry’s acupoint, trying to wake him up, Eric grabbed her wrist. “Are you only worried about him?”
Stella scoffed coldly. “I’m not worried about him. Are you worried
about him?”
Eric’s finger paused, and then he tightened his grip. “Since you’re so worried about him, you probably wouldn’t mind if I make him suffer a little more, right?”
Stella, dripping wet, heard this and her already pale face became even more grim. “What are you going to do?!”
Eric didn’t answer Stella. He just grabbed Henry’s collar again and dragged him towards the mansion.
“What are you planning to do?”
Stella hurriedly caught up and stopped Eric, grabbing his hand
and begging him.
“If you’re angry, take it out on me. Don’t hurt him, I’m begging
you…”
Looking at Stella, who was pleading for Henry but being cold
towards him, Eric felt his bleeding heart sink even lower…
With a cold face and no expression, he shook off Stella’s hand
and then pulled Henry, quickly walking towards the living room
and then up the stairs to the top floor.
Stella followed behind, afraid that Eric would kill Henry in a fit of anger. She didn’t dare to breathe and could only anxiously follow
him.
