You Owe Me, My Love novel Chapter 360

Chapter 360 Let Go Of The Past

“I’m telling you not to save her! She’s a murderer! Five years ago, these two vicious sisters plotted the death of Michael!” Casey cried, staring daggers at Lisa.

Casey’s outburst seemed to have triggered something within Lisa, and she could no longer keep her composure. Her pupils dilated, and she began panting profusely.

“Nian! The blood. The blood! She’s too agitated. The bleeding can’t be stopped!” Liu Yan said.

“Lisa, calm down. You need to calm down.” Wu Nian turned back to look at Lisa.

It would be almost impossible to help her sew up her wound with her being so emotionally unstable and without the help of professional equipment.

Lisa let her emotions get the better of her. Her body began twitching uncontrollably for another three seconds before her entire body fell limply to the ground, with her eyes still wide open. Eventually, she stopped breathing.

Liu Yan and Wu Nian looked at each other, and the entire room turned silent. “Stephen, she’s… she’s dead,” Wu Nian said to Stephen with a pained expression on her face.

Stephen stumbled a few steps back, with his bloodshot eyes fixated on Casey. “What did you just say? My two daughters murdered my son five years ago? How did you know about it? Who are you?”

“I was Michael’s girlfriend five years ago. At that time, he had already proposed to me. I had always thought that he drowned in an unfortunate incident. For the past few years, I have never stopped dreaming of him. He would come to me, all bloody in my dreams!”

Casey wiped a tear from her eyes.

“Three years ago, Lisa visited the massage parlor I worked at. After finding out that she was Michael’s sister, I treated her well. I let her enjoy the services free of charge and even introduced her to men she might be interested in. Even after she hurt my friend, I continued to help her in various ways, simply because she is Michael’s sister.” Feeling all the painful memories stirring up within her heart, Casey gulped and paused for a moment.

“But this morning, I overheard her conversation with her sister. As it turns out, those monsters murdered Michael together, fearing that you would give him part of the inheritance. Ollie must have deliberately provoked Michael such that he would go surfing further into the oceans. Before he left, Lisa drugged him with a spiked beer. Just as they had planned, Michael ultimately drowned in the treacherous oceans, and his body had already begun to rot when we found it floating on the waters!” Casey sobbed.

“But that’s all in the past, isn’t it. Now that I have sought revenge against those devils, it’s time for me to keep him company in heaven.”

Without any warning, Casey threw herself toward the wall.

However, she had underestimated Gu Mingchen’s strength. Even though she was somewhat trained for combat, she could not escape his grip and could only struggle like a lunatic.

Standing up, Wu Nian said solemnly, “I know that you’re all about taking revenge, but have you ever tried thinking about what Michael would really want? Even if you kill yourself like this, Michael wouldn’t necessarily want to see you.”

“What do you even mean?” Wu Nian demanded.

“Michael proposed to you because he loved you. He would want you to live a happy, peaceful life, and yet, you’ve strayed too far on the path of revenge. As you probably know, Michael is Stephen’s only son. Taking care of his old father was his responsibility. And now, you’ve killed the two remaining family members who could have continued to take care of Stephen.” Wu Nian made every word she said crisp and clear.

“No… Those two witches wouldn’t have taken care of Stephen anyways! They came today thinking that Stephen would be splitting the inheritance between them. When they talked about who would live with Stephen in the future, both of them simply rambled on and on about how living with an old weirdo would be a nightmare! Those ungrateful witches don’t deserve to live!” Casey howled.

“And how about you? You’ve just killed two people. Ending your life now would be the easy way out, but death will not cleanse you of your sins. If you feel so strongly about committing suicide, use that energy to give back to society. If Michael were still alive, he wouldn’t want you to die like this.” Wu Nian’s voice was cold, but her words had an inherent sense of warmth to them.

Casey pursed her lips and seemed to have calmed down a little. “I… I don’t know what to do anymore.”

“I think you do. Don’t become someone like Lisa and Ollie. You can do better. Start by admitting your own mistakes,” Wu Nian said firmly.

“Mr. Gu, here’s the rope.” Xia He appeared abruptly and handed a rope to Gu Mingchen.

Gu Mingchen skilfully tied Casey up.

Sniffling a little, Casey said, “The methods I used were almost exactly the same as what Ms. Wu described. As for the missing steamship, I stole Stephen’s phone and sent the crewmen a text to pick someone up. No one’s waiting for them, so they’ll probably return by tomorrow morning.”

Wu Nian walked up even closer to Casey. Wiping her tears and snot gently, she said, “The dead cannot come back to life. You’ve done all of this for the sake of Michael in return for his love for you, but in reality, he would have wanted you to live a happy life. There’s no point in dwelling on the past.”
